I don't get the removal of the ability for small races.  They already have a disadvantage of being KDed because of size yet lose any advantage being small like an ac bonus or ab bonus.  You can also only use small weapons further lessening damage given and max a medium weapon two handed.

Since people play 20 dex halfling all small races / build should be yoinked?  You already have -2str making you less than other races for any class except a 20 dex halfling.

I think it should be reversed and if the concern is people jacking up one stat to the max maybe there are other ways to address it?

Greetings.

Ah thank you for explaining it to me.  I understand this will be a prolonged conflict.  I'm eager to fight and do my part once more.

I've fought with Sergeant Ashworth many times.  He is very inspiring and a worthy warrior to lead.  I would follow him into the most deadly and dangerous battles.  He's a true battle brother.  That's the sort of person you need as the true Field Commander.  I think many would agree.

May Agaslakku be with us in the coming times.

Hello.

I'm writing to ask for historical reference and accuracy, how many battles or engagements has the the Field Commander actually participated in?

So far I've heard that it's a big zero that she's been in the field commanding anything.  I'm maybe confused about the position.  Does one actually have to lead men and women in battle or is it merely a ceremonial position that one uses to boast over about over bellow?

Perhaps I am misinformed so I  eagerly await to be corrected. 

I hope to follow a true inspiring leader who is on the field with the men risking their life.

Hello.

We spoke a bit before but you're a busy man.  I still seek a master to apprentice under and it's spoke around Ephias Well that you're the best.

How can I prove myself worthy to apprentice under you?  I'd like to learn the ways of engineering and tinkering.  That is if you wish to take someone under your tutorage.

Oh I like this idea, makes sense!!!

People want to see who's on to play with friends or meet up with specific players for maybe some sort of reason, seeing who's online makes this possible.  You can also see if someone from a faction is on if you want to join up.

I was talking to some folks and an idea about prisms came up.  Everyone knows the frustration game with them, you can do like 10 in a row and get nothing useful.

So the idea is perhaps prisms can drop WITH a specific aspect tuned to it already.  Then they have value and be traded.  Some might be worth more or some less.  You could then perhaps up the crafting DC on the roll to bind it to an item.  A sort of way to balance it and make it more risky.

I think if you're looking at it as a way to get player to waste gold this would make players set prices and spend gold much more.

With weapons being reworked I was wondering if there could be a balance with some of the weapon weights?

Hand Axe - 5lbs
Mace - 6lbs
Short Sword - 3lbs
Tiny Hammer - 2lbs

They all do the same damage.  A mace is 1lbs lighter than a battle axe at 7lbs.

I think some other weapons are similar like a double axe is 25lbs but a warm mace is only 15lbs (I think).

Anyways just a suggestion but I think the weight between the small weapons doesn't make much sense.

I agree with Griff here that the max 8's are fairly simple.  Likely by design.  I know some folks like things hard and some enjoy easy content.  So quest balance is tricky business.  I wish some of the quests had more optional part 2 (yes a lot of work so I understand why they don't) which gave more xp for a high risk.

I don't think it's hard at all to make 8 especially with the 12 hours between quest resets and the lower death penalty.  Some folk will always be better at questing or have more time too.  It's the nature of the game.

The ease to make 8 imo lets you focus on whatever else you want to do in the game world.

The 9-10 content is really cool and nothing is stopping a L7-L8 PC from doing that too?  I think things are to easy imo but for the server health and player retention is probably at a really good spot.

This thread start mostly feels like a player getting called out for being evil and not liking it.  The ability is needed for the paladin class to work.  I have very rarely seen it used in a lame manner. 

Who says someone has to trust what a paladin says or even trust what a paladin is?  Roleplay will win the day here.  As always, this is efu and just be classy on BOTH sides of this.

I'm looking to hire someone with good eyes that knows the northern desert well.

I also need someone who knows magic and can translate languages.

This is potentially a long term contract maybe leading to greater finds.

I like how positive this post is and it's got very good information in it.

Thanks!!  This will help many new players I feel.

Hello.

I write to you in dire times.  I suspect the great traitor we seek it none other than Mirielle Rosseau.  Let me lay out my evidence of such.

-It was her who allegedly met Diakos in the field, who knows what sort of talk was done there.  We have only her word.  She is a mercenary and would do anything for dinar.  As shown as her excessive mewing over the small wage we receive to kill the orcs.  Being paid for jobs is what she does, who knows maybe she was paid off by Diakos himself that day.

-Who was it that took Domhnall out to 'survey' the Rose Gate, then was ambushed by a legion of the Sibilant Empire.  Someone who had military planning skills and contact with Diakos could only pull such a feat off.

-She points fingers at everyone, calling them traitors and spies.  With no proof.  She slanders good men and women of Ephias' Well daily.

-The desire to defund Al-Sayaadin and allow the orcs to not only grow in numbers but out defense force become weaker and lack in training.  I was at Red Hill as you were.  We need everyone supplied and trained for the fights ahead.

-Lasty and the most SOLID proof is she hates the gnomish people.  A self proclaimed Moteist wearing a badge as she walks around Ephias' Well.  Who else would HATE the gnomes, the greatest foe of scaled-kind?  I will tell you who... someone allied with the New Sibilant Empire!


Please, have a FULL investigation by the Fourth Legion and perhaps searched for signs of Brooking.  Something is amiss here, friend.  Use your gut feelings.  You know something is off here.

I do not have the roster.  In fact he left us with a chaotic mess.  I have no idea who is with us or the amount of members we have.  I am told we are a citizen force then told that Accord members also are with us?  It's a mess.

Also beware.  Mirielle Rosseau is slandering you name as a sibilant spy to everyone.  She is not to be trusted.  A dirty Moteist.  She's working to have us disbanned.  I don't care about the funding truly.

Watch your back.
