I can answer the locker question at least.

Since you are now basic, you will only have one locker - not a locker in every town. Everything you may have had in those lockers just got crammed into the one locker. Next time you go into the locker, it is going to make you take everything from the locker to get under the item limit imposed on that one locker.

Best advice is to have deep containers and a healthy carrying capacity, along with a disk. Also a lot of time. It's a nightmare.

Welcome back, Zizzle.

I don't know the answer to your question on upgrading to premium again -- but I would suspect that it will at least make the task easier to manage. You might need a friend or two along to assist, also.

4 years? Game hasn't changed much in that time. The Rift sucks; try bowels to get back into hunting shape (make sure to get purify air). Elders, jarls and greater elementals are level 88. In fact, I think you were doing that area last time Guen saw you. No undead there, but you can take advantage of the new (Temporary) Lich King area in the landing if you need favor (get maps from the Town folder, and stay away from the banshees).

>>If you said that a year ago, I'd agree. In the last year, however, there have been some substantial changes. Monks, spell durations changes and improvements in interface, minor mental spell list, sorc ball spell and bolt AS booster and curses, cleric CS booster, couple of other things I missed, all in the last year. Sure, there could be more, but that's about the most dev GS has seen in a long time.<<

Heh; ok I was speaking from the point of view of what Zizzle needed to know. He's not a brawling wizard, so monks and the UAC aren't likely to impact him, nor aremost of the other things you listed. I do admit, I should have mentioned something about spell durations. Zizzle, most spells that were single cast only have been changed so that they can now be stacked, which is indeed welcome change for just about everyone.

You can also instantly cast all of your buffs 1x per day for every 75 ranks of EMC you have. This costs no mana, but is quite impressive and useful after a death. On the other hand, you also have a Voln symbol which can pretty much do the same post-death.

How does one cast all their buffs at once? And the Voln symbol that does the same thing? Please enlighten me.

--Zizzle

The Voln symbol is a little different. Its a Voln symbol that will recast the spells you had on when you were dead (and you use it while dead, I think). There is some sort of limitation as for outside spells that you don't know, but it seemed very generous.

I have used recall once ot twice, but I am starting to question whether it is worth the favor cost. I am usually going to need to wait a bit anyway after dying to get spirit back before I go hunting again. One exception might be when being field raised in an area where sanctuaries drop fairly fast, like OTF.

I hate the Rift. Hated it then, and still hate it. I don't plan on going back there at all. And you are right I was hunting in the Bowels back then, and running with the Drakes to all kinds of fun places. Grimswarming and all. I plan on getting back into the groove with the Drakes again (I already did a run through Lich town with em and survived!)

At some point I will actually test myself in the Bowels again and see how well I remember tactics.

However, what is primarily taking up my time now is actually the UAC, and monks. I know you thought that I wouldn't be interested in that because Zizzle is not a brawler (nor will he be), I had always had a love affair with Voln Fu, and monk style hand to hand combat. I created a rogue equivalent of a monk before they changed the brawling (Voln Fu) to what it is now and introduced the monk. My rogue is 70th level but I have NO intentions of converting him to a monk, as he is my locksmith first and foremost. So I rolled up a monk instead to see what all this JAB, JAB, PUNCH, KICK and GRAPPLE stuff is all about.

Fun stuff!

Then there is my annoying halfling ranger-archer who is quite suicidal and drags his buddy into warcamps to die... fun times!

But when I stop relearning the maps and the game again (a lot is coming back to me actually) I will probably start focusing on Zizzle more and more. Thanks for the info.
