    Archery Mechanics

    I found this on a MO guide: Client-Side Hit Detection Because Mortal Online uses client-side hit detection, this means that if the shot on your screen would hit the target, then it does! This may seem obvious, but it has some important effects on gameplay. The most important one is that as...

    How does armor actually work?

    Very odd. I see frequent discussions on the best types or armor, but that judgement just isn't possible without an understanding of the mechanics (and I'm not talking about seeing the formulae, just a general understanding that a medieval armorer might have). Here's an example with some made up...

    How does armor actually work?

    Percentage reduction was what I'd always assumed, but I was told by several people I was wrong and that it was an absolute reduction of damage points.

    How does armor actually work?

    This seems like a newb question, but I'd like to get a definite answer because it has always confused me. I've asked several times what armor defence values mean, and I've always been told they are the number of points deducted from incoming damage. This cheap starter armor, for example, has...

    Steam Charts tracking.

    Putting on my well-worn cynical hat, I don't think SV have fixed any capacity issues at all. What's happening as far as I can see is what a lot of us predicted right from the start. The population is declining until it reaches the level that Myrland can support - 2,000 to 3,000 concurrent.

    Has anyone ever had their house reimbursed from vanishing?

    They need proper logging that is visible to the GMs and to the players - and if you are offline, then you see the log report when you are next online. > Your house lost upkeep and was destroyed > Your house was destroyed by hostile players If the house disappears with no reason you then know...

    PSA don't keep valuable items in your house

    I'd be interested to know if that means "we keep logs of player houses, but we can't find yours" or "we don't keep logs of player houses".

    Need non combat mounts

    I'll agree with you on this ... there was a load of stuff in MO1 that worked (or could have been made to work) that has gone missing in MO2. I was originally hoping MO2 would be a feature rich progression from MO1, and what we seem to got in many ways is just MO1 Light. I really hope they can...

    Need non combat mounts

    I agree with a lot of what you posted. The bit I've quoted (above) is actually the whole point of my suggestion. If you want to specialise in mounted combat for PVP, you have to spend the extra 100 points. If you just want your mount for transport and haulage, you save the points, and in a fight...

    Book only training to 38

    Far be it from me to say your ticket will be pointless, but I've been reporting the same bug since MO1 about ten years ago...

    Book only training to 38

    I would guess that on average about half the books I read stop before they should. It's (another) of the age old problems that have never been addressed. Start by checking that nothing is blocking it - I've had a lot of limiting skills that have managed to set themselves to "lock" even when I...

    Need non combat mounts

    I think there is a lot of sense in this. People complain that MO has become "Mounted Online", but that is largely a result of the current situation. It goes like this... > I want to be a mage (or archer) > The map is so big I need a horse to get around > I've now spent points on magic (or...

    Keybinds Reverting

    Is it only your hotbars that are affected, or does it reset all your custom keybinds to default?

    Swift Riding

    From the reports and discussion, it is half broken. It seems to reduce the stamina drain, so you can ride fast for longer, but it doesn't actually increase the speed, so either the skill is broken or the description is wrong.
