Hey hey just wanted to say whats up. Been keeping tabs on this site for a while now since you started from scratch. And boy can i say your doing an amazing job..This site has so much potential its unreal.

Well to keep it short usually i do an introduction blah blah. But im sure nobody really cares anyways lol.

So couple questions being that i didnt find anything on what im curious about but i could of passed over it. Will check the forums again just incase after.

About the stats of items, it looks like there are some copy and paste from diablo2. I see Light Radius (#) in certain items, does light radius effect anything ?

Being that this game draws alot of everquest, and i know lifesteal wasnt in everquest BUT... any chance lifesteal will be added? Could overthrow/overpower certain melee classes.

Question about the rare mobs, are they're rare mobs in every zone? I've found a couple in certain zones and some zones i've found none, they seem to be pretty rare but.. that's good.

Thats it for now, dont reply if its already on the forums no need to bother you because im sure your devoting a shitton of time to this just from my experience with coding.

Dwelling deeper into the forums! TTYS

SLAIN

One more annoyance.

Item quality is effected by mob level or zone level range?

One more, are the loot tables randomized throughout the game and varied via zone. Like will i only find an FBSS in guk? Or cna i find it in the same level zones? Or can i find it anywhere at any level.. with varied stats based on the level zone i was in?

LAST one i swear (for now)

Do bows count in damage to your main attack? Or is the damage/delay just ignored for bows and you only gain the stats?

Also i've noticed that certain classes are actually able to equip certain armor pieces that they should've beable too. Like i equipped some plate gloves on my ranger. I've noticed some classes dont have this problem. But some do. It could be the items being checked as different equip pieces? AKA plate armor is red for a ranger, but was able to equip.

Was in qeynos hills killing. Seemed to run into this little problem twice recently now. Doesnt seem to be triggered by anything as far as i know. Can eventually run from it!



You found a magic item and immediately discarded it.
Gesobab says, "Attacking, Master."

Your Slam hits for undefined damage.
Your Crescent Cleave hits for undefined damage.

I believe he said light radius helps you keeping from getting ambushed.

Any class can equip any armor, however if it's not right for your class you'll receive penalties.

I'm not sure about the items dropping, but I've found the same ring in several different zone. Still no FBSS though!

Ah roger that, preciate the reply!

FBSS would be nice, Looking for one for my monk to bad no Kunark in the game, would like a fungi tunic for him, and a fungi staff for my Shaman

Slain, thanks for the great compliments. It helps to keep me motivated after the endless bug reports I'll try to answer your questions:

- Yes, as others have said, light radius affects your ambush rate. Higher light radius will reduce your ambush rate across the board.
- Life steal is probably the most requested feature. For that reason, I think it will be added, but not any time soon. There are other higher priorities right now.
- There are NOT rare mobs in every zone, but there are rare mobs in most zones. I think this is something that might get revisited. I have thought that each zone should have at least one or two.
- Yes, this does take a shitton of my time! I only wish it took more, but I have a lot going on IRL, but I get a lot done but pumping coffee directly into my bloodstream.
- Item quality is affected by the mob's level.
- The loot tables are not like EQ. They are random. You can find FBSS in a lot of places. So the camping strategy doesn't really apply in this game. Almost every "unique" item has a range themselves, so it's rare to find two of the exact same unique.
- Okay, so, the armor thing. Anyone can wear anything. This was a deliberate design decision. However, I don't think you'll like the results too much if you go full platemail with your wizard. It will slow down your cast time, run speed, and your skill speed (global cooldowns). So you have to balance the benefits of the item with the penalties it incurs.
- That's an interesting bug. Next time open the error console (ctrl+shift+J) and see if there's an obvious error. I'll look into that, but more info would help.

I think most zones have rares, not all. Some have more than others. Unrest, Mistmoore have been the best to me.
Item quality is affected by the mob level, not the zone, and I don't believe the uniques are tied to certain zones or mobs.
The armor penalties influence your cast time and run chance. The more "red" (too heavy) items you equip, the more they suffer.
FBSS and other "top end" items seem pretty rare. I've seen tons of uniques and I think I've only stumbled upon 4-5 of them. FBSS, Dragon Claw Bracer, Dragon Claw Cowl, EBW, and Mithril 2H sword.

Roger that i'll check for the bug again, preciate the extra info as its late and the GF is calling me in i'll have more input tomarrow. Be easy peeps get some rest.

Now...to remember NOT to clear my cache lawlz

For some reason the game isnt loading up. It shows me the nevergrind.com screen with the links and whatnot, but theres no character creation or slots or anything. Tryed switching browsers to see if it fixed it and both loaded the same page. You might be working on it dunno. Just a heads up

edit* Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'innerHTML' of undefined

Sounds like a cache problem. Are you using Chrome? It's kind of notorious for holding cached data. CTRL+SHIFT+DEL's menu is the best way I've found.

Yeah im using chrome, but i tryed it on internet explorer and it still did the same thing. When i hit ctl+shift+J i get 1 error.

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'innerHTML' of undefined

Then when i click managecharacter 1638 it shows

if(my.job!=="Bard") { CS.cssingalterId.innerHTML=("Alteration: "); }

as the error

Try now. I think I fixed it.

Negative, thought it was about to because it took longer to load the stuff but nope.

Same error? or?

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'innerHTML' of undefined

if(my.job!=="Bard") { CS.singalterId.innerHTML=("Alteration: "); }

Yup

Okay. Gotta eat dinner here, but I will resolve this. Thanks.

Roger that, appreciate you looking into it.

Just curious but, if others can load/play what would be causing only my 2 computers to get errors?

Web browsers are pretty weird sometimes. Not exactly a technical answer, but I've seen some pretty flaky stuff that is hard to troubleshoot sometimes. It gets complicated because there are so many web browsers and they all do things a little differently.

Alright man. Give it a shot now. I think I figured out the problem.
