Task 3: Rescue a parrot from pet shop storage in Olaria.

pet shop storage? Thankfully these truly inaccessible places (at least I think this is) are pretty rare.

I might have mentioned this elsewhere, but I thought it might be a good idea if echoes such as Vengeance's flavor text, or the fiail, or the Evenhand signet ring, etc, could all be muted when in Rift.

Possibly even add a toggle for players to personally mute them in general? But the first one for sure. :P

Forgot to mention I'm pretty sure this applies to scrolls too.

I'm not sure if you'd call this a bug or not. Brewed potions though. They don't have their spell affect as part of their keywords, and I think they should. It's annoying have to sort through 100 potions in a bag, trying to figure out if you need to get 45.potion bag or 69.potion bag, when I feel like we should be able to do "get guile bag" or "get deathsight bag" etc.

For some reason, after dying (I THINK this was the catalyst- it seemed to work beforehand) and self res'ing with Geldof, I was unable to bite. Using bite in any capacity returned "You don't really hang fangs for biting" or whatever it is that it says. (This happened yesterday)

Logging out and in again seems to fix it. No idea if this is just Sith or Vamps too.

the skill envenom seems to have a LARGE amount of lag behind it. Doesn't seem logical that this would be deliberate.

It also seems to wear off at strange intervals. For example I've gotten the dries up and wears off messages in separate ticks, but I've also gotten them both at the exact same time.

Could be confused on this one. So I put a bunch of coffins in a Scarm's coffin, which is supposed to cut the weight of its contents in half, yeah? It did no such thing. It looks like maybe items that weigh 1 aren't included in the weight division? The total weight was still 120 or whatever the amount of potions I had in there was, each weighing 1.

The Boots of Zanthar apparently can't be put into a container, even though I got it out from a container. Was an old global reward, I believe.

Also no idea what the "float_user" flag on it does.

It doesn't seem to work. Detect hidden, when cast, seems to apply as if it wasn't already there. Tested with another player, I cannot in fact see hidden people without casting it.

There is a chest in Mystica that when it resets contains 2500 gold and sometimes some other shit like the spidersilk gauntlets. It's in that area with the 6 chests. It's the northern middle one.

Anyway… It would appear that if anyting is placed in the chest, when you "get all chest" after opening it when it resets, you get 2500 gold for each unique item in the chest. I was told that there seemed to be a bug with the chest yesterday that involved placing items within it, but they didn't know the details. I decided to test it out and sure enough you can get stupid amounts of gold from it. I'm not entirely sure how much I got, but if you review the logs, please let me know so I can give it back or throw it away or whatever so that I don't get in any kind of trouble. =P

Unless I'm told otherwise I'd like to continue looting the chest as normal for the gold and items, but will not be placing shit in there to dupe the gold.

Again, please let me know how much to return. It's lost in my scrollback at this point.

So, I've had a thing happen where I was meaning to put stuff in a container in my inventory, and it put it in a similar container on the ground instead. I don't know if this qualifies as a bug.

However, I was wondering if maybe it could be made so that when you put a thing in a container, it checks your inventory for the container keyword before checking the ground?

Like if I have a treasure chest in my inventory, it would put the item in that, instead of the treasure chest that's on the ground, by default.

The white king governs his army.

'You've killed the King! Give it to me!' exclaims the white king.

give king king

You give a black king chess piece to the white king.

'You've done well!' exclaims the white king. 'That crown is an artifact needed to break through to the lower levels. To invoke the runes of the lower level, you need this magical prism.'

'To get through the maze, spell Mishkal. After that you must do battle with the Wind Elemental. If you are fortunate enough to defeat him, spell Mystica to get access to the end.' says the white king.

'This key unlocks the door in the center, hero. Farewell.' says the white king.

He gave me nothing. And I appear to need this key to progress further down.

If you use kill spell or slit throat to kill your quest target, it doesn't count.

It seems like when I take my mount into combat, if he gets the last hit, I don't get any XP.

on the floor of Mystica with the forest maze with the mobs that have strips of paper, some of the mobs seem to randomly vanish, sometimes mid-combat. The dreaming wanderer vanished this morning, and just now the vile lizardman vanished mid-fight. Is there a purpose for this, or is this a bug? Figured I'd best report it either way. Much of Mystica eludes my understanding.

I like this, but keep in mind that a lot of people are, well, lazy, and would want to have shortcuts. Could a system like this be shortcut?

Also, I think that having shortcuts and shortform would be critical to gameplay, since things would be quite slowed down if everyone had to type everything out in long form. Proper, yes, but it would annoy a lot of people. Say I was typing that to attack Lukus. He would have ample time to get away in the time I'm typing that, most likely, and I'm a pretty decent typist.

That's my only issue with it. Gamers as a general rule are lazy and want things to go at a reasonable pace to keep them entertained.

Test.
