New coders petition

Wyks has created a petition thread asking for M2H to get more coders working on syrnia, so that regular updates are done and more ideas implemented.

Personally I think more coders for Syrnia is a good idea.

Syrnia has been in existence for over 3 years and started by M2H while in his late teens.  It is probably safe to say that his life has moved since then early days and also his priorities.  Which is why we see 4 or so updates a year, with M2H coding like mad for a few days per update.

Active coders would be able to fix bugs quicker and make changes more often.  Also a graphics person would be needed, as M2H has relied on his brother for these in the past.

Someone would still need to decide what should and shouldn't be coded, rather than just add every idea that is suggested!

New weapon

A new weapon is dropped by the Giant polar bear.  A Bear Claw!

Stats are 28 aim / 24 aim.

New items on party island

Party island is now open, Merry christmas everyone :)

Here are the new items you can get on the island:

Red Bauble

Fallen Star

Tinsel

Decorated Christmas Tree

The Fallen star you get by walking, the perfect tree you get by woodcutting on the island, tinsel and bauble from fishing.

Christmas Invasion

[0] 23:14 Can you hear that Noise, The stamping of tiny hooves? Oh No! They have escaped from the Christmas Invasion Goodie Box!


From what I can gather there is an Invasion of Feral reindeers at Port Senyn

Update:

There is an Young Eagle invasion at Nabb mines.
A locked chest with 500 combinations has been found at Skulls nose.

Gnome Trowing

I unlocked the 4th game at the Elven casino a while back, though haven't really played it. But I found myself with an Extra 8300gp and figured I'd spend it at the casino :P

Gnome Trowing (Yes it's called that) is much like the Gnome Launching game but instead of aiming to hit a target, you try to trow your gnome between two Posts. The Two posts you need to land between are at 241m and 269m.



Each Game Costs 6chips, and for winning you gain 60 chips,

I haven't done a test on the Percentages yet, but the Ranges of trows is 1m to 299m inclusive.

Christmas 2008

Syrnia Corner wishes you all a merry christmas and a happy new year!

And now to the important stuff ;-)

At 00:01 Syrnia time on 25th December the 2008 Christmas celebrations will commence with the opening of Party Island. You can reach Port Party from Port Senyn, Crab Nest, Burning Beach or Eylsian docks, and this year you will be able to return to your originating port via Port Party. However, do make sure you return to your originating port before 23:59 as otherwise you will be returned to Port senyn or Crabs nest. This celebration will last 24 hours.

We don't like to disappoint so this year will involve the now firm favourates of chest opening competitions and invasions in addition to sitting on Santa's lap. A new "Dress your own Christmas Tree competition" has been created and to add some extra Christmas spice to the day we have introduced one or two new monsters. Who knows you might even find one or two new items!

Can we take this opportunity to thank you for your continued support during 2008 and wish you and your family a fun packed Christmas period!

New Syrnia greasemonkey script

Ciaran has released a new script for Syrnia which adds some great features similar to NebuneX's old script which stopped working after the update. Looking at the script it uses some of the code From NebuneX's script for the stats but the rest is all new code.

Features:

Click on player name in chat to enter whisper command
Click on chat number to change chat channel
Buttons to insert symbols into chat
Option to remove the send button (useful for those who don't use it)
Option to move the chat links (useful for those with small screen resolutions)
Option to make the chat input box larger
Button to start whisper with player
Button to message player
Click on clan tag to open DW-HQ.com clan window
Allows the forum/clan pages to be opened multiple times
Enhance stats page with bars and percentages
Quest links to DW-HQ guide
Mark voting pages that (may) give green gifts (in green and blue)
Mass message of clan members from clan member page
Compute the level and XP factors on clan score (DWHQ)
Message players directly from on DWHQ
Travel map tooltip
On mouse over text telling town name

It is worth installing this script just for the whisper features alone.

How to install it

This script will only work with Firefox and Opera I believe.

1. Download and install Greasemonkey

2. Go this this page and click the install button

3. Restart Firefox

(If you already have greasemonkey installed, then just do step 2. You may need to upgrade greasemonkey to the latest version if you are using firefox 3 though)

Stemosaurus Fight

The Stemosaurus is a cute CL 183 creature that lives in Arch cave 4.

Like all the dino's down in the caves, it only spawns from time to time. Today one spawned in front of me so naturally I chose to fight it.

My stats:
Armour (All gold) - 92
Weapon (Platina axe) - 70 Aim / 50 Power
Enchants - +12 Aim / + 6 Power

25 was the hardest I hit the Stemo. It's hardest hit on me was 42.

+aim and +power suits of armour

In the past there has been debates as to which is better, +power or +aim, so I set out to test them.

Aim suits add to your attack level and power suits add to your strength level.

In theory a power suit will increase your maximum hit and the aim suit will increase your chances of hitting higher. What I found was it depends on the creature you are fighting.

I am assuming that all creatures have similar stats to players, a strength, attack, defence and health level. The values the creature has and your own values determine what is best to use.


For instance, a dino (Waranerus, Honorus, Stemosaurus, Roodarus) has high defence levels, so to get a good hit on it you need a high attack level. As +aim suits increase your attack numbers, an aim suit is best to use here.

That is an example that works well for everyone as the dino's are so high level. For lower level creatures it all depends on your own levels.

I found with my combat levels, and using a Platina axe, it was better to use a +power suit for fighting grey bats than the aim kit. I got more one hit kills, which meant faster xp and less food usage.

I switched to using the platina 2 handed sword and the aim suit then became more effective, probably becouse the different in stats than the platina axe.

So to work out roughly what you should be using, I would say if the creature has a level that is a few levels below you or higher, use an aim suit. If the creature is quite a few levels below you, the power suit may be better.

Without knowing the exact combat stats of each creature, this is just a rough guide. Some creatures may be a low combat level yet have a high defence value (you are more likely to miss or hit them for a lower number), which means aim would be better. So testing suits for a few hours is still the best way to determine which is best for each creature.

Line Faerie Strikes Again?

The Line Faerie has been waving her wand today, or is it another Line Faerie?

This thread was created to thank the Mysterious Donator who donated for a number of people.

It's very nice to see someone being so kind this close to X-mas :)

Edit:

Seems that the Line Fairy Has been waving her Euro Wand, as have two or more other Mysterious Donators

Their gifts have shown us what Christmas is about (Making people happy) and have brought Chat back to it's former glory.
