tailoring and prices

I understand the prices npc's pay are under review, hope following info is helpful with that.


Item: cloth to make: sale price: Thread to buy 18 gold Takes 5 threads to make one bolt cloth

robe ....... 16 9 gold one bolt cloth makes 50 cloth

cloak ...... 14 4 gold

fancy dress ... 12 12 gold




this is not counting collected wool or cotton.



hope this helps :}

I also agree, I buy hides for 3 gold per hide, it takes 4 hides to make a gorget which is 12 gold total, if i succeed, which at this time i do not as often as i would like. I can sell the leather gorgets for 15 gold, which is a profit, however, I was hoping for more.

thanks so much for your time and efforts looking into this.

I understand about the economy aspect, but crafting items is one way for newer players to earn gold . LOL I bought my first house

tailoring, spent hours in the tailor shop buying thread and sew kits and selling items back to vendor. I don't think this sort of "play" harms the

economy because all my in game time was spent doing this. Thus I was not out fighting monsters. I don't see much difference in

crafting massive amounts of items as any different than someone spending all their in game time in dungeons to earn gold?

I do agree that having the price drop for items should occur after the npc vendor buys a certain amount of that item.

Perhaps the same could be used for monster drops ( if any way to adjust it so only the character would be effected, not the next player to

come and fight) This would also prevent the massive influx of gold .

My belief is unattended macroing should be banned for every type of crafting and resource gathering be it fish, ore, cotton, inscription,

smithing etc.


thanks all :}

cool I think jail time is a very just . I understand more way you explained it.

giant thanks

Please do. I could have signed it 3 times already ^.^

Bookshelves with books you can't remove, but you can read or write in (writing cannot be changed or deleted by another author, or each inmate gets a book per character that only they can write in).

As far as the comparison of dungeon farming to craft farming, if vendors pay less for quantities of the same item, that's a comparable loss to say...ya know....dying and losing all of your gear and the gold you might have made if you survive in the wilds.
It doesn't happen every time, but it happens plenty enough to hit the bank balance.
I don't think any craft should have a chance to make high profits, without branching out beyond NPCs, and into the player base.

Much like, as a dungeon crawler, I can't make a ton of money unless I risk a more difficult monster to fight, which inherently comes with the danger of bandits looting my worldly goods from my still bleeding corpse.

I do like the idea of this system, I am just leary of how it will be able to tell the difference between me going out to wrong or despise killing lizards and rats for hides, then passing them to my crafter to make items that I will be selling to an NPC, there is time and effort placed into both chars to be able to do this. This example, I feel, is very different than me recalling from tanner to tanner buying hides then afkmacroing and come back in 10 mins to sell. The other example is my going out and chopping trees without a macro and making bows with one, to go back and sell the newly made bows to various smiths and bowyers, I would have to put in time and effort to get the logs....... even though i am making the bows with a macro. I am wondering if this system would be able to tell the difference between me repeating the same steps and movements Vs. my leapfroggin from tree to tree in an varying manner than the previous trip out.


Forgot to mention, is there going to be an appeal process like in real life, where I can plead my case? I have a lawyer and know how to use him :mrgreen:

I'm not sure that it will be able to tell the difference. This just prevents autoselling/macroing of goods to sell to npc's with little to no effort. I don't know ALL of the specifics but with somebody like you putting in the time, you would make much more selling to players through a vendor of your own, and that is something that this system will encourage.

True, player vendors are nice, but still got to get the gold to either put up the vendor or/and own house to put it in.

Although with everything being brand new, a player might be able to sell to other players by standing around bank announcing wares,

or that trading page on forums. We have much more options than back in the day. shard is coming together little more everyday and

becoming fantastic, not just awesome.

Glad you are enjoying. Its players like you that are making this shard what it was meant to be with your time and assistance. I look forward to playing with you after launch and for many years to come Lets continue to build a wonderful community.

ahh! Giant friend hugs
