    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    To add onto this. Clerics also get a damage soak bubble that is insta cast and not on the global recast timer (still has it's own short timer). So they should be the "best" healer, but not by that large of a margin. Which is needed, since the other two get stronger utility in haste(shm)...

    Weird, Asmond's editor made this "Watch on Youtube only" or is this really YouTube fucking with them?

    You can log onto the game, even if the test isn't active, and see your current characters and hit the campfire button to move around in a sandbox. Here are Human chain, human plate, and Wood Elf chain (forgot my rogue was Woody too):

    BB.com Misc Refugee Thread

    Just got my e-mail about this Misc refugee, WTF is happening in this thread?!? I mean, it's not like I have read this thread (mostly) and posted in it from the start or something. I read misc ~15 years ago, when I used to lift heavy, so that should mean I pass the purity test to post here...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Short races are shit often due to armor models being meh and a too low PoV (they're also ugly... well dwarfs aren't turrable). I can't ever play them in any game I have tried for any amount of time. Ogres supposedly have clipping issues and of course fitting in place. Lack of easily available...

    Windows 11

    It was a serious question. As far as I knew they were still doing security updates for the foreseeable future but I wouldn't put it past them to announce that they will be sending an update that tries to install win11. That or have it look like you must "upgrade" to Win11 and including a small...

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    From what I watched of season 3 I rooted for Taliesin to die because he basically recreated the shitty Molly character again. I was also rooting for his character to die as well. Not sure if I will ever start season 4 since splitting it up looks like it was so they could get their diversity...

    Yeah, that lull was great for splitting camps, but it did get me killed a few times when trying to lull +4 or higher over level (also, bosses seem immune or maybe the gobo boss was high resists). I used the shit out of it until I found my Grip of Shadows spell on my SK, which trivializes...

    Yes and maybe. Druids only currently have two ports, one close to the zone line to Glass Flats in Sungreet and one at the Woody city. I got a druid up to 16 and didn't see an AoE spell outside of root. I didn't get high enough level to mess with druid charms (two boxed in the undead dungeons for...

    Supposedly Nick mentioned in the Dev stream, about halfway through the last test, that they will probably have at least one more test. Then, toward the end of the test, one of the other devs also said they would be doing another test, not sure if it was during a different stream or on Discord...

    Be aware that if you fail Bone Construct you can't get your corpse back until someone (else) kills it, or a necro summons it; at least that's what I read. According to Discord, he death touches anyone that tries to leave his room that is on his agro table, along with anyone over level 20. That...

    America Recommendations

    Don't know much about settling in, as I also don't care for sitting at the beach and shit like that, but a road trip would certainly see a lot of Americana. Something like a tour up or down the Appalachian trail area (which is basically route 81 from Chattanooga, TN to Harrisburg, PA?). If it's...

    I talked to a lot of people just doing tradeskills and the chat is currently a nightmare. Especially with people who are used to modern chat and don't factor in easy to remember, spell, and type names when naming their character. My characters that I expected tells on were two syllables or less...

    Pluribus

    She needs to be various levels of unlikeable to get people to sympathize more with how "great" the hive mind might be. Then they will slowly pull back the curtain, like @TJT says, and during that time she becomes more relatable to a wider audience.

    Keyboards & Mice

    I think I used the Logitech G600 for 15+ years of WoW and it worked great (2 mice over that time period). If anything, the ring finger button was the most uncomfortable part of it and for normal games the thumb buttons could cause a bit of hand fatigue on the thumb (after 6+ hour gaming...

    I've given his work numerous chances, including Watchmen, and they go from mediocre to horrible. So yeah, pretty much written his projects off as not my thing. This show, on the other hand, looks to be traveling into the Vince Gilligan can do no wrong territory (although, yeah, it's way too...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    unfortunate While I like having control over my own hardware, I would certainly look into switching to SteamOS if they release it for general use (hopefully before windows 10 stops getting security updates). Otherwise I will probably stay on Win10 for another decade. I play too many old games...

    Tradeskills: You can skill up on failed combines on tradeskills last I leveled up tradeskills (last long test). I think they only changed gathering profs to make no skill up per fail, as I am pretty sure someone told me they skilled up JC using the wire trick this test (manually put in the next...

    I meant in EQ during Velious, but Wizards in MnM get the best/most ports (or so I have been told), so yeah, it's much easier to explore everything in this game too. For Vale in particular you need see invis up.

    Being one of the first people, at least on the server, to see WW is still a core gaming memory (even if I wasn't a raider and never saw NToV during Velious). A sneaky druid with egress could bypass a lot of the roadblocks, so was able to access every outdoor zone before even starting the xpac...

    What did they change about dragonriding/new flying? In the Dragonfurryfucker xpac it was great and much faster than old flying.

    That $80 a year has to be some deal they had going on. It was $10 a month years ago when they force added it to the Hulu Live subscription for "free" then months later jacked the price of Hulu by $10.

    That's not really a vendor issue though! There is a forge next to the woodworkers area in the docks, just to the east of the portal from north gate to the docks. Don't remember the vendor situation there though.

    As a crafter, I like the system, but yeah, it could be a little closer together. I haven't used the north side of town often but there looks to be a good cluster right by the gate. For the West bank area, the Night Market area could use a proper cook and an "armor" merchant, since leather is so...

    The vendor thing takes some getting used to, but I have found the system rather useful for farming items off the vendors. If I want cloth scraps, I just need to go look at the two vendors who buy them, not 100 different vendors across the city. I remember vendor farming in EQ too, so it's an...

    Everything medium and below fits in the Tailoring/LW/Enchanting bags. This includes the ones off the vendors and the ones they give if you pick the minor trait.

    I'm interested to hear how, if they can enforce it well enough, a no-box server combats the multi-box sociopaths that take pleasure from that or if there are enough of them that it wont matter as they will just form a huge guild to do it.

    It may depend on if vendors got wiped or still have old stock. Since enchanting a bar of ore to make any JC item now requires dust from a dropped magic item (implemented after the last 10 day test), I don't see too many people being able to make much jewelry just to vendor.
