Fear me, daemons!

Uhm... yeah. Well, I think I used to have a warhammer equipped once when I logged out, recently when I logged in again I had the blocking symbol up there permanently on the off-hand equipment field, and it's not leaving despite weapons breaking.

Fight and "break" it. A gm might be able to remove it too.

How about this:

When a player tries to equip a two-handed-weapon, the server checks if anything is in the other hand and if so, refuse to equip it. How about a check if the item equipped is the red circle and allow it then?

It is brutal. First we chop off their old, non-working hand, off at the wrist, then sew a new one on. However, the new one has a vicious enchantment upon it that makes the player subservient to GM's for the rest of their lives.

Hand blocked after two handed weapoon breakage

Post by Nop »

:cry:
I have fallen prey to the two handed weapon breakage hand blocker bug.

Could somebody please fixe the lonely blocking symbol from Adigar Lobarods right hand?

Is there an organized way to address a Game Master directly?

Here is what I would do to contact a GM if I am in need:

1. type "!gm Your message" ingame. Any GM ingame gets this message
2. Use ICQ or MSN or IRC (#illarion on quakenet) to contact a GM. You can find the ICQ/MSN-addys here on this board.
3. PM a GM ;-)
4. Send an email

workaround

Post by Nop »

I have been able to find a workaround for the problem:

- equip useless weapon in other hand
- attack pigs until blocking sign breaks

Yes, the blocked hand also break. Happened to me twice. This can be easyly solved by re-equiping your double handed item.

Solution

Post by Nop »

See my post above. The safe solution to a blocked hand is:

- equip a cheap weapon in free hand
- attack pigs until blocking sign breaks
