I'll do an eBay thing and bid at the last minute.

*stamp* *stomp* <squish> looks good

Plate is good for training, because it gives MUCH more armor AND lowers your critical hit rate. Lower critical hit rate means more exp per monster. It sucks to get hit by thermal with plate on though. I didn't mention anything about Plate. My point was the lack of significant difference from Steel chain --> Tit Chain.

The thing about tit chain is that its 5-7. Steel Chain is 3-7. An overall difference of 2. I think it should be a bit higher

My point is that as more people come in and make more EFEs and more cuis/greaves; prices WILL drop because those items are more common and there will be more competition to sell them (a factor in the price drop). But as Entropy said, prices of items change over time...can't wait for those new items.

I'll start with 1k

I'll buy all of this please.

6-7k was always a ripoff in my opinion. Having it lowered to 2-3k is much more feasible. Ever considered how much greaves/cuisses was back then in relation to the price of EFEs? The price difference wasn't much, so the lowering of EFE prices are down to a decent price now. Raising the price of the store might stop them coming in, but what about the ones in circulation? And the ones found?

5k Iron ore.

I personally don't enter those player contests unless its someone I know and respect (and have a good rep). If its #bc contest I might enter it if the prizes are decent (I don't beam to IP when Piper drops stuff...anymore) No chat log for this fake contest? edit: I remember him last night trying to sell a char on a channel lol

This has happened to me loads of times in the lands of Irilion, and its not the only spot on C2 that has them. The trick is to carry teleport essences if you don't want to bother the nice moderators.

The amount of times I've been followed in contests is bad enough. I spend more of my time trying to lose them rather then the contest thing! So so far I'm not too keen on this idea, maybe if the person was on my buddy list then maybe.

Is this fitboyjim or fatboy? In either case, he's alright...maybe supports the wrong team but nobodys perfect.

In addition! A black and white skunk stripped torso (veritical lines) would be great! Snow Leopard torsos, Panda outfits and/or White Tiger clothes would be a great addition too.

sure. I go Hulda all the time. I slip by the ACs like a ninja in the night.

Not really... I agree - But foremost, keep jokers (c1 and c2) separate until joker gets more improvements. I'd love for him to drop a wider variety of items and having riddles or whatever feasible interesting suggestions.

Can I mix ess? 1k Energy and 1k Air essences pretty please, with cream and sugar on top

Yes, ok. I only meant its relation to RL in terms of getting products sold. Retail outlets, stores, e-commerce...they all offer cheaper and cheaper items to get it sold. If one of them stops to say, "oh why are you selling product x for price z? you're destroying the market", another will turn around and say "thats business, get a better marketing strategy". Again, when this happens the consumer wins because of the cheaper items (lets not get started on dumping, regulators and advisory boards shall we? Is only a game). Its only natural for newbies to be poor (maybe not that poor but poor nonetheless), and with experience, comes a wiser head. Perhaps producing levels of quality would add an interesting variety, but would only add to the complexity to this current market. edit: Currently, this market situation, crafters get it bad...they really do. I'm glad to hear that there may be some steps to ameliorate this situation.

Yes! Joker for C2 would be great! -Magpie Campaigner for Equal Rights for Irilion

in the real life, there are actual costs involved. for most of the stuff on the market in EL, you can theoretically have a cost price of 0gc (or approaching 0gc, if you allow for one pickaxe per thousand HE, for example)hence why, while there's a lot of ideas that can come from RL, you can't rely on them working in a game Yes, ok. But what are you trying to say here? If anything, having a cost price of 0gc (or approaching 0gc) means that you can sell anything off higher and catch a profit? Personally I don't sell much. Only a few items here and there and those items have been lowered by aggressive pricing decisions (which I have little complaints about). The only problem I see is that NPCs are buying some items off people at not-so-tasty prices and even then they don't buy everything.

I'll take 7.5k Iron 5k coal too

I'm a consumer, a poor one at that. I've been using both NPCs and Bots and Players in all my transactions. More importantly, I have been known to sell off goods at a low price, I don't do this very often, but isn't that what competition is all about? If anyone has trouble selling stuff, then lower the price or offer benefits and incentives. This happens in real life and I don't see why we are looked upon as 'market destroyers' if we follow the same strategy. In addition, I also welcome people who buy cheaply off me and resell at a higher price, some may say thats not smart, but I think its because I generally hate selling anyway. I'd much rather want to sell to NPCs if they they accepted more items. What exactly is wrong with the market? The idea of a stable market is flawed simply because there is no such thing. International markets skew and sway all the time and as long as there are external forces changing, and new players, it will continue to be that way. The only winner is the consumer, as they'd be able to buy cheaper items.

Damn...I wasn't online.

I think you can set the camera speed control or mouse spinning speed (I can't remember the exact thingabajig). As for spells, I totally agree on the extension of spell range. I thought it would have been extended after the server update but its still not enough. Such spells include Remote Heal, Poison, Harm, Life Drain and Mana Drain. If you're a bit anti about the negative spells then maybe just extend the range of Remote heal. (or increase them all depending on magic level).

I'll take those rat tails for 3 HE
