Here's the problem ( I think). When the server reset last time the level restricted equipment box got checked. This will disallow any log in of a character who has an equiped item that is higher level then the character has acheived.
A simple DM reseting the server will not fix it, it requires the server holder (Helm) to uncheck that box and reset the server.
As soon as we can get in contact with Helm to do this the problem will be fixed.

i love info, w/ info i will wait damn near eternity, w/ out it i may last 24 hours same here  so thanks for the info but: yes I do believe my lowbies have gear in their inventories (not equipped) that they cant use yet (cause you cant know if it has a lvl restriction or not till you try  ) - but what about my 40s? no gear should be too high for them..... or does this include class/alignment/race restrictions too? (altho the chars I can log have such items on them as well..... :S) |

I see today, it still has been going on...
Tempus is out of town, and he has the fastest way to get a hold of Helm. So this may take a bit.
We knew about it yesterday though. Tempus will redo the comic contest for another day.

wtf :S how do I know if I have such an item? will it say "you must be lvl100 to wear this item" when I try to equip it or something?
and why would such items even exist? nobody can reach lvls above40 so there is no way they can be of any use to anyone...... or can they?

That's the base Bioware level restriction - you just enable it and it automatically restricts every item based on it's value. Those restrictions are very high (we are talking stuff like restricting a +1d6 fire longsword to lvl 6+ or even more) Since Redemption is a high magic server, some items have the max allowed restriction, which is (or at least used to be a while back, not sure if that got changed with any of the updates) 100. Logically, that number shows that even Bioware can do an epic fail on some things |

It's really not an issue, we don't do level restrictions on items, they only time it would ever matter is when the server gets a bug on reset and picks up the restriction until we can get Helm to reset it. |

in Dis certain keys are needed to unlock the doors (2nd floor, 3rd floor, etc.)
i have the key that drops from the boss and it is suposed to unlock the doors EVERYWERE...
the key isn't unlocking the door on ground floor door....i'm not sure if it unlockes the 2nd and 3rd yet but i'm thinking it doesn't...

Its a little hard to make a universal key unless all the doors have the same name (toolset won't allow that) or to have a special script. Which means that script is broken. When I talk to Tempus I will mention it. Thanks for the info T.

I don't remember that key opening all those doors, I thought it just opened a different 'secret' door. Perhaps my memory is failling on this one.

The key used to open the last secred door in Dis which then lead you to a place where you got special gear if you were a core build (40 lvls of one core class). I can't really remember the name, but I know that was taken out years ago (not 100% sure why though).
Now the key remained there (don't know the real reason), but I do remember that one of the DMs (Shai, Mess or Aranan) traded me a Restring Voucher (allows you to give an unique name to an item) for the one I had.

That door was disabled before I started, but the key still drops. Would be cool if we could trade the key in for a random item.
