  1. Feasting or Spirit restoration?

    agreed, make BR's, take full EMU worth to NPC - sell BR's and for the gc buy Feasting potions (repeat indefinitely) iirc you should get profit in the amount of Feasting Potions and should get some extra gc from the process too.
  2. Vial molds breaking like glass

    By checking my astro before using them my stats were something of about 3-5k vials with one mold (sometimes I got even more with one if I finished making vials before the mold broke and continued using it the next time) .... but then again haven't been online for a few months
  3. potion of fortune

    how about flip? that is astro = astro*-1 if you had bad astro you'll have good, if you had good astro - it will be bad and if your astro was neutral there would be no effect the more negative your astro was the more profit from drinking the potion, don't know if astro prediction could be flipped too... but the "effect ware off" would be that astro keeps changing as it does usually that's what I'd like
  4. way too close to the storage... and there's a LOT of unused or rarely used space in C2 where the second ranging area could be built. better something like the caves in Hurquin or somewhere in Sedicolis EDIT: heck we could make the second one even further away so that just beginner rangers would not prefer it (as a noob ranger it doesn't bother me if I block your path but you as a high level ranger can't shoot... am I wrong?)
  5. How fast r y00?

    same here:
  6. @ and # and maybe / buttons on client

    right, forgot about that the action will be executed.... ok but then theres the option of using prompts test @||@<say what in active channel> @@8||@@8 <say @@8> #||#<command>
  7. @ and # and maybe / buttons on client

    bit of a far fetched solution but..... couldn't this be solved with User menu?
  8. Client patch for Windows and Linux data (V2)

    Note that not using dds files will make map changing slower again (or the problem might be that the custom (non-official) maps I have are with higher resolution then the official maps) How to convert bmp to dds? tried with XnView under windows but client didn't open the maps
  9. Client patch for Windows and Linux data

    same thing with the poison indicator (sry, no screenshot atm)
  10. Client patch for Windows and Linux data

    agreed, unbelievably nice update (Raz - 7zip under winXP extracted it just fine for me) By any chance could this have made loading map image slower? the map changing (going indoors/outdoors, going to another map) is a lot faster but opening the map view (TAB key) for the first time on a map then the client hangs for (quit) a while before showing the map. Although seems to load map to memory or something to because the second time viewing the map is instant. But just wanted to know if first time opening went slower than before for anyone else too or is there something i need to work on ? EDIT: would gziping my maps help? currently there bmp
  11. Unusual problem...with ALT key?

    hah, yes was able to reproduce it under linux too (kde 3.5) the same problem in general: if you press the ALT key while EL is not in focus and while still holding down the key focus on el window and hit some key like M the ALT is not counted and the key is just printed out in local chat Never had the problem myself before because KDE changes windows after you release the ALT key - therefor to reproduce the problem I had to focus EL window by clicking on it in taskbar
  12. Unusual problem...with ALT key?

    Did you check for so-called hardware sticky-keys? It might not be related to software at all Try another keyboard, sometimes (more like always) stuff gets beneath the buttons and/or sometimes the keyboard just gets tired over time and some of the keys loose the spring n their step and stay down (most often happens with the CTRL and ALT keys) ...just say'n - worth a shot
  13. Concerning bagjumping

    I was thinking of a cheaper rosto-like stone that would only be removed if you were hit by a teleport nexus.... as ant-teleport-nexus stone
  14. Concerning bagjumping

    password protected mines? insert the correct password and the bomb doesn't blow E: if you didn't get it, that's a joke not real suggestion E2: how about a rosto for teleport nexus? lose the stone instead of teleporting (you could call it a bribe for MN)
  15. Second ranging target !

    In general I agree with the idea of a second arena, would be nice if so there wouldn't be so many ppl ranging in the same small area. But considering that a new arena would need firstly the decision of location where to add it, then there would have to be the map change (create another no-magic area - and ofc some there will always be ppl who don't like the chosen area made non-magic) and then the new arena would need testing (I'm sure there would be more problems with it that I cannot think at the moment)....... the simplicity of adding a new target overweights the benefits of making a second arena. and adding the second arena would not make you lag more on the arena as that depends on the amount of rangers not by the amount of targets p.s FYI Korrode, some of us lag even in a packed storage, so even tho I did change in the XML file (tho it helped a ton) I also was laggying a lot in the ranging arena.
  16. I'm pretty sure this has been suggested before, but couldn't find the topic. Could it be possible to count the amount of Rostogol Stones I have lost and show it under Events or Breakages? Also I think the amount of lost rostos would also be a great achievement (as getting bricks for radu's castle is an important part of EL after all)
  17. rostos lost

    yes, ty, I know about that page.... but that page show the ranking of the players who have lost the most rostos in a game year, I was more interested on how many rostos i have poofed exactly besides, if i get it right el-cel awards page shows the 3 top players and the rest in alphabetic order?
  18. 6 months of El playing

    I have to agree, gr8 job for just 6 months, think my stats were about half of you have achieved in that time IMHO magic is a hard thing to lvl and it does take time. But i can suggest that unless your godless take the magic god. one of the simplest gods to please and the bonus really pays off. Also if your mixing st00f in storage wear a fast regen cape and cast spells whenever your mana is full, doesn't seem like much but it will add up.... gl, and see you ingame
  19. Fighter or Mixer ? :)

  20. Making Pickaxes...

    wooden handle: Items needed: 5-10 wood branches (or logs, but if logs a saw might also be required) Tools required: Iron Axe, Carving Knife
  21. Awards system

    question - is the Vanquisher "Achievement" given for Novac's potion quest as said on el-cel page: http://www.el-cel.co...hievements.php or is it given for completing the combat tutorial? Because AFAIK I've done the potion quest (5 critters?) but I don't have that achievement. http://game.eternal-....php?user=zalic but, thanx Radu, i really-really love the achievements list
  22. EL checker

    use a mirror for the online players list, i use Greypal's mirror http://www.eternal-l...81 but i built a web app so i store the info fetched from the mirror locally too EDIT: i didn't see a moral dilemma because as you said, it only refines the data all ready available, does it matter that you see all of the players online and CTRL+F to see if your buddy is online or do you use a script to see a predefined list of users only changes the fact of how fast you see them online. For me the CTRL+F version would still be more accurate due to the cache time of my web app - every time you look at the list it can be ~6min or more old But again i must admit that i am just a harmless harvester therefor i might not see the ways ppl might abuse this. EDIT2: I was thinking about adding ability for users to create lists so I would like to see if any users have any problems with this
  23. skipping school

    ouch, seems I had a really playful school time, in high school I didn't attend about 25% of the classes (statistics were done every half a school year - and I wasn't ever number 1 in that list ) I got a parental excuse to skip school every time I just used the phrase "I don't want to go today." or "There is no point of going today." Why? Simple - because my grades were good and I never misbehaved while i skipped school - just had better things to do with my time than to sleep in classes But maybe we just have a different school system in the country where I live and skipping some classes isn't such a big deal. Or maybe it was just the fact that the school is in the country side not a city school.
  24. Sorry, but the point that "gatherer med should work with ranging because leveling ranging is hard and expensive" seems bogus. Tailoring is also a "hard and expensive" skill to level, and no-one promised that you will get rich fast by either of the skills.... --- Question: if there would be only melee fighters all without Gatherer Med's wouldn't it still be the person who did the most damage that would step on the creatures bag when the creature is killed? If so then in only melee combat having or not having a gatherer med only changes the fact that you don't have to click twice on the getAll button. But if Gatherer Med would work for rangers - the bag would be fetched to a safe distance without the killer ever being in any danger. That's my logic on this matter (Too low level at both A/D and ranging to have any real experience on the matter) Edit: But yes, Xanthus, I agree that it would not make BJ easier because still the person who made the most damage would get the bag, and all other fighters just have to hope that the person that did the most damage is kind enough to share the loot with other fighters (It's the same as it is now for all rangers - they have to hope that the melee fighter that got the bag shares the loot)
