Hello there. I think you should know of a help file, few ever took notice to.

<help mummy>
<help ogre>
<help wyvern>

from those 3, you can get the links to the rest of the creatures at the buttom of the screen. First of all, the help gives a very well written description of how one should roleplay one caste or another.

Second of all, there are point form traits of that race. Which abilities halfpriced/free, Vulnurabilities/Resistances, penalties/bonuses. Read up

By the way, I would like some of your opinions on those traits. Some of them do not seem to be right for specific races. Like Scarab's penalty to agility and energy. They're annoying, small, and fragile...so lack of strength and authority I understand. But the ever buzzing, ever darting back and forth bug to be slow and lacking energy ??

I used similar links awhile ago, and woodz called it hacking. So I immediately backed off and shut my mouth about it.

This is really basic stuff though...

Apologies to World's Apart if they don't like this. I wouldn't do anything to compromise the game...

Just for clarification. We are not upset if you look at the pictures or peruse them. We created them for your enjoyment. :D

And when I was referring to 'hacking,' I was using it in a loose context. I believe someone had asked about the statistics that were associated with a particular high level tier monster that no one had even attained in beta yet. I was just indicating that the way players were viewing some of the higher level, tiered, wandering monsters...we had never intended for the pictures or stats to be viewed that way, and therefore the information that was seen was incorrect and misleading.

Therefore, any information (like statistics of monsters) you acquire without using the links in the browser that we provide for character generation, should be considered 'unofficial,' and we will decline to answer questions about it. I hope that clears up some misunderstandings and confusion here.

Thank you.

The easiest and simplest solution would just be to put them in the help files, right along with the race information. I can't think of any good reason not to do that.

None of the links work. Can someone copy/paste the pictures or something on a webpage? I don't want the stats, just the pictures.

Replace the race name at the end for the one you'd like to view..

Still doesn't have several pictures.

Funny, I can't find pictures of any of the higher tiers anywhere.

Hydra, Dragon, Basilisk, Rakshasa, Giant, etc...

Jinn

Because they dont exist.WM dont have stat page pictures at tier 5 and beyond.

Obviously, Skotos needs an artist to do some work on GR.

Click the link, this is the URL that comes up:

http://http// grendelsrevenge.skotos.net//images/race_paintings/troll.png

Missing a colon (':').

It's not that it's missing a colon, it's that it has an extra "http//" at the front.
