Re: Treatment of Evil
Now you're the one using a hyperbole to affix the strawman. I was not referring to the entire playerbase as a whole. We're discussing real matters here, I don't see the reason behind the notion of dismissing them so easily as you would. Furthermore, did my "bold" statements really hit the nerve so b...

Re: Treatment of Evil
I'd not only claim that it's a very real thing, but would even go as far as stating that's merely the tip of an iceberg. Without getting more specific, characters not RPing fear and smply respawning (or killbashing with little to no RP), characters behaving inconsistently in similar situations (depe...

Re: Treatment of Evil
Irongron hit the nail on the head. A specific kind of mentallity seems to have asserted itself among players that "if you're not a part of my discord clique, I reserve the right to disregard anything that you do" This usually translates into a rather uninteractive behaviour, ranging from poorly exec...

Re: Is Anundor Actually a Drow City?
I had really hoped that after the cataclysm the DEVs intentions for Udos (which had been designed to represent the living image of Menzoberranzan at the time) were this , as it would have both forged a powerful narrative building upon the Cataclysm event, as well as it would have abolished and steer...

Re: Adopt A Harper: Smite the Infidel!
There are only a few things more satisfying than seeing an edgy paladin player critically failing in determining who is the villain and then sending salty tells to his buddies from the fugue plane :P I imagine one of those things is almost instantly deleting anyone with an evil alignment.

Re: Old Udos Droxun
I do really miss the Vault. That place felt very underdarky, I disagree. The Vault was kind of boring. It had nothing going on for it other than Illithids and Beholders (Who were too close to eachother anyway) and drow. Just from a aesthetical viewpoint the Vault was kind of bland, poorly dressed u...

Re: Classes, resources, and balance
I have played an AA before and from my experience things start to seem much less grim once you let go of the obsessive compulsion to use the best available arrows 24/7. There is solid ammunition to be found among loot drops readily throughout the module - you do not need to use a 4x enchanted damask...

Re: Old Udos Droxun
TBH, my greatest beef with Udos was the way how priestesses of Lolth had been automatically given power over other drow characters as early as upon the character creation. Unfamiliarity with the OOC drow trivia would not have been such an issue for many players if cheesballers had not been able to s...

Re: Old Udos Droxun
Anyway, this thread seems to be derailing at this point. Udos existed for almost 6 years (?). Over the course of this time hundreds of players made and played their characters there. Because of its polarizing nature, some of them had positive and others negative experiences. People in general are mo...

Re: Old Udos Droxun
My first day on the server my character got bashed and robbed by a pair of ruffians in Cordorian Sewers. Should I claim that Cordor is "that bad" as its RP revolves around giving your character's hard earned gold to strangers just because they happen to be holding a crossbow?

Re: Old Udos Droxun
It really was not that bad, it's just the handful of players who had an awkward experience because of a few drow words have been particularly vocal about it (even after six years!). The words "Balor", "Erinyes" or "Yugoloth" are not exactly english either. What is the issue with adding "Ulath'tallar...

Re: Old Udos Droxun
I'm fairly certain that the drow wordplay was not so bad as many of you make it out to be. IMO the greatest challenge for a new player was making sense out of the elaborate system of ranks and social statuses that stretched throughout the city (there was like 14 different ranks a character could hav...

Re: Old Udos Droxun
As it is usually the case with all great things, the opinions on Udos tend to vary, but they are assuredly quite polarizing - you either loved it or hated it, there was no middle ground. What it actually was? Udos was a city filled with a bunch of driven power hungry nihilistic sociopaths. As such i...

Re: Stealth Cleric Build
The Oblodra build is 17 cleric/9 ranger/4 rogue. DEX-based 18cleric/5ranger/7rogue actually. She was viable mostly because of harm (as high initiative would allow you to harm and finish off most STR based builds before they even got a swing at you). Since harm got changed this route is hardly viabl...

Re: Rangers, Paladins, Gish - those caught in between
Make smite evil proc automatically once per round of combat on a random attack and get rid of the 3 times per rest limitation. The 3 uses per day are somewhat underwhelming especially when taking into account the amount of feat investment and stat spread that is required in order to make greater smi...

Re: The future of Cordor
IMO nothing's really wrong with Cordor ATM. Maybe the emphasis on the guard RP (which is IMO kind of flavourless and boring TBH) is a little too strong, but that's on a decline as well. I think Neconecro is doing a good job in providing opportunities for a large variety of various playstyles to take...
