Hello everyone,

I just obtained a pistol with the armor piercing attribute, and I am curious how this works.  Does it just ignore a portion of the mob's ballistic resist?  If so, is there a way to tell how much? 

Thanks!

Howdy again

1)  Can coders make weapons and/or clothing with stat bonuses?

2)  If they can, is there a mechanism in place for them to control the level of the item?

 Thanks!

Hello everyone,

The icon for this hideout is between three buildings in Uriah Ind Park.  Of these, I can only seem to get into one of them.  The doors on the other two buildings go from being usable to being unuasable as I get close enough to interact with them.  I'm a bti confused as to why this is happening.

Anyway, I'd appreciate any tips to help me get into this exile hideout.

Thanks!

Hello everyone,

I'm a long time MMORPG player who just started MXO yesterday.  I am having a blast so far, but I have a few game mechanic questions:

The first deals with grouping and level differences.  I'd like to know how that is handled here.  Is there a mechanic such as side-kicking or mentoring in place so that high level characters can group well with low level characters?  Are their level restrictions for grouping?  I'm looking to recruit a few friends to play, and I am wondering if I will have to make a new toon to play with them or if I can use an existing higher level toon without messing up their initial missions.

The second deals with contested mobs/loot.  Are there locked encounters a la eq2?  If not, is it a 'whoever does the most damage' system such as SWG that determines who gets the kill credit/looting rights?  What are the generally accepted taboos around contested mobs?  I have a lot of experience with eq2 and swg, and the general community attitudes differ greatly in those two games, so I figured I'd ask here to avoid misunderstandings in the future.

 I thought I had another question, but it has escaped me   Thanks for reading and any input you can provide.
