Yes, true. But it's not just doubtful that would happen. While it would make radu extremely happy, it's a certainty that it's not going to happen.

How about just coding it so they work like bones? If your food is full you just can't eat another till your food lvl decreases. If you already have ts enabled then you cannot use another until the effect is gone.

This wouldn't work as you say. Someone else would just purchase the items at the lower price and resell for higher price. Happens often. With a open market and no throttle on the price it's impossible for one or even a few people to lower a market "value". That would require a community.

It seems as if this evil Gnome has struck yet again! This hyperbag is hidden somewhere on IP! Is it outside or is it inside? Only your keys can tell HAPPY HUNTING FOLKS! PaulB GM of BO$$

Also I would like to point out the fact that one contributor to there being so many armors in game is that there are not as many players as there was some years ago. If it wasn't for NPC selling manu items like the ones you mentioned it would have been impossible to get certain armors. There is no reason for plates/cuisses/etc to be removed as purchasable items from NPC. The problem lies in the fact that prices are very inflated. Caused by the players themselves. Think about it this way... If rosto were sold via NPC for 50Kgc then no player would be able to charge 60Kgc for one. Same goes for armors/weapons. There needs to be a limit on prices so they don't get hiked up beyond the already painful prices they can cost already. Prices for bindings/serps/etc need to drop but that just isn't going to happen because of one reason... No NPC sells these items to set the limit.

I like that idea. Thanks for answering my question

I like the idea of forcing a dung portal invasion instead of a rat. Would be great addition imo. I do have to ask though, would the invades be able to spread or would they be restricted to dung portals room?

How's that going for you? I really can't say what was my biggest project but recently I did 12K creature food with a guild member and that took us 13 days. Glad to be done with it.

I voted weekly with higher exp payout.

Well it appears as this evil little Gnome has hidden a hyperbag in Forest of the falls! HAPPY HUNTING! PaulB GM of BO$$ [16:55:02] [PaulB @ 6]: ok ok, I guess I will give one other clue.. It's up against something [19:42:40] [PaulB @ 6]: ok I'll give another clue Check stones/walls

Bag was found by Zodiac Thanks for hunting folks

I could imagine that from a coding standpoint this might provide for some challenges but with said challenges I think it might just be a very well thought out suggestion. How about attributes? Would those remain the same? I would also ask how would this be tied into perks like I can't dance? +1

I believe he is saying that he lost 2 rosto in instance with the team. He died a 3rd time dropping some of his gear and saying Dleh took his death bag. Also he is saying he didn't receive any share of the instance drops after it ended.

But their prices go up after break rate increased and supply decreased.

[15:15:21] [stay_puff @ 6]: bingo 120k for rdholam hahah [15:15:32] [stay_puff @ 6]: thats big price [15:15:40] [stay_puff @ 6]: made me smile [15:15:44] [Painy @ 6]: 100k on bots noob [15:15:55] [stay_puff @ 6]: hey 100k i still smiling [15:16:11] [momr58 @ 6]: how many you have stay? [15:16:22] [PaulB @ 6]: Honestly if you're going to pay 100K mine as well just a col that wont break so easy [15:16:25] [stay_puff @ 6]: 0 but makes all jerks pay more [15:16:41] [stay_puff @ 6]: fes 10 gc each soon [15:16:53] [_Zodiac_ @ 6]: i really doubt that [15:16:57] [alex_s @ 6]: ??? [15:17:16] [stay_puff @ 6]: there has always been an increase has there not? [15:18:31] [wuffzel @ 6]: its cause instances don't give that much helms anymore... [15:18:37] [stay_puff @ 6]: i make channel 2014 is that okay guys [15:19:23] [sandMan @ 6]: They will drop soon..everyone start useing CoL's..Atleast they degrade.not Break and besides higher lvl's a/d really dont need all that extra mana and HP's [15:20:40] [sandMan @ 6]: with will of 12 and vitality of 24 I got 144 etheral points [15:21:14] [Zilding @ 6]: radu mentioned yesterday that he may have pinks start dropping rdholam [15:21:32] [tOnI2 @ 6]: where will be the invasion [15:21:34] [wuffzel @ 6]: wow....that would be worth to level magic \o/ [15:21:40] [stay_puff @ 6]: [stay_puff @ 2014]: this is where ill talk [15:21:42] [PaulB @ 6]: I like his idea about making the rdholam manuable tbh. [15:22:04] [radu @ 6]: was wondering if people would be interested in buying them from the shop [15:22:06] [radu @ 6]: no warranty [15:22:12] [wuffzel @ 6]: or make it rare when mixing other dragon helm... [15:22:19] [Myd1 @ 6]: be cheaper to spend 100k on bot then to manu them [15:22:21] [radu @ 6]: no one mixes dragon helms [15:22:24] [PaulB @ 6]: I doubt people would with how often they break tbh [15:22:47] [radu @ 6]: it depend son the price, no? [15:22:53] [wuffzel @ 6]: hmm 100k now...that would be 8-10 $ on shop ? [15:22:55] [sandMan @ 6]: Thats why I was saying the CoL a much better deal..rather a degrade then a "break" right in middle of combat [15:22:55] [patriot @ 6]: how much would you sell them on shop for? [15:23:08] [radu @ 6]: not sure [15:23:12] [radu @ 6]: maybe an auction [15:23:30] [December_XXIV @ 6]: rdholam on shop would be not bad [15:23:37] [radu @ 6]: something like 80 bucks for 10? [15:23:41] [sandMan @ 6]: But would also ruin the instances.. [15:23:46] [radu @ 6]: why? [15:23:49] [December_XXIV @ 6]: nope [15:23:53] [patriot @ 6]: fair price [15:24:11] [stay_puff @ 2014]: nope nobody instances with puffy [15:24:11] [wuffzel @ 6]: ppl still do instances without helm drop [15:24:11] [PaulB @ 6]: $8 for something that could break in an hour I doubt. But not sure tbh [15:24:16] [sandMan @ 6]: Why risk instanceing for rdholm when you can simply go to shop and buy 1/ [15:24:33] [wuffzel @ 6]: ahh...right PaulB .. but rosto can poof in a second ;p [15:24:33] [radu @ 6]: because you don't only get that from instances? [15:24:37] [sandMan @ 6]: Just athought..we do instances in "hopes" of rdholm drops is all [15:24:43] [radu @ 6]: and shop is not free [15:25:03] [Zilding @ 6]: eh, yes, but skill and care can prevent rosto from disappearing, rdholam breaking is just luck [15:25:03] [sandMan @ 6]: lol rosto's aint either when a bad mistake is made instanceing ..lol [15:25:11] [PaulB @ 6]: Well wuffzel people buy rosto with the intent to lose them over their gear. [15:25:21] [sandMan @ 6]: true PaulB.. [15:25:22] [momr58 @ 6]: you have more control over whether or not the rosto is gonna poof [15:25:24] [PaulB @ 6]: Your argument is flawed [15:25:32] [sandMan @ 6]: true momr. [15:26:13] [sandMan @ 6]: But shop would be great idea..this way you dont have to instance or over pay gc to get one.. [15:26:15] [PaulB @ 6]: Me personally, I wouldn't spend $8 knowing that what I bought can break very easy [15:26:24] [radu @ 6]: umm [15:26:27] [PaulB @ 6]: Decrease the break rate on them and I bet people would buy [15:26:28] [wuffzel @ 6]: i broke 1 helm in about 18 months...and i use it very often [15:26:35] [radu @ 6]: now that I am looking at ym stats... [15:26:41] [sandMan @ 6]: oh...wuff shouldnt said that [15:26:52] [Myd1 @ 6]: cher broke 7-8 in last week [15:26:52] [momr58 @ 6]: how much do you tank wuff? [15:27:15] [radu @ 6]: the chance of rholm to break is not that high [15:27:15] [wuffzel @ 6]: well...i fight mostly mobs under my att level...and no tanking here [15:27:26] [radu @ 6]: only 4 times higher than ice torso for example [15:27:40] [Zilding @ 6]: it's my understanding that it's 4x more likely than CoL? Think I remember reading that once [15:27:43] [wuffzel @ 6]: but the new crit hit formular ? [15:27:49] [radu @ 6]: new? [15:27:58] [wuffzel @ 6]: ok..the old new one [15:28:01] [sandMan @ 6]: but what would be the % of the odds? of breaking? say like 1 in 500,000? [15:28:06] [PaulB @ 6]: My guildie breaks them very often. Cher broke 7-8 in a week. That rate seems high enough tbh [15:28:19] [PaulB @ 6]: Well at $8 a pop [15:28:19] [Jayim_Duinara @ 6]: Completely pointless interjection: Ice dragon armor looks really cool. [15:28:27] [wuffzel @ 6]: hmm...you should ask tanks for the rate then.. [15:28:28] [momr58 @ 6]: lelu and solo quit using them cuz they break so often [15:28:29] [radu @ 6]: it depends on what you fight [15:28:38] [radu @ 6]: if you have 8 monsters on you, well, yeah [15:28:52] [wuffzel @ 6]: or tank high mobs [15:28:57] [radu @ 6]: obviously it will break fast [15:28:58] [PaulB @ 6]: My guildie fighting single not multi and broke 3 last week iirc [15:29:00] [sandMan @ 6]: that's like commons sense [15:29:12] [wuffzel @ 6]: if you tank with def 140 a dragon...or so [15:29:16] [radu @ 6]: or if you train monsters that always hit you [15:29:42] [wuffzel @ 6]: yep [15:29:56] [Zilding @ 6]: it's my understanding that stuff gets a break chance when a critter hits you, even if your armor protects you against all dmg? [15:30:01] [wuffzel @ 6]: it was around rosto price long time ? [15:30:07] [@PK central @ 6]: _KiLLeR_GuY_ killed Rosabel. [15:30:13] [wuffzel @ 6]: i bought my last for 58k [15:30:23] [sandMan @ 6]: lol 58K is a discount nowdays [15:30:47] [wuffzel @ 6]: i bought my last for an event .. 1/2 year ago or so [15:30:49] [Zilding @ 6]: 58k huge discount, I broke one a couple weeks ago and cheapest I could find was 90k [15:30:58] [radu @ 6]: well, I want to test the waters, got an offer of 50 usd for 10 rholms [15:31:03] [radu @ 6]: anyone offering more? [15:32:55] [Zilding @ 6]: that seems a bit pricey compared to gc, if 25 rosto == $100, and rdholams are currently > rosto [15:33:21] [wuffzel @ 6]: but the helm price is only up cause no one selling [15:33:52] [Zilding @ 6]: ya... true... and that's with the extra 5 rostos for spending $100, too, if you only bought $50 of rostos it'd be right on 1:1 [15:33:52] [December_XXIV @ 6]: and coz of radu decreased drop of it [15:34:42] [Zilding @ 6]: well I don't get paid until next week so it's a moot point for me anyway [15:35:08] [vzbucks @ 6]: same happened when learner bought all rosts ingame, increased the prices from 16k to 50kgc.. ppl bought! o the price never went down. supply and demand! [15:35:17] [wuffzel @ 6]: im still broke..and will be a lot of months/years...lol...but im rich on gc [15:36:24] [radu @ 6]: vzbucks, that's not at all what happened... [15:36:41] [Dleh @ 6]: bad learner [15:37:19] [vzbucks @ 6]: can u remember when he won lotto, bought all the rosts from bots, he put prices to 50kgc right?!! ppl bought them because they needed [15:37:42] [Dleh @ 6]: should've played old school style [15:37:42] [vzbucks @ 6]: and the prices never went down, just p [15:37:49] [vzbucks @ 6]: (* up [15:38:13] [radu @ 6]: as I was saying, this is not what happened [15:38:16] [December_XXIV @ 6]: didnt did learner the same with binding? [15:38:23] [vzbucks @ 6]: ok tell me what happened pls [15:38:57] [FeaRM @ 6]: i remember him doing it for silver ore, back when it was 2 each, he bough all and wouldnt sell lower than 2.5 lol [15:39:30] [vzbucks @ 6]: :patiently waits.... [15:39:53] [Dleh @ 6]: o.0 im sure people could just mine it and buy from others [15:40:13] [vzbucks @ 6]: can u check when learner won iirc 2Mgc from lotto, then bought all rosts from bots? [15:40:31] [_Zodiac_ @ 6]: wait [15:40:40] [vzbucks @ 6]: then prices went to 50kgc! [15:40:41] [_Zodiac_ @ 6]: you seriously think that learner made rostos go from 16k-50k LOL

I'm not really sure if this would be considered a "bug" but I have noticed it before and figured it's an error in the maps. I'm using TG storage as example here. See this first screenie. I am facing directly away from the door and it's pointing north. By this placement it puts the entrance to VOTD in a north-east direction: Now to the outside. I am facing in the same exact direction as I am in this previous screenie but from outside the storage. Notice the door placement. Only problem is that from outside it has me facing west, not north and puts VOTD entrance in a north-west direction. This is an error by logic. If I am facing the door on the outside and I walk inside facing directly away from the door then I should still be facing west, not north. View screenie and compare: I have noticed this in other maps such as Portland storage and mentioned it some years back in game. I know it's probably just a minor detail but I figured I would post it here and make it officially announced so maybe it can be fixed.

Anything to encourage new players is a good thing +1
