      It's not a HUmarl, it's an NPC. There's a whole world of difference, there.

      I liked that they reduced the power of weapons. That way the game is fun and challenging actually. Good video game developers worry about the game being fun and challenging not so the game is just a run through, slash this dude, and run past type game. Besides people who complain about that kind of stuff will cheat anyway and that strength reducing thing wont even matter to you anymore. If you want an easy game go play some Final Fantasy game or something

      I doubt you'd like it anyway. GMs and server side saving should curb the use of those over powered hacked weapons.

      NPCs have classes too ya nit, just look at Red Ring Rico. In saying 'another HUmarl' I was not implying you will play her, but she's another HUmarl NPC like the aforementioned doomed explorer =P
