Hi folks. I saw you on the server list.
A few questions.
1. What is the level range like?
2. Is it a real role playing server? Some of the things I saw on the forums make me worry. Is it a dungeon crawl where role playing is encouraged, i.e. dragon coast, or really, role playing?
3. What is the death penalty on the server when you die?
Also a small note. On the details for the server, it shows as theswordcoast.proboards89.... there is no .com. I am tech savy and it took me a while to figure out it got left off. New players are the life blood of any server and if you want to attract more, perhaps edit the message a bit to fit in those 4 extra characters?

Although I haven't been on recently (real life and all, bah), I'll answer these as best I can. 1. You start at level 1, and last time I was on there were people in the high teens, nearing 20, which I believe the DMs agreed was too much level-gaining, too fast... however, gaining levels that fast involves much repetitive grinding. My own highest is I think 12th or 13th level and that is mainly from going on DM-run quests and the occasional hunting session. 2. The rules, as I know them, state to play how you want as long as you don't ruin anyone else's fun. That being said, I have seen groups that do not roleplay, groups that mainly roleplay while out doing stuff, and others that you can just sit around town with, playing dice and discussing the local (in-game) news over drinks. I, personally, am a fan of the latter two (love the last one, but everyone's gotta go monster hunting now and then ;D ). If you ever see me in game, feel free to send me a tell and say hi, or just walk up and start roleplaying. 3. This one i'm not overly certain of off the top of my head, but there are posts around here about it. I'll see if I can dig up the links and will edit my post when I find them. EDIT: This is the most recent I could find. I hope this helps. www.theswordcoast.proboards89.com/index.cgi?board=issueswithxp&action=display&thread=211&page=1#1312 |

If dragoncoast isnt RP enough then I dont know what to tell you. We all RP but nobody wants to have to have a background story for every skill/stat/feat/power or crap they take. Death penalty is 5% exp loss, 2.5% if resses but you have a chance to pull thru after receiving a mortal blow. This system is good imo, as at low levels 5% exp is nothing and at high levels you can be 99% to level, die and be back to square one. Though you wont delevel. Level range...there are a few low to mid twenties already but not many, and its prety much unrealistic to get much higher although possible. |

I would like to add that the DM run quests are the best I have seen online. I don't mean that there are none better but I have seen half a dozen others on the servers I frequent and these guys are fun to play with.

Never happened to me. Actually, he ran some of my favorite events. He is a bit crazy for gigantic creatures, but it doesn't get in the way of your fun  -Raffael |

When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on!

All that for 28gold? That's cleptomania setting in... or perhaps paranoia

I hate to say it, but unless there was some glitch in the server. When I died I lost a level. I was on the border line. I had the rapid shot feat, and it was gone. I had reached a prestige class, and it was gone.

Your a ranger then I suppose? if not have you checked your feats list to see if it remains on your character sheet, might just be a missing UI icon?
