More updates to the Creature XP table. Thanks to everyone who is continuing to send in updated values (still more to be added to the site). I'd like to give a special mention for the extraordinary efforts of Rend the monster-value zerker who says, "I think I'm enjoying this way too much...it's like Pokemon..gotta catch em all!" :-)

I've finally started working on a section I've wanted to do since the earliest days of the site: The Monarchies of Dereth! The first entry is in progress and should be up on the site by the end of the weekend. I'm hoping to post about one a week, but I'm not yet sure how realistic that will be. If you'd like to show off your fabulous allegiance, you can visit this page for instructions on the type of information I'd like to feature.

May 29, 2002
More updated xp values added to the list of Creature Experience. Thanks to the folks sending them in! That's it! I had planned a more substantial update, but I was too busy fighting Bronze Statues looking for my little bits and pieces. Sadly, however, the drop rate appears to be 1 in a gajillion-billion (just kidding).

May 28, 2002
The renovation to the Pets section is currently in progress (more pics coming soon). Now you have a choice to see the stats on a single page, or by creature type. And due to popular request, I've also begun compiling a list of Creature Experience. In addition to the experience awarded, this list also contains the Magic Defense number and best attack types. Recent xp updates from the latest patch will be indicated in yellow. If you'd like to help fill the list out, please send me an email with any information I'm missing!

The Hollow Weapons quest has also been updated with information on Deadly Hollow Weapons from the Betrayal patch.

Various pages in the Sports section updated with new weapons from the latest patch.

I've also started plowing through some of the back-logged email and have made numerous miscellaneous additions on various pages throughout the site. Credits listed on the Stuff I'd Like page. Thanks to all!

May 27, 2002
The Isparian Arms (Atlan Upgrade)  quest notes are now a completed write-up. Special thanks to Urgluf for help with body recovery! More stats added to the Isparian Arms Weapons Stats page. Special thanks to Evi Denzstelle for checking the full gamut of Good Spear stats before relinquishing the weapon to a lucky Town Crier!

Beasties page in the Pets section updated with some of the creatures from the past few months. Page is extremely large and will be slow to load. I'll be updating the section with separate pages per creature, but it's not quite finished. More coming soon! :-)

May 25, 2002
Interior Decorating page updated with the new items from the Hidden Vein patch. Notes from the Horn of Vigilance quest made into a real write-up. Other misc. additions. Thanks also to the recent contributors to the Tip Jar!

May 24, 2002
Even more stats added to the Isparian Arms Weapons Stats page from the Isparian Arms quest (soon to be copied onto websites near you!! ;-). Thanks to Lion-heart, among others, for sacrificing a Modifying Tool so we could see more of the stoned stats. I'm still missing quite a few -- especially some of the lower level weapons. If you have ones I'm missing, please send me an email.

May 23, 2002
Isparian Arms Weapons Stats page from the Isparian Arms quest has been updated with some of the new  weapons and wands now available after the hotfix. (All elemental stats listed are with Major Atlan Stones.) Thanks to everyone who sent pics and stats in. If you have ones I'm missing, please send me an email.

A tip for taking screenshots: if the icon is not showing in the examine window, hit your "e" key for a 2nd time and it usually appears. Full stats also preferred. Thanks!

May 21, 2002
A few more updated xp values added to the Mnemosynes quest page. More miscellaneous additions to the Hidden Vein patch page and various other pages. A new improved Stonehold shortcut added to the Shortcuts page.

May 19, 2002
A few corrections to the Settlement Portals page (removed some duplicate portals and added a few missing ones). Thanks to Thorwolf the Carver of TD. More notes added to the Bronze Statues, Isparian Arms and Nuhmudira's Boon quest pages to help you out until I can get full write-ups done. Updated the xp value for Unlocked large Mnemosynes, thanks to Cocoa Cox of LC. If you have any of the other updated xp values, please send me an email! Again, more miscellaneous additions to the Hidden Vein patch page.

May 18, 2002
Settlement Portals updated with the new additions from the Hidden Vein patch. Callous Heart updated with stats of all three Bloodstone Jewels (thanks to Eve Lord of MT). More miscellaneous additions to the Hidden Vein patch page.

May 17, 2002
Martine goes on a killing spree! Thanks to Savina of TD for this pic and to Gheres Reficul for this pic!!

Martine's head swivels side to side at impossible angles as he surveys the area about him.
Martine begins laughing, a low raspy giggle, the laughter grows to a cackle and suddenly ceases.
Martine becomes very still.

May 17, 2002
More updates to the Hidden Vein patch page including additional updated creature xp. Many items added to the Isparian Arms quest (thanks to Danier of TD among others). I've also started compiling the stats for the new Isparian weapons. You can find them here! As you can see, there are still many holes. If you have a new weapon, I'd love it if you could send me a screenshot! I'd also love more gorget pics from the Nuhmurdian's Boon quest if you've got one handy (to be updated). Thanks again for all the info being sent. I still have much more to get up on the site. As always, coming soon! ;-)

May 16, 2002
Many updates to the Hidden Vein patch page and the various quests pages (Nuhmudira's Boon, Bronze Statues, Isparian Arms, Horn of Vigilance, Callous Heart). Commemorative Statues, new quests, new boss monsters, increased creature xp, new spell tab, not to mention a thinga-ma-bob! All this plus the ability to appraise hooked items! I think this just might be the best patch ever! I can't wait to get my Ursuin Rug!

As always, thanks for the overwhelming number of contributions to the patch page. Still much more to come!

May 15, 2002
I'm having a little busier day at work than I expected, but I've updated the Hidden Vein event information with the Build Notes, Letter to the Players, etc. More on the patch page coming soon!

May 15, 2002
I have returned to full health just in time for patch day! Yay! Just a reminder if you're sending screenshots for the patch page, please use the jackcat@spacestar.net email address!

If you have housing with double spawning hooks or chests, make sure you remove your items before the update! See the State of the Code for details.

May 13, 2002
I've been a little slow on updates recently due to a busy week at work and being a little under the weather. More coming soon!

May 10, 2002

All good things must come to an end. Ned Cleversun, my wonderful vassal, has power-leveled himself off the front page. Congratulations on reaching Level 81! I want to thank all of you for sharing our celebration. As you know, without Ned, this site wouldn't even exist! If you missed out of the fun, you can still visit All Ned Cleversun, All the Time in the Where Are They Now Section. I've also compiled a sampling of the many many letters I received for your enjoyment. You can find them here.
