Basic Medievia Help
This page will showcase clanmembers' suggestions and hints, tricks of the trade so to speak, for playing Medievia.
If you have a suggestion or hint you would like to be included, please email me at [email protected]
or mudmail me a note. Thanks!
- Keep a boat of some sort (I suggest seaweed from Mystical Forest. It's found on the tritons.) in your inventory so you don't have to worry about the levitation spell wearing out. Other boats you might try are the following: a large silver mat with upturned edges from E'urdin Zilzarten, boots of water walking from the Crime Underground, or Horneg's boots of Levitation from Horneg's Keep.
- So you've died in Evil Derah. Quaffing a vial of unholy water doesn't
teleport you into the wilderness. Praying in the church in Evil Derah doesn't work. (That's because the gods have forsaken that evil place.) So, here's what you do. From the fountain in Evil Derah, with the hag and blood elemental, go west, west, west, all south on Lupine Road, east through gate, south, east, down. When you come back up you'll be back in Good Derah and can make your way to the church to pray again.
- If you're being tripped by a thief mob, drop a throwing weapon of some sort, a knife, a shuriken, anything will do. The mob will pick it up and throw it at you rather than trip you. If it happens to hit you, be sure to drop the throwing weapon again.
- A mob come into the room and start attacking you but you want first swing? Here's what to do. As soon as this happens, target the mob attacking you and this will give you the first swing in the continuing rounds of combat. What use does this have? It may just be me, but when formed, I find one tends to hit more often when you are formed and this happens and one person targets the mob.
- Looking for a place to fix your alignment to evil but don't want to deal with the overcrowded Medievia or Trellor? Here's a suggestion. Go to E'urdin Zilartzen and start killing clickers (most of them are hidden, just watch out for IoIo's). They are all good aligned and if you're lucky, you can pick up some castanets (hp/mana finger, low lvl) or thoraxes (hp/-armor body, mid level, highest speculated tweak 30hps/-20armor).
