  1. Mini Harv Events

    Well, that's just what you've said - because of some people the honest majority will need to spend more time to accomplish what they planned to. For some perhaps it was already taking long, now it is longer. So I ask myself a question whether I'd be able to afford even more time now than in the past just for harvesting.
  2. Mini Harv Events

    Oh, so you think that other games don't have it because it's so advanced that no one else though about implementing it, huh? What I think some people choose to play EL because they can blend harvesting with doing other things. This is natural, since serious EL projects require large number of resources. What game? Eve? In Talisman Online, you are exchanging so called soul points for experience and energy that are being given to you for a time spent offline (just example, not saying this is good or bad). How about doing the same test while actually paying attention to what you harvest? Just go look at my sto and tell me how the hell I could harvest all this stuff without actually paying attention, huh ? Or better yet, get average player's emu and see how much let's say iron you can mine per hour. I guess a lesson of harving ings for 10k steel bars would be a good one as well - many players do such projects, a few even exceed that tenfold ...
  3. Mini Harv Events

    Great, let me know when you do find it. If I had a unique feature that distinguish my game from all the crowd I'd value and protect it. As a side note - there are online mmorpg games where by using a special feature you are getting exp when being offline, so afk is not that bad Well, just to be constructive - I play just one character and I have compared harving my efficiency now with events to the one before the update. To be fully representative it should have been repeated a number of times with different astro, but anyway - my today's trial on iron (several hours) has ended up with 67% of what I used to mine in the same time. It will certainly improve a bit when harv effect bug is gone, but anyway it is quite significant drop of productivity. A subjective feeling is that every harv session now is like the increased harv events day combined with the highest harv astro, on diamonds We'll see how it goes after the next update when the rate of the events will hopefully change a bit.
  4. EL trailer script

    Half of the script is devoted to professions, that's a bit misleading since EL does not encourage to specialize in just one. I believe the script could use some short scenes on: - developing char (a sequence when player gains OA/lvl and a screenshot of statistics) - guilds - building wealth (partially included already - but a sequence showing for instance gear progression from naked char to ice dragon armor could be impressive) - very short highlight of instances, unique creatures, bots, horses, mules, custom capes, guildmaps, etc. - perhaps a shot or two of Bloodsucker maps in between scenes ? As you can see I'd make it less generic, with more highlight on stuff that attracts people to the particular game
  5. Small storage sale

    Rapier waits for a pickup Added some new items - steel plate, camo cape, night visors, etc.
  6. Small storage sale

    sure, ty
  7. Small storage sale

    38k for all? sure, ty
  8. Cornucopia Perk

    Taking into account that I have found 6 rostogol stones in 2.345.752 harvestables removing all chances to find one is of no importance really.
  9. Ozmondius the serper

    Today, at NW Melinis spawn: [19:45:56] Ozmondius: i'd like to have 1 of these spawns please [19:46:12] Cruella: aren't there any other free in Mel ? [19:46:23] Ozmondius: not that i could find As you can see I had few seconds to reply (being busy with dcw and fluff) - too long apparently for such important person to wait for reply. A honorable guild leader decided to heal dcw I was fighting, apparently trying to help it to kill me. Well, no chance really, I just had to restore. [19:46:45] You recovered 228 material points I killed the chim. [19:46:55] Ozmondius: you're just serping them anyway I was training as plenty others on this spawn, using tit long to kill one creature before second respawns (everyone knows this is the most efficient way there). Not that it is any of his business anyway what I'm doing in game and what weapon I use, if any. [19:46:56] Cruella: why do you serp ? [19:47:05] Ozmondius: i asked for one of the spawns nicely, did i not? Sure, without even waiting for reply, starting to fight first and heal next dcw I was fighting. Very polite request. [19:47:08] Cruella: that's hostile and outlaw action [19:47:26] Ozmondius: then you proceeded to att both again [19:48:01] Cruella: I tell you what, cure your complexes somewhere else [19:48:02] Ozmondius: i did look around before i asked Poor babe, cannot find a free spawn lol .... must steal from others Can fight yetis, all other chims, cockas, yet has to steal ... a fluff or dcw ! ROFL ! [19:48:19] Ozmondius: i need only 29k def and then i'll be gone [19:49:11] Cruella: you know what, I do not care, you are acting like a person with no game morals, I could not care less about a spawn [19:49:14] Ozmondius: cruella, which spawn would you prefer [19:49:21] Ozmondius: the dc or the bunny? [19:49:32] Cruella: have both, the game is full of spawns [19:49:46] Ozmondius: you're such a baby [19:49:58] Cruella: you are such an ass As I said to him, I could not care less about the spawn, if he waited and gave me time to reply, there wouldn't be any discussion, nor problem, nor this post. I know this guy for over a year and he has changed enormously, to worse unfortunately. I'm posting this in a hope he'll think over his behaviour, comes to his senses and starts to behave again like a honorable player. Shame really, shame.
  10. Mini Harv Events

    Idea is good, implementation a little overdone. It gets old very, very fast. After three loads of iron with over 50 events, these lose a novelty and become just annoyance. One way to improve would be to make more varieties of events (+1 or - 1 harvestable, increase/decrease in harving speed for x turns, getting a piece of absolutely different harvestable, etc.) or decreasing the rate they appear slightly.
  11. Ozmondius the serper

    Just to clarify, I'd share with him no problem, but he did not give me a chance. He waited a FULL MINUTE (it was less than that but nvm, let it be one minute lol) - what a generosity. Perhaps I was typing pm to someone else? Perhaps sipping coffee? Perhaps reading ch6 msgs? What differs us is that at the same spawn a day before I have waited for 20 minutes for another player to finish his training to take over, chatting with him. I'd never heal the creature someone trains on without asking first. I'd never attack the one someone else fights already. I could take another one if no reply for repetitive requests to share (bear in mind I stopped training in about 90 seconds after he came so when asking which one he can have, both were available and I was no longer training). That's a difference in understanding of player relationships and importance of exp vs behaviour. I understand views may vary here and we have to share these lands with people who represent standards other than ours, that doesn't mean however I'm obliged to like and to accept actions that in my opinion make this game less enjoyable and the ones I'd never perform to other player. It is not about a spawn, not about serping, not about getting exp. Do you have a clue what this was about? Thanks for useful reminder, Happy Easter
  12. Ozmondius the serper

    That's how I see it. EOT from my side. I'm sure mods will judge whether this post breaks any rule and if this is a case to take appropriate action, even without above suggestion.
  13. Serping spawns

  14. Ozmondius the serper

    It was simple question, not arrogant. Because I KNEW there was a free spawn in Mel. Just a moment before he came I have killed another wandering chim that came to my spawn. But whether there was one or not, it is irrelevant. Attacking a creature someone already fights is serping. Healing without asking is ... well .... depends on the context, situation and intentions. Here it was clearly hostile action to interrupt my training. If he was fair, and so desperate to get his sorry xp, he'd attack fluff, while leaving me with my chim alone. Then there wouldn't be any reason for conflict or calling him serper etc. Anyway Paul, great job as an advocate, but do not try to make a living as one I've done my part, leaving the log for everyone to read and to make their own opinion. Not going to waste more time for that.
  15. Ozmondius the serper

    OMG, reading with understanding doesn't hurt I'm saying that before I managed to let him take one of two, he started to fight the one I was engaged with (not the other) AND heal it to cause my char to die lol Quite a difference. I've got over it immediately, leaving him with his steal That doesn't change a fact that I'd like to perhaps get him to think a bit (hopefully) because I remember him being nice person and I do not like seing what has happened to him. Perhaps naive and not efficient, but worth trying ...
  16. Up to 40k of silver, diamonds and white asiatic lillies plus 12k bones waiting for a brave mixer. Get over 1 million of alchemy exp for free. PM me if interested, thanks.
  17. Trading my Artificial removal

    Edit: Traded successfully.
  18. progressive taxation

    The game is full of money sinks already. I bet you have nothing to target.
  19. progressive taxation

    The purpose of a tax is to collect money in order to use them elsewhere for a good cause. Don't see any good cause here. Hiilarious that an author has been caught in his own snares: Ok, so you suggest to possibly to reduce gold farming by forcing people to farm even more gold, interesting.
  20. I seriously doubt gc's bought for $ are being used mostly to buy rostos in game. So the scenario you've presented above is based on false assumption. However, so called "small rosto" idea presented some time ago was a good one and seems to be worth revisiting.
  21. EL Polls

    More polls for Polish gold...ennnnn.....farm....errrr....memb...errrs \o/
  22. Gold membership

    Perhaps you should change the rules on character selling to consignment. You get a percentage of the sale with the bonus knowlege of which characters are being transfered to whom. I've seen interestingg solution in another game - they have a website where you can put on sale for $ any game item / character. The transfer is being done by the game staff so that largely reduces a risk of scam. The game owner gets 5-10% commission on any transaction. No other $ trades are theoretically allowed (although they are unavoidable of course and surely happen).
  23. Some game!

    When you make lvl 10, start Eternal Lands clan
  24. Some game!

  25. What Services would you be willing to pay for ?

    I believe mostly the things that cannot be traded in game can bring a profit to Radu. Everything that can be traded in game will be still subject to lose its value due to gold farming. For this reason I have voted for the only benefit that is not directly transferrable - new races.
