Chestnuts

[Wallnut]

It appears chestnut trees have been severely nerfed in the most recent patch. I understand that the devs want to keep gold valuable but it's getting ridiculous.

I used to spend a few hours hunting chestnuts in the morning to fund pots for the day, nothing too impressive, only made 100k per hour, personally I don't think that's 'OP'.

You can make 100k/hour in BC.

100k/hr to a bot is 2.4m per day.

Worthwhile sacrifice, no?

2.4m x 30 days+ of game opening date PER bot

Well why not just remove chestnut trees entirely then?

 

[suicidal]

Ha Thought it was just me having bad luck, like 2 chestnuts per 10 trees or so now lol agree might as well remove harvesting as its not even worth it now and will solve the botting problem

 

[d1craig]

all these type of things do is make the gold that these botters have farmed more valuable. revert it back to the way it was at the beginning and keep on top of the checks you are doing for gold etc and it will all be fine.

i have never played a server where i have had to choose either go and try to make gold or level and actually play for fun. i do my farming irl ( having a job so i can come online and enjoy myself). i dont want to then do it in game aswell.

if gold was dropped into bag this might be more bareable but the fact you have to go and collect everything after a big lure reduces the time you can spend killing lol. i am half werewolf so dont even mention the silver plate. dick heads.

There is a big problem at the moment with Gold, you just don't earn enough to support your leveling which is a concern, no one wants to go bc or st at level 40+ just to earn gold to support your hunts and it's making a lot of people just to log off because they just cannot be arsed which i 100% agree on, who wants to hunt in a cave -20 levels, it also isn't fair on those players hunting there as the high levelers just cain all the mobs.

Mining was a way to make Gold but the way it is now? it's **** and pointless, it would be perfect if there was anything decent to craft but there isn't, i been Mining a few times now making average of 30-40k (full bag) which took around about 1 hour due to running around looking for nodes, pointless.

I know you want Gold to have a value on here but as far as not being able to fund your hunts? na that a problem which needs addressing.

If this chestnut update was a attempt to stop bots making gold, well done but do they know if effects us all? i personally didn't really do chestnut farming much, but this sort of update is stupid when there is a clear problem with Gold in game, find another solution to stopping bots which doesn't effect us all.

 

[Wallnut]

Completely agree with Sanity, they're throttling gold too much and it's making people not want to play. Personally I don't have any problem with gold being slightly less valuable, at least then people will be able to actually hunt and enjoy the server.

 

[Tist]

If they want to keep gold low then fair enough but to allow ppl to level without doing an hour pre hunt pot and repair prices should be nerfed.

 

[eternallight]

Gold was much harder to make on euro. Here is easy in contrast with the mining. And Bounty boards

 

[Vane]

If all shop items were free they could remove gold altogether.

After that rarer items would be exchanged for others.

Sounds drastic but it removes the bot issue and allows people to hunt for items and levels without the gold grind time.

Bag size becomes a limiting factor between repotting and bag extensions could be sold via gameshop.

 

[shane1985]

What's all this crap about gold being hard to make in euro? Used to get loads of mass drops, especially in bug cave. I can remember leaving with a full bag of items every hunt. Skeletons even used to mass drop gold in OC.

 

[jaffar99]

in my opinion the higher lvl people that are posting here are saying you can just go to bug cave and all but at the end of the day we cant all just go in bug cave and get money relatively quickly. Im a level 28 wizzie yet still find it hard to make money simply because I can hardly take hits, honestly the only way I can make money is chestnut trees and a few shitty items that drop on the floor. Yesterday I spent 30 minutes on chestnut trees and make 15k. That for me is pitiful. I think they're should be more of a chance of getting chestnuts because I think it is so low. that you can not make hardly any money.

but back at the start of euro, you could craft poisons and sell them because poison wasn't for sale.

I was not able to find bag extensions in the cash shop, only the storage extensions.

I find it a nice change going into ST/ BC to cash and pot up. Don't forget with the amount you kill there is a chance of a added stat item. If lucky you can sell for a decent price and not have to cash for a while.

Mining is good, stops people afk gold making.

 

[Skyline]

I used to love going BC on euro to get cash.

Level44, stick on junk items from store to not waste best item dura and smash mass lures.

Also at 34ish on my wiz I'd go get some black mags and head to oma cave, let them kill everything for me so no need for pots. Used to make a nice profit. But saying that, Stones made a good profit as there was a use and demand for them (gem crafting)

 

[alison87]

id vote for putting chestnut trees bk to how they were and introduce a captcha or w/e like was originally said. From what I can see lower level mobs are dropping less too. I know this is to try and stop bots but doesn't seem fair to also punish legit lower lvls who are now struggling to make cash. Ive said from the start pots really should be cheaper, or maybe just the smaller pots to help lower levels. I think all that's gonna happen is bots will level a little higher and go bot other places for gold.
ANd as for struggling for cash on Euro...oma cave mass drops and PI spider mass drops...I made 25m in no time just off them

 

[Toddwhite]

Remove chestnut trees altogether. They are boring and laborious, and help botters. Make the repeatable quests have a wider level range, if you want to make money, get a group of 2-3 and do the repeat quests, the more people you go with, the less pots you use, and the reward is the same. its also faster. There is NO issue with gold on here, I have never once had to farm for just gold.

Prices on accesories and especially armours have been jacked up. Can sell them for 4-7k now for 22 arms. 15k for 33 arms if u cba to sell to players.

Play the game instead of freebie gold, youll find yourself alot richer.
