[Bug ?] Equiping Lazurite Robe with 1 int
Reporting this irregularity, I equiped the robe with the stats specified below, and I'm supposed to have 70 int to equip it. ☺
Re: [Bug ?] Equiping Lazurite Robe with 1 int
It's not possible to actually unequip something (safely at least) when you don't meet the requirements (except possibly with a timer, but that's kind of complcated).
So, it just doesn't give the bonuses.

What I mean is with 1 intelligence I'm not supposed to be able to equip it.
Re: [Bug ?] Equiping Lazurite Robe with 1 int
Right, what *I* am saying is that its not possible in the server to stop you from equipping it.

Re: [Bug ?] Equiping Lazurite Robe with 1 int
Weird, there was a time period where I was not able to equip Bull Helmet as a mage when testing before release with V0id. In fact it was also because I could equip it once, that V0id changed the item characteristics. And according to some talks, it was not possible to equip these items before yesterday's server restart.o11c wrote:Right, what *I* am saying is that its not possible in the server to stop you from equipping it.

There have been times when items *were* set to unequip in their equip scripts. But this is buggy and messes with lots of stat calculations.

I can wear the Bull helmet now and take advantage of the defensive bonus. There is a problem...
Edit: DB file still prevents lower level equip

Re: [Bug ?] Equiping Lazurite Robe with 1 int
i hope, it can be fixed
that option makes the game much more RPGish and i whish to see it on more items(like Warlord Armory) to restrict the different classes

Re: [Bug ?] Equiping Lazurite Robe with 1 int
The Lazurite Robe, Banshee Bow and Bull Helmet have been changed in the restart that happened 2 days ago.
Now those items can be equipped even if you don't meet the required stats, but you don't get the bonus & malus they provide in this case (it still cant be equipped if you don't meet the require level).
See this
The reason behind this change was an exploit made possible with an illegitimate temporary bonus granted when force-unequipping the item when stats weren't met.
Also, read the description of the items as it has been updated according to this change.

I didn't see it much as a problem that the bull helmet still provides 19 defense while not giving the other bonus/malus, but I guess it could be changed to fit the spirit.I can wear the Bull helmet now and take advantage of the defensive bonus. There is a problem...

Is there an emergency plan to correct the buggy server code and make the items consistent to their previous design?

It sounds like this was the emergency plan to correct an exploit that was caused by buggy code.Nard wrote:Is there an emergency plan to correct the buggy server code and make the items consistent to their previous design?
To me, an exploit that gives some people an unfair advantage might be considered an "emergency." An item which can be equipped for appearance but no benefit sounds "undesirable" but not an "emergency."
When you ask people to drop everything else (including their real life duties), there is a disproportionate cost. We already paid that once this week. Let's not burn up our slim resources without very good reason.

Re: [Bug ?] Equiping Lazurite Robe with 1 int
ive thought about this myself and resticting the classes is a bad idea. the beauty of tmw is in its open endedness and making so every single player in a class dresses identical makes for a very boring game.Slimor wrote:i hope, it can be fixed
