With the new STR/DEX mechanic, I had to hammer down the edges of stat progression and that involved changing about 100 items. Did I miss some? Clearly. ARE ALL ITEMS SUPPOSED TO BE GREAT? NO, HOWEVER PLEASE tell me if there are GLARING item issues w/r/t this change. A monk-usable item with...

I have made several changes to the Monk class and they have met with varying degrees of success (mostly lackluster). I attribute this mostly to my own poor vision of what Monks were as a whole from a broader perspective. I had no solid picture to work toward, so most changes were directionless...

Please help me with the following project: Have you ever accidentally killed a banker or a healer or a random NPC somewhere in your life that has ruined your faction permanently with no recourse but to petition and wait? If so, please reply with the faction or NPC name or enough identifying...

Fortune Favors the Diverse is the classy name for the fact that raid encounters designed for 18 players that by default drop two random items have a chance of dropping a third. This chance does not exist before 11 unique classes are alive and directly involved in the kill (i.e. have generated...

After 12 hours of Hateification in the Arena, we have some downright amazing results. Some of you are haters to the core... you are probably hating right now even though the competition is WAY OVER! Here are the full results by class, with notable achievements bolded: WARRIOR (using Merciless...

1) Ability to take things seriously. 2) Modicum of code experience (I will test you). 3) Time to work (do not respond if you spend 40hrs/week at work and then another 40hrs/week taking care of your 18 children). I have too many projects that are half-done and I would like to short-cut...

Who should do in a perfect world the most DPS? Post your lists here! I will go first! This is in general, figure a simple fight with little moving and also not a 2 hour long fight. If you disagree post a FULL LIST and reasons why: Wizard Rogue Necromancer Magician Ranger Monk...

I just want to explain the thought process that went into this changing of seven or eight(?) key items that happened last patch and it's not all the same thing so I will discuss them each and then do a summing up at the bottom. - Two items had worn run speed removed from them. This is a cute...

Current Best Crafted Armor is level 45 and very expensive. I propose at least one more tier of crafted armor in the following manner: 1) Drop combine price of deepmetal/imphide/shadowsilk to make it reasonable to purchase at 45-50 (again it is recommended level 45!) 2) Add a way to...

I really dislike the state of the player economy as it sits right now! I do not like the list system for selling (i do like it for sending stuff between people though) and I do not like the whole change that went in about 5 years ago that introduced BoE and Unbinders and Huge Vendor Price...

Yes, I am looking at fixing tomes. No, this thread is not really about that! EVEN AS IT STANDS RIGHT NOW, eventually you run out of things to spend exp on... but you keep getting it! You can't help it! Eventually you need something to spend that exp on and it's not going to be more tomes...

Hello Dalaya! I am going through the Special Rules found in an abundance of threads on the forum and I am trying to code them out so that they are not necessary. I am slowly developing new technologies to streamline this process and I hope to consolidate the rules back down to 'do not call...

Introducing Hardcore Character Mode on Shards of Dalaya! Consider this a "beta" if you must but it's not "beta" in any way that will save you from death. !!!HARDCORE CHARACTERS Q&A!!! 1. What is a Hardcore Character? A Hardcore Character is just like any other character in Shards of Dalaya...

YOU! KNOW! What is wrong with this server! You have published essays on it! You know that if you just had a chance you could turn it all around... give this place the content it sorely needs! Fix all those weird inconsistencies! Make the raid fight / exp zone / outdoor quest hub that reminds...

HI! I am Slaariel and I really do like PUGs. All raid content I have made (except 1 mob Woldaff asked me to make in Yclist) is puggable and I have no problems at all with a bunch of people getting together and killing stuff etc. HERE is the problem. I know that the recent PUG rules make...

my bad! login is up and running again though

A large stumbling block to the server upgrade is the insane licensing fees! We would be on the hook for a couple thousand dollars for Windows Server 2008 and a handful of RDP licenses. The software isn't really negotiable but if you have some neat tipz or trix to get this stuff legit on the...

Okay, that is kind of a lie! We need someone who can write dialog for some npcs and by 'some' I mean thousands!!! Do you want to write dialog for mobs? Do you even have that ability? Can you write full dialog trees for the most minor NPCs to give a zone that specific flavor it needs? TIME...

Please welcome content devs whose identities remain a secret! Their codenames are Dev-Nowaij, Dev-Alexxis, Dev-Supreme, and GM-Rari. They have made content already and are working on really exciting stuff right now! Can't wait to see how they will all crash the server! CODE DEV APPS: No...
