A new way of xp loss at death...

On non-permadeath servers when one dies, one lose a lot of xp in various skills and then dies. I would suggest that one doesn't have to use the right skills to regain that lost xp and any xp gained after the death would be used to regain the lost xp until the debt has been paid. After that the xp is ...

Muds have solved these problems for years. Hardly any reason to invent new protocols (or even implementations for chat & distributed who for that matter since there is free software that is adaptable), except of course for for the crossfire unique things like transfering of characters. Some of the ...

Connecting the servers.

It would be nice if the different servers were more connected:
First of all chat-channels among the servers, so a newbie on an empty server could get some help from players on other servers without having to connect to some irc server.
Among that, have "buddy lists" and distributed who lists so one ...

Improving literacy?

I'm at level 25 in praying and want to learn a level 22 prayer, but can't read the spellbook. I guess my literacy level is too low (level 9). Is there some way to increase the literacy level besides reading scrolls and books? I already know most spells, so it takes forever to improve the literacy by ...

I've finally got out. I finally learned town portal and dimension door, which helped a lot to cross the mountain. :-) Thanks for all suggestions!

This is on a public server (games. something .pl). There are rarely any players on when I play, but I've now reached level 37, so if I just could find some potions of cold resistance or some rings with cold protection, I guess I could try to get out of there. I've managed to enslave the dire wolves ...

I don't think Brest is such a high level area though (not for a fireborn with 100% fire protection). I came to Brest as a level 14 character (with around level 10 on all spell paths), went through the nasty house and the castle as well as the first 7 gates of hell... I gained a few levels while ...

I visited an Inn when I got there before I discovered how hard it was to get back so a word of recall would not have helped me. :-(

Does it really have to be that hard to visit Brest? Can't there be dragon transports (or ships in the lake) to get around? How do the people of Brest get food when it ...

Getting out of Brest?

I've just started to play on the bigmap world. I've got a little fireborn and took a dragonride to Brest. Now I want to get back to my appartment in Scorn... Is it possible? :?
I can't pass the mountain passes with the dire wolves, since I can hardly enter the room before my -30 in cold resistance ...

I've not played crossfire in a while, but I used to first detect curse on the items, then sell all cursed items and after that identify the rest and sell them. That way I could get some money from the cursed items too. Not that I bothered to create pets to get the cursed items, but perhaps someone ...
