Leila has no LTs to deal with the ensuing party wipes so we'll never be seeing that, anyway ;)

The Nightmare Temple is certainly aptly named. I'd still like recalls allowed post big baddie in those areas; I don't think I've ever heard someone say they wished those areas were even harder or took up even more time.

It might not bring people back, but can we change how buying goods works? Can it use up all our copper first, then silver and so on?
I have having 2 obsidian 20 plat 235 gold and 422 silver and then I buy something for 1.5 obsidian and it uses my obsidian first. Very inconvenient but low priority. If it’s a quick code change, it would be awesome.

There are secret ways to get out as part of the mechanics of the Nightmare Temple. Then there are secret recall points as well. Leila was always part of the ev0l crew so she never got to see.

gonna suggest crafting for the 2343x time.

being able to craft perfectly usable but not godlike weapons of your choice would be really nice.

alchemy would be fun af and could maybe be an added thing to scouts

Hell yeah. I'm a garbage programmer but where there's a will there's a way. Let's make it happen.

Remove the stance-reset for going prone & remove command-lag while prone.

I understand why these things exist for PvP, but they are just a pain in PvE - and that's all that's happening in-game these days.

Stance reset makes sense.
Can you speak more on how command lag works while prone?
Would it be better if there was a “you can’t do that, you’re prone” whenever you’re knocked prone? If your commands are stacked, it will pretty much clear them out quickly so you can do something new when you stand?

Basically if I am stacking magic missile while fighting an npc (say 12 times), then get knocked prone and an enemy-PC player walks in to catch me by surprise while I'm still prone, I want to flee or quaff recall. But there's a couple seconds of lag for each of those 12 magic missile commands. By the time I regain my footing, I've probably gotten through 3-4 "you need to regain your footing" responses - I still need to work through the remaining 8-9 magic missile spells before I can do anything else.

In the old days, you get bashed and whatever is stacked clears out in one round.
