Does anyone have any interesting resolutions for the new year for GemStone?

I'm thinking that 2009 might be the year of Role Play. To craft and attempt to execute a character concept that focuses greatly on role play and less on mechanics. I'm pretty excited.

(2008, in contrast, was the year of I Want to Play With Planar Shift. I largely stopped playing my main Wizard character and I leveled a Sorcerer to 40 with only vague character definition planned ahead of time. It was fun...ish.)

Leave it to Belnia to take something fun and make it unfun as soon as possible. :(

Naos, resolves to put Belnia on ignore until 2010

1: I will stay on top of my enchanting projects and complete a cast within 6 hours of the temper finishing.

2: I will always remember to put my armor back on before hunting

3: I will not accidentally mix up 525 and 425 in town square this year.

4: I will give more charity spell ups

You are now targeting Droit.

>(it was actually FWI, too)

No it wasn't. :-)

It's FWI now. It was Frostacres then.

Actually, it's the town of Mist Harbor on Four Winds Isle. Since there is little more than the vineyard and festival site outside of town it is all the same as far as where our characters could visit.

Hunt a little. Alchemize a little. Maybe hit 90 by the end of the year? Continue being more awesome than Rimalon? Sounds like a plan.

Finally play a wizard. I've got her to 5. So far I've had alot of fun playing her. She's a little winedotter gnome who will hopefully find a nice Lady to serve under soon. Wish her luck.

>Continue being more awesome than Rimalon?

That's a resolution? Feh. That's simply living.

Timmie rudely exclaims, "Reallia you are the destroyer of gnome dreams!"


XXXX softly says, "You, teacher, I both admire and lust after."

>>>Feh. Man has a style of cooking I, for one, find spicy.

So what you're saying is that having Rimalon around is like having a local taco bell!?

Long live the Gordita of Gemstone, and his little white cat too!!!

Enchant the perfect vultite lance someone gave me to 7xs.


I hate 7xs projects. I REALLY hate them due to the time factor.


Big resolution:

Go through all the lockers/mules and have a bard sing to every weapon/armor so I know what the heck it is and then have an auction.

Yeah right...


Velvette...packrat extraordinaire!

Hit level 25 so I can enchant all the random invasion weapons I've collected over the years.

Stop wasting time trying to do foraging bounties. Even trained in survival I need open rolls to find most things :(

Maybe I'll even train in alchemy. I've collected every alchemy component I've found, and all I have done is gotten the free first ranks in everything.

I hope ye dropped ye training in that skill, it is a ridiculously paltry advantage to foraging.

As for the alchemy, you probably will not need a single alchemy drop until rank 40, or so, in General Alchemy. Up until then, all ye need to do is forage (GET A RANGER!) for the herbs and everything else can be bought at the store or the guild, depending on the ingredient. Trinkets and Potions I believe may start to need some crystals before rank 10 or 20. I honestly do not remember when they are needed yet.
