I literally went faint!
its okay, Duster and I have talked, he is turning everything over to me as soon as this new update is in.

soon, we'll have lots of new features, a few of which are:
  • current gold is turning to copper, and item prices will be changed to reflect that.
  • coins will be stackable inventory items that have weight, 100 coins = 2lbs
  • ig day and night cycles will be changed from the current 12:1 ratio to 4:1 (meaning that there will be 6 hour days etc three hours of day and three hours of night.
  • soft level cap of 12, after which xp will be dramatically reduced until level 15. after level 15, xp gains will be reduced further, and most xp will be dm event and forum rp rewards only. hard level cap of 21.
  • level limits are xp based, not level based, so ecl races have effective reduced level limits (Example: drow are an ecl +2 race, therefore their hard level cap is effectively 19).
  • inherent PC stats will be limited to 19 + racial mod. please plan your builds accordingly
  • 3b20 is being re-evaluated and is currently no longer enforced
  • current PCs will have their current xp scaled to reflect new level limits.
  • all monsters and encounters rescaled to reflect servers new PC levels
  • leadership feat will grant the pc a npc cohort
  • Tieflings, aasimar, planetouched, favored souls. warlocks, paladins, and many prestige classes will be exceptional pc application only.
  • learn language will be a skill
  • skills and skill points are changing to pathfinder rules.
  • and much much more...

Many of those new features are a turn off for me sadly. The lv cap at 12 and xp penalty to 20 is the worst offender... Limiting ability scores and reseting everyone's lv does not help. If these go in i may not be able to stay on this server. This would punish players and limit character development too much. :cry: Please dont...

Clearly some places do not have a "Poisson D'Avril". In any case, it's past noon anywhere civilized. :lol:

Cease and desist or I'll ban you from the forums.

Of course Duster cannot be easily replaced! I do not want him to go.

April Fools!



But I still want his stuff.

Flying to Sweden tomorrow and will be there for some time. Online time will be sporadic at first, as I catch up with family and friends. :)


If you have a need to RP with Telia, please send me a PM to arrange it instead of wandering about and waiting for it to happen as that may be more difficult.
