- RCR NPC in Nexus should give 100% XP restore/transfer, for limited time only - dialog will indicate 50% but should get 100%. Take Screenshot before RCR in case you have problems.
The above is in place for a limited time only to allow players to RCR their PCs to make the most of the recent update.

It allows full RCR; full XP, and no level cap of 20. A level 30 character is recreated into a level 30 character.

We will announce in advance before this function is turned off (likely a week in advance); and it will not be turned off during this period of ironing out post update bugs!

Is the level cap 20 as before? Or is a total rebuild for higher levels possible now?

Thank you for the 100% RCR. Looking forward to using it once SS gets its proper Lore class skills set. :)

Can people sacrifice xp now and get 100 % xp back even after it's gone?

Just a reminder:

When RCRing, it's not a great idea to use a campfire for your gear. Please ask a player that you trust to assist you, or a DM if you have nobody else (and they are not too busy). If the server crashes, your gear is gone. If another player steals from your campfire, your gear is gone. So play it safe, don't lose your gear!

DMs, if you end up helping someone transfer their items, remember to export your DM avatar once you have possession of the items. If you crash on your DM avatar, the inventory will disappear if you do not save that avatar to your local DM vault.

The Custom Changes to this World (http://www.bgtscc.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=49041) and Custom Classes (http://www.bgtscc.net/viewtopic.php?p=623208#p623208) threads have been updated to show which classes:
- The requirements of the new subdivided Lore skills.
- The new disguise skill .

The classes available in the basic game and expansions have been updated to reflect their Lore skill access. This has not been done yet for Custom classes, but these will be updated later today

Credit to DM Ninox and Chambordini for all their hard work!

Please please please check your builds, If you have a class that has a new LORE specific requirement you WILL NOT be able to take the next level up without those lore specific skill points... you MUST RCR your current character.

This is my understanding. thanks. :)

Wow guys, this lore implementation is screwy. Seems awful random to me. What's the point of this? Some have special lore requirements, others don't? When did you plan to tell us about this significant change? Its seems a little late. And saying you can just RCR is not acceptable. Its not that easy to RCR; you have to have help and the server needs to be stable. Not liking this. :(

I have to agree with Teo... I do not fully like this either. Why has this lore change been done exactly?

The Techsmith documentation says "Cleric" for required classes. Is that a new change? Previously cleric or arcane was allowed.

Can someone clear that up?

Thank you!

This has been done to reflect the PNP breakdown of Knowledge skills, so that one skill does not represent all fields of knowledge, and one character cannot be expert in everything. As lore is an RP skill, that is DM moderated, we have made this change to allow it to be better RPed, DCs to be more appropriately set and, primarily, to encourage RP around knowledge specialisms.

The Lore requirements in all but one case reflect the knowledge requirements in PNP and thus are not random, but reflective of the expertise required for the class.

This is not a feedback thread, however. So I will lock this thread - if there are further questions, PM me, or you can open a thread in suggestions and bug reports

Please note, .bic edits and custom feats "grandfathered" from early in the server's history will not be replicated across RCRs. This means if your character has one of these, we will not re-grant/re-edit these things.

Grandfathered items cannot be transferred to new PCs; they can be transferred during an RCR of an existing PC.
