Do not allow gnoll fangs to drop if killed by a level 18 and above

[loramin]

And let me just say, it's people like you who negatively affect the community here. You've got multiple people in this thread expressing interest in doing research for the betterment of the community and your only response is belittle them for not knowing what you know. Might make you feel like a big man, but it doesn't get this server any closer to classic.

No, I am belittling you for refusing to search for even the most basic information yourself, the typical "letmegooglethatforyou" request, when the subject here is looking up information for yourself.

Ironically, if I use the forum search properly, that thread is the #1 result. How did you find it?

Say it is broken and giving too much exp.. why try to get it nerfed? lvl 1-20 sucks. You are a silly goose.

I dont want the exp nerfed. I have never said that.

I want level 18+ people who turn them in to get shit for exp so that they go the fuck away from the zone.

Actually what I suggested was that the fang not drop for level 18+ people. But that is probably a more complicated change.

Shaving exp at the turn in for folks who the zone is green for solves the problem, and fangs can be turned in for faction still, so faction hits are retained.

Right, because you knew exactly what you were looking for, and you knew to put it in quotes. My point was, for someone who didn't know that, finding the post was non-trivial. Rather than make everyone waste their time independently looking for this thread of your's, all it would have taken is six words from you.

It's really very simple. You could have responded to my post with:

It's stickied in the bug forum.

That would have actually taken less time/effort on your part, and it would have gotten me and anyone else interested to the resource so they could start researching and ultimately contributing to P99 ...

... or you could do what you did, and mock me for asking a person who clearly had the information I sought rather than wasting more time searching for it.

Going your route doesn't help the server or the community at all, but it gives you a nice feeling of superiority. Kudos.

[Quineloe]

You're assuming I knew where that was to begin with. I didn't.

Going your route doesn't help the server or the community at all,

Would the other route?
Will keep an eye out for your bug posts in the bug forum. Now that you know.

That sounds like a challenge (of the sort that does help the community) [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Actually I've been meaning to file a bug about forest giants standing on their houses anyway. I'll leave the Gnoll Fang thing to Pinolian (or others) though; my Blackburrow days are far behind me.

Fang.DropChance = 15

Fang.DropChance = 0

I dont know if anyone else caught this and posted about it. I didnt take the time to read most of the thread. I just wanted to point out that this code would make it so that anyone under lvl18 wouldnt get any fang drops.

if mob is blue and character level is greater than 18 then you have a 15% chance to get fang else if you are not greater than 18 you have 0% chance to get fang drop... lol


Edit: Guess it was. still funny though!

I find it highly amusing when people come up with their amateur code to solve their perceived problems. Do you think they just need to copypasta this and it would work? Or are you trying to insult them by suggesting they would need this hint?


and you even fucked up the code.

[baalzy]

lol. Really should just be

if(mob is green)
Fang.DropChance = 0.

Why should those level 12s be allowed to kill the lvl 4-6 gnolls at the entrance?

That's a global issue and has been reported on Sunday (=

because its my choice on how i wanna level .. I've never done the fangs beyond the ones i picked up wile grouping there but i reserve the right to go and collect some more if i so please .. the fact that people even find it a good idea to implement something to limit other people because it makes them uncomfortable is beyond stupid and is a prob here and irl .. bitching of the few affect the all
