For my character I made a Male Elf Mage. Once I got to the area with the skill gates, I was over weight and couldn't move until I put the gold into my Reg Bag and dropped it on the ground. I dragged and dropped the bag to the gate which was the one that I wanted to go through. I chose the Tamer/Ranger gate. I picked up the bag and was able to step through the gate, thankfully.

When I arrived in Brit with my new skills, I was still overweight. I think the STR was still at 25. I was happy that I was able to open the bank from the location where I appeared, so all was well enough.

I was under the impression that stats would be adjusted after the gate. If they were, maybe somehing went wrong with my character and being overweight in the gate messed it up. Who knows, I'm working skills to get it up.

But, from this, I'd like to suggest that the starting 5K Gold, be in the bank and not in the player's pack.

If there's a reason for having the gold go directly into the pack and not the bank, I understand. It's not a show stopper and I was able to make it all work and others should be able to do the same (most likely many others already have).

Thanks

Alanor, sorry to hear that you had difficulties when starting. I have adjusted your stats in game to what they were supposed to be. I suspect that being overweight may have contributed to the issue of the gate not applying your stats correctly.

To avoid this in the future, new players will now receive a 5K bank check rather than 5K in gold (after tomorrow's restart).

Great idea!

And Thank You for adjusting the stats.
