The value of 4x, 5x, and even 6x enchanted items has been destroyed by Duskruin and numerous merchants offering these items. It has completely devalued wizard enchanting, and it is simply ridiculous right now.

Please stop spitting out veil iron, golvern, rolaren, and other rare metals as much as they are at Duskruin type events. You can find other ways to release items that sell for 35K at the pawnshop.

Please stop producing enchanted leather armors from the treasure system - let's let wizard enchants mean something again?

These don't have to stop - just tone it down so that they are actually rare items that we can be excited about getting. This may take a long time to fix, but you should start right now.

Please make GM-made items appear in specialized boxes so that we can get excited about these.

Please add more altered items and GM-made trinkets into the treasure system. Hell, throw in some stuff that was available at DR, even clothing. Go back into the database from events like the 1990's Juggernaut and throw some of that fluff into the hopper. Stuff like this will not hurt if it's in low quantities, but it will promote nostalgia and increase player (at least this player's) satisfaction.

Why can't you go back into some characters that haven't logged on in 15+ years and just copy some of their items and alterations. Some of us would even appreciate the bad ones.

It can't even remember the last obviously GM box-found that I got. Make them meaningful (and let them even be somewhat powerful).

Please give us more reasons to actually PLAY THE GAME than pay for the game with simucoins.

I like the idea of breathing some new life into the treasure system! Even finding a new gem can be pretty exciting for awhile.

Just to add to the ideas - how about adding certain items in for a limited time only (e.g. special gem can only be found in loot during the month of May, parts to build your own toy mechanical dragon can only be found during the month of April, hopefully you get the idea even if you don't like my specific suggestions.) Go with the 'treasure of the month' or 'treasure of the quarter'.

And yeah, I used to think fireleaf was super cool... until I could build a log cabin out of the stuff just picking up what people were tossing to the pawnshop.

RE: More reasons to PLAY vs. PAY. That's a point I keep trying to make with regard to the purchasing power of silver (but the treasure system fits in nicely with this as well). We'll see where we end up a year or two down the road - the S / P / W update seems a good step in a positive direction though!

Last point: Agree on the spewing of enchanted items like they are smooth stones (I think smooth stones are probably less common these days actually) but the recent enchanting of S/P/W items has definitely brought some value back to enchanting to help offset that.

P.S. I still think fireleaf is pretty cool but it has lost some of its magic due to it not really being rare any more.

>>Please give us more reasons to actually PLAY THE GAME than pay for the game with simucoins.

I like all of the suggestions in Kalah's post but this bears repeating!

I've got dibs on Oghier, Strom, Fxg, Maruko, Blades, Oberon, and Kodos' lockers!

Dart sold his stuff to Tedra, though, so you'd probably do better to look there.

Wow.... a lot of names I haven't seen in a long time...

A severed gnomish hand crawls in on its fingertips and makes a rude gesture before quickly decaying and rotting into dust. A gust of wind quickly scatters the dust.

Oh, dear, I had no idea...Now you've made me cry. :(

You are right, they should be exempted. Sigh.
