This is based on a discussion that was had amongst a few players in Discord and some subsequent testing IG. Similar to the way that the bird forms have access to the climb tool, some of the forms would benefit from having access to the dig tool. For example, the Badger form would make sense, potentially some others.

The area below trash island that is accessible via the hatch is hemmed in by shipwrecks. It looks like you should be able to swim between them but you can't. Not sure if this is a bug or by design but it would be nice to be able to swim past that area for a few reasons.

Thanks

This is an interesting one. I am currently playing a Bard with the Spellsinger perk as IxTheSpeedy.

When I try and enhance the leather armor that I purchased from the Webber Elf selling custom leathers I am encountering issues.

1. I purchased the armor from said Elf so that shouldn't be an issue.
2. I am placing the leather armor on the work table.
3.  I am able to select the enhancement, in this case I was choosing Perform mkII to add as the first enhancement.
4. I am quoted the price and I agree
5. It says that the enhancement has been applied but nothing happens. No gold is taken nor is the enhancement applied.

After asking around it seems that others have gotten this to work so I am assuming that this is happening because the bard perk provides a temporary -15% arcane spell failure as a semi-permanent enchantment on any armor I am wearing. Since this can't be "turned off" I figured I would post a bug as I don't expect that this is intentional.

I can put together a screenshot if needed.

Thanks

Just wanted to give some positive feedback on this change. I think that it's quite simply very fun. It adds an interesting element of light magic to playing a caster without unbalancing things. I'm currently playing a bard so I suppose I don't get to use the really flavorful stuff like casting offensive cantrips instead of carrying around a crossbow but I give this change two big thumbs up.

Thanks to the DMs for trying out tweaking little things like this lately.

She says that she is going to give you a grapple gun to go and get the eggs but she actually gives you a potion of cure minor wounds.

This was in ring 100.

I have found over the years playing in EFU that my favorite runs are when I have a good, reliable crew to quest and RP with (pretty obvious I suppose...). A group that has each others back, shares supplies, etc, etc, all the good stuff. However, for a while now, I haven't had time to be able to get IG and get involved in plots as much as I used to.


Soooooo, I had an idea.


I'd like to start a group of adventurers, let's call it an adventurers guild, it will be a loose group. The only thing will be that I ask for no throw away characters and please be in a position to play once a week with us. I'm hoping that we can get together as a group, quest a bit, RP a bit, generally just have a good time playing. You can still play the PC otherwise but it would make sense if we were all similar levels, at least at first, so I'm expecting that people in a similar situation as me, time constrained, would be the ideal candidate to join us.


A few things:



       
  • I play EST evenings most of the time. No offense to those that don't but hey, it's my idea...
  • I'm not wedded to evil or good at this point. Let's discuss and see.
  • I'm open to all starting together or just meeting up IG a hair later.
  • This is supposed to be fun, a nice thing to look forward to and plan around.


That's it. Respond here or PM me if you're interested in joining. I'm happy to do the coordinating.


Incidentally, I'm currently leaning towards playing a Sorcerer... 


Happy gaming.

General Discussion / NWN on Mac OS High Sierra
November 27, 2017, 01:00:40 AM
Anybody else not able to launch NWN after the upgrade?  I've found a few things on it such as:

https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/wine-and-high-sierra.2062894/

But personally I can't even launch it to the point of being about to set the screen options. Wondering if anybody else ran into this problem and if so, have you fixed it?  What did you do?  etc.

Thanks!

Yesterday while questing with a group we took the lift back up to the mound and my character was left behind visually, I never transitioned. I got the messages that we had gotten on the lift and that we arrived but I never transitioned onto the lift. I did however transition with the rest of the group when we arrived at the mound so it was just a visual transition bug.

I was basically one PC away from the dialog initiator statue thing. Meaning that there was someone standing in front of me so I was not right next to it.

Thanks!

Off-topic Discussion / Happy Thanksgiving EFU!
November 24, 2016, 07:11:25 PM
To my fellow US residing EFU'ers, happy thanksgiving!

I'm very grateful to have been able to hang with you all over the last years.  I checked my account creation date recently and well, it's been a while.  Good times all around.  Even that perma-death thing that happened during a DM quest back on Ymph...  Ahem.  I digress.  So, thanks for being involved, thanks to the DMs for rocking amazing story lines and putting up with my forum requests, thanks to my fellow players for amazing RP and storytelling.  

Thanks

Recently Abjurer's nightshade and various foodstuffs were added to Maughe's "shop" (which is great and very much appreciated) but they are currently being sold for gold not for favor points. I'm assuming this was an oversight and not on purpose.
 
#11
Just like the topic says. Druids end up spending most of their gold on Abjurer's Nightshade since we don't have many warded places to prepare and we always end up doing so multiple times per session. Just seems logical that Maughe would have it.

Bug Reports / Beast FE for Ranger
December 16, 2014, 04:48:52 AM
Here's an interesting one. When summoning your faithful companion, because you then automatically cast "Awaken" on said companion, you can summon magic eaters when doing so. I feel like this shouldn't happen...

Also, Maughe basically brings the cave down on your head if you do so in his cave....

Just wanted to wish everyone a wonderous new year.  May your lives in the coming year be inspired and creative.  If you are setting resolutions then I encourage you to be aggressive and go large.  Best of luck to you all in achieving them.

Rock out my EFU brothers and sisters.  Rock out.

Bug Reports / Squire perk but at level 5
November 24, 2013, 03:10:48 AM
Turned level 5 with the Squire perk but my PC doesn't have Disarm.  I re-logged just to check.

Account is IxTheSpeedy and PC name is Peter Gainsford.

Thanks!

Hey folks, just tried to run the launcher for the first time and got this:

"The program can't start because MSVCP100.dll is missing from your computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."

I think that the DLL mentioned is part of the Visual C++ re-distributable but I shouldn't have to install that manually, no?

NWN runs just fine on its own.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Anybody have a good low profile video card they would recommend?  I've had mixed results with newegg as a number of their cards say low profile but actually aren't.  I've got a small desktop that I'm looking to upgrade the graphics on.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Bug Reports / Stewards Forum Access not working
August 08, 2012, 05:10:18 PM
All of a sudden I can't post in the Stewards of the Ark forum.  It says I don't have permissions.  I can see the forum but can't access posts or make a posting.

I'm on Firefox 14.0.1 on Windows XP

Not sure if it's just me or this is something going on overall.

Thanks!

Hey folks, anybody now having an issue with graphics playing NWN after a recent Windows 7 update?  All of a sudden when I launch NWN it says something like "reverting to Windows basic color scheme" and when I log into EFU everything is choppy and slow in general.  I basically can't do anything that would involve combat or it would likely be a disaster.

Wondering if anybody has encountered this and determined a work-around.  I have of course tried the old "reduce all your video options" stuff IG and it didn't help.  

Thanks!

Not sure if this is a bug or not but you definitely can lose a level from XP loss after drinking a "Distilled essence of Sylvan Root" or the like.  I know it's not supposed to happen to priests that cast remove curse, not sure if it's supposed to happen when you drink the potion.
