Title: I would like to see a new ring...
Post by DragonZero on 03/08/03 at 16:24:22
I would like to see a ring that doubles the gold u earn from enemies...but has someside effects like ur str goes down or something along those lines...ive seen this type of item in so many rpgs there's no getting away from it...plus it will help all the little clans start out...

This will be a bigger advantage for the bigger clans also.. they're rich enough and pk enough.. we don't need to go helping them out any by making a item that will get you more gold. I don't think this should happen. You make gold the hard way or the easy way by killing rats in the sewers. Ahh, Some other people may like this idea.. *shrugs*

also, if it doubled gold from pks, they can just stick 1mil on a crit and pk it - thus getting an extra 1mil instantly - and then repeat :(

sorry, selene, but he said "doubles the gold you get from monsters", not double the gold you get from pking.

i agree with this it would be a good addition to the new cities...

this would be a big help to ppl that dont know the way around, or have a very hard time getting gold together.

i am not really worried if this goes either way, but having it around couldn't be a bad thing. 8)

Even if it was only on monsters, they could send a crit with 1 mil gold, have him die from a black bear (or any creature) then kill the monster and come back with 2 mil gold.
Sorry Dragon, but I highly think this ring (or anything like it for that matter) will be put into the game.

even if that, ice, the fact is there is always ways to use the system.. that is similar to thieves "power training" by giving a crit alot of gold, lettin it die and stealing from the monster for exp... big whoop.

Even better, let it take 2 or 3 points of each of your stats and cut your hp/mp by 25%. Then let it double gold.


E.G.
Library info for Beggar's Charm:
Armor base: -20, Can be worn by: clerics, druids, fighters, mages, paladins, rangers, thieves, Description: The Beggar's Charm is a cursed ring which can boost your Gold income, however it was cursed by a Wizard who believed Gold is the Source of all Evil, therefore letting you get gold easier with at an extreme expense of your body., Level needed to equip it: 1, Strength modifier: -3, Intelligence modifier: -3, Dexterity modifier: -3, Constitution modifier: -3, Wisdom modifier: -3, Charisma modifier: -3, Hit Points Modifier: 0.25, Mana Points Modifier: 0.25, Gold Modifier: 2.

(Off-topic) What about items that add a percentage or take a percentage of HP and MP???

I actually agree with this, but there should be a block on how much money you can double. Say example max of 2k a thingy. I know that I'm a real stickler for not being able to make money... so if there was a way I could make money I would love it. So bring on the ring! ::)

this idea is rubbish. there is an insane amount of gold in circulation already and an infinite amount of gold will be added to it. in addition to that, a ring of that type would require a quest or somewhat related area to accompany it. items are as complex and fancy as they need to be. all that remains is for them to become more numerous and diverse.

this is rediculous

Im glad so many ppl took this idea seriously i havent thought it all out yet so dont get mad at me for suggesting it and yes i think there should be a max on how much u can double, and im also glad someone took the time to give the description of a ring i only suggested... :)

hmm no offence but even with it doubling 2k you can get gold really fast. jsut kill some bears with 2k on them lol. it takes like let's say 1 minute to get a lvl 1 to a bear and have it be killed by the bear. then it takes  30 secs to kill the bear. so you could make like 75k (just a guess there) an hour that's still alot of gold for doing nothing :D

I personally do not like this idea, there are so many ways around this to make huge amounts of gold in no time, which there is already too much of. Gold as it is now is insanely easy to get, so there really isn't a need to make it even easier to obtain.

I like the idea of HP and Mana modifiers for items - used in severe moderation.

Make it the monsters natural gold only doubled, not gold the monster gains from killing/theiving from people. So the orc (100) that kills a person holding 1000, is killed and gives 1200 gold (100 normal gold, 1000 from the dead person, 100 bonus from the ring)

As for the mp/hp mods, make them decreacers only, hp/mp increacing items sound a bit diablo'y

Post by DragonZero on 03/09/03 at 21:21:59
Ok now Alicia has a good idea only double the standard gold the monster would originally give...say like the Mutant rat giving instead of an average of 30 make it 60+whatever else to rat had on it...

nah i think that this would be a bad idea cause any person with the ring could be amazingly powerful cause they would be able to buy anthing that they wanted (crits, armours, amulets, rings and the cobalt staff of the winds (10 mil)) and not only would they be able to do all that they would also be able to become the number 1 ranking person on the game cause they would just get loads and loads of gold

and obviously, what none have you though about, is if someone wore 4 of these rings. Also, why in the hell would someone where something that makes them weaker? And also, i would like to tell you to get off the diablo kick, no one is copying anything from anything.

If you could kill something with a statline of 9 6 8 9 6 6....

Title: Re: I would like to see a new ring...
Post by DragonZero on 03/11/03 at 13:57:05
Well if u had a statline like that...pking u would be easy so that makes up for all the gold because ppl would come and take it away from you no questions asked...
