Realistically skinning an animal isn't something you can screw up after you've done it hundreds of times, but even with 100 skill, decent knife etc you're really just throwing a dice each time you skin. There is always going to be a random chance of screwing something up, no matter how skilled you ...

Yes, with the exception of the abilities that go up with level in guild, this is EXACTLY how falconers was explained to me (except that it would not be a creature in a party slot, but act like a player who rides a mount. AKA it might take damage, but would essencialy be considered part of the player...

Sounds like something Bel was talking about with Falconers guild. Not that they would be familiars, but that you would have creatures that would have certin abilities that would affect the charecter.

Other then that, icesus is icesus.

I've been using Roaclient forever. I don't actualy know much about how to fine tune clients, but i have tons of aliases for hunting (hunt signs) crafting (leatherworking, dragonscale crafting and fletching/bowery) and such. I use hilites for everything under the sun that i want to draw attention to ...

There already are the "serpent scale" itehms which are supposed to boost mage damage I would not trade spmax for more damage (In the interest of full disclosure, The following, while on subject, would benefit me as much as it would mages.) FYI, serpent scale items are intended to be caste...

How could casters be brought in par with offies on exp, or with archers on eq. My suggestion is bring up the damage. A lot Attempting to approach this from both sides, two suggestions: (note had mages in mind when wrote this) One thing I have noticed from the few parties where mages are around, is ...

For wolf, Puppy. (background: Puppy was my ranger's nickname for the dire winter-wolf that was about 5 foot at the shoulder. D&D npc) For cat: Uber-pussy (background: buddy's mount. Dire Tiger that had better Bab then he did. Basicly a Tiger that is as big as a warhorse.) For tree: Those Ent fro...

Methinks there are not enough throwing axes that are worth a crap though There are not very many bows that are worth a crap either. Fix it the same way archers do: give wilders an ability to create throwing weapons, perhaps from the animals they kill (like totems). That, or give them throwing abili...

There should be a slight change and maybe a downtune on indoor and or urban combat across the whole guild Are you talking about an indoor/urban penalty for rangers or wilders? If you are talking about for wilders, that makes perfect sense, they are an outdoors guild. If you are talking about ranger...

Spells hit just like archery/throwing. Mage spells, off healer spells, pretty much any ranged back row spell will get the damage bonus. I'm not sure about sorc spells or coven spells. Thanks, I didn't know spells counted as ranged for First Shot. If anyone knows about sorc or coven spells (infecti ...

Hunting Faq.

Hunting, that fine art of gentlemen, is one of the more difficult to understand of the "idle" skills. There are multiple skills that affect it, in addition to hunt masteries and stats, and the number of skills skyrocket if you take into effect that once hunting is done, you still have to K...

since when does a ranger care how far away something is? Just because we pathfind all day long, dosen't mean we want to walk to Ranger Lords every time we want to look at the Plaque. Ranger Basic works just fine. Also, although newbie rangers wouldn't be very high on plaque (if at all) they dont ha...

Side one: Agree. I always like looking at things like exp plaque and summary stats, finding out how i am doing compared to others. I use it to help me set goals and such. Seeing how i am doing among rangers, would be great. Side two: To quote others, this would be a dicksize code, as in, would mainl...

Hunting Questions

Many times on hunters, ranger, and party channels I have heard someone say "We need a help file that explains hunting in greater detail," to which others would sometimes reply "No, we dont." So the question is this: Should i start a hunting faq thread, much like the fishing faq c...
