What are your thoughts about the current earthquake situation? How does it work right now for you? How did it use to work for you?

For exping purposes it's kind of useless, it's far better to get charm and do stronger solomobs instead of quaking a group of weaker mobs 6-10 times to kill them.

It's only use in PK now is for "revealing" hidden characters, and possibly if you get 3-4 mages to storequake four times each you might possibly kill something.

The only testing in "PK" I've done was when I accidently walked into a quake, not sure if the room was outdoors but lets say it was, and I had fairly low WIL and took about 10 hps damage... That would mean that indoors I would be able to survive all the quakes that some 5-6 mages could unleash. If they instead used the mana for stored fireballs I'd be dead in one round.

I have heard alot about this 'problem' with Earthquake. My thinking is that if the damage of quake is not up to pair and isn't deadly enough but yet at the sametime when changed how it used to be it does to much damage making mage with 4 stored quakes overpowered then i would say why not keep damage the same but change the effects of the spell to the person or persons in the room. Something like a bash...keeping that person unable to attack...making them have to recover from that would let time for the mage to escape or cast another spell

Comments?

I want old quake back, mage is booring now when quake is nerfed, Its harder now to go solo as a mage atleast when xping... going solo is more fun then beeing in group imho...

Retarded change. And I especially enjoy how they (management) have changed it like 5 times in a short time now. Seems they don't know what they want :)

They might aswell remove the spell, noone uses it anyway?

Whats the point using it when it does no damage imo?
And if management could informed us in news about changes atleast i could've saved myself some training off and repraccing :/

The had to change earthquake, cause they changed scrolluse, thus making quake more powerfull than was ever intended.

they changed quake because i killed donk(gothmog))
he got pissed and changet it :/ realy sucks

Well when level 50+ i quake is allowed to be powerful imo, or else there would be no point levelling...

--"Something like a bash...keeping that person unable to attack...making them have to recover from that would let time for the mage to escape or cast another spell"

Muwhahaha. So a highage mage with ~160 mana starts unleashing quakes in a room, 13 mana w/staff would make for 12. Even 40 damage a quake would take down most chars, with little/no chance of being bashed. Of course some would probably (eventually) get smart and just "sit and hit" to break concentration while another bashes.

-Bad Idea

why not make quake a higher lev spell so its only possible to store 2? this way its not lethal in pk, and its still usable for solo mage xp? or even flag players in pk so it wont hurt them, just xpxp :P

cannot store 12 quakes Ryalnos... and he wil be dead before he casts the 5th.

I tried suiciding in 1 room lockable with 1 troll and 1 orc with 4 stored quakes... i prespammed 4 quakes then cha spell quick and prespammed more couse i didnt know hps on either of em.. i got in 1 quake before i got bashed
and 1 after before i died... and that was 1 troll hitting me...

Forgot to say orc died after 4. quake...

I think MUME was more fun playing with old quake.
And i want it back :)

yeah? and me thjinks yuo are a faggoth

Do you think quake is still inferior for xping? It seems to work more or less OK with my mage but I have no experience with charm.

I love quakeexp

lorf earthkwaks hahaha XAKEPS
