Trade and Market Hall / Attention Scribes and Woodworkers
« on: April 30, 2008, 12:06:18 am »
Now available by the single sheet or 10 sheet tablet: Mahogony parchment and sandpaper.  
      Parchment is great for scribes or anyone wishing to pen a note or letter with an element of class.  Also great for wedding invitations.  
      Sandpaper for an oh so nice finish on that new mahogony bow.  
Send message to Armolas Folian or place orders here.  Limited availability due to unrest in the region but as soon as things are settled larger orders will be accepted.  
I reserve the right to refuse sale to followers of Corath, Pyrtechon, blatantly evil types, or anyone associated with the green dragon cult.

Ask A Gamemaster / Resistances question
« on: April 24, 2008, 12:43:58 am »
If a character has an item with for example a 10/- fire resistance on it and casts protection from elements which is another 30/- elemental resistance up to 40 pts from a single elemental type, in which order is the damage resistance applied?  Hypothetical situation:  a mage tosses a fireball for 40 pts of damage.  If the item resistance comes first, 10pts are deducted from the damage so only 30pts is applied toward the 40pt total.  If the spell comes first, all 40 pts are taken by the spell with the spillover beyond the 30/- going to the item for another 10/-.  In the first case, the spell would still have 10pts remaining, in the second, the spell would collapse after the first hit.  Just curious as to whether a higher item resistance will help extend the capabilities of the spell by knocking some of the damage off what the spell needs to absorb.

NWN Ideas, Suggestions, Requests / Dire Wolf -4 search?
« on: April 05, 2008, 10:52:39 am »
On a quest the other night I summoned my Dire wolf animal companion to help track some missing children.  I was somewhat dismayed to find out that my wolf was -4 to search checks.  I am not sure why a wolf with keen senses would be -4 to search.  K9 type species have legendary tracking skills as they are often used to sniff out bombs and drugs, used by police to track missing persons and such.  I wouldn't think a wolf or dire wolf in game would be much different.  Since this is primarily an RP thing since animal companions don't often do searches on their own under normal circumstances, is it possible to alter the characteristics to make a search check a bit more realistic to what a wolfs capabilities would be?  Not sure if this is something that can be changed or if it is hardcoded but I would like to be able to use my wolf for RP tracking in future quests but when the checks come out that I can pick up a scent better than my animal companion, not sure if I really want to do that.

Trade and Market Hall / Cleaning house
« on: March 16, 2008, 05:21:41 pm »
I have a few items I have accumulated over the years that I am sure someone will find useful.  So, I am putting these items up for auction or I am willing to swap some things for an exceptional belt of cunning.  Depending on final auction prices, I will be in the market for such a belt if you are not interested in a swap.  Here is what I have to offer:

2 necklaces of shield: //casts Shield (1x/day)
1 Archers Edge belt: //+1 deflection ac , casts Entropic Shield (1x/day)
1 Boots of the Militia:  //+1con, +1fort, +1will, +2concentration, +2discipline
                                  Usable: chaotic, good, lawful, neutral
1 Mahogony Hunter bow handcrafted by myself.  See me for demonstration and viewing.

Auction concludes 4 days hense (//rl days) unless someone makes an offer I can't refuse.

NWN Ideas, Suggestions, Requests / Ranger and Druid rings
« on: March 05, 2008, 12:14:36 pm »
Arcane spell casters have rings of sourcery and wizardry, clerics have rings of divinity, would it be possible to have rings of the woodlands for rangers and druids?  Rings would be made of wood equivilant for each level oak for lvl 1, mahog for 2, yew for 3 granting maybe 1 or 2 spells for each appropriate level.  Other components would be the same as their divinity counterpart.

Fixed Bugs / Protection clerical domain spell issue - FIXED
« on: March 04, 2008, 01:20:11 am »
Description: NWN and Layo Lore documentation state Protection domain receives "Globe of Invulnerability" at spell lvl 4 giving protection from spells level 4 or lower.  In game however it translates to 'Minor Globe of Invulnerability' giving protection from level 3 or lower.

Location: N/A

Reproducable: Yes, I have spoken with other clerics with protection domain and they have said the spell is termed minor globe with lvl 3 or lower protection.

The Silver Buckle / The bugbear threat
« on: March 08, 2007, 09:39:57 am »
Bugbears rumored to be working out of a stronghold on Bear Island have been conducting raids on Mariners Hold and on trade caravans coming and going from the city.  Authorities have raised the call for help to secure the surrounding countryside and trade routes.  Tadashi, bushido cleric of Vorax, has answered this call and is forming a party to deal with this threat.  Those wishing to join him in coming to the aid of Mariners Hold meet outside Freelancers 1 day hense.  Speak with guard Ashley for details.


//Bugbear quest 'Assault on Bear Island' see player calender for specific info on times.

General Discussion / Silver enhancements
« on: March 07, 2007, 09:54:01 pm »
I was down in the Vehl crypts earlier today fighting with an iron Katana with a third circle silver enhance and noticed in the script that the damage from the silver enhance wasn't showing up.  I am not sure if this is a bug or not but I was hitting regularly for 3 and 4 points of damage and nowhere in the script did it list the damage from the silver.  Does this show up as divine damage or elemental?  I was showing extra damage when I cast darkfire on the katana but without it the damage was way less then I would expect from a strongly silvered weapon.  If this is a bug I can repost in the bug forum but I am curious if anyone else has noticed this.

NWN Ideas, Suggestions, Requests / Of Inns, taverns and alignments
« on: March 02, 2007, 06:37:27 pm »
With the new starting starting locations divided along aligment and racial lines, and Hempstead being the start for 'good' aligned characters, perhaps there should be some consideration to moving the temple of shadon and scamps mug to Vehl and putting a good aligned temple or even just a neutral Inn in it's place.  There needs to be a point of congregation like the Wild surge for disseminating information and posting things where i/g characters would be able to read them.  Since Hlint is not longer the center of the adventurers universe, a Forum board and an Inn would be greatly appreciated that is more neutral in nature as many Lawful type characters would be out of character to enter Scamps being a Shadonite temple.  Not high priority but in the spirit of R/P of alingment and information travel such a thing would be of great convenience.

Fixed Bugs / Various NPC quests - TO BE ACTIONED
« on: March 02, 2007, 05:17:11 pm »
Several of the quests carried over from v2 still refer to old place names and people that have been replaced in v3.  Postal package quest one of them.

General Discussion / The long list of questions to be asked bout v3
« on: February 28, 2007, 08:50:21 am »
Ok.. sure to be a long list of what folks want or need to know, but here is the first question.

What is the PvP widget and how does it work and when can or should it be used?

Layonara Server / v3 rp prep and questions
« on: February 23, 2007, 12:38:52 am »
With the maps so radically changed (ie.. places that were are no more and others renamed), any thoughts on how to rp changes to character bios or developement threads that use places that are no longer existant?  What if a character comes from a place that is no more or a location X is prominant in a developement thread but is no more or renamed?  Any ideas on how to work the change into current rp?  Also, is the current system going to be considered historical (cue grandpa sitting by the fire telling grandkids what it was like to spend time on the Hlint benches) and the world has evolved from that or will 'Port Hampstead' always have been 'Port Hampstead'?

One last question concerning quests.  With old quests passing away and new ones put in place, will quests that a character has but not completed be stripped out if they no longer exist?  I have a few quests that I have gotten but not completed and was wondering if they will be removed or will remain forever incomplete.

Thanks and very much looking forward to the new and improved world.

Trade and Market Hall / Seeking cranberry juice in bulk
« on: February 16, 2007, 07:24:00 pm »
I am looking for fairly large amounts of cranberries or better yet, cranberry juice.  I will pay 1000 true for a full box of cranberries or 5000 true for a full box of cranberry juice.  I am looking for at least one or two boxes of juice or up to 5 boxes of berries.  True on delivery.  Easy wealth with low risk for anyone interested.  Send bird or find me in person if able to assist.  I will also take lesser quantities but prefer to buy in bulk.

General Discussion / Layo records for most poofed cnr
« on: February 16, 2007, 12:44:26 am »
By my count, I think I am now up to 192 nuggets of plat that have poofed in consecutive failed crafting attempts for bow parts II.  I was wondering if I was approaching a record or are there horror stories of greater volumes lost?

Roleplaying / RP of food preferences
« on: February 05, 2007, 08:28:13 pm »
I am curious as to how others handle their food preferences in RP.  I have a samurai cleric that from the time he started has eaten only a diet of rice and fish.  My ranger eats mostly food he has hunted, and the occasional pie or other gifted food, but rarely eats purchased rations unless starving.  Do you have any characters with special diets or other RP'd food preferences?

General Discussion / Temp Placeables outside?
« on: January 22, 2007, 11:38:10 pm »
I was wondering before I spent any true on it or caused server trouble, is it possible to set placeables temporarily outside?  What I have in mind is a r/p picnic in a remote woods area.  I would like to put down a rug to look like a large table cloth and a couple place settings to help r/p a picnic.  It would be in a remote, seldom visited area and only for 1/2 hr or so at the longest.  All placeables would then be pulled up and put back to deed inventory.  Would this cause too many problems or would the items disappear if someone transitioned into the area?  Not a big deal if it can't be done, but it would make the r/p much better with the visuals to go along with it.  I would try to schedule it during a non peak server time so as to minimize impact on lag and would only be 3 to 4 items at most.

General Discussion / question on dual wield and parry
« on: January 16, 2007, 01:54:10 am »
According to the description of parry skill it says that a character has a chance to parry one attack per round for each attack that the character has.  Is this only per attack with the primary weapon or does dual wielding give an extra parry due to the extra offhand attack that comes with improved two weapon fighting?

General Discussion / Quick question on enhancements
« on: December 13, 2006, 09:02:45 pm »
Are silver and titanium enhancements non compatable with each other like 2 elemental enhancements?  I mean you can have an elemental and silver but not electrical and frost.  Can two alchemical enhancements be put on a weapon or would the second cancel out the first?

General Discussion / Viewing portrait names with pics
« on: December 01, 2006, 09:24:32 pm »
Is there an easy way (program or method) to view thumnails of the portrait pack with the file names together?  Somehow the portrait for my Sorcerer Justin "Hanibal" Case changed mysteriously a couple weeks ago to the portrait that is next to it in the selection menu.  I need the name of the original portrait to have it changed back but it would take hours and hours to go through all the portraits listed one by one to find the original portrait.  
Thanks
