I just lost several hours of my life to the release of the EQ Reborn server. The old nostalgia fired up and I figured why not jump back in the saddle before I was reminded how not-all-that-great of a game EQ was at first. Uber grindy, very few quests, practically requires a wiki, dead end BS...

Holy Days are a really interesting bit of flavor and occasionally gameplay fun, but they happen very infrequently- 14 days out of 365 or less than 4% of the time. That got me thinking: Why does Dalaya have a 365 day year? I mean, other than being a lazy copy and paste of Erff's year (minus .25...

So today someone decided to break the boxing rule and this happened: I think the rules need to be modified to acknowledge community characters (Project Grin, Project Draist, and any others that can prove they aren't a clever ploy for personal advancement) and stop throwing them in jail...

Since the other thread was closed immediately after two members of staff said completely different things I guess I will open a new thread to point out what I just said: The rules says you have to kill something to establish the claim- not within 30 minutes. If I am reading it right you have...

From the Policy Plaza thread "Raid Encounter and 6 Man Content Rules" it appears that someone changed: and that it was done by a ghost: Now I am not going to start tinfoiling about how this came on the heels of a claim dispute and who is in what guild because there are some problems here...

She said she couldn't bear another lecture about lore from Marthog.

The fame system is a really cool idea which is more or less ignored or forgotten because the system is so broken. Fame is rarely available, dolled out in very very small amounts relative to the cost of rewards, and bloated with fairly pointless filler rewards. This is unfortunate because most...

I got a fever and the only cure is more Morrowind. Well, sort of. Morrowind has aged like dog shit on an August lawn, so instead of playing GOTY I was wondering if anyone had input on which was better: Morrowind Overhaul, Morroblivion, or wait around for Skywind to be finished. Or something else...

For most of the summer this lengthy thread filled with a general consensus on Paladin lacking and a dozen good, and a hundred not-good, ideas on how to fix it was active and even had a few posts by staff which may have been a paladin "whining" thread first. The thread apparently got someones...

Fist of Shiritri The parser and wiki claim this spell is a rain (as does the orange spell gem), but it is not. I have a sneaking suspicion (or read it once, who can remember) that this spell never worked as a rain because of the stun component and was just sort of forgotten. It sure would be...

For too long begging has done nothing. Here's the plan: when you click begging you pray to your deity for a minor boon. Pariahs would, of course, be hit with a random Lightning spell. The boons could be deity specific or just drawn from a random list. Nothing major, just some flavor.

Kickstart project from the makers of Quest for Glory! If you are not familiar with Quest for Glory you can still salvage your horrible, wasted, life because they are available on steam now! If nothing else, do it for the Meeps.

Druid dots and how generally disliked they are come up fairly frequently, here are two threads from the last year that mention it if anyone wants/needs a refresher: http://forum.shardsofdalaya.com/showthread.php?t=25620 http://forum.shardsofdalaya.com/showthread.php?t=25312 Mission Statement...

The duration of the Necromancer spell Relic: Master of Death seems too short. This is a minor inconvenience, but an inconvenience all the same as it requires frequent gem swapping and asking for shrinks and potentially losing a boatload of mana regen mid fight (which can obviously be planned...

I recently started playing again and after starting two characters and doing the Newport Sewers bounty quests offered by Guardsman Stanton noticed a very minor, though annoying, "problem". Stanton offers exp/faction for handing in up to 20 Ratman Hoods, Beetle Pinchers, and Sewer Rat Tails...

The first step in this quest line is harder (requires you to be higher lvl) then the second, third, and possibly fourth step... that does not seem right. to solo Janitor Tomin a mage would probably have to be 16+ to solo ratmen 7-8 to solo brutes 12ish didn't do the fourth step lol So that...

Ok, not really, just plain ol' me. After a stint in WoW (hooray for button mashing) I am TOTALLY returning to SoD, that is as soon as my brother returns my discs as I foolishly deleted my files- sigh. I checked Fomelo and my Necro still exists, so I suppose I have one of those to play (though...

The subject of duos has been discussed down to the bone, but what about trios? For clarification, and not to get banned, I am not talking about three-boxing, but playing with someone (GF) while two boxing. I know there are endless possibilities when you combine three toons, but I have some...

Would it be possible for someone to make a sticky that details the changes that have been made to classes (versus on Live)? This is one of the first things I, and probably anyone who played on live, wanted to know, and after reading through dozens of strings I'm still unsure what changes were...
