Time spent playing the game can be quite enjoyable, but there are many aspects of the game that are very time-consuming while having very low entertainment value.

Re: Q: How to get inside Rivendell?

I have heard claims that being a Grey Havens citizen makes it easier to get into Rivendell.

The Forum Search Function

The search function seems far too keen on claiming a search keyword is too common, how about making it a tad less restrictive? Even when limiting the search to topics only, knowing there is at most two or three threads matching a desired keyword, I frequently get the "The following words in your sea...

Re: Fans

They add move delay and noise too, coyote, if your group consists of more than one other player or mobile - particularly if the fan is following someone other than the leader.

Not enough to prevent 7 fans from coming to me or my groupmates within a period of 15 minutes, apparently.

Re: Prioritizing bugs

The bug that makes tracks decay on any weather change, even if it is just an increase or decrease in clouds, should obviously have high priority too.

Re: Warriors and spells

Herblore mixing has a tendency to fail every now and then, particularly with low mentals.
They are not mutually exclusive, by the way.

Fans

I find fans extremely annoying.
They are particularly annoying when 7 arrive within a period of 15 minutes.
In fact, they are even more annoying than stray dogs.

Re: Warriors and spells

I last saw envenom used in pk by a non-scout less than 24 hours ago. Rattlesnakes and tarantulas are low-level mobs, not level 50+.

Re: Warriors and spells

1 prac in detect magic is enough, and has helped me find *enemies* on a few occassions. Rem poison is a must have when trying to flee from a group of *enemies* using arachnia far away from any safe spot (although few places are far away from safe spots these days). The loss of 2-3 max hps is well wo...

Re: Warriors and spells

I will go further and say I want more pracs in dodge, pick (many more!), bandage, possibly climb and swim (depending on stats), ride (max!), bless, and also slashing, remove poison, cure blind and detect magic. I would lower bash, cleaving, parry and wilderness by several pracs each. Then we have th...

Re: Too many skills, Not enough Pracs

If I were buffing Muranog, for instance, I would rather have you sleep the blacktrolls than fireball them. The same goes for patrol leaders, dire wolves, etc in Moria and many mobs elsewhere.

Re: Warriors and spells

I've never seen a need for more than 2 pracs in cure light, even at low level. Maxing any warrior skill, endurance included, is a horrible idea; start practicing endurance around level 10 and stop around 20-25. I would suggest spending 5-6 pracs decayed from cure light on remove poison (you will nee...
