Its doable with a little luck: Wait until one of the magic-allowable rooms has 0 or 1 dragons in it. Get everyone into the room and clear it. Now you have your beach-head. As the other dragons wander in, you just pick them off like you do normally. Those dragons are weak by themselves. They don't br...

Heheh.. yah the baby red fights were fun.

I'm still convinced 5-6 competent players could kill all of them in a single run. Now that would be a blast.

Laugh.. Tarrasque killing solo is a particularly bad idea.

Hey, does anyone have a capture of the Tarrasque's description by any chance?

There used to be a recall item on the Troll King. I'd like to see it brought back. The zone is difficult with that single file room full of Regen'n trolls. Especially without monks. Also nightbringer isn't exactly the spankiest piece of hardware around. Even though its ancient, I always found the zo...

It seems to be working. I've been giving my computer a workout for the last 8 hours or so and all is well, no lockups. BTW this was the best excuse I ever had for spending a day piddling around on the computer http://www.sojourn3.org/ubb/smile.gif Thanks a lot for all the help guys. Corth

Ok I just installed a Netgear Fast Ethernet PCI adapter (which is a NIC right? http://www.sojourn3.org/ubb/smile.gif ). I can use the internet.. so thats a good sign. Now I get to putz around the internet for a while waiting for a lockup.. and if there is one.. I'm going to get a sledgehammer.. and....

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I picked up some updated drivers for the USB last night in response to one suggestion, but it hasn't seemed to help. It seems like the consensus says I pick myself up a NIC card. I'll do that today. Ruhr: I have Time Warner, and consequently use their Road Runner ser...

This has nothing to do with mudding but its driving me nuts and I bet one of you computer studs can help... Ever since I got a cable modem about 2 months ago, my computer has locked up way too much. It can happen at any time.. if I'm using the computer or if its just sitting idle. Generally, it will...

That's right jurdex. You, me, and everyone else are just a figment of Verarb's imagination..

Thats a great idea Iz.

Why the emphasis on solo exploring?

It is only prudent to take necessary precautions. That usually means a group.

What happened?

My favorite dead of all time wasn't even one of my own. Sniff.

If I remember correctly, Vlorm killed himself on an elite or something when Cralya got res so that he could pop her cherry

Treladian: Yes grouping is fun for everyone. Also, I was completely guilty of neglecting rogue classes when I used to lead. On the other hand, like I said in my previous message, the only realistic way that I know of to balance rogues is to make them uber-hitters. Assuming that this wouldn't unbalan...

For my next amazing trick, I will transform an immortal into the statute of liberty. Do we have any volunteers? Errr!

I guess that I'm in the minority but I have never quite understood why it is so important that all classes be balanced relative to each other. People mud for different reasons. Some want to kill everything, complete every quest, etc. Others want to RP. Although I am not overly pre-occupied with the ...

Ragorn: You do not know the full story of how and why jurdex got his artifact, and I am not about to recount it for you. Suffice to say, it was more then merely killing tiamat. In fact, it had nothing at all to do with killing Tiamat. You are probably confusing Jurdex with Trogar, who was awarded a ...

Corth

I'm about to get overly theoretical. The way I see it, removing artifacts from sojourn is a misguided attempt to preserve everyone's self esteem. When an artifact is granted to someone, other then yourself, the implication is that the person who received the artifact is more deserving then you are. ...

Tempus forgot to mention that you can look forward to either working in the private sector and spending 75 hours a week in the office, or the public sector and living at home because you don't make enough money to rent an apartment.

Point of clarification:

When I said that wraiths didn't exist, I meant that they were just like any other mob in that they could be hit with !magic weapons.

Ruhr:

Most people would wear minor creation sandals if they had fancy ansi and were called "the ancient war boots of jizz the magnificent" or whatever.

I'll keep it in my pants, whatever that means, and you can keep waiting for one of your top notch items to be restrung.

I know this has been hashed and rehashed, but I decided I want to add my two cents. I do not think its a good idea to remove artifacts and relics from the game. Besides its excellent areas and players, sojourn has one thing that really makes it stand apart from most other muds. It has some serious h...

The human propensity to brag about idiotic things one has done never ceases to amaze me... I've had marathon mud sessions as well.. but I also recognize that it was quite a sick thing to do. So what I want to know is why someone would jeopardize important real life relationships, risk losing a job, ...

Ruhr: Thanuk was like level 35 or something when he won the contest. He did not have any other high level characters so he had to scrap for what equip he had. Furthermore, the flamberge was kickass at the time, since many of the zones we now take for granted hadn't been implemented. In fact, it didn...

Volo boots.

I'd rather have boots then isha, hole, dragonkind helm, and 2 mage staffs combined.

Glad to see you here.. regardless if you still actively mud.

Holy shiznat.. a Yuengling drinker! In college all we drank was Yuengling premium. Besides being hopeless alcoholics, we were also incredibly lazy.

I'm an NYC mudder. Guess that means I'm pathetic because unlike all of you from bumblef$%k, I can't say that theres nothing better to do where I live.

Gosh.. All this talk makes me think I'm going into the wrong profession. When I graduate I can look forward to working about 70 hours a week (not to mention 12 hours a week commuting back and forth). I'd love to mud 5-7 hours a day. But then I guess I'd have to quit sleeping. How do they do it? Gene.

Tempus: First off, glad your back. Second, I see your point. Although the ic vault does not have any random distribution or rare loads, Other non-grid zones do, and are both fun and challenging. I also agree that a zone like the vault is invaluable as basic training. On the other hand, and I really ...

I used to give bids to the sitter when I did tiamat runs.

As far as i was concerned, the sitter was just as important as everyone else. Of course, I'd never want to do it myself.. must be horribly boring.

Corth

Ruhr: I agree with your suggestion that there be more grid zones. Zones like, for instance, the IC vault, were boring cause it was the same thing each time, with the same mobs in the same room, etc. Grids on the other hand are unpredictable.. and nothing beats a grid for its both difficult and rewar...
