    New POI with general vendors.

    If you can turn animal materials into gold without having to transport everything to town, you can make gold much faster. All the time that you usually have to spend carrying stuff to town can be used to farm more mats. Also its much safer because you don't have to risk getting ganked on the...

    Heavy Armor Weight

    Yes, you can tailor your steel armour to stay under your max weight by either using a lighter padding, or a lower percentage. Usually when you ask an armor crafter to craft you a set, you tell him your max weight and he will make sure to stay under it. The % is pretty much only for durability...

    Heavy Armor Weight

    To wear full steel armour you have to get both, Armour Training and Heavy armour training to 100. You should have no problem wearing a full set of steel armour with those 2 primaries especially on a Thursar. Tungsteel and cronite are lighter than steel but they are very expensive. Steel is...

    Heavy Armor Weight

    Messing used to be good for heavy maces used by mounted fighters back when you had unlimited stamina on horseback. They hit like a truck. However not sure how they work now with the new mounted mechanics. I guess you could use them as demolishing hammers on houses. Mid tier armour is steel...

    New POI with general vendors.

    The point that i am making is that it was fair because everyone could buy their own. When they are a permanent npc on the map, only those in that particular area benefit. The rest of the map is shit out of luck.

    New POI with general vendors.

    Not exactly. In MO1 you had to at least buy the vendor and put it in your village. You had to spend money to have that luxury. Also people could siege it and destroy it. This is completely different. This is SV cherry picking who and where now gets the easiest/safest spots to farm. Those that...

    New POI with general vendors.

    I was enjoying going around checking out the new POI when i came upon one that had a general vendor. What the hell is this? Is this a mistake, or do we have vendors scattered all over the map now? Because if we do, this changes farming and living in the wild completely, and gives specific...

    I have some questions about the game

    Its true that the new flagging system is more forgiving, and kind, to murderers.as well as convoluted and confusing for new players. The old system, in MO1, was much more simple and brutal. You would still get murder counts, but after 5 of them your flag turned red and guards would attack you...

    User Interface in MO2 is still one of the best, but...

    If you look down and to the left you can kind of see the pommel of your weapon when you have a sword equipped. If its a bow you can look up and to the right and see it behind your shoulder. Other than that yea there is no instant way to tell what you have equipped. Most people just open their...

    I have some questions about the game

    Sadly no. The max cap of attributes cannot be exceeded (except for the bonuses you get from weight). So a Thursar will never have as much Int as Heugar. A Heugar will never have as much dex as Vheela, etc. each race is best suited for a specific role. If you want the best mage you’ll have to...

    I have some questions about the game

    Yes it is stil possible but its less likely than before. If you take box price(say 25$) and the eventual sub(15$) having 8 characters now would cost you roughly 200$ In box price + 120$ a month is subscriptions. Thats very expensive for your average gamer. It used to cost 50$ in box, and 30$...

    Ping normalization? Getting hit through blocks/parrys constantly

    The only thing you can do is move closer to the server. Otherwise you are stuck with being handicapped when it comes to parrying. Anything over 100 ping starts to have issues with blocking and especially parrying. You can learn to “deal with it”, but that pretty much means being forced to be...

    I have some questions about the game

    This isnt the actual reason by the way. Originally the first game let you have up to 4 characters per account. However that meant that most people had 2 or 3 accounts with 8 to 12, or more characters. Even more when the free 2 play accounts came on. This generated a lot of issues such as...

    I have some questions about the game

    To expand on this point a bit. The game doesnt automatically do it because Primary skill point bonuses are effected every time you change your attributes (strength, dex, con,etc) al well as your weight. If it did it automatically it could remove a bunch of primary skills whenever you lose...

    I saw the fight: dex footman vs plate warr (Oghmir).

    Im not sure exactly what your point is, but to bandage you have to put away your weapon and go through the bandaging animation. This takes a couple of seconds. You cant block while bandaging so you are vulnerable to getting hit. If you are in melee range your enemy will surely hit you as soon as...

    I saw the fight: dex footman vs plate warr (Oghmir).

    It doesnt work like that. A fast race can heal on the run because they can avoid being hit as they are running away. All they have to do is put their weapon away, sprint and nobody can hit them (excluding ranged weapons). This allows for avoiding damage AND free bandaging on the run. A slow...

    I saw the fight: dex footman vs plate warr (Oghmir).

    MO1 had almost no self healing. You just had bandages and eventually potions (aside from hybrids having a small magic heal). Since you could bandage while running, it made the fastest runners (vheelas) the most survivable race. Thry always had the option to disengage and heal on the run. It...

    the ban policy does not protect the user base and causes unnecessary fear and intimidation by moderation staff

    Take your own advice buddy. This isnt a republic or a public space. You are in someone else's house, and they make the rules. you can follow the rules or get the f out. Arrogant and entitled kids theses days….

    Why do warcrys cancel an charged attack?

    It overwhelms SV to code anything to work as intended.

    Beautiful game but...

    Totally agree. Bandits were almost perfect before they added the insane grouping mechanic where they always bring half the camp with them. They were perfect medium level content for solo players. Something a solo player could progress to after the graveyard. Challenging and fun, but not as hard...
