Re: EUO has moved to a new server: DON'T PANIC

Not sure if it's because of the new server, but when I try and patch it's not working. Command prompt will open and something will happen faster than I can see and then it closes.

Running Windows 8 if that's any help.

Re: Crypt Wizard: forums exclusive demo

Some feedback which may or may not be useful. I didn't feel the way you go about getting creatures worked all that satisfactory. Needing marble for spawns seemed weird and didn't like that when a creature dies you need to use a new spawner. I could be wrong but I think it's the case that there is a ...

Re: Crypt Wizard: forums exclusive demo

Enjoying it a lot. Beat the tutorial and tried a real game. Quickly had a problem where my stockpile wasn't big enough and didn't have enough space to build another (was right next to a portal) so decided to restart on a huge map. Dug out a 5x5 area to make certain my stockpile had plenty of room on...

Re: Ideas thread 2014

More epics definitely get my vote. Also might be interesting to have chaotic versions, where every creature has it's stats multiplied to a different random number. Finally I think it would be fun if 2x2's had a tiny chance to also be hybrids creating mega rare ultra strong bosses.

Re: The level cap.

Is there ever a legitimate reason to use the shrines of Sagacity and Vitality, or does this always weaken your character? If so how about making them only usable for level 450 + and then as 1 says add in some underworld shrines for things like MR, Vigour, Crit Chance etc. Another alternative if the ...

Re: vampires!

Relating to the food issue, one thing I find a little strange is that I can be starving, have a monster in front of me, and yet I can't eat because I don't have any rage. Surely if someone is starving they would eat regardless. I find as mage this is annoying as in a group hunt I'll be unlikely to g...

Re: Ideas thread 2013

With regards to the level cap and keeping people interested when they hit 450 what I would personally find most motivational would be the option to remort the character back to level 1 but with a slightly stronger start base. Perhaps something like an extra 25% skill cap, and a small amount of bonu...

Re: Ideas thread 2013

That's kind of the point. You can't solo them, you need multiple attackers to drop the defence, thereby encouraging more co-operation and group work.

Treasure maps for Maeondir (Ornate treasure map?) and the underworld (Dark treasure map?). They would require higher cartography skill than the normal maps and their drops would be rarer.

Re: vampires!

With regards to the debate about how much damage sunlight should do, you could make vampirism a skill. When you first turn into a vampire sunlight barely hurts, but your attacks also have a very low vampiric effect. As you make kills you slowly increase your vampire skill and gain more vampiric atta...

An idea for adding large numbers of new quests without it being too time consuming. Introduce a new NPC that is in a semi hidden spot in each dungeon.

Re: RFC - races

I find races work best when they each specialise, and are very different from each other; so that each race in it's own way appears overpowered and therefore tempting to play.
