This Hack-Slash circle based but far from circle mud is one of the best and has a lot of regular players. Tempus is newbie friendly with a huge world. You should really check it out. Player killing is allowed. Tempus has a Remort system where once you get to the max level you can start again and raise your stats even higher. Ten times to be exact. The equipment is level-less. Meaning you do not have to wait to be max level to get the best gear in the game. You just have to be rich enough or lucky enough to get it.

The remort is also a dual class system so you can make whatever kind of combo you want. Want to be a Thief/Mage? By all means go ahead. Tempus has a timeline where if you want swords and staffs you would fight in the past. If you want Guns and Implants for your character you go to the Future. There is classes for the future and past alike. So you can also be a Cyborg/Cleric. I only know one mud that has this kind of classes where you can be both. Makes for some interesting characters.

Hope to see you soon, Strago.
