Does anyone else remember if we started out with a few points already in our primary weapon skill? My memory is telling me that they were all zero and we had to use our starting training points to prime them before heading out for our first kill.

I was going to mention this too, although i have no evidence or proof that weapon skills were 0

One of the things I'd like to find is dates around the Stein of Moggoks implementation/cosmetic changes. (I wouldn't be surprised if it was added after launch but have nothing to corroborate that claim)

I have no evidence to prove it, or dates when it changed but my memory is

1. One day someone says "hey there is some +10 item for casters"
2. Like 24 hours later I see all tehse darkelves with lanterns

I got my lantern too, then shortly after it changed from a lanteren graphic to a stein graphic.

I would love to find any info on that cosmetic graphic swap, because I would love for that stein to appear as a lantern for however long that was.

One thing I want to ad is, lanterns are cool and classic and useless, so seeing players holding them would be an added bonus to this classic anomaly.

But like I said, its all in my head so its useless 8( Does anyone else remember, seen any info on this one while hunting?

Not sure that equates to "proof" but they did ding level 2 and spend 10 skill points, 5 of which are in 1 hand blunt. /shrug

That link has a post by Tim Smith that says to put all 5 training points into whatever weapon type you are using. This isn't possible at level one, you can only get to 6 if you start with 5. I think you're onto something.

It was called glowing stein, it was the stein of oggok quest prior to being changed less than 5 months in.

I guess for completeness and so it doesn't get lost I'll put this here too. Hum/Bar/Eru should start with *A Worn Candle, a weak light source.

Evidence it was in at launch.

Yep I remember the candle and weak as it was it served my human mage well until he got a firebeetle eye/wisp spell. Night time especially when raining was no joke then.

Skills started at 0. They gave +5 to starting skill cos people would put all their points into casting. Unfortunately most your dps at level 1 is melee. This meant some races would be unable to solo whites at level 1 until after several deaths worth of skill ups (i'm thinking of erudites with their 70 dex/agi taking lots of hits and gaining no skill ups and only hitting for min damage with their 70 str).

Anyone remember equipment dropped by animations (i.e evil eye pets) being usable by PCs. I'm sure these items didn't start as race: none. Maybe shadowed weapons too.

I'm sorry if this has been addressed elsewhere. I remember farming plat from the dwarf merchants at the dock in butcherblock. Later on they were nerfed so I'm wondering if they will drop plat initially on green?

Oh my god yes wow I feel this one too, don't remember it much but feel it. They were no rent right? I think that was my introduction to the concept of no rent?

I doubt they were called shadowed, I assume/thinkall the lore around shadowed men was introduced with Sol Ro. But again, these are like, if I was accessing my memory its like I have 1 frame of memory left of this stuff stored in my video files of this subject lol

My stein on live was also a 1hb primary only. Was not retroactively changed.
