Bloodriven Village Shops

More a curiosity than anything, but is it possible that they actually planned ahead and set it up to increase in cost for every x number sold, largely to prevent someone stockpiling five or ten of them?

I sure hope not. I was standing there when Wyrom changed the price from 7500 to 10000. And I was thinking I'm okay with that, not bad. So, I went and bought some tokes and started grinding the sewer only to check back like 10 minutes later and it changed again. I think they just didn't realize the market value of it when they first put it up for sale. They also lowered the price on all the scrolls, those were all 7500 to begin with.

Honestly i was surprised they were there to begin with.

You and me both. At first, I was severely enthused. Then I realized that if you look at it from a business standpoint, this puts a *LOT* of cash into Simu's pocket, and removes it from the PC player-driven economy. That's bad =(.

And then they bumped the price on a lot of shit that matters to players. The Fash pin especially. Double the price? Who the fuck is going to pay 60+mil for 2 or 3 fash rubs per day? Seriously? At least at 7500 it was a severe investment of cash/silvers buying tokens/slips, but it was semi-reasonable, considering the market for x/day chargers.

>>Have the pins stabilized in price or are they going to keep going up like the Fash'lo'nae pin has doubled since release? It would be helpful to know before attempting to chase a moving target.

Something didn't stink when we added them originally. So the prices kept reverting back to a base price, which wasn't intended. They were a;ways intended to 7500 a piece for the two specific spells, and double for the Fash'lo'nae's Gift. There was someone in the shop who kept saying, "Don't change the 1750 price." And I couldn't figure out why he kept saying that until I double checked. And then I messed up a digit when I fixed it.

>>Also, what is the activator on the pins? Thanks.

I believe RUB is the activator. I could be wrong though.

[JackWhisper]

Yeah if that was what the fuck actually happened, sure.

Why didn't it go from 7500 to 15000 then? It went from 7500 to 10000 to 15000. Oh he mistyped more than once, after mistyping and paying more attention.

I smell BS.

updated spell book details and added closing time info from Wyrom.

Also there is only ONE nerve-rot runestaff left in prime.

[Tei]

Does anyone know anything about the armor in Ode to Resistance?

Are the resistances permanent? How much resistance? Are there vulnerabilities? Also is it enchantable?

In plat these are moderate and perm, should be the same in prime.

No answer about enchantable yet.

[RSR]

They are enchantable.

From the officials:

Earlier this evening the last of the five NerveRot Staves sold. And that's all there is, for realsies this time. Congratulations to everyone who got one! And to those who were looking forward to one and missed out take heart in that, while NerveRot will not be an offered combination next go around, you can expect to see some new super awesome NerveStaves instead. Stay tuned!

If the duskruin scrolls drain consistently with my past scroll research, you'll get ~800 casts of raise dead for your 7500 bloodscrip, assuming you never invoke/infuse the other spells on the scroll.

I'll work up the estimates for other already-available-on-scrolls spells (like 613, 215) tomorrow. For the ones that otherwise don't show on scrolls (like 515), if someone wants to bring me a scroll once it's ready to be infused, I can work up estimates for their lifetimes too. I got an 1109 scroll myself, so I'll publish that eventually, but it'll be a little while before I even work down from the 40 initial charges to below 20 where I can infuse it and check the value drain.
