Update 2

These are my changes. Kaito has some more that are probably much more exciting!

• Tear (Sere)
• Illian (Sere)
• Lugard (bielebog)
• *I've done my best to make sure that all of the shops in the old areas were merged so that people aren't running around with gear that can no longer be obtained.
  
• THE TEAR AND SEA OF STORMS EPIC AREAS HAVE BEEN MOVED SLIGHTLY. Tear is still in about the same area, the sea of storms is now south rather then north in the marshlands.
  
• Separted some of my areas (Mayene and Ebou Dar) to make it easier on DMs so they can look and see "the knitting circle" as opposed to "indoors".
  
• Omnidye is now in Jehannah, Maradon, Lugard and Illian
• Somewhere: Forward Outpost (by Deathprophet!)
• Illian
• Illian: Shops
• Illian: The Silver Dolphin Inn
• Illian: The Golden Circle Theater
• Illian: The Golden Circle Theater - Foyer
• Illian: The Maredo Causeway
• Illian: Swampland
• Illian: Warehouses
• Tear: River Road
• Tear: Inner City
• Far Madding: The River Road
• Andor: Four Kings - Children of the Light Garrison (by Deathprophet)
• Andor: Four Kings - Children of the Light Garrison: Prison (by Deathprophet)
• Youngling Faction Gear
• Tar Valon: White Tower - Training and Recruitment Halls
• Tar Valon: White Tower - Defender Quarters - Captain
• Tar Valon: White Tower - Defender Quarters - Officer Barracks
• Tar Valon: White Tower - Defender Quarters - Rank Barracks
• White Tower Library (Changed Accepted Class List)
• The Pattern (Fixed Statues because I fail ;_;, fixed FLs)
• Replaced the Hall of the Tower for my midget sized one

Kaito's Changes:

• Party XP now higher than comparable soloing.
  
• Added player chat commands for various functions. Included a manual for players so they can know how to use these functions.
• A chat function I'll give special mention to is the ability to rename items and change item descriptions (as requested) and the ability for players to change their own description with greater detail and precision than before.
• Just a temporary fix for now, but players can also remove visual effects on their weapons with a chat command. They will have to redo the command every time the server resets at the moment though so I'll look into other solutions that don't clutter up the server.

This is possible, it just requires an entirely new rewrite of the XP system. So expect this, just not in the short term. I will likely wait till we switch over to a new core mod before digging into changes like that.

Edit: Update 5. Many Thanks! - Flame

All voted on Gear changes are in courtesy of Sere. Big thank you for the hard work!

I'm working on a script that will auto-update gear without hassle, but DMs are free to update by hand until then if they please. However the script should be done by tomorrow night (hopefully). If they're not done by then then they'll never be done.

Bows and monk gloves have values that can be given by CEP only, those need to be done by hand regardless.

Update 5.5

Lore is no longer a part of gateway rolls as according to server vote.

I've always felt that spellcraft was an unfair check on the gateway roll, since it only takes intelligence modifier into account. So I've added charisma and wisdom into the equation to better represent channeling skill/power as is done for shielding rolls.

The thing to take note of from this is I could not add cha + wis as a bonus, the script didn't work right when I did. So instead I subtract it from the DC. It is effectively the same thing, but the DC will look different depending on your personal cha and wis modifiers. The DC is still 100, but if your wisdom modifier is +20, the DC will be 80 instead (DC 100 - 20 wisdom modifier).

Also, with Update 5.5, new faction gear can now be obtained from any DM.

• For Players: Just unequip all your gear and ask a DM to assist.
• For DMs: Kaito's Widgets are located in:
• Item - Custom - CEP 2.1 Custom Palette - Builder Specific - Special - Custom 1 - Need both Resist Update Widget and Gear Update Widget
• 1. Use the Gear Update Widget on the player (best to make sure all items un-equiped)
• 2. Use the Resist Update Widget individually on each Epic Item with a damage resistance to convert it
  
• 3. Swap out old Faction Gear for the New Faction Gear from DM Room

Added:

• Andor Queen's Country Park
• Somewhere: Hidden Age of Legends Ruin
  
• Somewhere: Pit Fighting Ring

Update 5.6

Added:

• Kore Springs (Sere) - Connected to Braem Woods West

[Deleted]

Update 6

Forum Update

• Forum FAQ & Rules updated on the forums (the Dear all section)
  

Sere's Changes:

• New Faction Stores now available in all Recruitment/Faction Leader areas (You'll still want to have regular & epic gear updated first if you haven't done so yet, as it overwrites faction gear too)
• New Youngling Recruitment and Training Hall (Still a temporary measure)

• Forum FAQ & Rules added to the beginning area
