bigmutha Report post Posted June 22, 2004 it would be nice to be able to harvest mercury and ne thing else that harvy sells, and that is the only place to get it at. i was thinking that we could put the mercury in the "place" in tahrji desert b/c most people do not know exsits and it may be hard to find it. please work on that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Derin Report post Posted June 22, 2004 I think Mercury should be alched and not harvested. Suggested formula: 2 silver ore, 1 matter essence Leather gloves in your inventory Recommended Alchemy: 24 Alchemy exp: 80 Food cost: 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lyanna Report post Posted June 23, 2004 One of the great advantages of having mercury as a buyable-only item is so that it helps to remove money from the game and prevent inflation (which was what had happened last time). Likewise, leather is buyable-only for the same reason. If we make mercury available for harvesting, that means a loss of this function. It won't really matter how hard or how difficult we make access to that mercury be, because it would just be a matter of time before people will be able to harvest it. (Think 3 months down the road...) Therefore, in order to have some control over the economy, it's better for certain items - like mercury, vials, and leather - to be bought from NPCs only. It also serves to make the Antisocial perk actually HAVE some negative consequences... -Lyn- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dont belive me? do a google image search for "Periodic Table Elements" and then click on the 2nd one. 80 is mercury. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derin Report post Posted June 23, 2004 I know goatsgomoo, but as this is a fantasy game.... I suggested alchemy to make it a little less easy to come by than from simple harvesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Puntif Report post Posted June 24, 2004 I think you should be able to harvest cinnabar (mercury ore) and alchemically smelt it. I suppose you could alchemically transmute something else into mercury but I don't like that option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
