  • O noes, the xp table makes it so you can't get to the end game within a week!!!1 ...So? Gemstone isn't about the endgame. Although there are things to do at the endgame (you can still gain experience to get more skill), it's not like other MMOs …
  • I bet they just want the game to fully exist rather than tell us what will be. Beta would satisfy our appetites for information much more than these articles ever could.
  • It would appear that your cries have been heard. A new article on Wyr has just been posted.
  • He wouldn't be inquiring about the release date if he thought the game was bad.
  • This game is not all instanced. This is a complete misconception. There are common areas, and Gamemasters will be adding to them and to the instanced quests all the time. Also, this is not Dragonrealms 2. For one, this game may take place between G…
  • It's a wise move to delay the game if it will just completely wreck the market with the uberness it obtains from the delay. Besides, just because the live release is delayed until mid 2007 doesn't mean we can't play the game in 2006. Beta ftw!
  • Originally posted by Orcc Originally posted by Shroom_Mage Warrior/Rogue- Swashbuckler Swashbuckler would be a Rogue/Bard, not warrior. Or at least it should be... you say R/B was a Dirge in a screenshot, maybe it will be changed by release? Nah…
  • # Warrior/Healer - Paladin # Warrior/Cleric - Templar This is most likely incorrect. In Gemstone IV, which is also set in the world of Elanthia and part of the HJ timeline, Paladins are a combination of a warrior and a cleric, as they can cast spir…
  • Last I knew, you couldn't put the same class in the primary and secondary slot.
  • Last I knew, they would show only if you wanted them to.
  • Many quests you can do solo, at any level. Or you can group with people at any level difference. So if you and your buddies want to do a quest together, you can, despite your levels. I don't think every quest will be like that though. But a lot wil…
  • What I'm curious about is how do healers heal? In DR they physically transfer the wounds to themselves from the damaged one, but I'm assuming they'll just use magic in HJ? Considering that GS and DR also take place in Elanthia, and the healers in b…
  • Anyone over level 160 was automatically capped at level 100. They were granted the special titles to show they had made it that far first. Right. Keyword: *was* over 160. And the change was necessary as there was a bug in the experience equati…
  • So to achieve 160 you might have to play for about 10-40 years. Rough estimate, but I doubt anyone playing Gemstone has achieved 160 and it's been around for 15 years I think. The only guy that I've heard of as the longest-time player was years ago…
  • I think they would raise the level cap if there were enough players at it. Maybe. But many of Simu's games do not have a level cap, and those that do now used not to, and the cap takes so long to obtain that there's no need to raise it. Plus, when…
  • Is this game any better than any other MMO on the market? Going on what I've heard about it, and my knowledge of Simutronics, a resounding yes. Is it true to grouping, all the way to the end? Or is it betraying groupers like all the others unfai…
  • Are you saying Simultronic is not caring at all about the fanbase and can't care less? ROFLcopter. The simple fact that Simutronics employees are posting on MMORPG.com and taking suggestions from the players that post here during development tell …
  • But in a general sense, is the combat similar like DR? where it's based on 1 or 2 critical hit kills as oppose to a "you hit mob for 10 damage" spam until mob reachs 0 hp? You'll have to do HP kills rather than crit kills. Will you physically tr…
  • Has anyone ever played GS for over 3 months and them moved to DR and liked that more? I liked DR's skill system more. But I liked GS's world and mechanics in general better. Why? Rogues and warriors could cast spells. DFRedux. The Gift of Lumnis…
  • Seriously the combat system in DR must be carried over!! This to me is what will make or break the game, and a personal dream of mine to see DR's combat system in full graphical glory! Some of what you saw in DR is going to be in HJ. Balance, if I …
