Jump is indeed availible to Rangers, I had it on lazaric. However, the bonus will not help you if you do not have at least 1(2) pts crossclassed into tumble to give yourself the skill.
 
PS: I love the climbing system, but then again I have a high dex bard with max'd tumble and max'd acrobatics EFUSS skill so

New trailer video. Is more or less naff. RPS sums it up adequatly.
 
QuoteIt might just be me, but the tone of this first Neverwinter MMO trailer seems like it’s about to break into being a send-up at any moment. I was sat waiting for the punchline that never comes. Anyway, it’s basically illustrating that the game’s dungeons will be heavy on the story elements, which seems to make sense, given the Dungeons & Dragonsness of it all. Also appropriate: a dragon. The game – which was recently reworked as a free-to-play MMO – will appear next year.

Best way to show him what EFU is all about.

[19:56]
Subdue him then wave your dick in his face. Then slowly whisper in his ear. "Welcome to EFU."

My issue has been resolved, though she definatly seems to be broken because it happened a second time.

Races in order of most frequently encounter to least: Human, Dwarf, Halfling, Halforc, Elf, Half Elf, Gnome
 
Classes in order of most frequently encountered to least (assuming pure): Fighter, Cleric, Ranger, Wizard, Sorcerer, Bard, Rogue
 
Most Common Religeons (no particular order): Helm, Torm, Illmater, Mystra, Oghma, Tempos, Cyric, Tymora, Beshaba, Shaundakaul, Kossuth, Silvanus(Tree Father)
 
Take with a pinch of salt though, pretty much every religeon has been represented at one point or another. Server tends towards -Neutrality-, good and evil are equally prevalent and accepted.
 
Starting out I strongly suggest some form of fighter that utilizes a shield, or some sort of caster that focuses on buffing others.
 
HEAL is used for medicine packs which are useless during combat, but can regenerate quite a bit of hp (20+ at 1hp per round) outside of combat with good heal ranks, heal + items are plentiful and common
 
PICKPOCKET is used for a few quests, special options, server has special systems for rogues and pickpocket in particular
 
TAUNT see's middling amounts of use making CONCENTRATION a valid investment even for non casters
 
LORE as ever, is important for identifying items, most lore boosting items are class specific so if you want to ID items or have a knowledgible character, invest
 
TUMBLE and it's AC boost is affected by armor check penalty, do not bother crossclassing or multi-classing into it unless your using medium/light armor.
 
Server is heavily CONSUMABLE slanted - spell x/day are -rare-, charges are common, potions are common, flat +1 enchantments practically non existant (making casters requisite for a balanced group). Do not be afraid to use consumables, better broke and alive than dead and rich, especially with the 1/3rd EXP penalty for a respawn. Raise dead reduces this to 1/6, costs 1500 to get an item that'll do it, a true res - which is unheard of rare - reduces the exp loss to 1/9th. Long story short, dying hurts, but DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED BY DEATH. Even if it feels like your coming out with less than what you started. You might lose a level but get nifty consumable items, or form In Character bonds and contacts that can be valuable for the quest train toot toot. Sadly, sometimes i've come out short on everything, but if you get knocked back down to low levels that just means you can roll train on lower level quests which tend to be financially/consumably rewarding.
 
Above all do not be afraid to ask questions in tells, about pretty much anything you could wonder about. Anything thats not IC knowledge is readily shared.
 
PS: Do not form IC cliques centered around a RWG character, he will die

The dragons in THIS setting sure, but good aligned dragons/bahamut play an important role in elvish history, and the Metallics are allies of Evermeet - so you can't really say good aligned dragons don't exist. There's just none on Ymph.
 
Though, to be fair, I cannot for the life of me think of a feasible or good character concept involving him.
