When the mind begins to wander

[blain]

How come a suit of mythril costs well under a mithril piece yet must contain enough metal to mint at least 1000 mithril coins?

 

[mirieth]

Shhh! :help:

 

[Nightchill]

i'd worry more about finished items weighing more than their original constituents.

Or the desert plains coloured forest lions in Albion ?

That always used to freak me out when I was a weaponcrafter on hib/excal... until one day I realised that the process of crafting was sucking the life out of me and the extra weight was my own precious bodily fluids!!

 

[swords]

erm you wouldn't happen to know about a doomsday device would you

Or the alchemical process whereby you turn leather and thread into metal when armourcrafting.

Easy. When you salvage the armour, you rip the cloth lining and the straps off the metal plate, bin em, melt down the metal you have left, et voilá, you're left with metal bars.

Encumberence isn't just a measure of weight. It's also a measure of how 'bulky' the item is.

OK so explain to me how you get more metal out of a piece of armour than you put into it?

 

[Roalith]

Metal from the straps

 

[blain]

Loose change in the pockets

 

[mirieth]

For Roalith, it's the extra coins he's nicked from un-wary passers by. His favourite targets are aging female Theurgists and young lady Infiltrators. He's scum, you know.

<spits on Roalith>

How come the mobs carry bags of coins (where do snakes keep them!) and what do they spend it on?

 

[frols]

Where do the mobs get the items that they drop from?

and who is the richest mob in the game?

 

[Cush]

Why do animals run around with coins? what do they use em for and where do they keep them?


Dooh!! as i post i see its already been said

 

[minstrel_kyra]

I always wondered about that... not like Basilisks have pockets or anything. LOL

OHH and another thing, I think we need to pay our keep guards better. I know for a fact that the guards at Hlid were picketing that HH weren't paying them enough and threw themselves at us last time we visited. <giggle>

(I mean seriously, only a few silver from 1 guard... no wonder they are cranky!)

 

[Shike]

I wanna see my Dorf when he carries 300 throwing axes around and 1 double cleaver and a handaxe plus one 2hander on the back!!

And why oh why does Trolls GIANT axes same damage as when a kobie equips it and it is puny?

 

[Cush]

Would be more fun if the weapons had a set size so when a small char equiped it it would be HUGE.

 

[Hufner]

You mean like watching a luri champ running about with a 2h club?

 

[Sneo]

how do a snake parry my attack with my 2handed sword?? also a good question
