Return Questions
Played for many years a while back, stopped playing about 5 or 6 years ago. A lot of changes since then obviously. So i have some questions to help me get back on my feet if someone wouldnt mind answering. Apologies if these are already answered somewhere. (Also sorry if my name shows up weird, wouldnt let me sign in as Barendur for some reason...)
1. Biggest question is the new SSC. It sounds awesome and Nexus is super nice now. I know Vadi and others have put a lot of work into Mudlet and i used to use m&m back in the day. So the question is can i use Nexus for all my curing? As in i plan on PVPing at some point so would go to mudlet if its a necessity to be decent, but if its just used for tracking defenses and things im not too worried about that. Having the map/wound/aff/communication plugins built into nexus is a fair trade for tracking defenses to me. Sure its possible to build auto-harvester/influencer in Nexus too. Other downsides might not be thinking of? Used to Nexus would randomly forget your triggers and such...
2. Noticed my morningstars didnt have stats anymore (believe i remembered how to look, weaponprobe), so does that mean morningstar is the same as hammer now? As far as speed/wounding/damage all weapons are on same page? If so thats nice, always hated having to have separate sets. If thats the case, seems like bashing would be slower now, without speed hammers. Whips the go to now? Are they worth it at all?
3. Biggest positive ive noticed so far is lesson reduction, came back to 7k lessons and maxed out all my skills. Im a herbalist now and plan on staying that way, if i skillflex to forger and get masterarmour, is there a reason to keep forging combat-wise? Used to be forging runes helped by adding some stats, but those are gone now so guessing getting the armour and switching out is best now? Any other suggestions for this? I like the small combat bonuses some provide but also like the bit of gold you can make when you get burnt out bashing.
4. Daily credits sound awesome, had a membership back in the day, wouldnt mind putting some money back into the game if i can get back into it enough. How many credits is it possible to get now just by bashing/influencing/adding power? Dont really do much of the rest really...
5. Guilds are gone. This made me sad more than any of the other changes/nerfs/discussions i read. I dont RP that much, and the majority of my RP was tied into being a Paladin, so now im kind of lost on that front. Is there a reason to join a guild other than having another channel to speak on? Not sure which one to join or if i will either way, this was a curious decision that caught me off-guard.
6. Noticed warriors were changed from the ground up. Not going to take everyones word on it that they are in a bad spot right now, still going to stick to bonecrusher as it and the classes before always had their ups and downs and ive always enjoyed (possibly the little RP?) being a bonecrusher. So it seems they work like monks kind of now with modifiers? Any beginner tips on this would help as im kind of completely confused on this change as well.
7. I know im forgetting stuff, thought about all my points at work, and now cant remember half of them. If you think i need to know anything else, please enlighten me. And please dont bring negatives to this, ive read negative comments and after reading through a ton of them still seen through where the devs are really reaching out and going above and beyond in many respects, so hats off to them. Estarra and the team have always done a good job in my opinion, though everything might not work out the way we think they should or want them to i think they have the best interest of the game at heart and will get the right things back on track...
