Alvy: Since you can't jack up (size-wise) the vultures, what is the process to get something ubber approved in and around Lang/Therenborough?

I seem to recall Z just making assassins more difficult when that change was put into place in the Spire area (near Raven's Court|Hib|Shard).

I also believe at the last SimuCon, a wyvern area was announced for around Shard with some ubber stuff.

In short, who do I need to bother (more than I already have) to get a bigger creature put in the Theren|Lang area?


Madigan, lonely on the islands.

<< For those who just can't stand the islands we are adding higher level hunting to Muspari, which is close to Theren.>>

A couple things about that...

1. Cool, I'm looking forward to it. Hopefully it involves creatures that don't use stealth, since pretty much all the other creatures at that level do. Extra bonus points if they're living creatures (neither undead nor construct).

2. Muspari can't really be called "close" to Theren/Lang if the gweth ranges don't play nice. Being unable to hear what's going on in the "nearby" area in which you're interested means you're "not in that area".

3. I haven't gotten around to trying out that new sand barge bypass yet, but in its absence the trip between Theren and Muspari isn't exactly quick. If the bypass doesn't remedy that, then all high level hunting in Muspari would do is make sure all of the isolated areas have high level hunting, which doesn't really address the problem.

Just some things to consider...personally I'd prefer just adding something closer. Like those fancy new orcs people keep saying exist...they'd fit right in near Rossman's.

Great points Karthor. At this point I would rather accept isolation in Muspar'i than the Kresh/M'riss.

I don't think anyone would complain too much if those islands were removed from the game as long as decent training could be found on the mainland.

I know I sure wouldn't mind.

I would. I love kresh and M'riss. I enjoy the atmosphere of them both, the critters, and the fact that you're isolated. It requires some strategy for hunting out there, because although you may have a guild to go to for circling, you don't have any place to spend tdp's. I think training out there is a very nice challenge.

So isolation is all about the gweth and not the travel time?

We have lots of players who enjoy the islands, it's an acquired taste. If I quit being a GM tommorrow and went back to playing full time I'd go running right back to the islands!


GM Alvy

<<So isolation is all about the gweth and not the travel time?>>

I wouldn't say it's all about that, but rather that both are factors. If you can hear what's going on but not get there in a timely manner, that's really not much better than being unable to hear it at all.

Not having been there in a while, how far of a ride is it?

That's not bad for travel. Can we get dillos there? :D

That's what they said about peccs until someone brought them to Rossman's. :P

do it "king kong" style. someone brings in a couple for a "zoo" display. They escape. woops!

Can we have critters that work with the Muspari environment that are all the dillo levels but aren't called dillos? And can they generate better than adults and elders?

Thank you

Felicini

I'll post one if there isn't one.. But for Muspari, can the critters be skinnable? Gems/coins are ok but I like to skin stuff since popping boxes makes my eyes bleed.

>But for Muspari, can the critters be skinnable?

Is there anything at the dillo level that drops boxes? I don't do boxes either, so I have no idea what's available at any level. But if there's not, I'd suggest any new creature at that level should drop boxes so the people who like having their eyes bleed can get in on the action at higher levels.

Assassins drop tons of boxes FWIW.

I think you're talking about resuscitants in the Misenseor Abbey. Fun creatures.

Also, I would love to see greater forms of the basilisks (or something "related") arrive in Muspar'i.
