Im back!!!- [Feb 18th
'04]
Actually I've been back a month or so but I have been too busy to get
to updating the site. This round of updates is more or less fixing/adding
everything that was missed or changed since I last updated at the very beginning
of SLs. The site is still a work in progress so please if you have
anything to contribute please send it in. I have also
had my space literally increased ten fold so I can now start accepting
space-heavy items like full sized wallpapers, programs, etc.
I'd like to also say that im glad to be back and I'd like to say thankyou
to the three soldiers who helped me in getting back. Without them i'd
still be playing Diablo 2 :)
Figured I'd get at least this much done now, and anything else I come up
with I can add later.
Updated:
- Consolidated the site. It use to be on 2 seperate storage spaces and
now its on one. I am certain I joined it all up correctly but if you
see a 404-errors or missing pictures anywhere let me know please.
- Changed the Nano-init guide to reflect the new nano init rules
- Fixed the broken links.
- Added "where to find" locations for all the items I could.
- Removed links to sites that no longer exist.
- Moved the 1750 token merit boards to the Equipment Rack.
- Moved the "Improved" nanos to the Top Secret Equipment Pages.
- Archived old news.
- Added the following weapons to the Gun Rack to bring it up to patch 15.4.
(Argent Blaster, Jobe Personal Pistol, Pocket Cannon, JAME Blaster
Prototype XII)
- Added the following utilities to the Equipment Locker to bring it up to
patch 15.4 (Amused Spirit, Bigot's Ring of Sacrifice, Compagnero, Star of
Fidelity)
- Added the following armors to the Equipment Locker to bring it up to patch
15.4 (Allyssas' Precise Sleeves, Allyssas' Ballistic Boots, Allyssas'
Swift Pants, Ancient Container, Commander's Cerimonial Chest Plate, Mark
of the Fisher King, Bellum Badonis)
- Added a guide on getting the SL assault rifles to the briefing room.

the Download Section.

/Salute to Sjoko- [Nov 12th
'03]
Although I am a couple days late in finding out, I have seen on the
the forums that our beloved Soldier Professional Sjokomelk has decided to
call it quits. While I don't like the fact he's going as he was a really
nice person and a great professional, I do understand it and I'd like to
wish him all the best. Of course if he decides to change his
mind, all the better :) He has mentioned that his account is still
going to be active so hopefully something good will change to bring him totally
back.
If you are reading this Sjoko, thank you for all the hard work you've put
into the soldier community. I for one appreciated it and I know others
do as well. If you do decide to leave permanently, please send me an email.

Message from Sjoko and "Nugget Status"-
[Oct 14th '03]
Your soldier professional Sjokomelk has created a compilation thread
regarding some of the major issues involving the soldier profession
at the moment including weapons, perks, specials, nanos and general issues.
Below is a small portion of the thread which can be seen fully
here.
If you have the time, please go read it and leave your comments/views
on the topics presented.
Soldier Issues by Sjoko.
[Perks & Perk Specials]
Issue 1
Perk specials in Heavy Ranged:
A) Laser paint target & Triangulate target (dodge ranged debuff) is based
upon heavy weapons. When used the effect doesn't kick in
B) We don't have any viable heavy weapons available right now. That means
only a few raise heavy weapons
C) We want those specials to be reliant upon Assault Rifle instead
D) Weapon Bash always hit for minimum damage. Even with Heavy Weapons maxed.
E) The whole line is a joke (as far as specials concerned)
F) Napalm debuffs Fire AC, good idea for a perk, too bad we don't have decent
weapons with fire AC. This perk would be so much more attractive if it was
changed to debuff Radiation AC or if it debuffed more then just fire AC.
G) Make the LPT & TT negate the Acrobat perk, debuffs have always been
more efficient than buffs, why are our debuffs any different ?
Issue 2
Special Forces:
Perk Special 8 must be used when you have less than 25% hp left. That is
WAY too low. When you can use it you are either dead OR getting CH from a
doc so you won't have 25% hp anymore. That % should be raised, hopefully
doubled. (Lag etc may make this impossible to time with a doc, without one
we're doomed pretty fast, besides most docs don't like their patients to
get below 25%)

On a side note, I have been getting a few emails regarding on how I am doing
and If/When I will be returning. Aside from being very busy with midterms
at school, I am doing well, although still strapped for cash.
Thanks to the generous contributions of a few people in the
community I was able to get a video card that actually works with the changes
that FC made to AO. That being said I could technically be back any
time; However, being in the middle of midterms my priorities are in
school. After school is taken care of, I hope to be back once
i get enough money to reactivate my account and upgrade to SLs ($14.95 +
$29.95). That should take me a couple weeks or whenever my student loan comes
through. Either way I am looking forward to seeing all of you again.
Take care.

Shadowlands is here!!!- [Sept 9th
'03]
Shadowlands is here!! I though i'd do you all a favor and update
the site using Beta/Test information so you all have someting to see right
away.
Please be warned though, yes there is a LOT of new information here it
DOES come from the Test and Beta databases so the information is subject
to change and no one really knows where you can get it all yet. Things could
have been added and/or removed. Please do not use this to whine at
me or Funcom. The perk information is perticularly sketchy because
there isn't many who have tested them all yet.
Once everyone does start playing and finding these items. Please check
back here and send me an E-mail if the stats are not the same or if you know
where they drop and its not already listed here.
I will not be adding EVERYTHING in Shadowlands, just things that are really
for soldiers. eg) there are literally hundreds of new weapon variations.
Im only going to put the main ones down for now. Later when other
items are tested they will be added.
I encourage people to share the information with the soldier community rather
then hording new information to themselves. If you find out how to do something,
please write up a small guide for it. (Even a few paragraphs explaining what
you did in order to accomplish what would be VERY helpful) and post it
on the forums or send it to me. Especially with the specialization
quests, because many people will want to know how to do those. Please be
as exact as you can.
Updated:
- Removed the guide for the Decraium's Mk2 armor until a new one can
be written since the back way is an official exploit now.
- Perk Information found in the "Perks" menu to the right
- Added the MBS modifier to the weapons
