| Frequently Asked Questions |
I play on a network with a couple of friends,
will we be in trouble?
So long as we see that you do all your communication
in game and don’t do anything suspicious regarding equipment transfers,
it’s fine. Any “telepathic” looking actions where
it appears your characters work with each other without saying a word
will be dealt with by an immortal.
Help! I’m stuck
in a place I can’t get out of!
First of all, try moving in all six directions (North, South, East,
West, Up, Down) and see if you bump into a door. If no, then you should
try asking another player for help. Most places can be gotten out of
by yourself, others can be gotten out of by asking for help. If you
are notified that the place you are stuck in is requires immortal assistance
to get out of, then you may pray for immortal assistance.
How come no one answers
my prayers?
Immortals are very busy and often will be dealing with several things
at once. Please be patient and do not spam a prayer or quit out seconds
after praying.
How do I pray to a certain
immortal?
You can include their name in the prayer, but all immortals see all
prayers. There’s no “private” prayer channel.
I’m in the Realm
of the Dead. Where am I?
You are in an immortal holding cell. It could mean you’re either
in trouble or you are required to do something by the Immortals.
I’m in the Realm
of the Hoarders, where am I?
Characters are required to be in game for a certain amount of hours
within a 30 day period. If you logged in two seconds a day for thirty
days, it likely is not enough. Neither is showing up for twenty four
hours in a row for one day only. It is not calculated by calendar months,
but by a system count. If you are within the Realm of the Hoarders you
will be purged of your limited equipment before being allowed to return
to the game.
Do I lose experience
points for dying?
No. However you will accrue a penalty towards your next level that keeps
adding up for each death to an NPC, requiring more experience to level
up to the next level. Getting PKed does not give this penalty.
How come my armor class
is negative?
Negative is good. The lower the number (larger negative), the better.
If you have a positive armor class, you’ll take quite a bit of
damage and get hit very often.
Is botting allowed while
training skills?
So long as you respond within a couple of minutes if an immortal contacts
you, you’re fine. You are forbidden to bot while you go to sleep
or work or basically are not at the computer.
What are saves?
Saves help prevent certain negative magical effects. The lower the number,
the better.
What’s the difference
between normal saves and the others?
Normal saves protect against everything the others do but not very well.
Breath, Maledictions, Transport, and Spell saves protect very well against
the things that affect them only. Breath protects against breath weapon
type attacks. Maledictions protects against all harmful spells such
as poison and plague. Transport protects against being summoned or gated
to. Spell saves protects against the damage from spells. Saves also
protect against other things too numerous to mention
How do I form a clan?
You will have to find the NPC that makes clans and pay it to form your
clan. Be aware that clans without much story and/or are completely PK
oriented are heavily frowned upon.
Do clans get powers?
No. Refer to HELP CLAN to see what clans get.
How do I make a house?
You cannot make a house.
After level 51, do I
become an immortal?
No. Immortals are administrators hand picked to work on Dark Mists and
immortality cannot be attained in any way other than being “hired”.
