Title: Manual Management
Post by: hugo on May 07, 2006, 09:31:44 pm
We all know the power of manuals, some classes rely on them to be equal to others at hero level. There have been times when I found manuals on almost every corpse I killed within an hour, but of course that doesn't occurr when I'm playing a class that actually requires them. What I propose is a sort of management and recycling that would allow theplayers to see these manuals.

Having teleported myself around lately, I noticed that a few very high level and hard to kill mobs have some very minimal manuals (feast of flesh etc). I think it would be in the playerbases best interest if these mobs were stripped of the manuals so they could repop somewhere where players in their 20-30's would actually be able to find them.

Its really annoying how often manuals pop on reboots and never any other time. Ive spent hours in places like edges and not a single book or manual appears. WHY? Of all places you can find a manual you'd expect to see them in the strongest zones . . .

Auto manual respawning system would come soon.

Somewhat has to be done indeed. I have played 3 fighters to 35+, and no one of them had a single manual, despite the fact I spent numerous hours searching for them.

I've been playing Solace constantly for more than a year, during which I created 3 assassin, yet i've found only one manual for them... And i've been EVERYWHERE! What's wrong with manuals? Do they appear only after the reboot?

No they do not, though after reboot you can find them practically anywhere. In the last three days i found around five(and one actually for my char!) by respawning. Boring, but still. And by the way, one was mocking bird.   8) :P ;)
