News and Updates on Valheru MUD

14. November 2001 - SHOPKEEPERS UPDATED
From the next reboot it is no longer possible to steal from shopkeepers. This is mainly to prevent people from selling the same item to the shopkeeper over and over again.

13. November 2001 - NEW ZONE ONLINE
A new zone is online, written by Vega. It has a lot of new and unique features and should be a lot of fun to explore.
You can access the new area from the Warntz area.

29. August 2001 - CHANGES MADE TO THE MASTER OF EVIL
You know who we are talking about, and if you don't, you will have no need for this information anyway. This fellow has been changed in 2 steps. First he was downgraded a bit, and stripped of his damage spell. This made him a bit to easy, so now he uses a damage spell again, but he is still less powerful than before the first modification was made.

24. August 2001 - A COUPLE OF DIVINER ITEMS HAVE BEEN BROUGHT ONLINE
To bring more balance to the classes, a couple of diviner items have been put online.

15. August 2001 - CHANGES TO THE "DUST DEVIL" SPELL
The "Dust Devil" spell has been modified to have the same one-summoned limit as the rest of the summon line spells. This is done in order to prevent solo'ing of high level mobs.

15. August 2001 - CHANGES TO THE "DISARM" SKILL
It is no longer possible to disarm monsters wielding highly magical weapons. This is done to prevent players from simply disarming a monster and taking the weapon. You will now have to kill the monster to get the weapon.

12. August 2001 - THE INFAMOUS "BACK FOR MORE" DIL HAS RETURNED
That is right. However, it should have none of the weird bugs the old version had, and it works slightly different from the old version too. The effect will no longer wear off after a couple of minutes, but if you die, it disappears instantly.

5. August 2001 - THE FOOL OF MAGIC HAS BEEN CHANGED
The wielder of the sword of the hawk has been modified a bit. He should now be slightly easier to hit, and no longer uses the magic of his sword for offensive purposes.

2. August 2001 - WE HAVE A RUNNING TESTSITE
Finally we have a stable testsite. If you are building anything you deem worthy of being put on our testsite, contact Nightshade or Lurk. Note that you must have a zone ready for compilation before you can get an account on the testsite.

Old News - STONE (AND HIS ZONES) IS NO LONGER ACTIVE ON VALHERU MUD
Stone has decided to take his zones elsewhere. Unfortunatly this is a breach of the builders agreement, so his zones have been removed from the MUD along with all items in them.
