  1. It WOULD be nice to have more use for Amber... :lurker:

    No it would not. Amber is also being used in engineering, and engineers have pretty much started a price-war making it hard to get the amber for the global done.

    If you have a stockpile, please consider taking it to Hyutan for the global. Otherwise I fear that we will no longer get global quests done at all.

    Remember that not everyone can harvest amber, it needs a very high nexus. If you stay on 24/7 you can get at most 10 amber a day, a global quest is valid for 10 days, When I donate ALL the amber I harvested in that time, it is still only about 100 amber. And I would like to use a few for invances too :P

     

    Couldn't agree more


  2.  

    Think it should be a medallion bought in shop rather than a ring, This means if you want to take advantage of it you need to wear it.

     

    I really, really like this idea. your accuracy and armor to be protected on death. Possibily make it have a 33% chance to dissappear upon death, that could make it, hmmm... 50000/3=16666.66 - so around about 17kgc, which would still be realtively tough for newbies, but easier than the current situation

     

    I don't think a ring (or other item) which needs special activation will be helpful. Especially as new player, you're dead on first strike, thus you won't have a chance to activate anything. It needs to work - whatever it is - like the existing rosto without special activation.

     

    I agree, look at what i suggested above :)

     

    And of course it need be pink, I couldn't bear seeing a crying Grort ;-)

     

    xD


  3. I like solarstars idea (except the bit about magic less dependant on attris, just saw that, i've got a confused semi-combat, semi-magic build, and take reasoning because i want to increase my magic capabilities, and also hit because my coord is maxed), but i still hope that magic will only be as effective as ranging/summoning, so you have 3 extra skills for combat over a/d, and do not feel like you need to go for a specific one because its much better than the others.


  4. Just a tip for the people in the lower part of the range, tag along with a couple stronger people, and as they tackle to more difficult mobs, the ones you can't kill, stick around them and kill the weaker mobs that come close, preventing to strong killers from receiving the multi-defense penalty and still keeping yourself relatively safe... until mulitple tough stuff appear :)

     

    #EDIT# Added more tips

     

    On the matter of weapons, i have found that using a SoP can be very useful when entering a new range in melee. I've seen people use FA with fist to kill PWs, but i prefered using Radioactive longsword+FA on them for a 1 hit kill. In the lower ranges (4060) very useful to hit the monsters that where difficult to hit (i often used a rapier on WTs and fluffies in 4060, then swapped back to cutty for rest of mobs)

     

    Armor wise, just get the best kit you can, as soon as you can, and remember to keep stocked up with rostos so that if you do die, you can quickly tele ring back into the frey.

     

    And one last tip: i like to begin dissing from a mob at 75 ethereal left, manually, to preserve my dis rings for the heavier prey (giants and yeti atm), so if i begin to get clobbered by an MCW with noone around to help, i'll begin to manually flee from 75 EP, and if i still haven't got away with 25EP left, i dis and run from it (usually towards gate, or a usually quickly cleared area - such as docks)

     

    Hope this helps


  5. I think implement it so you don't get xp, and i like the idea of fighting arena list of games, maybe make it possible to choose a small map (1v1 Arenas. possibly based on Egratia Magic School or a copy of Theli Tarvern) and larger maps for team games.

     

    I don't know much about programming, but i assume that there would be a limit of these maps (much as there are a limit of invance/instance maps that can be used simultaneously)

     

    Be nice to have a safe haven for us lower lvled people to have friendly fights (yes, to the death) for fun without having the higher lvls come and ruin it :)
