The World of Avlis

It was good fun dropping into Avlis (and Nayala) again. Big thanks to all who made it happen, and kudos for sending out a newsletter to get our attention!

No promises... but it was fun!

I think you may be confusing this with Micah's DLNR (Dry Loot No Recovery)!

An awesome faux-news post for April Fool's would be to say that the US Government was changing April Fool's Day to the 2nd! As part of sequester financing, or energy savings, or further distinguishing US culture from its British roots, or...

YOU are the best weapon. Everything else is purely decorative flavour! (will weaken your damage potential, but increase your intrestingness)


Having said that, gloves are your best chance to enhance the damage you already do with your "fists" which far outstrip any base weapon.

Thank you and congratulations Xaila and PlasmaJohn!

Maybe we can just vote for "March" as RPotM?

Oh yeah?!?? I voted for myself even twicer!

Doesn't calculate monk's unarmed AB progression correctly (uses -5 instead of -3).

*coughs* I actually completely forgot... But I can make Thursday.

First, nice redesign! I'm really looking forward to exploring my new Elysia. Please understand that this statement is the most important part of this post!! Second, why is the Warehouse district so far from the docks, trades, and markets? From a logistics perspective, this makes no sense to me. Espe...

The only downside? I will miss the White Lady stories.

*sings loudly* Rave, rave, rave, rave

So... it seems that the problem occurs when the "Enable Environment Shadows" is checked. *shrugs*

I'll just have to remember to uncheck it before I go in... It isn't like I'm liable to visit all that often!

I'll double check which .haks I have. I'm usually on top of those, but maybe I missed one somewhere along the way. I figured maybe it was a really strong Unhallow spell that was keeping out my LG character by crashing my machine!

Anyone else having this problem? NWN locks my computer pretty hard when I enter the temple. I don't know of any problems elsewhere in Avlis. No error messages or anything, just sits at the load screen and won't respond.

I'm running on Win7 64-bit and I can't remember the last time it barfed to desktop!

Sorry to have killed the conversation here.Did I say something wrong? *sniff sniff* maybe I need a shower? Or is it just me? ;) Heh... I suspect that nobody wanted to get into a "Hasbro killed D&D" discussion again. Probably my bad for bringing it up, but I was curious since no-one I know that play...

Sure looks pretty... but I can already play NWN online... *continues search for Saturday babysitters* Now that a couple of years have gone by, can any of you D&D 4.0 players who have played the previous rulesets give an opinion on whether 4.0 still "feels like D&D"? That would be my biggest concern ...

Woahg rats!!

Way over aggressive hay-grain rats? I don't believe they exist!

Yeah... I have to agree with Gorgon here. I've had a 20% XP penalty since 15th level (now 36th), and while it certainly torpedoed the XP on the old system, it doesn't seem to be a problem these days... or maybe I've just gotten used to it. Of course, the 40 level cap will be a much bigger issue than...

Nice! Added in!


Thanks!


Although I can't see myself loading up NWN much anymore now that my home is completely overridden with Drotid SCUM!

It might actually stay NOT raining in Elysia for 5 minutes!!
