FRAT

And I, for one, welcome our new wizard overlords and willing to inform them that as a DM, I can be useful in routing others to toil as slaves into their laboratories.

I love you, Mort.

HAIL WIZARDS

This thread is so ranty.

Anyway, while I understand where RWG is coming from, it's important to keep in mind that we have to try to strike a balance in how things are presented in order to make the server enjoyable for as many people as possible.

So, lots of plots means lots of ways that lots of people can be involved. If you're in a major faction, yeah, you're going to be involved in a lot more plots than the average person. Major faction membership is not intended for casual playing, so this is sort of what you're signing up for when you apply.

As for NPC interaction, I haven't been around in awhile so I can't really comment on the current state of that. We could probably stand to be more interactive, though.

Also, as a DM team, we've always been against using NPCs to do a faction PCs dirty work for them. I'm not sure what exactly you're asking for more of in terms of NPC support, though. It's not really clear, and is coming off somewhat selfish and petulant - which makes it seem more like a personal issue you have with your specific PC, which is probably why it was mentioned that you probably could have brought it up privately, in the first place, to see if it was something that could be easily resolved without all this meandering board-vomit.

Cheers!

There can be! You will recall a certain Bedine negative con modifer vs wail of the banshee. Also skills can totally go south.

OK, I am going to try and not turn this into a rant.  I need some advice on the level 8+ / how to still enjoy playing your character issue that I keep running into.  It basically stems from something similar to what happened last night.  Got my arse handed to me in a quest, survived (sort of) but burned a lion's share of my consumables, mostly healing.  

Now, I realize that once in a while we are handed a quest that is hard as hell and really causes us to be intelligent with our gear and think creatively, etc.  I'm cool with that.

Problem is this.  I now have to spam the heck out of about 2 quests that I can think of so that I can earn money or find healing in order to get back to the place that I can survive if this happens again...  I have to do this because my character isn't anywhere close to a merchant build and there aren't any other ways to earn coin that I can think of, either spam quests, or be a merchant (or join a DM faction).

So, my request for advice is this.  How do folks keep themselves afloat?  I am in a PC faction that doesn't rob and pillage, so that's out.  I am not  a crafter, that's out.  

There are quite a few higher level characters around, they don't seem to be broke.  (Oh, and I refuse to de-level myself just so I can get back down the the really spammable paying quest range...)

Any advice is appreciated.

Find a server more suited to your desires, since you don't seem to be getting it.

Just play the stat losses that come with it.

Likewise.

You people are weird.

If your screen glitches up, you need to alt-tab around to your NWN a second time to fix it.

Like from NWN glitchy screen around X many times directly back to NWN screen.

They do not contradict each other Garem. Note the word 'inherent'. Now, look it up.

Yeah you see how you scum.

I do not believe that there is any significant inherent difference in the challenge level between playing good and playing evil.

Usually it boils down to less experienced, more casual players generally preferring to play good aligned PCs, and thus it can be more difficult to corral a large number of them.

Also could whichever DM made this quest let me know who they are, on IRC? Thanks!

The best thing to do when remaking is to open an EFUSL window on your existing PC once you are nuked by the DM, so you can see what all your skill points etc are, then use it to double-check when making the new PC.
