Ich würde auch gerne wissen was für Attribute die Ringe haben. Ich merke nämlich keinen unterschied zwischen ihnen:(

Kammeron · Post by **Kammeron** » Sun May 12, 2002 8:34 pm

You can read it in the libary of illarion. With jewels you can make rings and the rings are to save your skills... They do not save your skill complitly but a little bit.

Kammeron · Post by **Kammeron** » Sun May 12, 2002 8:37 pm

The rings are different strong some are save your skills masterlike other not so.

it is I, Morgaine, goldsmith and always to your duty if you have money enough to pay for the rings. Morgaine laughs.

I can tell you of some gems - the rubyring increases your life status, even if you are hungry, the bluestonering does the same with mana - the diamondring is for mages only, it makes your casting easier or learning the spells (can´t really tell) and the blackstonering is for protection from beeing hit by somebody - it is a very powerful ring (must increase parry)

the other gems... I dont really know, never tried them.

last advice - come to my place buy a ring and try it out yourself, if you don´t find it to your liking you can have another one of the same value to try out. smacc prices here.

Morgaine bows to the audience.

Kammeron · Post by **Kammeron** » Sun May 12, 2002 9:03 pm

But Morgaine Le Fay you wrote things that i never noticed...i noticed that till i weared rings my skills do not running down if i died.
Is it a lie?
I am ready to learn more...

Morgaine schaut Kammeron mit ernster miene an und fragt "Glaubt ihr wirklich ich würde unwahrheiten über die von mir genannten ringe erzählen, um mein geschäft besser aufzubessern?"

Woems · Post by **Woems** » Sun May 12, 2002 10:05 pm

@Morgaine:

Im Auftrag Kammerons:

Kammeron meinte nicht, dass du lügst, sondern hat nur berichtet, dass seine Skills nicht so schnell runter gehen, wenn er Ringe trägt und stirbt. Dannach fragte er dich, ob dies nicht stimmern würde. Auserdem meinte er, dass er bereit wäre dazu zu lernnen. Er entschuldigt sich für die Ungenauigkeit.

PS: Ich habe das unter Einfluß eines, mir unbekannten Zaubers geschrieben, den Kammeron Telefon nennt:).

Morgaine Le Fay · Post by **Morgaine Le Fay** » Sun May 12, 2002 10:32 pm

verstehe... ich hab nicht gemerkt, dass meine skills weniger schnell im falle eines todes sinken wenn ich ringe an meinen fingern trage - nur das sie gewisse eigenschafften verbessern - wie zb. die regeneration von mana wenn man den blauen trägt, die regeneration der lebenspunkte wenn man den roten trägt, die höhere wahrscheinlichkeit einen spruch sprechen zu können wenn man den diamantring trägt oder die niedrigere wahrscheinlichkeit von waffen getroffen zu werden wenn man den schwarzen trägt. bei den anderen hab ich noch nicht experimentiert...

aber für den violetten, den grünen und den topaz hab ich schon eine theorie... muss das mal ausprobieren wenn der server wieder up ist - bis dorthin möchte ich noch nichts darüber sagen

gruesse euch

Grüße Freunde.
Ich trage nun seit längerem Ringe, einen Goldring und einen Roten trug ich auch mal.
Ich verlor Skills, als ich mit beiden Ringen starb.
Als Freundschaftsgeschenk bekam ich einen Amesthyt Ringe geschenkt, als ich 2 mal kurz nacheinander starb (scheiß pk) hatte ich keine skills verloren, der Amesthyt Ring scheint also tatsächlich die Skills zu sichern, wenn man stirbt.

Welche Freude..... schon wieder das Thema.

Ich weiß gar nicht mehr, wie viele Theorien es gibt, welcher Ring was bewirkt.
Ich für meinen Teil kann, egal welchen Ring ich trage, KEINEN Unterschied irgendeiner feststellbaren art finden.

Ich habe also das Gefühl, das Geheimnis der Ringe wird noch länger ungelöst bleiben.
Eventuelle Theorien hör ich mir allerdings immer gern an....

just compare it to RL: when you find a ring -- and suppose there exists magic in our common world -- you don't know what it does as well. it's the same here: you'll have to find out what the property of each ring is. of course that's not one of those easy tasks where you just have to look it up in a list, but you'll have to do tricky experiments and so on.

good luck in finding out,

martin, sv

Erdrick · Post by **Erdrick** » Mon May 13, 2002 1:35 pm

The only clue that has been given that I can remember is that the Ruby Rings increase power. The others have not been said, and are most likely untrue. I believe the purpose for these will be programmed for the next version.
Morgaine le Fay, where do you get the silly idea that ruby rings regenerate your life meter? I have been wearing one for a long time, and not once did my life meter regenerate without food.

Sharag · Post by **Sharag** » Mon May 13, 2002 2:33 pm

But martin, we don't find these rings, we produce them ourselves and still don't know, which effects they have.
Normally, this could mean only one thing: They do nothing at all, because how can we provide an item with something, we don't know of?

martin · Post by **martin** » Mon May 13, 2002 3:33 pm

you find the resources.

Sir Malasan · Post by **Sir Malasan** » Mon May 13, 2002 6:18 pm

Hmm, also ich habe gute Erfahrungen mit den grünen und den roten Ringen gemacht. Die roten steigern die Abwehr: Bin zu den Mumien gelaufen (total nackt außer den ring) und sie haben mir nicht soviel abgezogen wie beim 2. mal.

Die grünen scheinen Mana schneller aufzubauen nicht die blauen: Mit einem grünen Ring ist die Mana 1 Minute schneller voll (gestoppt

) als mit anderen.
Ich hoffe das euch diese Erfahrungen weiterhelfen.

my life meter always regenerates (and usually quite slow) just stand still.

Ifrit · Post by **Ifrit** » Mon May 13, 2002 6:37 pm

i used to wear a ruby ring and i had a good defence and i noticed that when i switched to 2 diamond rings my defence weakened so i am switching back

Your life meter will only regenerate if you have eaten though.

These topics are senseless, there are several theories 'bout the rings and this question is truelly senseless.

Nastasja · Post by **Nastasja** » Mon May 13, 2002 7:15 pm

wow, I didn't suppose that the rings could be so powerful... I just think that I'll have a try myself.... I always knew that there's something about them!

There is only one question left: What does the crown do?

Baraktul · Post by **Baraktul** » Mon May 13, 2002 7:19 pm

The crown exists to please vanity...

Erdrick · Post by **Erdrick** » Tue May 14, 2002 2:07 am

What are you talking about? First of all, it's been said that skilldrop is somewhat to chance, and the matter of time you spend out of a solid form determines the amount of drop. You are probably getting lucky.
The reason for regeneration is that the food you ate exceeded the end of the bar, so the regeneration properties of the food carried over to the next time you were hurt. Think about that next time you gobble a few too many porkchops (there is a new "you are full" message, or something like that now)
And to the crown: Think about it, who would wear a little band around their head in a battle? Not a very smart one. And vanity? Every person of same race - same gender look exactly the same.
Welcome to the Main board.

Morgaine Le Fay · Post by **Morgaine Le Fay** » Tue May 14, 2002 4:21 pm

to erdrick:

so you call me silly? maybe you should call me naive as well - since my char can smith rings i try to find out what they are there for - I put em on, do some experiment and do that experiment again without that ring, than again with the same ring and then again with some other ring - and what i noticed is what i had written down.

some people say rings do nothing at all - maybe those people are even more silly or do they try to act more realistic? (or they don´t have an eye for slight improvements on their char?)well since we play in a world of magic i suppose that those rings do have some of that magic spirit, too - if you don´t want to believe that it is your own fault - i will keep on doing my experiments so i know what my char is exactly producing when smithing gold rings.

maybe i am wrong when i say the ruby one is regenerating life faster, but at least it gave me that impression - i haven´t yet come to do experiments with the saphir, amethyst and topaz - true enough that i might still recorrect my opinion on some rings - but as i said - that´s the impression diamond, ruby, black- and bluestone had given me so far.

Erdrick · Post by **Erdrick** » Tue May 14, 2002 9:08 pm

I never called you silly, but I don't think you are listening to me. I've been playing for quite a while, and have played enough to do more than a couple of experiments. Maybe the rings do do something, but I have worn a Rubyring almost the entire time I've played, listening to the advice of the programmers that it gives me power. Not once has my life regenerated without the help of food. And it seems as if it actually gives me power, it is a very minute amount.
