  1. Hi my name is Slash_Master (ign) and i have been working a lot on manufacturing. I think im at a point where i can offer to sell some of the stuff i can make. Now I am only lvl 20 manu so I cant yet make any high level items but for newer people i can offer Aug armors, Iron/Steel shileds, and lower level swords at a cheap price. I also harvest and smelt all of my own materials so I can sell cheaper than most. Just post here your ign, what you want, and a price (I will be coming up with a price list later) and Ill see if I can make it for you.

    Its not hard to walk, but it is annoying. Especially with the walking mechanics this game has. You are slower than most of the creatures and take a second to change directions. You have to depend on the creature stopping to catch up to it. Not only that having to be close to the creature and not auto walking to it adds nothing to the game, it just makes it annoying to fight (which for a lot of ppl fighting is the main part of the game for them), so it takes away some of the fun from the game. Also it can be very discouraging for new players who have a bad time chasing bunnies in Isla Prima.

     

    The bolded part is wrong: you walk just as fast as the creatures, be it a rabbit or a leopard (or faster with speed hax or horse). And automatically walking to the spot where the creature was when you tried to attack it wouldn't really help with catching it faster...

     

    Oh it seems like im slower xD And i dont mean walking to the spot where they were. I mean when you hit attack you go to the creature no matter where he moves. Ofc you would stop the hunt when the creature is out of ur sight, which would make perception even more important to have. Same would go for resources. If you click harvest you walk to the closest available spot to harvest the resource.


  3. I think that price adjustment for the npc based one supply and demand might be a cool feature to add. Also maybe capping the amount of an item an npc can sell based on stock. So lets say an npc only has 1 tit armor in stock he will buy/sell it at a higher price than if he has 10-15. And if he only has one in stock he can only sell one. If he isnt moving his product the price should start to drop in an effort to sell it (even if he has to take a loss). Ofc there would have to be a cap as to how low he gets on an item. Idk rough idea but i think it would be pretty cool. Ofc it might work better in a more populated game.


  4. No problem. That would fall under bag trading, and is now allowed, as is normal trading between you and your alt.

     

    Note that this does not mean that in invasion your strong (over cap) alt can save the bags of your weaker (under cap) alts, but that's not rule 5, but a capped invasion rule (no interference of characters over the cap)

    Gotchya, tyvm. So was that part in rule 28 that i made bold and underlined just overlooked by the mods? Or since rule 5 is gone there is not such thing as "illegal multiplaying" anymore so that part has not power anymore.


  5. Srry for double post but i would like to ask this question. Usually i would have my cousin bag sit for me while i harvest stuff. Can i now use an alt to do this for me so i dont have to depend on him (he doesnt have internet at his dads house which is ironic bc of us two I use to be the one without internet xD). Keep in mind my alt isnt muleing or harvesting for me. He is simply sitting on the bag for me while my main is gone. He may occasional take an ore out and bak in to keep the bag from disappearing.

     

    Edit: Read through the rules again

     

    28. Do Not Cheat.

    Cheating in the game means using outdated or illegal clients, outdated or illegal unofficial map(.elm) files that have been altered from the official versions, unregistered and/or unapproved bots, macroing, automating, scripting, exploiting bugs, or any form of illegal multi-playing. Any attempts to seek loopholes or manipulate information to get around these rules is grounds for banning. Anyone knowingly aiding cheaters will also be locked and/or banned.


  6. Sheesh! Is it really that hard to take a step or two more before you attack or click to harvest?

     

    Just click so You walk up to the creature You are about to attack and when You are about 5 tiles (iirc) away from it click it and You will attack.

    Most harvestables in EL has several spots they can be harvested at so that's not an issues at all, if one of them would be packed with harvesting Alts just go to the other (although the chance of that happening is slim to none so wouldn't worry about it..).

    Imo intermediate players shouldnt have tit armors. W/O a cap only top level players can buy Top level gear. Couldnt the NPCs cap the price of materials instead? That would drop the price of manu goods. Or are they already doing this?

     

    Plz forgive my lack of knowledge on the game itself. Idk whos sells what at wat price. But i am pretty knowledgeable about economies and such so i like participating in convos like this :)

     

     

    Correct. Intermediate players don't need titanium sets or 200k gc armor sets.

    NPCs sell raw materials such as iron at a very high price so that you don't buy ings at will, mix and sell for profit without breaking a sweat. It is encouraged to buy raw materials from other players or harvest them yourself.

    Expensive bars such as hydro are capped by NPC at 15k so yes, there is some sort of cap already :)

    But there are ingredients like enriched essences, binding stones and serpent stones that are only obtained by accident or bought for real money. Their market price depends on availability.

    If you search for Enriched fire Essence here http://bots.el-services.net/search.php

    there aren't any on sale (at this particular minute) and those are needed to manufacture titanium armor sets. So if I need a titanium set right now, I can just buy it from NPC instead of waiting for Enriched essences to appear on bots to make a new titanium set :)

     

    Ah i see, and yea i searched the NPCs on the wiki and saw that they do sell raw materials. Hydrobars, aren they the bars that are used to buy nexuses?


  8. It could be changed, but I don't want to, makes things too easy.

    Meh its just irritating to fight the way it is now. When fighting, having to walk close to the creature doesnt add anything to the experience, just takes away from it. As for harvesting, its not that big of a deal, but if this game ever saw a raise in popularity or people start harvesting with lots of alts with the repeal of rule 5 then it may become difficult to get to popular resource spots. But thats just my two cents, im a manu mostly atm so it doesnt really effect me all that much.


  9. I think that would be a very bad idea. NPC prices provide a cap. On the contrary, more items should be sold by NPC.

    Roman, you should be looking at things from everyone's point of view.

    Titanium sets are good and reliable training armor. If you remove them from NPC, you are killing the intermediate players who need the cap.

    Without NPC prices, only the top level people can buy things.

    Same thing is with HEs for example. New to intermediate buy it from NPC for 9gcs each. Top players can't care less. They buy it for 10 to 11 or same. These are the same people who buy dragon sets. That's why NPC doesn't sell dragon sets.

    If you remove price caps to satisfy your own game but hurt the common player, you are hurting the economy.

    Greed is a bad thing. There is already a lot of work for manuers due to daritha.

    Okay idk exactly whats being discussed here and even tho ive been playing the game off and on for years I still havent touched most of the content. But there are a few things i would like to point out.

  10. Is there a reason that when you click the fight button on a creature, or the harvest button on a resource, etc, thats far away we get that message instead of the character automatically getting close enough or automatically hunting down the creature where ever it goes? Imo this would make the game play much more user friendly and therefor enjoyable. I was gonna suggest it but this game is like 10 years old, im sure it has been suggested many times b4 and there has to be a reason the Devs havent added it.


  11. Holy... I cant believe rule 5 is actually gone. My cousin and I had our characters banned years and years ago bc we were trading on the same IP and they thought we were illegal multiplaying. Ever since then we have been scared to do anything together while in the same house.


  12. Umm i tried to get on Slash_Master today and it said my ip was banned. I have been palying off and on for a long time now (years) and i jus got back on 2 days ago for the first time in a long time. All i did was harvest iron ore so idk why i could have been banned. So if i could get an explanation that would be great


  13. my cousin corey (slashy) and I (Slash_Master) old char were banned years ago. since the weve create and played on ou new char (names which ar in () in first sentence. i gave him a fur cloke and maybe some other suff and it wa take as illegal multi b/c we were on thesame ip. This time we are takeing precautions to make sure it dosnt happen again so we kept the tradeing at a minamum and did on diff ips and are hopeing to prov that we are diff ppl so we wont have o worry about being banned. First im gonna explane my story. I dont have iternet at my house but i ocasonlly go to my gmas in gordensville va and my step gmas houe in va beach where i play the geme. Iaso ocasionally play at school. And finally i play when i go to my cousins house i play. Today 12/25/09 i am at my step gmas house in va beach and have been since wed 12/23/09 and will be here untill sat 12/26/09. if you can look at a log of our two char. you will see that we have been playing on2 diff ips at the same time since thursday 12/24/09. i will be either going to my gmas house or cousins house in orange va. during the week of mon 12/28/09. If i g o my cousins house i would like to be able to trade w/him so i would love if we can settle this matter asap. Any questions feel free to ask. thank you for your time.
