Just a quick question/suggestion, now that gems use P12+ Platinum ore,
Could Platinum arrows be changed down to P5+ ore required (or a lower purity) as it's made getting hold of ore a hell of a lot more expensive and harder to come by.

*yes I have an archer :)*

i was lookin at poison crafting too, but not worth the effort for 750 bag, it should be upped to 2500 and same weight.
Prolly most crafting should be tweeked to make it worth the effort.

I have well over 30k of Plat arrows, it's not hard to come by them, I was just suggesting a use for lower Q platinum is all :)

Sure, but they should then be made somewhat weaker to compensate for them being more readily available.

Just put the neccessary dura for plat arrows down to 11, they will still be rare and sold for a nice price...

Whether or not it would've been changed, the DC gain is too high 6-12 + crit is stupid, no other class would get an item that gives these stats from an item that doesn't take an equipment slot up.

all arrows should be in shops,perhaps just increase the level to use them a little bit (plat arrows from 35? to 45 maybe)

with a price increase too ofc

Are people missing the point here? ... platinum arrows are a LUXURY item. They should not be in shops.

The extra DC from them is for higher tier bosses, not to go round shooting oma warriors. They should cost the price they do for the massive dc boost they give.

As previously stated platinum / other higher tier arrows are luxury items and have never been intended to be in shops or super cheap to make.

It was just an idea, and as stated by others the reasoning makes sense.

I think they point of this thread wasn't to make them cheaper, but to stop the prices being stupidly inflated by the increased demand for P12+ plat ore created by gemmers.

This was intended from the start, gemming / refining was planned to be in game from beta but was removed to implement a newer system.

Players are now finding the price of making platinum arrows more, because gemming has only just been added to the game, but its always been intended to run along side the crafting system.
You will find platinum prices are currently over inflated due to supply not meeting the demand, but over time the price will reduce as was seen on the previous server (acem2)

Turriff, I get that. But 'should have been' and us are 2 different things. If they had of been ingame priced would have stabilised faster a day we would be in a good place. I've only been playing a week, but noticed a
Considerable hike in price. Like you say, it will stabilise eventually, but some people don't like this boom. Personally I don't care - luxury items should be just that. What I love about this server is that you aren't molly coddled all the way through.

It may have been intended but it doexnt make it right. (For example your intended drop files look how many left due to them) Arrows need to use lower purity ore.
