icesus

This idea has multiple parts: 1. Re-integrate all the types of skins into leatherworking, giving them their own pros/cons. Leather - Pro: Common, easy to work items that can be found everywhere. con: Often low sell value, lower chance of glows, and weaker glows. Fur - Pro: Common, often high value s...

Mounted archery, especialy the idea that a player can use his mount to stay mostly out of combat and fire continously, sounds like an exelent idea. Taking damage will not seriously compromise much since most of the time the player takes damage moveing silently and running away anyhow. This will help...

1. Many items reduce darkness, even when within a container (i have about 6 items in my backpack that make the backpack quite dark, although not dark enough yet). 2. Using DnD ideas, it is perfectly reasonable to allow higher level Dark elves to be able to cast Orb of Darkness as an innate racial ab...

I am assuming (keeping in mind what assume means) that salves are under (re) construction. I was making numerous salves (including antidote ones) and they were working fine, but about 3 days or so after i posted ideas of how various salves could be tuned, poison ones suddenly broke. Another minor pi...

Speaking of, at one point in my midnight rambelings, i forgot to mention that a possible uptune to make fishers more acceptable would be to have them have some small boat/raft making skills (fishing boat) and a bit of (small%) aquatic combat (got to fight those sturgens! Actualy would be more for th...

I'm just a little baffled as to what sort of aquatic creatures would be high - cash? Most people consider killing alligators, anacondas, and ciaman's to be "cash" mobs (as in reasonably easy to kill animals with 4 good value skins). Likewise, many of the monsters in aquatic terrain (above...

Preface: Please keep in mind throughout this text that Icesus is Icesus, which means that ideas that usually would seem stupid, such as fighting a whale from a boat, is no stranger then having a squirrel attack you after you stick a longsword into it. Some of the ideas presented use this to my advan...

During high amounts of light (be it from torches, spells, items, or highsun) dark elves take a certin amount of damage every few seconds (15?). If your hp is high (100%) the damage is minimal and poses no threat whatsoever, although it will effectivly slow down your regen rate quite a bit if it is n...

in addition to the idea i had with healing salves (general: things to fix):

One idea, perhaps to add to the major healing salve if it is implimented, would to make it both heal, and heal ep. As in it both heals and energizes, making you less weary.

this sounds like something to put in ideas forum, not newbie

Quests rarely grant experence, or at least no where near the kind of experence needed to level. If you want to level, go kill stuff. As for rewards, the rewards vary, some of them stupidly bad, some of them fairly good, depending on how hard they are in both types of monsters encountered, and diffic...

There are 2 complaints that i hear from rangers; that rangers are paper tanks that cannot survive close combat for very long (rangers often take races with low con, we dont get much con from levels, and if i remember, we get less defensive skills/maxes then light army), and that wilderness tactics/a...

Ranger tunes and tweaks: log of everburning is a spell that makes torches last longer, and is available at level 26 or so. meanwhile, extended vision lets you see farther into the light/dark spectrum without need for torches, and is gotten in the first 10 levels. Aka, it is mostly a waste of code. A...
