PYE's stone of teh Goldfish

[Pyewacket]

Daily quest reset stones summary: upside, you can reset your timer AND the quest type already given by using this stone. downside, if u forgot to cash one in, tough.

 

Roleplay: You found a rare stone marked with a Goldfish, and upon using it, find that the recent memories of some of the NPC around you have been "smudged" over for the past day.

 

Obtained through: Instance drops, approx. same chance as a reward as oranges are currently.

 

Pr0's:

Fighters get a new stone to sell/use as they wish, all other players benefit if they choose to use one as described, allowing the player who uses it to reset their timer on all daily quests, even if they've just completed them. This allows for most people who do dailies to do them again during suntzu, instead of the usual find-a-spawn game. This in turn makes daily quests even more prominent ingame, and since it also means manufacturers will gain more business as a direct consequence (there are many daily manu suppliers these days), as will harvesters (dung, amongst other things), alchemists (2nd tier benefitiary from the results of harvesters IE fe/bars) it's a nice little market prop.

 

On top of which, gc circulates, which is always a good thing. Sick of getting those IP Spiders? No problem, just use one of these and hope you don't get a repeat crop up afterwards.

 

Con's:

If you forgot to cash in your Yeti before you click the stone, because xaquelina sent you to pick sodding lilacs again, you need to post up on forums so we can all have a good laugh at you.

 

"hope you don't get a repeat crop up afterwards"

 

The prices will drop eventually? Nahhh the price may fluctuate a bit at points, but it'll rise significantly during those special extra EXP #days (particularly suntzu!).

 

Chance of being a Drop: Rare, like Orange rare..did you not read above this line or what?

Chances of getting one from Mixing: Sod all, mate. You shouldn't in my opinion.

 

Additional/Optional extra goody special effect: 3% chance the stone doesnt disappear after use. RP: The goldfish effect is so powerful, even the stone forgets it's been used!! This % effect is cumulative with Reconstruction Day.

 

So, bearing in mind the nice boost to the incomes of the players across at least three skills, and the "good for the economy" byline that all of the worst threads ever posted all seem to include, what dya think peeps?

 

EDIT: Added extra effect.

Although sceptical about the degree of positive consequences to be had, I see no negative consequences, and thus support the idea.

Yet another suggestion for something by available only via instances which benefits would trickle down to all. This trickle down economics, also called by voodoo economics by more knowledgeable until it was politically an advantage to flip flop, was disproved.

 

Like the oranges it would add to the rapid inflation in the game.

Or we could call them haidir passes and sell them from the shop.
