Statue of Momo

I don't know if the model DB has this, but I'd like to see a statue of a dead gnome mage stating: "Here lies Momo, Bringer of Frost, Master of Threat. Beloved water-spender and biscuit-vendor"

dibs on Thunderstrike I discussed with the raid and we all agreed that you will be the first player on the realm that gets Thunderstrike as it drops.

Re: [Feature] List of Completed Quests

This could be done via a website that accesses the server data.
Adding ingame APIs is very unlikely to be possible, unless were talking about a "dot" command.

Re: patch?

I can't imagine there being client side patches.
Currently patches to the server are rolled out via a server restart (and it helps to delete your WDB folder before logging in)

Re: Dynamic Raid Scaling

I have some feedback from testing MC for a few weeks now. Please keep in mind that this is the first private server I played ever, so all memory stems back from retail vanilla (which is quite some time ago). My feedback is based on raids with between 16 and 22 people, so keep that in mind. Trash Tra...

Re: Dynamic Raid Scaling

Can you help me out what you mean by "downsized"?
Do you mean
a) less loot-drops per boss
b) lower stats on the gear
c) both a) and b)
d) something else I didn't think of

Re: Ideas for item drops in the new dungeon

Effect: Increases damage done by Arcane spells and effects by up to 50% of your total mana.
I think I'm misunderstanding what you originally meant so I just want to clarify this for me.
As a mage I have 4k mana.
So at full mana arcane explosion adds up to 4000 damage?

Re: Portable Black Hole API error IsInventoryItemLocked()

from a quick glimpse this looks like "TurtleHead", did I get that right?

Since it's PHP (which is my goto language) yes, that is something I could help with.
I'd try to get the search faster, though, since I know my way around Elasticsearch.

My Bag Order is:

Re: Portable Black Hole API error IsInventoryItemLocked()

I wonder whether IsInventoryItemLocked has an upper bound so it can only return integers between 1 and 112 (28 Slots bags like Soulbags, Miningbags etc.)

With the 4 PBHs I get above that number.

Portable Black Hole API error IsInventoryItemLocked()

It seems that the API call

Code: Select all

IsInventoryItemLocked()
fails on high bag slot ids.

I have 4 PBH on me and if I sort Trinkets to the bottom bag, GearMenu throws an LUA error.

Is this something that's purely client side or something that can be fixed on the server side of things?

a) a level difference: even two or three levels can drop your damage against mobs significantly. You should aim to kill mobs of your level and up to two levels below.

Respawn times though I'm quite sure are not working properly. Mobs with loot on them respawn in the same amount of time as looted ones and that was never a thing in retail.

Caster DPS seems a bit off

I'm new to the server and started out questing in the NE starting zone. I noticed that caster mob DPS seems a bit off the charts. While I do remember Vanilla being hard, dying off a lvl6 caster as a level 8 char with a foodbuff seems pretty odd to me. I noticed this with Gnarlpine Mystics and Shadow...
