Everyone please welcome Seluna to our ranks, she will be joining our ranks as apprentice under myself.


*scrolls up*

I never got announced on here when I joined up.  I\'d glare at my Master, but as I\'m just a lowly apprentice, I\'m sure that\'s frowned upon.

My hubby doesn\'t play either... I\'ve gotten him to try, but it just doesn\'t stick. *sigh* Oh well, more game time for me! ;)

My hubby has a character, but when he\'s home he doesn\'t have much time to load up PS.  Maybe when his new laptop comes he\'ll play more.

Draw a line as you travel, indicate any times you turned, and mark down reference points (places/things you would recognise if you came across them again) once in a while. No excuse for getting lost in the current world, except perhaps laziness.

My thoughts,

Xirius

Try finding your way when the textures don\'t load for you.  I can\'t tell where I\'m going on my way to Ojaeveda in any sort or recognizable way except for a vague sense of direction.  It would be nice to have a little corner of the screen with, if not a detailed map, at least a little compass to show me where I am relative to other players, NPCs, or something.

Also try your \"draw a line\" thing down in the sewers.  I tried it.  It didn\'t work very well.  Not knowing relative distances, it can be hard to tell whether you\'re in a new corridor or if you\'ve just found a different way to get to the same corridor you were already in.

It\'s not for you to say that anyone who gets lost is stupid or lazy.

Edit: In addition, this is in NEWBIE HELP.  Newbies are very likely to get lost easily as they don\'t have even a basic knowledge of how to get around.

Quests are bugged. I did attempt to complete the Harnquist quest, but giving him what he wanted, attempting to trade it to him, selling it to him, trying all sorts of combinations of conversation with him... nothing worked.

I\'m pretty sure this is a well-known bug that has not yet been fixed.  But I\'m sure they\'ve been working on it.

And, by the way, since the last version update, x.009, the missile seems to be going in the wrong direction.  Maybe the animation for that one is bugged?

It reaches the target and has its desired effect, its just the animiation that seems off.  I\'ve seen it go sideways, backwards,...  lol

(edit: bad spelling)

I\'ve never seen the missile go in the correct direction. It\'s rather amusing.

This is new though. I\'ve had lag before, but not where I couldn\'t move at all. And I did check the bugtracker... I wasn\'t able to find any reports of still frames and inability to move like I\'m experiencing.  I thought perhaps the newest update might have caused this issue only for WinXP users or something, as I can see that not every other player is having the same problem.

Edit: I did wait to report this when it happened to me last night immediately after running the updater.  I tried loading the game twice last night with the same results.  I thought it might be a temporary thing, or maybe I forgot to close down one of the other programs running on my system.  But when the exact same thing happened this morning, it occured to me that it was not a temporary thing, and pinging the server did not provide a plausible explanation.

Edit 2: Only way out was to /spawn. I did try running back to the arena from Hydlaa, but as soon as I started running up the steps, it got slower and slower... so I turned around and headed back.  It would be nice to be able to fight in the arena again.  Right now I\'m stuck with the Oja road and the texture that still doesn\'t load...

Already reported in bugtracker. Looking for fellow sufferers and possible fixes.

After the last update, I tried loading the game. It loads. But I see a new frame on the screen perhaps once every 15 seconds or so. Player killing tefusang #1 will be killing tefusang #2 by the time a new frame loads, and tef #1 will either show up as dead on the ground or possibly already have disappeared to respawn.

Windows like my buddy list also take 10+ seconds to show up after I click on them.

If I had quit the game last any closer to a tefusang, I\'d be dead before I\'d even know I was being attacked.

The game is unplayable for me at this point. Anyone having similar problems?

Aha! That would make sense. It hadn\'t occured to me that I had reached the limits of his teaching!

Leather Boots                           200 Tria
Leather Pants                           400 Tria

Do you know if this qualifies as light or medium armor?
And is it just me, or did Harnquist stop training the light armor skill?

Alas, my recruiting efforts seem to be for naught. No one seems to be interested in joining a new guild, particularly one centered around magic.  I believe I am abandoning the guild and looking to join an existing guild with a more stable membership.  Any suggestions for a good/neutral female mage?

Flame burst spell? Are there new glyphs available, or is a new combination?

Edit: Nevermind. Found the post where you discuss this very thing.

Hopefully soon there will be more ways to make money.  I\'m not really complaining since this is just an alpha.

The only other way I\'ve seen to get money is there is a rogue in the arena that give drops every once in a while.  The problem with that is 1) It doesn\'t fight back so it seems pretty cheap/lame 2) there is this guy that is almost ALWAYS there and he keeps a group so it\'s almost impossible to get to the thing anyway.

ah well

Why don\'t you try asking to be a part of the group sometime? Sure, you have to share  the loot.  But it\'s better than not getting any loot.
