Re: Saying hi

Hi Dove, I remember you, but I think I was mostly a lowly mort or a newbie hero back when you were still an active imm. :) I have to say though that I have learned from BR that my memory isn't that good for things I haven't thought about for twenty years. People check back into BR and I remember the...

Brodgar's sign quest 2024

Just posting here for Brod in case anyone checks here but not Facebook or BR notes:
Your first clue starts in quest headquarters!

You know the drill, no locate, teleport, or track. Morts only!

Deadline will be end of day Sunday EST 6/16/24 or until we crash/reboot.

Good luck!

Re: Dun Candrae hints?

Thanks! Yes, I have figured out the layering and found where it leads. In the announcement from 2004 from Brodgar it says: The area is just south of Malacandra and is for levels 1 through 10. It's a relatively small area, but introduces a brand new type of puzzle and also if you read carefully, the ...

Re: My character from the 90s...

One thing I am a bit confused about...HappyCamper's profile lists Cardigan as an alt and in the ChitChat room of the forum recently the HappyCamper account posted a message. So are both characters yours? (I am a little confused by the separate forum accounts). Can you log into HappyCamper now (or an...

Dun Candrae hints?

Could someone give me a hint on the puzzle (puzzles?) in Dun Candrae? The announcement from 2004 says there is one at least. I think I figured out one thing by using my imm tricks to examine the rooms closely and find something hidden, but even stepping through every immediately accessible room and ...

Re: What are the proper stats for a level 50 shield?

I have never studied the combat math well enough to contribute to the detailed analysis. It is an interesting question though of what stats a shield would need to be competitive with dual wielding. One other aspect you might consider is that if you are balancing the ratio of damaged dealt to damage ...

Re: Stranger to you, still mourning Tom's death, does anyone remember?

I have fond memories of Tom. You mentioned the posts from Kiri and Erin in the forum here. Just in case you hadn't seen, there are also some more quotes from players about Tom on his immortal page . Also, if you go to the newsletters page and put "Tom" in the search box, you can find some traces of ...

That almost makes sense to me. Was it the case that when a player came out of the wait state that the mob always got a crack at tripping the player before the player could trip/flee/etc? I'm just curious because whenever I got tripped it seemed like I pretty much never got a chance to do anything ag...

Changes : )

Well, I don't want to clutter EB's changelog, so I started a new thread just to say that it's really cool to see some updates/fixes/new features being added to BR : ) I've been really busy with school for a while now, so I haven't had time to play, but I still lurk the forums and it's cool to see th...

I sneak on and off semi-regularly and sometimes even say hello, but I think my crew membership might have been revoked.

I was just trolling through the Area Building section of the Forums -- there sure were a lot of great discussions going on in 2003 into 2004. Sadly, there hasn't been a single post in this category for 2006 yet. I thought I'd bump this thread because it's one of the most general. Look at all those a...
