December 18, 2000 - Location of new dye plants

Dear Maggie,

I was wondering if you had any confirmed information of the location of the new dye plants. I have found the white plants in both the northern and southern mountains, the blue along the beaches, but I cannot find the greens. I was told they are on the newest islands but I ran around like crazy for several hours and didn't find even one. Just hoping to get a confirmation that is where they are supposed to be (and maybe narrow it down a little).

Keep up the great work!!

Hi StarFyre -

Noone seems to know! And the ones who do, aren't telling! ;-) I've heard rumors that they are on the lower level Vesayen Isles, but don't have confirmation. Another rumor I heard was that you can find them in the mountains near Lin. Yet another, in the woods to the west of Bandit Castle. Good luck!

December 18, 2000 - Monster update

Undeads have been improved. I don't have all the stats but I do know ... Liches are now level 30, Undeads are level 15, and Lich Lords are now 55. I'm sure the other undeads have changed too, but I have not checked out the High Undeads. Hope this was helpful.

Hi Cordare -

Thanks for the info. I'll have to update my Beasties page as soon as I get the new stats. I appreciate you passing the info on to me!

Thanks for the fletching info. Now I can drop those darn knives. I thought they had some great purpose. Bah!

By the way, the site rules.

Hi Strangelove the Doc -

Glad you like the site! And don't give up on those Whittling Knives so quickly! They *do* have a great purpose. You can carve pumpkins with them!! ;-)

December 18, 2000- New Spines and SoCS

Hi.
I was reading your letters page and I had a strange thought. Since the Silifi of Crimson Stars can be made with various spines to produce an axe with various stats, Have you heard of anyone making it with the new Island Dillo Spine? I was wondering if it is possible and if it would make an even better axe.

By the way, Great site. I only wish it had a site index to make finding things a bit easier.

Hi Sinjin Smythe -

I know that last month several people tried, but it was not possible to use an Island Spine with the SoCS. This month the build notes stated the following:

"Kayna bint Isawas now talks a bit about the speed vs. damage choice in SoCS armoredillo spines."

Although I haven't made it over there yet to see what she says differently, I haven't heard anyone mention that the 'Dillo spine was added as a choice. I assume the answer is still no.

Thanks for the compliment on the site. I'll consider the index idea. I've had lots of people ask for the feature, but as always, it's a matter of time constraints. If only I didn't have this pesky job! ;-)
