A thought for the donation bin.... unlimited use tools and bags of common supplies.

Unlimited use tools no. We'd want something to be perishable if it normally has charges. Tools are inexpensive and easily obtainable anyways.

Common supplies are in high demand as well.

I would donate $10 for a no limit shovel, perhaps $20+ for a no limit gargy pick.

And before you say that would ruin the economy, everyone makes their own shovels anyways.

Wouldn't ruin shit all. I'm talking basic tools like sewing kits, pens, blow pipes etc. I'd shell out $5-10 for the no limit items. I think most ppl would.

This is my point. It wouldn't provide any benefit at all, just a less tedious experience.

Are Hellsteeds and Red Deaths tamable or controllable?

None of the above. Both are undead so cannot be allured. Red death's a quest monster (Eventually be converted to a kill/collect quest with new resolve's bridles).

Hellsteeds are animates. You can ride them but they won't last (Only exceptional is the "grizzled" mare which is a special drop off the monstrous interred grizzle).

So what about the wild hellsteeds?

um, just had a thought.

cutting.

how come you can skin a corpse and loot a corpse from a certain distance(2)...but you can't cut the hides at that same distance(1)??

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:2851, old post ID:22522

Okay... guess thats a hard question.

Here is another one: Have you guys been messing with the loot from Wights?

Haven't touched wights for over a year. Is there something funny about the loot packs?

Guess that's just the way it's always been. Haven't much thought about it. It all depends on how many tiles the original coders (RUNUO) gave it.

Yeah I used to get decent items every 2-3 wights.... haven't gotten shit all from them today and I've killed 15 or so.

Ya, they haven't been touched recently so you're probably just getting the crap end of the property list on your loot.

I get the same thing from rat archers. While I am down doing a baracoon, if I check 1 rat corpse it will have a 5 mod/100% intensity item. Its always crap, like a 100 luck, 50 hit area, 100 lower req on a bow or crook. But then I start checking more corpses and the mods are like 4lrc, 7 hit spell, 5 hld...

What is this?

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:2851, old post ID:22606

Boundary. People trying to use a house placement script I believe. Boy, are they in for a rude awakening. Red can give you more details

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:2851, old post ID:22607

Was someone near there at the time? Does sound like someone was trying to place a house on top of that one for whatever reason. That happened to be the first item blocking so it just "highlights" it to show what is blocking placement.

People STILL don't realize that idoc house placement scripts do not work here.

I know you can combine Powder of Fortification, is there anything else that can be combined like this? Runics for example?

Nope, not yet at least.

18 tailor quests done

1 horned
2 spined
15 plain

1 60k cheque
1 10k cheque
16 200-1000gp cheque

1 srsk
4 single use pof (these are still in!??!)
1 bear rug
3 sandals



conclusion: it was much better before.

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:2851, old post ID:22654

all in all today I've made 350k doing tailor quests, 1 ten use brsk, 7 goddamn useless srsk, like.. 9 one use PoF, 10 sandals and maybe 2000 coloured cloth. edit: and 2 bear rugs

I miss the mass amounts of bods that i would get in several orders. i miss getting 3-5 hrsk and 2-3 brsk when i go on runs like these...

the gold is an improvement, but more leather for less payoff isn't

You're not supposed to be able to get 2 or 3 barbed kits per day. The rewards you're getting right now are organized in a similar fashion to the way bods used to be (Those bod deeds and junk). The difference? A questing system with waaaay better odds of getting the good prizes (We can probably get rid of the 1 use POF though and make it 3 or 5 or something. That prize is kind of a tease).

What wrong with spined kits? Sell em off or make something with them (Luck armor). Make some new player armor and sell it on a vendor or something. If you can't use it, you can find somebody who will.

Leather is easy to get. 300 barbed leather is literally less than 10 minutes in destard fel with a skinning knife. 2000 colored cloth is normal considering you can buy hides off a tanner and just cut them (So less than 4 minutes to complete that type of quest).

If leather weren't so easy to get, I may agree with what you're saying but I don't follow you on this one.

fair enough.

put it to ya this way... I got used to getting good rewards, then it was 'nerfed' to be harder.

as long as i can still get brsk and hrsk...


kinda like west nile crows when i first started, they had amazing loot, then some one decided a creature that could be killed with a single fireball shouldn't have a dragons hoard of treasure on its little bird-corpse. I was pissed at first... then I got used to the way it should be.

Well we're used to that now.

Obviously if something is too easy to get, like killing a west nile crow and getting a horde of loot VS killing something harder and getting less loot, something is flawed there.

The bods were the same idea. At first they were giving too many high end rewards, then they were giving too many low end rewards. Now it appears to be balanced out and the missing prizes have been put in.
