I just reactivated after a three year hiatus, and Vaalor is a ghost town compared to what it was, and seems to be almost entirely populated by Windamere/Prudence/Mhirhaid's characters or wannabes.

WTH happened to that place?

lol no but I remember that chick.

I'm talking about the pompous ass woman who has hissy fits over nothing and is supremely concerned with her own importance.

Who is she? Maybe I'll head over there and act more important than her. I bet that'll get her all nice and pissy.

To answer your original question, GS as a whole is a ghost town these days.

Wow, I want to go find this Mhiraid chick and mess with her now.

Mhiraid has always been a cunt from what I remember, I never, ever, ever liked her. I don't understand why someone would "RP" being a bitch all the time unless she really is one. And a fat one at that too, I bet.

She and her boy toy are probably the worst thing about Vaalor, she is a total cunthead and he just follows along agreeing with her. (Why do men do this anyway? A pussy isn't ever THAT good)

But Vaalor sucks ass, always has.

Apart from Mhiraid (and her hoarde of many), since Ta'Vaalor's 'rebuilding' I have to say it's just not fun any more. Used to start all my noobs there, ran them through CoL or Voln, AG tasks, etc. But now with the need for 'official documents', everyone who IS there seems to be militia (which I guess would be normal for Vaalor), and the fact that most of the town is no longer mapped for Atlas..feh. I just bring them to Landing. I understand wanting to RP, but since the RP in Vaalor is inherently racist, and even citizens have to show papers, hardly worth it.

pardon my ignorance, what do you mean by having to show papers? I haven't been to vaalor in about 4-5 years

Papers are essentially your identification that you need to deal with the shops in town, though the shops in the Ravelin don't require them. You'll also hit a 15 second RT whenever you try to go through one of the gates to go into town if you don't have any papers.

To be honest, I don't understand the issue with papers. You go to the citizenship clerk, pay a small fee (unless you're a citizen and they're free), stuff the papers in your cloak and forget about it for a month. The system will automatically take your papers out for you whenever they're called for so long as you've got them. It's really not that much of a hassle.

As far as Atlas, well, I'll just point out that Lich not only has it mapped for go2, but it has an actual updated map. :D

Seems the best way to bother her is to be a vulture empath. (And you don;t even really have to be one, she'll accuse you anyhow) Have at her!

(In retrospect, why did they come up with pretend words for the Human Empire's classification scheme but not the Elves'? That doesn't make any sense.)

The clerk lets the wax dry a moment before passing it to you and saying, "Your identification papers for one month, Kanyda." As she passes the document over, she collects a fee of 5200 from you.



For a young character that's actually a lot of money. I've only made about 30k so far since he was rolled up.

And you leave boxes lying around that you don't think there's a locksmith to pick...

Shame, sir, shame!

There's one 1/5 times at best. Just not worth it to pick them up, deal with them, worry about RT, etc. If T'V pickers want more boxes they need to be on duty more often.

I don't think I ever interacted with her in-game, probably because I was no great fan of Ta'Vaalor. But I recall her annoying the piss out of me on the officials.

:yeahthat:

I deliberately skim read all her and Welcha's posts because they're usually snide, arrogant and negative. I also avoid all her characters for the same reasons.

I logged in with my cleric while I was drunk once a long, long time ago, read about 6 lines of her bitching herself blue in the face about something stupid and just said, "Shut up you fat cow."

I was both proud (of the reaction) and ashamed (for doing that with my sweet little cleric).

Does it really still say Gemstone III when you need to re-name your character?

Sorry ... I didn't think about the pressing timeline for the release of monks and how hard it's being worked on. It probably pushed it back more than 45 seconds.

You see Goldamere.
He appears to be a Giantman of the Grot'karesh Clan.
He is tall and appears to be of full age. He has piercing jade green eyes and copper skin. He has shoulder length, shiny coal black hair with lighter streaks. He has a square-jawed face, a classical nose and deep laugh lines.
He has some minor cuts and bruises on his left leg.
He is holding a plain fel chest in his right hand.
He is wearing a quilled deerskin backpack, a grey wolf hide cloak, a crystal amulet, a small bone-beaded pouch, some laced wolfskin boots, a pair of elk hide breeches, a bone-fringed headband, and a small shield emblazoned with a golden key.

Tee he!

It's random at the gates. Sometimes the system automatically waves your papers around for the guards to see, sometimes they stop you, you get RT, and they holler at you for not having them out.

Same thing with every merchant and shop in town, except player shops. You might be able to make one or two purchases without having them in your hand, after that they start to get snarky with you and you have to take them out. Selling, you can forget unless you already have them out.

Really it is kind of a pain in the backside.
