I suspect the Fyros will end up burning down whatever they build anyway.

We had an interesting theory come up in guild chat...what do you think the chances are that we are presently constructing spires?

Interesting theory, maybe we should stop digging mission mats and start digging real mats for cash to buy up a stock of TP tickets. :p

Breaking news !

http://atys.ryzom.com/news/29
The camps of Loria Ponds and Hush Hole are less advanced. I went there, thinking to find a beer merchant had come to interrupt the Trykers at work, but no, nothing! So i went to the camp builders, and they assured me they were spending long days, without beer or rest, so to speak, waiting for materials and components to be assembled at the warehouse.

I interviewed several vendors, beer in hand, to understand the reasons for the delays supplying the sites furthest from the capital. My small investigation leads me to believe that the road to the most remote camps is a bit... dangerous. Hunting grounds of some large predators, if you know what i mean... So most Mektoub drivers refuse to lead their mount or packer through there, claiming the journey to be too long and dangerous, and the feeding costs too high.

So for the good of the project, I decided to offer something that should motivate people: to accelerate the construction of the camps, I will reward Mektoub drivers who make a delivery with a sum of 10.000 dappers at the time of delivery. This will compensate them for the cost of food for their Mektoubs. "Rest or dappers, you must choose", my uncle Ba'Dairi always used to say!

The carrier of this beautifully written letter (you will appreciate the effort, I hope) shall deliver a small wooden chest, containing enough dappers to pay for deliveries for several days, to the overseer of each camp. They will be resupplied on a regular basis. Note that those dappers may not be spent on anything else!
There you go, trykers... your mounts are getting paid in food to travel aggro filled lands... :p

While some spots in Matia and Tryker are very dangerous to dig and ride I got one thing for the whole Scenario.

Something many of us wanted for a loooong time and complained about on these very boards.

IT CERTAINLY DOES TAKE DAPPERS OUT OF THE GAME! :p

And complaining about the cost while in other threads demanding to give value to Dappers and taking the Billions out of the game is just a wheeeee bit... weird? ;)

P.S.: Yes, I know newbies donĀ“t have that much dappers. So whey not help them, as with so many other things we all present them with upon arrival?

It was not the cost that was prohibitive to our progress. http://atys.ryzom.com/boards/22/topics/197#message-207

the rates have been changed

it was 0.04% it is now 0.4%

30 crates per delivery quest
3 crates per harvest quest
0.42% per delivery quest

7140 crates per 100%
238 deliveries per tower

which might explain why we have caught other servers up, rates will no doubt be lowered again in a day or two.
