Now I actually envy you. If I was in Vegas and Icesus was down, I'd figure out what to do real quick. Bellagio, Table 1. Say hi to Doyle for me.

well thats three hours wasted, still don't know what happend all I know is if someone screwed up how bout punishing THEM and not all of us. and if it was something wrong with the new guild again why punish all of us?

I think you're taking Misrobo a little too literally. 29823457 people ...

Not a huge idea by any means. As it stands right now tailoring skill does not exactly replicate all the options you have at the seamstress. Resizing at the smithy or tailoring defaults to making eqs optimal to your race size. Smithy, however, also has an option to resize <to min>, making smallest eq ...

Here is a small suggestion to improve the wiki.
I'm a complete noob when it comes to upper end EQs. Some of the items are commonly referred to by a name that is different from it's short description. Nera dagger belt, grief's end, etc, etc. Perhaps an alternative armours/weapons page where noobs ...

I'm looking for a client to use from work. What I mean by portable client is something that can be carried on a USB stick without having to install it. Fly under the radar from command prompt and never enter into windows registry. The computers at work use windows XP, if that helps. I'm sure it can ...

So, can I stop holding my breath now ? It is beginning to hurt a little.

Sarcasm aside, is there an ETA on this project ?

I have my doubts about the losing glow one, it's nice in theory but it would remove a small but "vital" way for money to exit the monetary system we have.

I think that reason why people walk around in shadowy glow eq is simply the fact that it takes time to restore and recharge a 15-piece set. I ...

Long legs? Reduced movement endurance point cost in all terrain. No change in combat.
I thought we already had that. It is called long stride

lbd bonus? would likely take alot of pdf, maybe fill that void in the 750 region. Minmaxer's dream.

I vote 'yes' with both hands. And one foot too ...

Ok, some more random musings.

Without access to the code its hard to figure out how things work exactly. I speculate that the lbd check if performed when you succeed in the skill, even if it is currently at 0%. So, camping, for example, can be learned from 0. The skill is actually activated through ...

I figured I'd bump up this old thread.

So far in my experience melee skill proven to be very elusive. Its very hard to lbd in a fighter-type guild, because you need it to advance levels, and you're stuck at low levels trying to learn the damn thing. Perhaps, the ideal solution in not to try to ...

Yes, this is an open letter to the retard who stole my loot twice in the last two days.
When I leave stuff on the ground in the outworld location, hoping that nobody finds it - ok, that was my own stupidity. But when you come back the next and deliberately dig it up from a covered up hole in the ...

I tried an experiment recently. Optimizing my character build by taking maximum benefit of learnable by doing skills. 90% of lbd skills are relatively straight forward, you use them and you learn them, just as the description says. Then there are the 10% that proven a little tricky.

Throwing ...

DISCLAIMER - I've never done any serious eq in Icesus, so I'm mostly going by Yoz'es description of it.

When I just started playing Icesus, I really liked the idea of the mage guild - WOW! They actually had spell components, and you got to cuztomize your own spells, that's something I've never seen ...

It appears the lag is back.
Could Idles, please, reset again... well, whatever it was that he reset the last time ?

No, you're not the only one. The game was alternating between painfully slow and completely unplayable the last week for me as well. I'm not quite sure what to make of it. I hear about half the mud complaining about excruciating lag, and the other half playing just fine.
