Production: Crafting and Mektoub Packers

[rushin]

Hehe, probably true. But, I'll bet that same jr. programmer could fix the gender bug too and if we got them both at the same time, no one would complain about the minor nerf effect.

and add a 0 or 2 to guild hall max bulk and slots

Currently, when you have mektoubs in different stables, and you're standing next to any stable on Atys, you can craft materials coming from all your packers resting in stables. We are planning to correct this incoherence as follows:

• When crafting, you have to stand near the stable where your packer is resting and can use materials carried by this packer only.
• If you have packers in one of the 3 Pyr stables however, you can stand near any of them to craft mats from these packers.

What about crafting and appartment ?
As you will fix craft and meks you could fix that too ...
just a thought

Let me just ask that, when this patch goes live, make it in such a way that raw materials that are in packers not standing at the stable where the player is crafting do not even appear in the craft window (not selectable), rather than an implementation where the player is able to select them and then the system validates it giving funny tihngs like the system backs off and empties the corresponding craft box

Just to be clear... I hope that you dont also mean for those of us that take our Packers to Far reaching places with us, such as Grove of Confusion, and store our mats on them and craft/sell to NPC, at the Hawkers?... Just want to be sure that Our ability to do that isnt taken away....

ah and all the while noone is thinking about us poor merchants who try to eek out a living on Atys...

I heartily agree the max number of mektoubs owned needs to be addressed, perhaps before this patch. Obviously i think there needs to be a limit so some wealty homin doesn't run his herd of fifty mektoub packers into Fairhaven and annoy everyone, but certainly more than three is doable?

Or even allowing us to have apartments in each lands would be a nice restitutution to nerfing our storage access abilities?

Or perhaps maybe selling special tp tickets for mektoubs?

Or more mounts than just one?

Or even let us rent storage bins... there seem to be plenty of crates and barrels laying around the citites...

inother words address the resulting issues before mandating the new laws.

(gov'ment they never seem to think...)

I agree with pretty much everything said in this thread.

Make Pyr the same as all, what's the reasoning behind Pyr being different? Doesn't make any sense to me.

You would definitely reduce complaints by allowing more packers but no more than say 15 (that's 3 per land + 3 for PR ). If Nevrax did increase the number of allowed packers, I hope people will learn to PARK them better than they do now though!

More apartments would also be good, not necessarily in the capitals either. I'd like one in Dyron. Might have to be a tent though.

Just to be clear... I hope that you dont also mean for those of us that take our Packers to Far reaching places with us, such as Grove of Confusion, and store our mats on them and craft/sell to NPC, at the Hawkers?... Just want to be sure that Our ability to do that isnt taken away....

I think what Anissa meant was that if the packer is not near you (i.e. at ANOTHER stable in her example), you shouldn't even see the mats in your craft window.

It's the man keeping us down... blame Vince, he is a Fyros and favors them

I though Vince was a large yubo boss.

I would assume that it's only "easy" to make it the way they said, with the exception in pyr so they just make that exception cause otherwise it would not be easy XD
Considering the bugs that occure that might rellay be true hehe

Does that mean our packers can travel with us via teleporter pacts?

Or does that mean that we can browse a central inventory of goods for sale?

I ask because when I used to craft I put my items up in multiple regions to expand my customer base. If I'm limited to what I can carry on my back that reduces what I can make available. Also limits the amount of mats I can purchase to further my skills.

The stable boys have access to a freight teleporter to ship the things I call for. Its definitely a good service and in-line with the ability for the Karavan and the Kami ability to teleport Atysians. I understand the stable boys don't have keys to my apartment or guild hall but I'm not crazy about someone that smells like Mektoub dung making themselves at home at my place.

Give us more... not less.
