Guide to prevent scamming

[GoZelda]

Okay i made this guide to prevent scamming, hope you like it

1 -- Safe Trade
The best is to always use safe trade. Ofcourse, because of tax, you might not like it. You can be almost totally sure to be scammed when you ask someone to use safe trade and he refuses. There's only one way of getting scammed by safe trade, and that's by selling something way under its worth. Example of this is someone who sold his lvl.4 map for 45 plats.

2 -- The Dropping Technique
If you choose the dropping technique, make sure:
You can't be pushed away by the other;
The right item is layed down by the other;
There are no other people;
it is a good idea to not wear armour in such a trade, as it slows you down. If the other turns around and runs to his money/item, turn around and grab your item/money.

3 -- Prizes
Here's a list of some items and their prizes
Dievil's Feet - 10-20 platinum coins
Immense Treasure Maps - 400-600 platinum coins
Level 4 Treasure Maps - 75-100 Platinum coins
Level 3 Treasure Maps - 50-75 Platinum coins
Level 2 Treasure Maps - 25-50 Platinum Coins
Level 1 Treasure Maps - use them yourself
for blessings you should see it like this:
+0 blessings: 50-100 Platinum Coins
+1 blessings: 100-200 Platinum Coins
+2 blessing: 200-300 Platinum Coins
+3 blessings: 300-600 Platinum Coins
this is about it

If I might add...
Safetrade-tax on main is limited to 20 plats above a certain price.

Also, you can use trading tables, which cost 3 plats and allow you to sell your valuable items and accept other items as payment, or a mix of both items and plats.

I lost a spare wand this way when I tested the tables - alone. I placed it there, clicked cancle... nothing, it remained... vanished after a while, never seen it back. This should be fixed, I agree...

safe trade

highest is 20 plats tax

people go cry over it?

[Satrek2000]

I agree, it shouldn't bee too hard for both sides to pay 10 plats each - if the item is something worth thousands, security is quite cheap in relation...

Actually, if your item gets stuck on the table, you CAN get it off. I've done it. Shrimp's shield got stuck on it, and I was able to get it off. If you go to the corner of the table (up top) and push down, you'll walk a bit into the table. Keep doing that until you get to the item, then you can grab it and pick it up.

my speed is either too fast or to slow =( with speed items on i cant do it and with em off i cant

I also found you can pry items off the table with animate weapon.
Use the spell and run it into the table. It should go into the table a bit and 'eat' the item, then you can get the weapon back and the item!

Hey, that's an even better and easier idea! It also works with any summon! Great idea, using a summon to get the item off of the table.
