    Not quite sure what you're going on about here; only change asked on the org thing was "please make sure that there's not a huge disparity."  When the numbers were first discussed, it was something like 500 for top org and 100 fo…
  • Another concern: You can't do village org comm quests if you're enemied to the controlling village.

    Any way to make the comm quests check for the underlying village enemy status instead of the controlling org, so peop…

    1) Mag has tons of spectres, but it takes multiple spectres to make a spike.  They can only make about as many spikes per hour as other orgs do for their own power quest.  Still, there is a difference in difficulty (Glom's is the…
  • (Quote) I had requested that the difference in rewards between #1 and #6 not be an insurmountable gulf, else it just puts struggling orgs even further behind.  I personally am glad to see them being this similar (though the numbers do seem hi…
  • Sure feels like a downgrade to me.  Getting to discussions is multiple clicks, everything is bigger and blocker and involves a great deal more scrolling... I am not a fan myself!
  • (Quote) I haven't heard that?  We have a position that doesn't begin with an "a" or "an" or "the" and haven't run into problems with it.
  • Magnagora's power quest is the most "difficult" (and generates the most experience).  I used spectres for leveling even way back when I was grinding towards 80, handing them in for gold and extra experience was quite profitable.
  • I don't know that forums are the best place to report this?  Support@lusternia dot com will send an email that flags multiple people, or an issue (only flags a few) or a bug report seem like far better ways of getting attention for a bug.
  • Why not a mix of both?  As long as you are at or under 30, or if less than 50 hours playtime, it is a free switch.  This way you cover fast levelers and people who hang out figuring out how other aspects of the game work before they really ge…
  • (Quote) Click-to-vote would be nice.  Just tap the solutions you want instead of having to figure out / remember the syntax.

  • Steingrim has way too many posts to reasonably reply to, but a lot of good points.  I think the best next step is to have @Estarra provide a clearly stated go…

    Preferably each tradeskill would have something that people can use on a regular basis.  Bookbinders are great in this regard; kirigamis and wetfolds especially, but origami in general is a pretty good desi…

    No, it is completely directed at you.
    I hesitated to respond to you because you have a history of attempting to attack the poster instead of pursuing the argument itself, and there was not a lot of point in doing so any…

    If all you are going to do is make stuff up out of whole cloth, I see no purpose in engaging further with you on this.

    It is not going to happen anyways, so it is simply a waste of time on everyone's pa…

    No it doesn't.  Put your clothing in a clothing rack and reset your glamrock whenever it times out with a script.  Non-decay is all over Lusternia all over the place, and the reason it exists is because people didn't like it and …

    Because begging's gold got nerfed to 20% of what it used to be a while ago (maybe almost a year at this point?).

    Mobs slowly generate gold the longer they've been alive / unbegged from, so if you keep b…
  • I have a permanent centaur steak.

    I really, really do not like decay.
  • What about something along the lines of the following (numbers can be adjusted):
    1) Stop having village prices change every time someone buys something or does a commquest.
    2) Instead, prices change at the turn of the month.…

    I still feel like the easiest change is just making farmers & miners non-greedy.  It requires no coding changes afaik.  There was concern about taking stuff from your own miners and turning it in at the same village, but this…

    You cannot feasibly do that now.  The scarcer the resource, the more expensive it gets.  You also cannot buy more than ten commodities from a village store at a time, and every time you make a purchase the price jumps even more.<…
  • We still need real and actually doable village quests for metal / veggie / fruit comms that can be done like other things.  If you introduce scarcity with no way of acquiring these things short of raiding other orgs, you are not putting us in a…
  • I used to have a whole intro script I used for teaching new EGs when they came out of the portal.  I ended up deciding that it wasn't super beneficial to force newbies through it.  Lots just wanted it done asap.  Alts did not need it, true newb…
  • I did see you were in Glomdoring.  Ask Veyils (aka Deichtine) for an invite to Shadow Kindred if she's around.  Yendor and I usually play later in the day and we also induct.  That is our clan for asking questions, because sometimes help files …
  • Hm.  Additional thought.  We now have two different pinned threads for newbies (this one which is kind of crowded and in many ways outdated), and the Midkemian one.  in Newbie Difficulties/Troubles/Concerns Comment by Xenthos January 2019
  • Hello Lhayne!  I am not sure what org you are in (do not have access to the game right now) but one of the best things to do is peruse CGHELP WELCOME (I think that is the file name, CGHELP INDEX gives the full list of collegium files).  The col…
  • Which would then be 750 retirement credits (when it gets halved again).  So all of that would explain why my retirement value only dropped a couple thousand, dingbats already squashed down a ton.
