"All I want to know.. is whose coming with me... Jan?" .. Who thinks I'd do a stellar job as a builder/clan watcher/immortal in general.. I need the will of the people behind me before I take the application seriously!

What say ye' people of rand land..

*notions to the trap door you're all conveniently standing under as you make your decision, and winks slyly whilst holding a rope leading to somewhere you can't tell..*

Galnor would probably let you build right off if you just mail him. But you have to do your time and build zones/descriptions first - all the "fun" stuff is for later

wtf we need more zones???

Agreed.

Joking but yah a new zone up there would be nice too. a place for trollies to do trolly things.

does anybody else think that it's off that DS players regularly go as deep into LS zones as caemlyn to PK but when PK happens in DS zones it's always at keep? it'd be nice to have a little more variety there.

and maybe some new smobs in those DS zones so LS players will have a reason to go up there and get wtftrapped.

One or two more ds zones wouldnt hurt our playerbase as they only really have the two zones as is. I think one zone added onto the northern area of keep going west would be good, and then a zone north of that like thakandar would be good. Add back in the woodengate e all n of the rogue prac in keep that links into the north zone then the zone w of that could include a smob or two. Id also say id like if the new areas would have zero lightside support mobs. we have support right outside keep in two spots and right outside hold in a smob. Would be nice if the new area was just "too deep for our support to go" so that they know they have the upper hand in atleast that area.

no thanks

DS zones are the only original zones since pkmud, leave them alone. Go ruinitate some obscure part of LS randland.

As to Phans question dealing with pk, it's a move thing bro, go play LS and you might see why humans only hit keep, not to mention how chokey and bottle necked the zones are.

Solares idea is a good one, you don't have to do anything to the original zones evilina, just add the new ones.... it would be good to have some new zones to play in and have a couple new smobs to hit... but if there are new smobs getting put in, can you make it so you have to kind of think to do it?? atm maerwynn is the only smob i know of where you have to do stuff to get in.... 1st kill the mob and get the key to get in, then find the lever to pull then you have to listen to a riddle and answer it correctly to get into the smob... we should get more like these, may like you need to go get a key from another smob before you can get into a smob......

OOOOO add a smob chain. with a nice chest at the end that can load the old smithables.

Old zones wouldnt need to be touced. You would just get more territory. Which would help. Lately if ls owns ds in pk your options are run murash or bolt hold n eventually sit haran. Whereas ours are wayyyy more open on where we can run and what we can fall back to. Making pk more open but not making too durastic of changes would kill some of the stagnant pk we have atm and give ds different fallback options which honestly while im on ds ive wanted. Most of the options ds has atm are near suicidal if ls has the right group.

yea what solare said is exactly the way i was thinking about it. many's the time i've been the only person left alive on DS being hunted by 3-4 LS players and it's like well... i could hide in gk... or i could run hold. then i guess i could run back to gk...

as far as it being a mvs thing for humans evil, when i'm TV and my PK partner dies, or i get jumped by a channie or an abser and i'm solo, my mvs difference is not going to save me. nor can i get to a remount and disappear. only hiding effectively and dodging LS players long enough to regenerate mvs, which is assuming that my opponent is not an idiot and is able to keep re-horsing and searching door-to-door for me.
