So far no one's mentioned longbows or composite bows. Are they not worth buying from a store?

I've also been wondering about the new mining system. Are there any tools needed for it that should be stocked in a store so that people don't have to travel to the mainland for them?


GM Alvy

Sorry for the double post. It occured to me that I have an old pirate's bow, which is a reduced load longbow that dropped during pirate invasions. It might make sense to have those available on M'Riss, but I'm not sure if you can do that.

<<Chances of getting any reduced time weapons approved for a store are pretty slim.

Never hurts to ask, although that's what I figured. Thanks, Alvy!

might want to have some brushes and oil on hand - so far people can't make those themselves, but if you have the proper techs you can use them to repair your own weapons/armor if metal.

>Can't say I've ever hunted out there, but survivalists who might want to self repair [metal] armor would probably benefit from flasks of oil and wire brushes.

Almost guaranteed to be available when the forge opens out there.

I'm assuming that if anything gets a forge, it'll be Mer'Kresh since that's the "town," right?

Personally, I'm all for basic staples like oil and brushes to be available in other locations. Might become less of an issue when people can craft their own oils and brushes, since they might have more uses or whatever.

>>I'm not against that, per se, but I see no particular reason to make M'Riss particularly Necromancer-friendly. It is supposed to be hard mode.

...I'm not quite sure how a general store (or the inn already there) on M'Riss selling things like oils and brushes = "Necromancer-friendly." It's still fully capable of being a justice area, if you're concerned about that.

As I said, I'm not going to be there anytime soon. I just figured it might be nice to not have to take a ferry somewhere in order to buy a basic staple good for repairing equipment. Especially since repairing equipment doesn't require a forge to begin with. It's something you're allowed to do on the field.

Anyway, it's a very odd remark to make. If you think my suggestion was to have a store selling it on M'riss itself as opposed to Mer'kresh is some kind of "and then it won't be in town so the Necromancers win ha HA!," it's sadly all in your head.

Large, cheap shoulder containers added to my list!

This thread has been great so please let's not let it degrade into a necromancer debate.

Thanks!


GM Alvy

Not necessarily a Mer'kresh suggestion, specifically, but can we please just have a store to sell weapon straps in every province?

I'm either in Shard or I need to tan one myself.

Some suggestions:

tyrium

that damite plate that was an end prize from the Gnome Quest

ten-bolt repeaters

forged-quality basties that refill inner fire

Let me know if you need more.

Are leaf-head bolts a store bought item?

So far on my list of basic inexpensive day to day items that you always wind up needing at some point and don't want to go all the way to the mainland for are:

Backpacks
Weapon harness
Weapon strap
Shoulder worn container - large
Flasks of oil and wire brushes ???
Pickaxe
Shovel

Anything else people can think of?

There is a favor altar in the cleric guild on 'Kresh. Takes taffleberry tarts from the bakery on the island.

A gestalt draugen swipes a hooked leonine claw at Silus. The claw lands a solid hit that cuts deeply into his groin!

LOL! Saemaus, but looking at Elanthipedia it might be any tart, I've just always gotten that specific one.

Yeah, that's nice to not need to hunt caracals. However, I'd still like to see more options on the island for favors.

<Are leaf-head bolts a store bought item?>
Fest bought

Eylhaar and Aldauth also have altars on Kresh in Carillon, Garden shrine.

Leaf-head bolts are festival.

<<We can't use fest bolts in a perma store but the oak bolts Madigan mentioned are doable if people prefer those.

The ones he's talking about are actually from The Slings and Arrows of Outrageous Fortune on Aesry.

Could use the ammunition, at least. At any moment one might suddenly decide to go for the weaponmaster title. It'd also mean you won't be asked for it if slings suddenly become useful in Everything 3.0.

Slings and Staff Slings as they exist right now are horrible weapons to train, even with a tanned sling and carved ammunition. I'm not sure that Combat 3.0 is going to improve the Sling family of weapons so much that there will be an increase in demand.
