Re: Looking for MUD (heavy on skills) plus need advice.

Hi there!

I guess you should have a look at Arctic MUD, it seems to be a 100% fit (unless you forgot to mention some additional important requirements):


- Dragonlance here. No sci-fi, no neutron blasters.

- Lots of skills and spells; every class (there is a dozen of them) has their own unique set of available techniques. Choosing which skill or spell to use often means the difference between the glorious victory and the miserable defeat.

- We do have skill and spell based crafting, no doubt about that. Most of the crafting is done by magic users - they gather spell components and use them to scribe scrolls and brew potions; they enchant weapons or imbue them with powerful spirits. On top of that, many of our quests are based on crafting theme.

- Very little RP - mostly when someone is bored or is waiting for something. Perhaps, the best place for RP in Arctic is our forums. While in game, find a better use for your time - draw your sword and slash the monsters or the fellow players. PvP is unrestricted in Arctic.

- We got a devoted playerbase; the newbies who recently joined Arctic and the veterans playing for 15+ years group together for some great adventures. There are up to 50 players on-line at peak time and ~10 at quite hours. At the beginning of the wipe I saw 100+ players several times.


There is much more about Arctic MUD - visit us and see everything yourself. After all, there is nothing to lose - Arctic is a completely free game.

See you in the world of Krynn, and may you die young!
