HAPPY HUNTING!

[zakoam]

Hey, questions my group has encountered a few problems that have stumped us.  Any help from you guys would be appreciated:

 

First: the "Drown" attack used by Elementals in the Ice Plane.  Is there any defense against that spell?  We have tried Water Breathing and of course Death Ward; no luck so far.  If there is nothing is it possible to request the crafting of a Drown-immunity ring or helmet?  Currently we are having 2-3 deaths per run, purely on the Natural 1 auto-fails because those Elementals pretty much spam that attack if you do not keep them all knocked down.

 

Tempests also seem to have an auto-kill spell/attack but we have not quite caught what that one is yet.  So advice or tips on that would be helpful too.

 

Secondly, where do you have to go to research epic spells?

 

On a final note, awesome job cleaning up the goblin area, to whoever did that work.  That place is awesome for getting your feet wet in the early levels, and just hard enough to be fun if you venture into the golem or mintaur caves.  So thanks on that.

Just updating that last question:

So we figured out that "Death Ward" actually does stop Drown, so in case anyone else has that problem, there ya go.

 

Still unanswered is the Epic Spell research problem.  Where do I have to go to be allowed to research and learn epic spells?  Anyone?

So, update on this epic spells situation.  So I find that there is a feat: "Epic Spellcasting", and that allowed me to research and learn an epic spell.  Spell worked fine and I used it once (it was Fleet of Foot, so very long duration).  When I log back in just a few hours later i now have no epic spells again, i have lost the epic seed and am still out the 12k XP and gobs of gold that it cost to research it.  So does anyone really know what is up with this system?

Just came across this after doing a nostalgic search to see if anyone had resurrected the old natfka server .. it appears the time was not wasted !  Could not get to the web site though.

[mmac]

OK so got the game installed - spent a whole $10 from gog to get it up and running however I can see the web site now I just can't download the hak file, so tried the smaller ones separately however neither of the big files downloads.  My old PC doesn't work anymore so any other place I can get the Hak ? such as dropbox or another file sharing service ? thanks

[zakoam]

Several of us have the hacks. I think they could be sent through gmail if split up. I'll send them to you if no one has a better idea. Normally they can be downloaded from the web page but I've noticed it down some lately. I suppose Mark has been working on an update or something.

[mmac]

I used a download manager and that did the trick of restarting the downloads when they stopped working - so i'm able to get in no problem now.

75.164.170.131:5121 is the current ip address again. 

 

zakoam- to answer your epic spell question. I tested this out a few months ago. It is still glitchy, as in it does not work every time. I have gotten a few of the epic spells to work. I have been in eveningstar each time. 

 

In the old days, a character had to go to a specific mountain top tower room to learn spells. I have been to this room and noticed no difference than being in eveningstar. Now having said that, if natfka eats/destroys your spell or seed, I will log on and give you another. after attempting about 50 times, I was able to get 3 of the epic spells to work: hellball, penguin, and pestilence. please email me so I can log on with you to make this happen.

Is there any way of getting other races other than Human to start at GDI ? as tried elf and cormanthir is way more deadly esp with those ruby constructs camping out the area where you spawn

[mmac]

Ok so managed to get out of cormanthir - easiest way was to start in Suzail first.  Also rediscovered the Elven backroads .. man there's so much here I'm rediscovering.  Thanks for putting this back up after so long !

[mmac]

Do we have a new IP for the server ? as not reachable at the moment.

soon this server jump issue will be fixed, promise. within the month. 

 

I successfully learned 3 epic spells: pestilence, hellball, and penguins, granted it was a pain. email me and we can set up a time to look at on natfka in case i need to regive you seeds or spells if the game eats them, yes this happens.

on of the far ships should... but perhaps it's not working. i will look at it this weekend to verify. 

[natfka]

Mark, Sounds like you are doing well with the server. Sounds very cool, I will have to log in sometime and check it out!

I'm sorted - once I figured out the Elven backroads again.  The only reason the Ruby constructs were there was likely someone kited them there getting away from them.

Hey there Johnny mentioned you had stopped by 

 

feel free to email or call me, but yah seems like everyone is having a good time

[NWN Mark]

hey  guys, if you are still having problems, email me at nwnnatfka@gmail.com

 

And yes, I can send you the HAK files directly. 

[Johnny Ringo]

I will talk to Mark about making changes in the elven lands that have the golems. I agree that they are probably a little high level for that area though. I am also going to change the golems in the goblin caves to something else that the Goblins would have in the "real" world. I am also going to talk to Mark about reducing the CR for the goblins in the forest as they are a little high. Dont worry, I wont drop them much and you should still get good XP up to level 7-10. I am also going to make changes to the monsters that petrify you to some other creatures that just kill you so you can respawn and get back to adventuring instead of having to wait for the server to reset...

Please post here any areas that you have spotted the petrification issues.

[Johnny Ringo]

The best way to get to GDI if your not human is from suzail for right now. This is especially true if you are a dwarf as it is a long road to run their short little legs all the way to GDI...

[mmac]

FYI bought a helm of Teleport tonight - just a warning for others does not seem to work - expect that is the same for the spell as well.  Shame really was hoping to for a quick go back home spell (aka hearthstone) - it was the same as the spell appears it's been disabled

[Danika Deepstone]

Could it be possible that my most beloved server is back? I dream of this server, none has ever come close to comparing and I had so many great friends on to play with. Its been 12 years hasn't it? My first Character was Warduke a very sucky paladin, but I have so many great memories from this server. Now if I can figure out how to get on and play! Good too see you all!

The server is indeed up once more although that said it's down right now  Not everything is exactly the same - I think some areas are disabled because they don't work at the moment, as well as some spells being altered in terms of duration - for example any of the summon spells beyond Dire tiger do not last long at all,  Makes it interesting to solo as a pure wizard.  

[mmac]

So has the IP address changed again ?

[Johnny Ringo]

I let Mark know and hopefully he can get the server back up after he gets home from work in a couple hours
