well, may as well throw in my 2 penneth.... and for those of you wondering where i've been, yeah sorry, babies, moving house, burst appendix, work.... been a busy year anyway i thought ... oooh V10.0, maybe i should grab a chance and at least log in even if i don't get a chance to play much...

(starts creating fake logins to increase the number of views to the thread) Seriously, we liked the story. Might have been better with Bruce in of course, but I'm sure we have that to look forward to. And crowds of exas too - with photos. Why aren't more people reading this thread ...

Aha this is good news. So the next story will be in a year or 2, due to large amounts of planning, and a lot of writing. I think we can expect Harry Potter and the Thorifoid Temple, or something of that size. Maybe a set of 7 books? :D We are looking forward to it already. Well done edana...

Bare-back? So that means the falx has no clothes on? I always knew falx were a bit kinky, but I think this is a bit much. There was a young falx called Dave Breer * Who escaped from his LA last year He found Pinky's estate and stole her jaffa cake but decided he preferred Lars' beer * this...

I don't think so, since the damage has already been worked out to determine the effect on your health. The armour decay just needs to convert actual damage absorbed into decay, which would be the same for a given armour type. So just 1 table per armour type, with 1 entry per possible absorbed...

I know what you're saying - yes modern servers are fast. But even assuming each area has a cluster not just 1 server (and I certainly hope it does), with different boxes to do different tasks, there is a lot more to do than just calculate armour decay, and I don't honestly think they would...

I doubt they even do this - computing A*dmg^1.75 + B*dmg each time a mob hits your armour is expensive in computing time, when you consider that so many players are having armour hit every second. The multiply will be fast - it's the ^1.75 that's nasty. A smart developer would not want this to...

When you see the image of an item in the TT you can right click it and choose Item Info - the item properties window appears. Click the magnifying glass at the bottom right of this window to see the item stats. Maxed means you have reached the point where you can use the item as well as...

Wheat foundation really really does come from exas. It was an exa domi the first time and around 16 pedder, but it did happen. I'll take screenies next time. :P

Do! I really enjoyed reading it - definitely to be recommended. And come on - we need more views, otherwise we'll never find out what happens to these people in episode 2 !

There's a lot of good advice here, although there seems to be a lot of focus on armour for some reason. My guess is that if you've been out in the wilds of EU mining, you already know which mobs hit you hard and which you can run from, and you've probably built up a bit of evade already. So...

I seem to remember seeing another game had a similar problem with grass, and actually released a modded map without the grass for ppl who had the problem. However, most likely it's due to the merry mayhem event. So many exas were killed, they are not eating the grass and it's grown too long -...

I've looted wheat foundation twice now from exas in the last week or 2. Nice list btw leeloo :)

An interesting discussion. One point which occurred to me: It was said above, that random loot is most likely, primarily because it's the simplest to implement. It's a close run thing whether this is actually easier than tracking amount spent by player (ie removed from inventory or decayed...

But this might just mean one of you was consistently quicker with pressing the sweat key. You really need to compare success rate (ie successes per attempt) to eliminate other factors. I know this is an obvious point which you would have seen already - not trying to teach my granny to suck...
