Entropy Report post Posted November 7, 2007 Read the thread before voting, and think a little before voting like a bovine, ok? As you might remember, there was a poll about it a while ago, where the question asked was: Would you like to make the NMT breakable (1/40K chance), and slightly increase the chance of getting one? At the time, more than half were against this idea, so I came up with a new idea: How about I make the NMT degradable first? The degraded version would be identical in functionality to the normal one, and would have the same breaking rate and stuff. In effect, this would make the NMT breaking rate 1/80K, which I think it's pretty small. Last time I checked (yesterday), there were ~450 NMTs in the game, a pretty big number. So, would you like to make it breakable as explained here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ShYne Report post Posted November 7, 2007 Yes, I think it should be breakable because too many noobs are lvl'ing fast wearing good armors and fighting strong monsters using the NMT. It's easier for a person to get in the top 10 now then it was 2 year ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dchels Report post Posted November 7, 2007 No i should remain unbreakable, people voting yes will be those that havnt paid 400k for one, bit unfair really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ermabwed Report post Posted November 7, 2007 Quick question: would this be with increased drop rate or without? (Obviously drop rate wouldn't need to be increased as much as planned for "old suggestion" of breakrate 1/40k.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Istiach Report post Posted November 7, 2007 If you make it breakable, people will stop using it. And the number of claoks wount decrease at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MistickIce Report post Posted November 7, 2007 (edited) I thought it was a great idea on the 1st poll. Yes I do have NMT perk but thats for pk reasons when I get high enough to kill the things that drop it I will probably do another reset and get rid of perk (I voted Yes) (Edit) P.S. I use to have NMT cloak but gave it away when I got perk __Icy__ Edited November 7, 2007 by Icy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Khalai Report post Posted November 7, 2007 I know, that people will hate me, call me names and probably hang me on VotD lantern, but still I have to ask. Shouldn't degraded (let's name it "Worn NMT cape" for example) be slighly less efficient at protecting equipment? Just a question of logic, since degraded swords and armor are slighly less powerful as their originals. Ok, question placed, now I'm gonna find rope and hang myself on that lantern, before half the community does... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maslicka Report post Posted November 7, 2007 (edited) last time i voted yes,i still didnt change mind so i vote yes,i think its good idea to have degradable nmt....every item that goes to game need also way how to leave the game to keep economic..dont count brod it isnt reliable there must come some way to get nmt out of game,sooner or later.... Cyberwulf Posted Today, 08:52 PM No, just paid a lot gc for it, that is not fair! sad.gif life is never fair...and game isnt also,why did you pay 400kgc for a cloak that costed 60kgc once? lol Edited November 7, 2007 by Maslicka Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The_Piper Report post Posted November 7, 2007 No i should remain unbreakable, people voting yes will be those that havnt paid 400k for one, bit unfair really. Correct, i bought mine when it was like 150k gc and got another one from fluffy \o/ Unbreakable items in an endless game are never a good idea, now we have 450 in game, next year 1000 and in 2 years we are dropping them on IP for the newbies. So its a "Yes" from me Piper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mortek Report post Posted November 7, 2007 Althought is seem pretti interesting, I see costs higher than benefits at least for players. So voted no. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted November 7, 2007 If you make it breakable, people will stop using it. And the number of claoks wount decrease at all. Agreed The same way they don't use their thermal serpents which have twice as high of a breaking rate, right? Anyway, if people don't use it, that's good for the economy, more broken items.

LabRat Report post Posted November 7, 2007 I voted yes - this will have a nice effect on the economy and their resale values. Why? Because buying one NMT is actually the same as buying two, which can only drive the price up further Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DragonStorm Report post Posted November 7, 2007 I voted no as without the cape the game will get bloody expensive due to armour breaking all the while, so with this in mind it might push people out of the game and would you want that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Istiach Report post Posted November 7, 2007 I have a question. you already tried this earlier afaik. why do u think it would work now? (i mean the nmt change) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LilBear Report post Posted November 7, 2007 (edited) Shouldn't degraded (let's name it "Worn NMT cape" for example) be slighly less efficient at protecting equipment? Just a question of logic, since degraded swords and armor are slighly less powerful as their originals. See, Entropy COULD have made that suggestion, but instead he's already accommodating us by saying it has to break twice to be really gone. The fast that a "degraded" NMT cloak performs just as well as an original one is a wonderful gift and encouragement to vote YES here. Of course the cloak should be breakable, at some rate, see the "dropping on IP for newbies" comment someone made. There is no challenge when everyone has everything, and over time it will certainly seem that way. 450 cloaks... if those hording them sold all theirs, who would still buy all the iron and steel bars the lower level alchers are selling? lilcnoot Edit: Lmao at Ent's computer comment. Yeah, down with progress! Edited November 7, 2007 by LilBear Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
