I too am having the problem of a guy with no skill being able to reliably mine an ore that someone with skill in the field has not matched. I had up to 20% adamantite mining on one character, and he wrecked 8O% of the ada he tried for, whereas my alt got 1 ore at least every time. There's something ...

Thinking more on this I have come up with other solutions: Cap the mobs at a comfortably hard level where it takes days to level, or just make it so eventually it becomes more worthwhile to wear epic mob eq. By this I mean make them drop armor as well as weapons. And have them have a % chance of dro...

I am rather mixed, on one hand players need equipment that can support their level so they can enjoy increasing in the epics. On the other hand I agree with weems, it's dangerously close to becoming a hack and slash game. ESPECIALLY with no more equipment scrapping. My compromise- increase the cap, ...

RE: Powers I think quintos is pretty on the ball with having a new power pool. Not sure how I feel about a Draconian player becoming a dragon, perhaps they could get a dragon /form/ though, usable once every 12 hours for a max of two hours? Or just evolve aspects of dragons, for instance at first th...

Yes, Full form should be insane, say e2000. However, after full form...perhaps they could have the option to start off as a level 1 character again, but full formed? To make this attractive, each time you "re-mortaled" you could gain 1 power from a list, perhaps a starsign power, but stack...

Most importantly, players with old races should not be forced to change them. We've kept these characters through several patches, including the last race patch, and suffered through their complete lack of bonuses because we liked their uniqueness. After years of suffering their weakness for the sa...

Isabelle- technically- a new race would be more powerful than Half-Celestial...they gain a bonus. Celestials have...well...a name. Here's a question though, would the old races be able to affect their bloodline/innate breeding perks etc? I.e Half-Celestials/Half-Fiends add a Holy/Unholy taint thingi...

Exactly how many elvl 1,000's are there exactly?

I don't think the issue is difficulty, but the amount of time it TAKES to get to e1000. If you wanted to whine about difficulty, lets not forget about getting to 50/50/50 that's easy too.

I'd like to see more people start charging for heals and resurrects.

I would think that it would encourage people to craft sooner for their basic needs. And they could get things like Bullion (that's a spice right?I'm thinking Bullion Cubes here....) and then they could trade these spices (salt, pepper, thyme) to shop-keepers for items.

I Have played several Orcs in my time with Dark Legacy, and I tested out the new Feral Rage. I think it should be something that can be activated, like a starsign ability.

I don't think they were saying "why can't we master crafts in 1 hour" so much as saying that, there should be some kind of code that allows you to learn from your mistakes. I mean think about it, when you were little, if you touched something hot and got burned you learned something then. ...

I think that although this idea is good, it'd just complicate things a little more. And besides, I think the fact that one fails to recover gems from a wall when it says "garnet" in the wall, shows that they are not yet skilled enough to get usable gems from the wall. And when you are only...

DL needs some form of serious risk

Dark Legacy needs to have SOME form of serious risk. I suggested re-instating EQ purge, at first it was all EQ, but then I suggested 1 piece of eq when you die to a DT. But currently the only way for there to be some kind of serious risk in DL is to play Permadeath. And I think many of the more expe...
