    Also, wow. Lol, this is fantastic.

    Why does MS only do 1 damage in houses? I'm guessing just to avoid LoS house killing griefers or something?

    Pretty sure that is the reason, yes. But it works out great for everybody :)

    I personally recommend a bard to most new players as they are inexpensive to train, and very effective. Some other people recommend mining and often buy iron ingots at 7-8gp per to help out new players.

    MS does 1 damage during resist sessions beause the damage is spread through many targets. If someone MSes you directly inside a house you'll still take flamestrike comparable damage.

    Bards are a great way to start, and great moneymakers in this shard, just keep in mind provo is difficulty based here, and alter your training accordingly.

    Ahh ok. I thought the other post was saying MS only does 1 damage as long as you're in a house. Speaking of MS..does the LoS bug from UOSA work here? Kind of annoying to get killed in the middle of a tower...

    No. That was one of the first things the staff here fixed.

    This is incorrect; damage on MS is 1 HP across the board at the moment. The plan is to eventually correct this to the proper mechanics, but it is a stopgap solution to the LoS issues mentioned in this thread until that can be properly corrected.

    I just tested this in my home -- direct blast to a single char to the face of MS, 1 dmg.

    This is correct, all AoE spells (excluding earthquake) currently do 1 damage to a player while they are standing within a houseregion. Until we can rectify the issues with line of sight & targeting exploits that can be used to kill another player while they are standing in an otherwise normally safe location, this will stay in affect.

    Oh, thank you for clarifying.
