Some questions on items currently for auction

We have never to the best of my knowledge had a camel in-game in CLOK. I am wondering if we are bidding on the equivalent of a riding horse, of a warhorse, or on something else altogether. Could we hitch the camel to a wagon and have him pull it? Could we put saddlebags on him, saddle, or anything e...

Lance bug or description incongruity

I have several crafted lances. When I examine any of them, part of the readout on each is: It is a huge item, mainly made of steel. It is a type of lance, capable of doing pierce damage. It could be wielded in mounted combat, but not on foot, its effectiveness dependent on your Polearms skill. It co...

Festival items with excessive weights, typos, etc

Browsing through all the many wonderful items available over at the Grum Fest, I noticed some distractors on some of the items. First of all, in a couple of shops, there are cloaks, coats, jackets, etc that weigh in at a whopping 4 pounds. I am pretty sure that no where else in CLOK towns do cloaks ...

Re: Additional Weapon Specialization Abilities, with examples

Chain specialization: inertia control. A chance for the chain weapon to try to roll for another hit if dodged. The second attack will have significantly lowered hit and damaged rolls however. Truth be told, when a chain wraps around someone's weapon or shield, and still strikes the defender, it sho...

Re: Armor forging: brigandine head protection

I asked about this not long after the changes that introduced schematics. It was explained to me that it was on purpose. While there are real life examples of a brigandine style head piece, they were quite rare and often problematic. That last bit was my own research. I don't have links as that was...

Clarification of Rules of Auction

It's been a while since we had an auction in CLOK. I do recall from years back, that the system employed was the one known as "Second-Price Sealed-Bid Auction", an official description of which could be viewed here: https://www.econport.org/econport/request?page=man_auctions_secondpricesea...

Re: About email addresses linked to accounts

The other thing, is I imported a legacy character into my account, and whenever I log in that character, I get the message, "You do not have an e-mail address associated with this character..." or somesuch. Shouldn't be getting that message any more as the account system should supercede it.

Re: Additional Weapon Specialization Abilities, with examples

I didn't mean cleaving with the staff. I meant, if you landed a cleave on me and i parried it with my staff, my staff would be damaged or split by your cleave. Also the double damage I referred to was not to the person's wounds, as charging does, but to his armor (vambraces) and/or shield. And maybe...

Re: Shields that act as containers for hurled javelins/spears?

In general, the one item in each hand max that CLOK has (that most other muds don't) has gone too far when it comes to shields. A person should be able to hold an item in their shield hand while not in combat...hold on to, not necessarily use effectively. Although for an item like a torch, simply be...

Re: Additional Weapon Specialization Abilities, with examples

While I generally agree that no more benefits should be added for swords, if you look at those current abilities, they benefit only light swords. The balance I feel is tipped to far away from those sluggish two handed swords. To correct this, I propose that the above-mentioned Cleave ability apply w...

You know, in the centre of the Mummer's Camp you have storytelling, musicians, players performing plays, similar entertainment like juggling, I think, etc. This as much as anything else in game is going to boost your spirits. Let's make that place a Gathering Spot as well, please and thank you.

Armor forging: brigandine head protection

There is no armor pattern for brigandine to protect the head. Would you be able to add in the schematic for the brigandine cap, please, In line with other schematics, I suppose it would use one soft leather helm plus a 6-pound metal bar.

Thank you for that reply, Noctere, that takes the guessing out of it.


If anyone wants to copy and past in game for quick reference:

note add Armor protection levels, ranked: Nigh Impervious, Extreme, Excellent, Great, Good, Decent, Fair, Poor, Bad, Terrible.
