Yes, I knew Apollo was known for archery. :D Most of those Greek/Egyptian gods were known for loads of things.

Also, not sure about encircle + hyperactivity on those lists. Those mobs arn't that hard to find.

I love how the Dionysus priest can do more than Dionysus himself can.  *heh*  You'd think as a god he'd be able to train more.

Yeah, but gods shouldn't know how to manifest as they have the power naturally.

Nod at Viri, that's why the vetting. Though, I do admit I put in hyperactivity for fun, considering the role of the Hera priestess. However, I thought the Pirate Leader was as 'hidden' as the encircle trainers currently, if not more so.

Of course, if Kvetch gets the trainers in, the entire list could be deleted, since the Aegean Islands comprise of 40 islands and 1 small land mass called Euboea. Big..big..big..big..big..place.

Anyway, what do you all think about adding in pre-req skills or "ICable" pre req skills to trainers?

For example, for mobs I gave advanced melee to, I also gave them melee, for Siren type mobs, I give them charm + sweet dreams. And for Gods that teach T4 spells/skills eg, Helios for Mind Fire, I gave him Fireball, Inferno, Fire Shield, on the basis if that he can teach a T4 spell/skill, he should be able to teach T1-T3 IC-like spells/skills as well.

I know, I know, this may sound a bit pointless, but.. I do have problems with Lionel the armorer of Olde Yorke training shield.  I mean, if he was teaching them how to MAKE a shield I'd have no problem, but how to cast a spell?  Problem.  Just thought I'd note that even though I still put it in.

And, Robin of Locksley, as far as I know, was known for his bow, not for his crossbow skill.  But still.. since no-one pointed it out, I put it in.  *blah*

Good point. Never really thought about it that way. Guess I got confused with the Robber Baron and King Arthur's knights teaching shield.

For the crossbow, that's a bit iffy. I put it in originally because I thought very few mobs (if any), use the crossbow, but come to think of it..there's actually a lot when I went through the zones. So I guess it can be taken out too.

*Fizban spots Kvetches sanity and remembers he was supposed to tell her if he did, but seeing as he hasn't eaten in a while he eats it instead.*

OK – thanks, Erwin for putting together these lists, and Kvetch, for setting the Trainers in OLC.

I think that even the players, who were against this change to start with, have come to realize that the new system actually encourages exploring, which after all is what 4D basically is about. I’ve come to realize myself, that publishing the names of the zones and Trainers actually will encourage this exploring too. Without any detailed info, some players will just give up and sit at Recall whining about things being too hard and intimidating. Knowing the name of the zone and the Trainer gives you a specific goal to look for. And hopefully, once you’ve managed to seek a trainer out in a specific zone that you never visited before, at least some of you might realize that there are a lot more interesting things in this game than just killing the same mobs in the same few zones over and over for experience.

I’ve made a total list of all the trainers, based on the original helpfile list and Erwin’s new lists. A few of the skills/ spells have been removed from it, since they didn’t make sense to us ICly, (above all the Grocers and Bakers getting detect poison). I’ve also added a few skills and spells that seemed natural to me).

I’ll publish this list on a new thread, to make it easier to find.
The list is set up after the system Dimension – Zone – Location – Mob Name. This means that you’ll have to look a bit to find a specific skill, but it still provides very good info for those who care to read.

Two more things:

1. Eventually we’ll also publish the list on the Main Website, but not quite yet.
First I want as many as possible to check it out and see if some of the trainers don’t make sense, or if we’ve missed something in the process. In both cases , please post corrections and additions on this thread, not the new one.

2. I know that we decided not to post any info about the Trainers for Behead and Cleave, but I’ve started to think that this is a mistake. My personal belief is that we should at least post the name of the zone where these trainers are. I’d like some input on this from as many players as possible, feel free to set up a poll if you like
