I regret to inform those that play on my server that due to recent money set back i have been forced to close down this server for the time being. I might look into hosting it from my server at home, but it will only be a 10 player at best. This really sucks but sometime life leaves us no choice.

We made a run through the legendary cows and chickens last night and found acouple of problems.

1. xp for cows is insane. Last cow gave 67,000 (nice bonus but way over kill)
2. xp for chickens sucks. The cows are the first "qwest" and there worth way more then chickens.
3. The keys to the cows and chickens is remaining in inventory even after you complete both "qwests" (run through the cows 6 or 7 times and your lv 40 in no time.



The cows seem to have a sweet spot for what level you take them at. Most i have gotten for 1 legendary cow (not boss) was 1,700 a piece. I think i was level 23, then after that they dropped a bit, but still dam good xp and the boss cow....dam  

Ok i have gotten a few complaints from some players, mostly about the underdark (horred already knows there is an issue there but i felt this info was alittle more helpful).

Quote from my website:

The money in the Newbie training area is still for shit. On average, you'll clear about 30 (or less) gold with one pass. If you get hurt (easy to do as skeletons have a DR), food for resting is upwards of 47 gold. Which leaves you 17 gold short. If you get hurt badly, you wind up not having enough gold to buy enough food to heal. XP is 5 per kill, except for skeletons at 7. At level 1, I've seen 1 firebeetle per pass. Sometimes, no fire beetle (and therefor, no beetle belly). With the beetle, you have enough buy food, but not enough to buy potions. Either way, yer screwed.

The Draix D'juiv'undus (I think that's how it's spelled) is for slightly more advanced characters, but you have to fight no less than 4 at a time, max XP is 9 per kill (I killed more than 100 halflings getting to Lvl 2) and gold is, again, for shit. Often, I would slog through 12 critters before getting 5 gold (5 gold being an average amount for one kill). I used a Rakshasa (very nice for work in the underdark, DR of +2/10) fighter and still couldn't venture out into the Underdark proper, anything that attacks with an ability that requires a Will saving throw almost automatically kills.

BOTH the Draix and the Newbie training area are in the Underdark Central. The Humanoid encampment is worse. Screwup would know more about that as he has been playing more there than I have.

A few things that don't seem to have been considered are:
1. Prices appear to generally be higher in the underdark, whether Underdark Central or the Humanoid encampment (Minotaurs spawn there).
2. Gold is much harder to come by.
3. There is precedent for creatures of nearly every race to follow the path of good. Kaz the Minotaur from the Legend of Huma, Drizzt the Drow from the Icingdale (?) series. Spawn point should be determined by choice or alignment.
4. PC's are constantly subjected to Crit Hits. NPC's and monsters usually only once.

Also:

There is a broken link  in the Illithid outpost. I can use the door going up to Miners misery but It does not work coming back down so I am trapped up there sometimes with no way out (the drow hate me too).

Horred brought this to my attention and i wanted to see if anyone else was having this problem. All my tables seem to be built ok, but i did notice that my cnr_recipes tables are empty and when i went into cnr_misc  table "CnrBoolBuildRecipeDatabase" value is set to 0. everything else has a value of 1. I will try setting this to 1 and prey it dosent mess something up

I saw some people asking for this in another post so i figured i would post what i have. This is all the tables that were created for this mod, there are some racial feats, and feats that are missing because i haven tmade those characters yet. I will post again when my database is more complete and i can give a full database, but this is a good start.
