Yes it depends a lot on WHAT and WHEN you harvest. The more events you have, the higher chance of breaking the medallion. This means that astro as well as type of harvestable affect the break rate (because they affect how many events you get). Also, it is based on probability, so you can break 3 medallions in one load of harvestables, but you can also be lucky to do heavy harvesting for several weeks without breaking it. One way for you to check it without spending gc, is to make it yourself or gather ingredients and let your guildies/friends mix it for you.

I'd love to see the various types of slimes like: - gelatinous cube - black (and other color) pudding - grey (and other color) ooze These creatures would live in sewers and swamps waiting for victims to come close enough. Specials: - immune to physical damage (from normal weapons) - susceptible to elemental damage (cold/fire) - chance to poison victim - for puddings: on death split it to two mobs with half HP of the original one - for cubes: chance to paralyze victim Drops: - gc and maybe some random item from "commonly used player items" Would be cool to have these randomly spawned on acid rain #day (on selected maps of course)

One thing to consider is the impact of this potion while using the special medallions which consume action points. Wouldn't it be too over powered then ?

Should only be attackable with spear and in group of at least 5 players

The problem is little bit more complicated. Currently your storage is represented by Item id and it's quantity, so if you withdraw a titanium longsword from storage, it means that the counter for that item is reduced by one. This means that to store 10 pieces of same item, you need to store only one number. With unique id's per item, you would need to save the "ancestor or template id" of that item and all changed/added/removed properties ... So it would be a major change to switch from unique id per item type to unique id per item piece.

Well if this was my decision, i'd simply put all people on same starting point (level 1 in all spells). Honestly, there is no skill in leveling magic using MD

You could even have levels for certain spells. Currently all "fighting" skills have it's own level (attack/defense/ranging) ... Same could be done for spells, so the more you use one spell, the more proficient you are casting it. This would also remove the OP of harm and other spells... Magic nexus could be used as an amplifier of spell effects (for all spell types) or to lower opponent's magic resistance/immunity (for attack spells). I think this implementation could also lead to different "mage builds" (healer/supporter/damage dealer...) One could also think about simple spell trees like: poison (does damage according to your poison spell level) --> (at level X becomes) disease (does damage + lowers random stat, at higher levels could lower more than one stat) restoration (restores portion of life) --> miracle (restores all life) --> wondrous healing (restores all life + removes negative effects poison/curse etc) --> gods embrace (restores all life + removes neg. effects + chance to get blessing) remote heal (heals some of targets life) --> aid (heals some of targets life + chance to remove negative effects) And so on ..

I did not make lot of 100-120 instances (just like 2 or 3) but i think that this is quite an exaggeration. Last two times we had quite bad drops (one cocalar dropped only 3666 gc and an orange, the other one ~50kgc and 40 RoPs) ... However both times we had enough gc from drops to cover ALL supplies and we made few gc extra (like 8kgc)... Both times we made the instance in 6 people. I know that drops are a big motivation to enter instances, but i guess it's not the only one.

If you have a shell account on a server outside of university net, you could make a ssh tunnel (using putty for example)...

i and many other people are currently already using summoning stones, in both invasions and invances. i dont see how this item would be any different. Well you wrote it would work the same way as a many of the special weapons/armours, but would have a small chance to summon a random creature Now, if you go into instances/invances you probably see the orange spam from magic armors/weapons ... do you STILL think it would not be different from using stones ?

Heh just imagine how it would look like in an invasion or invance ... C*R*A*Z*Y

Not really, point in this scam was that he said to enter the middle door in BH which is PK and there is a portal leading to TD (i guess you know what that means).

Your latest update fixed this for me \o/ Currenlty using commit b3dc49c267ecdf4ecfcb4fb79864dd25cc9fa6ad Author: Xaphier Date: Wed Dec 14 13:05:17 2011 +0100 * Better framebuffer checking.

I am compiling on xubuntu 11.10 64bit ..

Hey Xaphier, thx for the update I noticed few glitches and a crash: [Thread 0x7fffecbb2700 (LWP 15898) exited] Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x000000000073f012 in eternal_lands::RStarTreeNode::calculate_enclosing_bounding_box() () (gdb) bt #0 0x000000000073f012 in eternal_lands::RStarTreeNode::calculate_enclosing_bounding_box() () #1 0x000000000071c57b in eternal_lands::RStarTree::condense_tree(std::vector<boost::shared_ptr<eternal_lands::RStarTreeNode>, std::allocator<boost::shared_ptr<eternal_lands::RStarTreeNode> > >&, std::stack<boost::shared_ptr<eternal_lands::RStarTreeNode>, std::deque<boost::shared_ptr<eternal_lands::RStarTreeNode>, std::allocator<boost::shared_ptr<eternal_lands::RStarTreeNode> > > >&, boost::shared_ptr<eternal_lands::RStarTreeNode> const&) () #2 0x000000000071d857 in eternal_lands::RStarTree::remove(boost::shared_ptr<eternal_lands::BoundedObject> const&) () #3 0x00000000006baa7d in eternal_lands::Scene::remove_object(unsigned int) () #4 0x000000000059e244 in remove_bag () #5 0x0000000000566743 in process_message_from_server () #6 0x00000000005ce88c in start_rendering () #7 0x00000000004e27e2 in main () 1. It looks like something is wrong with zoom level - i am not able to move around by clicking on ground, for example i was standing in EVTR at 290.360 looking south and clicked on tile right before me and started walking to position 284,287 ... (mapwalking works without problems). 2. I am able to zoom inside my char (it looks a bit strange when you see only your cloak and boots ) 3. Health bar and name over other players/mobs moves around when i walk - this might be caused by point 1.

Halil, please answer this simple question: You think they broke the rules, now if we want to move further please answer that question.

Well, i think you'll find out a LOT sooner then on some uber high OA that you need/want to remove it, so a #reset will be not a big deal. Almost everybody on his/hers first char makes at least one #reset ...

Entering an instance with help of enters and training there is clearly abusing the system.

It could be also connection problem that is causing the clients to lag... Not everybody has high speed internet connection (i do, so np for me )

Two questions: 1. Are there any items/weapons/armors that are NOT allowed ? 2. Level caps are computed like (attack + defense) / 2 ? PS: i'll join the 80-100 range.

I am trying to make a special potion. I need 200 Ice Dragon Scale of which I have 126, 1200 Amber and I have 1200, 3 Pear of which I already have 1, and finally, 25 Orange of which I already have 25.
