YAY! We're glad you came back to TFC!

For those of you who have played before, you will find that just as a lot is still the same, a LOT has changed. Here's a few of the big changes that you should be aware of:

  • Potion colors have changed.
  • ALL classes and ALL races can have ALL stats - not just their primary stat - go to 25.
  • For those who are level 50: You can still increase your stats! For every 150k exp you gain, you can gain up to 3 HPs. Every 450k, you can get up to 3 hp / 3 mana!
  • There are new quests! AMMQs (Archmob Mini-Quest) and Scavenger Hunts get run pretty frequently. There are two types of AMMQs: Team Friendship (no harming quest participants, kill stealing, weapon stealing, etc) or Kill Your Neighbor / No Holds Barred (Free for all, do as you like). When you win one, there is often (not always, but often) a prize in the form of a Quest Point Voucher!
    • WARNING! When an AMMQ is running, safe rooms are not safe _FOR ANYONE_, not just those participating in a quest. So be careful of hunting mobs or ghosts! Also, the AMMQ suspends certain room flags. So be careful!
  • There are Awards! You can gain awards and ribbons and all sorts of things for both active (most LQs or scavenger hunts) and passive (time online, character age, etc) achievements, as well as some contributory awards (submitting score titles).
  • There are things called Quest Points! You can get them for winning quests of various sorts. You can save them up and buy things with them.
  • When creating a new character, use the GROWNUP command before level 1. It sets a bunch of user-friendly configs/settings.
  • Read FYI 17 -- the mud is running on a faster server, so the game may move faster than you expect!
  • There's a whole new continent that might not have been there when you visited last! Check out the Places page! And you can get to it by riding on a submarine!
  • Curious what someone has been up to? Use the WHOIS command!
  • Ran into a dragon? Gear all etched? You can now have it repaired at the Mountain of Knowledge.
