I have 88% of that break-away level finished, and it can be entered now. Test it out for me, and tell me what you think of it. (Its the enterance where the Rebel Drow come from).

Let me know! (PS Not ALL encounters are 'on' yet, so just be aware of that ;) )

T-D-C 05-24-2004 05:30 PM

Can't wait Z. I have to rebuild all my characters though, My PC crashed and i lost them all ARGH!

So as soon as my monk is back up and running I will be there!

Went through the lake area up to rock pile that said area not yet completed killed everything then headed back to door way and went past door way out to the right hand side of door way to fight last two drow warriors and drow prest, Then wierd thing happened see below:

yellow script showed up after killing the last drow priest and said:

Script x2_s1_GWspikes,OlD: 8000b4a3,tag:
Shadow Scorpion 01,ERROR Divide by zero
Script x2_s1_GWspikes,OlD: 8000b4a8,tag:
Shadow Scorpion 01,ERROR Divide by zero
Script x2_s1_GWspikes,OlD: 8000b49e,tag:
Shadow Scorpion 01,ERROR Divide by zero

That was all, I never saw or fought any scorpion & never saw any GW spikes what ever they are?

Oh Yeah when I clicked on the portal at the drow camp at the side just before the bolders that block the way to the unfinished area it vanished.
The Portal that is? that was wierd.

also I think the Drow should be a little more powerfull, they did kill me 31 times and I had to respone but still I was only one person and I killed everything in about 20 minutes.

O.K. thats it for the lake of shadows Hope it helps you out.

oh yeah! IT needs alot more shadow slime things or what ever those gray puddles were.

I really liked the stun trap a couple drow archers placed in range could have really done some damage to me!

catch you later Dude TCB :D

Ziroc 05-25-2004 10:30 AM

That damn Shadow scopion isn't even IN that level. ARRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! I am going to delete that &$^#^ing shadow thing NOW! Sick of seeing errors, and NOW, on levels the bugger isn't even ON!!! :D (rant off)

I'm going to look into this 01,ERROR Divide by zero bug on the Bioware forums.. maybe I can fix it, or find out WHERE its coming from..

Harkoliar 05-25-2004 10:53 AM

ill check it out soon sometime this weekend... im kinda busy at the moment.. market presentations school report.. groan

Ziroc 05-25-2004 11:21 AM

AHAH! I found the "01,ERROR Divide by zero" bug. It was in the mods properties where you add global scripts. Remember I was trying to get those CEP traps to work? And they never did BTW, they were broken. Anyway, I removed those unneeded scripts and wa-la. Errors gone.

I am playtesting the new level for full release tonight, so the mod will be down for a few hours today. I have also TOTALLY remade the monsters on the Void plane, and will be adding more today too. check it out too!

TheCrimsomBlade 05-25-2004 03:28 PM

I'm home now at 3:15 P.M 'till 4:15 for my break so, If the server is on I'll check it out otherwise it will be after 7:00 tonight when I'm off for the day. TCB :D

looks like your still working on EfU, It's 3:26 and the server isn't on line so I'll play check the level tonight and then leave you some more feed back.
TCB was here [img]smile.gif[/img]

Holy "S" Lake of the Shadow is a Butt Kicker. I took in a level 40 Epic Monk and got my tail wooped Bad. The drow wouldn't take any damage from him and he was a half Orc. Ziroc you were there and was helping me out, you even offered to make me god like to test the area I should have said OK.HA!HA!HA!
Ziroc DON'T change anything this is going to be great for team play.
I changed Characters and returned with my level 40 fighter and at least he could kill the Drow, there were just to many for my one warrior but everybody is going to love it!!
Your right Ziroc! This is a tough area and worthy of What should be expected on all of LVL 13. No more easy areas from now on that was levels 1-12 But Level 13 is a different story and when you get past the door to the Lake of Shadows and you kill the first few drow by the lake you think, This area isn't that hard. So you turn and head to the west only to find you have just become "S" and have hit the fan!! I'm going to build a better character and try again later to see if I do any better.

ZIROC don't make anything any easier!!!!! It's Great just the way you have it! YEAH!!! :D

Harkoliar 05-26-2004 05:17 AM

i cant wait :D .

Ziroc 05-26-2004 11:14 PM

Anyone else?? Where is everyone? [img]smile.gif[/img]

T-D-C 05-27-2004 09:26 PM

Sorry Z im still getting my PC up and running again after the crash. Then I have to recreate my characters. I should have a look this weekend.

Teri-sha Illistyn 05-27-2004 09:56 PM

I will pop in here soon... been a hell of a month for me, but I scored a 4 day weekend!!! WOOHOO! There will definetly be some undermountain play!!

Harkoliar 06-01-2004 11:56 AM

im going to try and play this thursday Aussie time zone. I have a bit busy lately, but from what you guys are saying, im going to enjoy this ;) . time to bring out my dwarven defender.

Parmenion 06-04-2004 09:50 AM

I tried running through here, my paladin/champion got torn to bits down there. Ouchie.

Ehrys 06-04-2004 03:16 PM

Man... the elite drow assassins in the Lake of Shadows are brutal! Calling all parties... need a lot of fighters in there to act as meat shields while the rest of us sneak past them...

Brutally fun.

T-D-C 06-05-2004 02:48 AM

Grumish is comming. as a 40 level barbarian he has plenty of meat to shield the wizards and rogues.

Harkoliar 06-05-2004 12:25 PM

i took a little peek. damn :D . even my dwarven defender was helpless in that area. i need a team here. those drows.. its a nice touch you added divine damage Z. that was one of my char's weak points. so he got slaughtered.

TheCrimsomBlade 06-05-2004 03:38 PM

Two Uber Knights were in the lake area and ran past me. I stood back just far enough to watch them get slaughtered again and again. Finally one said "This is my best PC he's lvl 44 epic black Guard and I can't believe this server, I beat every area in here and my invincable PC is getting killed every 10 seconds. lets screw this place and go to McKenna's Arena and do the PvP thing" Then his friend said "OK! I hate this place now. when they are killing My Level 30 assassan/LvL 40 fighter Like I'm only A lvl 20 Cleric this place is rigged and IT SUCKS!!" Then poof poof they were gone. I started saying Ziroc was that you? are you there? Hay Ziroc did you do this or what happened? that was total Great! Hello Are you there but, nobody answered. I wish everyone could have been sitting in the bleachers watching with me cheering on the drow to Kick the Uber punks butts.

Score: Lake of shadows vs the Uber Punks

Lake of shadows --- 2 [img]graemlins/finger.gif[/img]

The Uber Punks ---- 0 [img]graemlins/tombstone.gif[/img]

Uber Punks Vanish into thin air in discust and humiliation never to be seen again. [img]graemlins/uhoh1.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/uhoh2.gif[/img]

And The croud goes wild [img]graemlins/thewave.gif[/img]

HAHAHAH! Awe, the poor babies... Drow put a hurting on them egos? :D :D GOOD! [img]smile.gif[/img]

I -do- need to lower the spawn encounters just a bit, it shouldn't be THAT deadly. It's gotta be to where one person can get through it. It'll still be MEGA hard, but hey, thats Undermountain.

I have a new level called "Muiral's Gauntlet" coming soon. it's a maze of sorts and loaded with traps. This level will be inserted somewhere between level 4 and 9. Anyone that read the book "Escape from Undermountain" knows what it's about. ;)

Also, the MAIN story/quest I've been working on will envolve 'The 7 lost apprentices of Halaster". I won't say any more. ;)

I beat The Lake Area With A Paladin Lvl 36 I got the Book to prove it!

Name : Lord Crimson of Ahm
Human Paladin Lawful(85) Good(85)
Str.-------16
Dex-------12
Con-------14
Int.-------10
Wis-------15
Cha-------21

AC-33
HP = 437/437
main weapon Bastard Sword +5

I died and reserected almost 80 times but I killed everything but those Big Mouth Big Eye things on the treasure Island. In fact I didn't do any damage to them at all but they were so slow I just kept running around the Island steeling stuff from the three crates until I had everything.

How Many super Drow did you put in that area it took me two hours non stop fighting and reserecting to clear them all out and whats up with the Vege People one hit and their dead.

Harkoliar 06-06-2004 03:12 AM

From what I remember Muragh the Skull, Beckla The Wizard apprentis, Corin the Nobel man, and Artek the Knife skirted around Muiral's Gauntlet because, every adventurer that had ever had to try to pass threw it never made it out alive.
This is proof that Halaster has taken control of Ziroc. If your Gauntlet is half as difficult as the Mad Apprentice Muiral made then we are in for a very difficult fight or should I say Very difficult fights!! Then with the new traps the CEP has given you to play with, who knows what's in store for us!

Oh and don't forget only 6 apprentices stayed lost. Jhesiyra Kestellharp left the Undermountain and became the Magister of the now Ancient kingdom of Myth Drannor. That only leaves 6 crazy Thousand year old Wizards apprentices in search of Halaster and leaving Magic Traps and assorted Monsters behind to impress their old master in the hope he would reward them with great power.

By the time you finish Undermountain Bioware should be knocking on your door wanting to hire you, or at least pay you off for helping to keep them in busness.

Ziroc 06-06-2004 10:52 PM

Awe man, ya ruined it! [img]smile.gif[/img] Only you and I know about Jhesiyra! ;) The players will have to figure out that she left. But she may have left something behind! Muhahaha

And the 'Metal Mage' has some Ferragans.... that should be cool, because CEP has some metal monsters!!!
