Ive been harvesting the flowers for the First 4 extracts for RVMs and end up with 4k of each (100 extracts, 50 RVM's) ,but Ive been debating if I should Mix on Non Scholars days or Save the flowers for mixing on scholars day. I guess it comes down to this: Do I want to wait for more Exp and CF (in which case, leveling muling would be have to be put on hold) or Do I want exp and CF right then and there? The only problem with NOT waiting for scholars day is what if the next day is scholars day and I dont have Ings for Scholars day. Its always that fear of "what if the next day is awesome" that gets me. So whats your opinion on this matter?

So Ive been running around since the stuff came out, two days straight. It uses an Insane amount of Food to run (Toads + Antis ftw). People have been asking me question about the stuff, So Im creating a FAQ about it: How do I run? Drink a potion of speed hax What does a potion of speed hax allow you to do? It allows you to run. Do you Use Food when Sitting? No, Regular Food usage. How long does the running last? Forever, Unless you get below -29 Food. Other than that it will last forever if you keep eating. Can you mix? Yeap. Pretty much "normal" EL life with running and Huge food usage when going from place to place. This means harvesting,mixing,magic,fighting..etc. Can you become a mule No. How much are these potions? Depending on the price of Lenny furs-1.5k to 3k (3k being bot price) what are the ings to the potion? Lenny Furs, MoP, AE. The full recipe can be found here How fast do you run? 2x speed, and times are halved, however there are some path finding losses and isnt much of a big deal really. Still quicker than walking. Is there any icon on your HUD that says if you are in running mode? Nope. You'll just move faster and food will go down quickly. How fast is food consumed? The food usage is now variable and depends on how much your carrying, if your full you will use more food than when empty (Based on %EMU full). I have found it uses up to 1 Food PER STEP when full (600 EMU as Of now) Can you run with armor on? Yes If I log out, can I still run? Yes. Do you harvest faster when using a speed hax pot? No. Im pretty sure Ive missed some, so I'll add as I go.

Bumpin This back Up, Since there are new people here, and speed hax is back.

When I log on to EL, my Offline buddies (greyed out) are reported by the EL client as being Online. I.e, the client says 'xyz is online" yet buddy list shows they are offline and greyed out.

nevermind, I already read the book.

I retract my old bid of 180kgc + 2bindings and Change it to 197kgc!

180k + 2 binding stones (17k) for a total worth of 197k

Well, from Post time (7:40) its been 30 minutes (now 8:10pm). I dont like the idea of depletable resources; 1) Get a large enough party or guild and you can deplete a resource in a short time. These people can then hoard silver and control prices. How would you determine if they are blocking a resource? They could easily say "its a guild project" 2) Whos to say that One IP address doesnt make 10 characters, and then go and deplete some resource? Given enough time, those alts can all mine some high valuable ore and hoard it. 3) In the long run, wont the harvestables be infinite? IF this idea comes, would you open up KSJ for silver/Iron harvesting (along with moving some chims) ? Im still unsure about this...Theres some fear in me about logging on, and not being able to fulfill a goal I have for a skill. But how about we test it for a week and see how it goes? Hmm, Heres a Idea; A new makable item for engineering: Resources Indicator, indicates how much resources are left for a given resource (Use with). ADD: I dont like the idea of multiplaying. Its cheating, and its wrong. We all worked hard for our chars, so why should someone with time on their hands with a large amount of alts get an advantage over me? Bu doing so, arent we removing team work from the game? There would be no reason for one to have a guild anymore, other than to socialize. Granted, my computer is fast, ButI doubt its fast enough to play more than one char at a time (unless i play with poorman-and whats the point of playing a game if it doesnt look good )

I'll admit, I hate the mini harvesting events, but Ive thought about something that would help those who hate it.. How about making a enhanced harvest med? Stops mini events from occuring and is only sold from a NPC. Price ~10k. It gives the same stats as a normal harv med, but stops the mini events from occuring. It would have the same break rate as a regular Harvest Med. Because its sold from a NPC, it would remove gc from the game. 10k Is cheap enough for those with a high bankroll to purchase, yet expensive enough that your garden variety n00b cant purchase it.

70k

I voted Yes. Believe it or not, but Ive been tempted to buy something from the shop to show my support. Hell, In the past Ive bought forum subscriptions, So maybe I should pay my dues. But Ive been waiting for something Other than Items to come out, that were really worth some money/time to me. I like the idea of getting more exp/more enriched essences or more stones. Or something like Arti Cape to get a higher chance at finding stones. I came to EL because it was the only MMO that had a awesome make system, and the fact at the time it was the only MMO that would run on Linux. Sure, there were others, but they didnt seem appetizing. Actually, I still look around for another MMO to try, but some look so demanding on your system Id need a gaming system to play a MMO (and btw I have 10 fans on my gaming comp-So its as loud as a 747 when running). Id rather not have my comp sound like a 747 when Im writing a report for school. EL still manages to look good and not use much system resources even on a "legacy AGP 8X" system.

SOLD FOR 45k! Thanks for watching o/

You know what I find strange? How is that people are able to charge 5k for a Tit chain that costs 7k to 8k worths of Ings (price of EFE). What gives people the right to charge such a drastic price reduction for something they know they could get More Money for? Same thing goes for Tit Long, Its a 8k Item yet you can only sell for 1k? Hell I would be happy if I got a 8k Drop. Its not even a supply and demand issue, as I really doubt the drop rate for Tit Chains are even that High, So what gives here? Whats the deal with the Low price of a Tit Chain or Tit Long? Are there really that many tit Chains in game that its reduced the price by 3k?

You made me have a moment of Nostalgia there...warcraft II ftw =O..Those fireball spells were awesome. You are right in saying that the range on some spells are rather short.. +1 For the original suggestion.

Looking to Go Up in the world of Magic? Look no further. For sale is 12k AE. Starting Bid is 90k Buy it now is 110k Opps forgot to set a End Date. This Wednesday(2/18/2009) Or at my discretion. SOLD!!!!!!

SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To a private buyer for 110k!! Congrats to the buyer!

Are you SURE about that? I am pretty sure that it can't use more than 1 food per step. Hmmm, updated, Thanks for the correction .

Updated per server date. Thanks

Im up to 5 Days Running (Not to brag or anything) But people have been asking me "Is it worth the 2 to 3k?" Correct me if Im wrong, But in previous Posts Cruella (or someone else) has stated that the rate at which gc is earned is flawed because you cannot take time into consideration. True. In reality, youd need some equation that takes into consideration Hours vs Gc earned. So what if we do; Time/2? Does that not mean more profit per game hours? Since I am spending less time walking from place to place, Do I not get stuff faster? Sure, I dont mix or harvest faster, But it does take the boringness out of harvesting. Ive found myself more "Awake" when harvesting and going from place to place. Why? I dont want to spend another 2 to 3kgc because I didnt eat. Same can be said with fighting, You dont want to loose that rosto because you werent paying attention, So you diss from a monster and run (which has happened to me before). So you learn vigilance on your Ctrl-1 key. Now some people will argue "Well 3k isnt much", But it adds up if I dont eat. What could I buy with 3kgc? * 300 Training Arrows * 100 PK arrows * 40 magic arrows * 46 Anti's * 1k FE ...etc. As I spend more on Speed pots, thats more I could have spent elsewhere. However, 3k is a small price to pay to get to places quicker, and reduce down time. Sure, I cant surf 4chan when en route to places, But even 4 chan gets boring after a while. People have also asked what I eat to keep running. Toads, and Lots of them. My Personal Record is 1k Toads, and thats because I went from place to place running. You'll need plenty of HE/SRS/Anti's and toads if you want to keep run forever. Honestly, Running feels like power hungry, but 10x worse. Just like real life, you dont want to run around while drunk...you'll crash into people. And Honestly, I dont like running......I love it .

So if the current rate is based on 30%, is that 30% our max EMU? If So that means the more EMU we have the less food we have to eat, correct? So then what will be the max rate at which food is consumed, up to 2 food every 1 step? Very easily. After a while you get used to it. It requires you to pay attention OR Learn better multitasking skills.

I bid 61kgc

MoPs go for 3 to 4k, that price is pretty steady, but Its probably going to increase. IF lenny furs = 2k each, then total cost for 12 pots = 6k. 6k/12 = 500gc each. For them to be below 3k, lenny furs have to cost less. Less cost = more furs in market.

It should, the law of supply and demand says So. More people hunt lenny, more furs in market, more Pots. I dont think MoPs would be a restriction though for the price. For most trips I carry 20 Toads, 16 HE, Full mana, 1 SR, 1 Anti. Honestly, I think the food usage prevents any old jack and harry from using it (which is a good thing). Why do you think everyone on the server isnt running? Price? The fact you cant go AFK for most things? You can still AFK harv high end flowers, but you just gotta time it.
