Two errors there. You definitely don't get better movement speed on member items - that's a bonus that's on some ranger and all mage gear, even as low as greys. And I'm pretty sure you don't get better base stats on items, except possibly weapon damage. I haven't done an exhaustive test, but when I compare blue and yellow items that are the same except for an extra prefix or suffix, the base stat bonuses are the same. It also gives you stackable potions which heal 50% instead of 40%. And you can be smug on the forums and tell everyone who doesn't pay that they must not love DR. ![]() -------------------- Swordgleam - Level 40-something Arcane Fighter Vanishing into the wilderness from May 25 to late August. |

You can only edit for about five minutes after you first post something. Probably to keep people in the middle of flamewars from going back and changing what they said. -------------------- Swordgleam - Level 40-something Arcane Fighter Vanishing into the wilderness from May 25 to late August. |

Yellow gear is typically available to use a a lower level than blue gear with the identical base stats. I might use a yellow crossbow at level 20, for example, then find a blue with identical speed and damage at level 25. |

I haven't noticed the base stat difference at higher levels, though. Maybe I haven't been paying attention to the weapon level closely enough. Members also get first priority for logging on to servers, not that that has been a problem for anyone yet. -------------------- Swordgleam - Level 40-something Arcane Fighter Vanishing into the wilderness from May 25 to late August. |

Purple items do give you +% movement speed. I have boots that have a base of -3% and then have a modifier of +1% on them. Allows you to use heavier armor without such a hit to the movement speed. -------------------- JoeB - Level 100 - Back to a Fighter where he belongs SirOldBottom - Level 42 - Shadow Merc Mearlin - Level 29 - Mage Dungeon Runners Map Build 0.95 |

Huh. I don't remember having seen that before. Do you know if it was added recently? -------------------- Swordgleam - Level 40-something Arcane Fighter Vanishing into the wilderness from May 25 to late August. |

Skill Books = Books with free a skill in them if you meet the level requirement. |

I am not sure how recently. I would assume with the 0.51 or 0.53 patch but I am not sure. -------------------- JoeB - Level 100 - Back to a Fighter where he belongs SirOldBottom - Level 42 - Shadow Merc Mearlin - Level 29 - Mage Dungeon Runners Map Build 0.95 |

The only skill book I ever found with a skill that I didn't already know, dropped the day after the patch came out that made skill books members-only. I was so annoyed. ![]() -------------------- Swordgleam - Level 40-something Arcane Fighter Vanishing into the wilderness from May 25 to late August. |

All these King Coins you get in the game will actually be worth something. You will be able to trade them for Member only Items. Especially at Sam's Dungeon Wholesale. He randomly appears on certain levels of dungeons and gives out purple items for King Coins. |

Quote: It's cool too if you ar not a member. You can sell those items with a high price ! But I have just one question. If I have membership for one month and then I don't want to pay for membership nexty month (it's stupid but there are still stupid people on earth see our french president... sorry...)So if I had membership items on me, do I lose them ? can I keep them on me ? Does I have to sell them because I can't use them anymore ? Okay it's hard to explain with my very bad english but, hey, I do what i can ![]() -------------------- Elenah, Toned Rookie Brutish Barbarian, Lvl 17 |

When you log in after your membership runs out you will still have the armor slotted but it will be inactive. Your bank will still be there if you reactivate your membership. I would reccomend putting your gear in the bank the day before your membership runs out, that way you dont have to hold it in inventory. Or sell it for cash. -------------------- JoeB - Level 100 - Back to a Fighter where he belongs SirOldBottom - Level 42 - Shadow Merc Mearlin - Level 29 - Mage Dungeon Runners Map Build 0.95 |

Sooo, once you have your membership can you not create another member character? I have a low level ranger atm with a membership, and unless I was reading it wrong in order to create a second character you have to create a new account, so I did that. However when I created a fighter build he clearly didn't have member status. Does anyone knowif there are plans to allow multiple member characters from a single membership? -------------------- Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. |

Multiple characters per account is on the way. July was the last date I heard and 3 characters per account should be available. -------------------- JoeB - Level 100 - Back to a Fighter where he belongs SirOldBottom - Level 42 - Shadow Merc Mearlin - Level 29 - Mage Dungeon Runners Map Build 0.95 |

Not to beat a dead horse here but I'd like to be clear. If I create another character, with a new account I would, in fact, have to pay another $5 per month in order for that character to become a member? Because that seems a bit, y'know...not as cool, as being able to say "Hey I'm <account holder>, this character needs to be 'memberized' put it on my tab." -------------------- Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. |

Just wait till july and you can make a few new characters on your current member account then. supposedly. But yes all new accounts are non-member accounts. Even if you have 1 or more member account. Some people do pay for more than 1. |
