well now its not so no need to remove the hunger/thirst deal

No offense here, but if all the shields are annoying for people to look at why not just config +quicklook. Im quite sure thats accessible even for a Caretaker
I see no problem with the current situation. If you have a problem with extra effects on items that you dont want, just dont wear it. Dont complain about "oh i need this item its the best blablabla but it makes me ravenous", its a choice you make and every advantage should have at least some small disadvantage. And Trolls should eat more because theyre larger in size...affects only make you need to eat more often not more i believe, and thats because the magic of the item sucks the energy from you. My only suggestion is to take out protect since it isnt used anymore and possibly just increase the enchantment of things like sanc..its only 400 if i saw correctly. If ppl dont eat/drink they lose complexity/mental state...I think its perfectly logical. I dont think its broke, so i dont suggest you "fix" it.

Personally, I would like to see 'create food' effected by Fec runes. Meaning that the portion created would be larger. Racial runes changing what was created slightly would also be cool.

You eat a piece of elvish waybread.
You eat a piece of dwarven battlebread.
You eat a piece of moldy bread.
ect...

Oei, create food and create spring *are* affected by effect runes...
But the racial runes would be quite interesting, perhaps some elemental rune effects? I somehow dont see this as high priority for Celeborn tho

Maybe I am wrong and this already exist like this, but I would rather see affect by spells work like this.

They would take away a certain amount of mana each round. This would reprensent the energy you lose from having it on you. So if you wearing an item with Sanc an it, maybe you lose 15 mana every round (or so).

And maybe even spells you cast on yourself could work like this, with a possible max duration. So, you cast sagacity on yourself. For example, it will cost 50 mana to cast initially, then every round (or so), it would cost an additional 5 mana to keep running with a max duration of 75 rounds.

ok, so nobody has a problem with the hunger thirst thing other than lingolas then?

i was under the assumption that nearly everyone hated it


hey, that works out, consider my idea withdrawn

i have a problem with PROTECT! *notices his question is still flying away*

thppppttt

homer, eomund, and matthew hate it too but they arent here to post.

And they don't play either so it doesnt matter

btw, forgot to mention there vogar, aside from effect runes modifying food and drink spells, other runes also can be used.


i think like 3-4 fecs in a create food/create spring prism make like instant fill up food, very handy

I hate the appetite thing.

Powerleveling is only cause by the subdue command and *NOTHING MORE*. Disableling the OPTION (player’s WILL to help others) to cast ups/boosters on another player isn’t encouraging grouping... it takes away the ’multiplayer’ part in MUD... and ... it’s saying ‘You on your own so go solo.’ What would be the point of grouping with a cleric? Sounds to me like some of you guys played this game solo and dislike others for having friends. I like how everything is right now on basis of Cele’s original idea on this matter and requesting no changes and only thing I think that needs to be ‘looked’ at is the subdue command. Even so.. I don’t think this should be taken out... but rather reduce to the max subdue would be around 75% to continue offering players the option of helping each other out by will AND at the same time prevents players from ‘cheating’... but rather still enable HELPING a smaller player.

Its not needed to config +quicklook because whatever item has see magic flag just craft something better. I mean that the whole point of crafting something better
For the advantage and disadvantage its more likly to have it on any mud. I do agree on the protect effect, since the alignments is not in play anymore
