To enter Rivervale you have to go through a cave that is arguably giant.

Halas, felwithe, oggok, grobb, erudin, and paineel are all indoors too? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Wrong place to ask I guess, but why can shamans not shrink in the planes?

I believe outdoor zones require a clickable shrink to be allowable. Shamans couldn't spell-shrink in outdoor zones until 2003ish.

Ah, but look at what reiker said:



To enter Rivervale you have to go through a cave that is arguably giant. It appears that this is both a sufficient and necessary condition for a zone to be an "indoor" zone. I mean, I know it's not classic, but come on, clearly verant intended for rivervale to be an indoor only zone, so we should change it anyway.

You should have your bard license taken away.

Technically it's called a tunnel, not a cave. A cave only has one entrance, a tunnel has 2.

If the sky is above your head, then you are outdoors.

The planes could be considered an exception to this since they operate outside the laws of physics and magic of Norrath.

Anyone else find the humor in EQ players not understanding the difference between indoors and outdoors?

The sky is always above your head, unless you're in the plane of sky, and selo's accelerando works there (I know because I have extensive raiding experience in plane of sky. I'm also a virgin).

Outdoor spells shouldn't work in Neriak. Look around, you're in a giant cave.

They don't. You can't sow in there.
