Would it be possible to change disarm to not require entering the name of the weapon? For example disarm by itself would attempt to disarm the primary weapon if there is one wielded if not then try the secondary weapon. Disarm <weapon> would still attempt to disarm the specific weapon.

What I would like to see if there is a next phase is this: 1. Remove all xp but kill xp. 2. Normalize xp tables. 3. Reduce grouping penalty. Not to sound like a broken record, but that's exactly what 2.0 does, and is beyond the scope of these band-aid fixes. It seems to me that #3 should be fairly ...

Could setup an adopt-a-newbie program where each newbie is assigned to a mentor. The mentor could help the newbie out with guidance, perhaps donating an item to them every 5 levels, and taking them on light runs (things like underdark, AV, jot, brass etc). If you really want to get the player hooked...

#1 Lack of small group activities. With the diminishing player base it is very difficult to get any kind of decent zone group together. There is a serious lack of zones that are possible with 5-10 man groups that yield anything decent. #2 Time. A lot of mud players are getting to a point in their li...

How about if every X minutes a random zone gets a full reload.

How about just making bandage function like mini cure light. Might make the skill a bit more useful and give non troll tanks a chance of killing something solo more often than every 15 minutes.

There are a few weapons that mages can use that are fairly powerful (khanjari comes to mind), and this would just make mages better at soloing than they already are.

Give clerics silence room again and melee damage will become important.

The kick ideas Sound a lot like monks, if you are going to improve rangers why not focus on their area of specialty like archery?

Would be nice if it also included an option to instant sale items.

Doesn't it already do something similar with group cached items?

Because Microsoft won't be in charge of MEO and D&D online. Turbine does some good work, when they don't have Microsoft callin the shots.

If yer using the fast user switch feature in win xp this can cause problems (using windows + l to switch users). Make sure everyone else logged off before ya try runnin zmud.

I can volunteer for any coding that may be needed for this, but for zone writing you'd be better off with a pack of rabid reesus monkeys than me.

kragt

You could also take a few ideas from AC. They had level restricted zones that were part of mini-quests or contained decent low-level items. Sometimes the items from these zones were part of a larger quest that players worked on throughout the life of their character. The quests could also reward xp ...

How bout throwing up a website at torilmud.org somewhere that forwards people to this one? And putting a program on that box that responds to any connection on port 9999 with the new address. Someone has to have a box that can be used as a placeholder until the mud switches back to torilmud.org.

Apache/PHP/MySQL is the slickest combo for web development I've used yet. PHP is a very easy language to pickup, especially if you have any background in C/C++. Add to that the fact that you only have to pay for the hardware and not the OS, web server and database server and it becomes a great choic...

For zoning fights it wouldn't matter much, with stone skin or scales to reduce the damage. This would only help warriors when trying to solo or in groups without stoner/scaler. The semi-warrior classes have their own advantages that outweigh a warriors tanking ability in these situations, like being...

How bout giving warriors a skill called body hardening. Should be reflexive skill around 30th level that reduces the amount of damage warrs take from hits. At most should reduce 1/4-1/3 of the damage, and skill level should increase by taking hits.

Skill suggestions for warriors: Guard: Guard <targetname> would work like preemptive rescue. A mob enters and attacks target, or tries to switch then the warrior would step in front.

Ok lemme clarify a few things. Its not the time itself that is the real factor but rather the fact that I have to spend literally days of time doing something that is mindless and repetitive.

Would it be that big of an unbalancing factor if the exp needed to level was reduced across the board? Experience hunting has always been one of the most mind numbing and boring things of any online role playing game. This may also help increase the player base, since people would not have to be har...
