Suddenly I think this may be a bug, after attempting to train for a half an hour on an acolyte and learning nothing I relogged and am learning again albeit still at a much slower pace than anything else.

Okay, so I made a mantis ticket about this very issue but it was disregarded when I couldn't come up with exact numbers within the dev's timeframe. SO, I have found that training in the arena or with other characters is quite effective, however fighting high level monsters in the wilderness at 90+ s...

This is my #1 enjoying it right now

Just throwing this here as a reminder: http://illarion.org/illarion/us_rules.php#behavior: It is not allowed to react to a rule violation of another player with another rule violation (e.g. OOC-messages). These breaches will be dealt with, regardless of the situation. It is unwanted for players to ...

^third, I assumed this was everyone's way of seeing it, a wrong assumption.

Greetings Sir,

I am interested in purchasing as many of the magical gems you are willing to part with at 7 gold coins per gem. I also have merinium as well though stock is limited as I try to use my materials for optimal coin flow.

First off if someone attacks me from the shadows or without emotes, then they don't get a gram of rp respect period, don't expect otherwise. On another note if someone doesn't respond or accept your emotes or rp then they likewise do not deserve your sympathy. Respond appropriately... those who resp...

I would like to commend the Knight for this endeavor and his excellent display of initiative during these harsh times, though he may not hear it from his superiors. His actions are noted. Hopefully other knights can look up to this behaviour, despite whether their superiors like it or not. Presumabl...

I feel like this will lower regular gem output, which I'll say for finesmithing and by extension glyph forging will just be that much more difficult to level than the other crafting skills. Seeing as to how regular gems are used for many crafting recipes as well, I feel that unless regular gem outpu...

His dreams were filled with gold, jewels, and relics, his glorious hoarde. He looked across a bleak and lifeless plain, the only light that shone was from his glowing artifacts he had collected. He was alone, left to survey his gleaming possessions with a covetous pride. The ominous wind carried the...

"That well adorned Lizardman..The big red one, who was he again?" Lothar asks Fronita in the Marketplace of Runewick. She shrugs and purses her lip in a 'I've no clue' gesture."Sardon, you halfwitted halfers!" Alysa giggles jokingly. "Oh yea? Well I've been missing his busin...

Yep, I'm gone til this game doesn't suck.

Love you guys who rp well and even those who don't but still try their damndest.

A better way of saying it imo is "how can we keep people interested in improving their character after they have their desired skill sets." I too think this is important. Illarion is really lacking in content, it's bad enough we can hardly customize what equipment we wear as there is a met...

ps: For those who are disheartened by the gap between older chars, you can hunt maps or gather for extra gems or you can seek out people who would give gems for work or apprenticeships, or maybe someone would give gems for loyalty which seems to be nonexistent in a world of knights and dragons :arr...

So? Some of the biggest maps I heard give up to 4 latent gems. From gathering for a few hours I can get 1 sometimes 2 latents a day. To catch up to people who have much more playtime would take some determination, but it's not impossible, who says you can't get some friends to help you work for gems...

I would propose adding more uses for the gems with a couple of those uses being a consumable. For powerful potions or one time use artifacts. We could have more hidden places on the map like the Bjolmur altar which require gems. There's ALOT of options. The key is to add more content instead of taki...

Okay seriously, who needs any kind of exp or apprentice bonus? On one char I have 3 maxed out skills while hardly even trying to be active. Skills are not an issue that is restricting rp. Apprenticeship is a role I think should be done here, but the 'master' and 'apprentice' need to mutually respect...

I'll jump on the band wagon and note that I found it kind of weird that Runewick and Cadomyr are realms of values/ideas while Galmair is a realm of a 'condition'. Especially the German translation "Wohlstand", directly translating to 'being wealthy' (which Galmair is right now, in relatio...

Yes, I understand this, however it leads to this because there's an issue. If something keeps coming up, maybe it's a sign that there is an actual problem. All I said was it's a german game, started by german speaking people, who obviously gravitate to people they understand. If you want this game n...

Since there is no issue, I guess we can sit back and watch as players come back and everyone has fun right?

At what point will someone admit that Illarion's community is responsible for it's lack of content, and players.

My question is why haven't any english speaking guilds that have popped up ever gotten up to the positions that German players hold? It could be they aren't motivated enough to get that far, if that's the case why? Or is it that they can't? If so why? Why isn't it fishy that these positions are neve...

People are buying indie retro games that I could've played on my gameboy, sometimes for $30+! Graphics are not the issue. Social Atmosphere is. We had players to make that atmosphere, now we do not. The obvious issue is keeping current players and providing more for them to enjoy. They'll tell their...

http://illarion.org/media/statistics/us_actplayers.png I reeally want to point out the difference in change between the German and English accs. The German accs have remained relatively consistent with dips and spikes following the trends of the english accs, BUT! The english accs are far more chao...

Admittedly my motivation has been fleeting these past couple days. I just find that rp itself can be frustrating with characters whom are controlling and who kinda disregard whatever you say and make their own delusional assumptions, I get these are characters and not players but at what point are y...

It appears the Academic council hasn't even set foot outside the town, it seems they are more interested in putting indictments on someone for leaving wood around.

I don't think Shamanism and arcane magic really have any difference from a lore standpoint on Illarion, it's merely another name for a 'magic user'. I don't think there will be more specific magical classes nor is there really a need to, keep in mind it takes some time for a warrior or a crafter or ...

A note is posted in the library. Greetings people of Runewick, I've been living here for some time and have no idea of the legal structure of the town. There are no guards or magistrates to ask, and most people just refer you to "The Bearers of Fire". There is no way to seek legal advice, ...
