Lost Pages of Taborea: Patch 4.0.3 changes
Last week, Runes of Magic's latest patch brought Knight skill balancing, saw the return of the Juice Festival, and tried to remove some macro functions. All in all, it wasn't a huge patch, but it was enough to light up the RoM forum with a lot of chatter. As it turns out, many vocal players ...

Lost Pages of Taborea: Do-It-Yourself Combat Engine
When I first started playing Runes of Magic and other MMOs, I never used addons because they broke my perceived immersion.

Masthead Studios discusses Earthrise economy
It's an immutable law: create an online game where virtual currency is used and it'll inevitably give rise to a black market for that currency, not to mention for the various items in the MMO. Earthrise will be no different, but developer Masthead Studios aims to be proactive about the problem of ...

Darkfall lays out a strict anti-macroing policy
There are no levels in Darkfall Online. Instead, they use a skill-based progression system. For example: the more you cast magic missile, the better your magic missiles become.
