The value of items

Emily_Cruddas · #1 09-02-2004, 12:03 AM

it seems to me that i'll be stuck without the best of all items for awhile, rings of war are so valuable to ppl i doubt i'll ever wear one on my finger unless i cough up 50 gold keys and my new shield (HSoD+10).

i had very good hopes of trading for one and now it seems the value has gotten higher, this is just me complaining i guess, i'm not sure what will be done about the ever growing prices on kingdoms, as ppl get better items they seem to demand more for them all.

I used to feel the same way all the time, since item collecting is the only thing to do, untill like the past few months.. I had only little valued items and what Nayoko could afford to buy and able to let me use.. Then I began to try every way possible to make plat.. more then like 20k and keep saving.. then go spawn EAs and sell them for diamonds.. it wasn't untill I saved about 200+ and able to buy a war axe.. and then I was able to trade for a Warhammer.. my first good weapon ever. And since then I worked for more better stuff.. Now I have dual row, FHOV+10, mith of berwean+11, hsod+9 and more stuff and alot of other weapons.. But.. I didn't complain.. before.. I just worked hard and hard.. trying to earn money...
But really I wish all this item concentration would stop.. and more of the purpose of GK would start. It's all this greedyness with being the best that has gotten everyone.. even me.. into this vicious cycle of item trading.

But untill then.. might as well enjoy what you can get and begin to work harder..

Maybe if all these items -weren't- rare and many available to alot of people, everyone would get bored of it..and start focusing on RP.

You mean.. the Hammer of might Nayoko Spawned for you? LOL thx.

Oh and Brad, 50 is good, but try this, 85 for dual row if they sign a legal contract .

Oh, Yea because apparently she's staff and has the powers.

No :/ She doesn't have those powers. And she wouldn't anyway. I bought my hammer from a guy who didn't want it because he didn't like it. Sorry to burst your bubble but Nayoko doesn't cheat or do things like that nor do I.

Lol, she had powers one day, she spawned all those fortifications... and jeez, you ALL suddenly got Hammers of Might.. from out of the blue.

Remember, I'm the one who keeps track of all these spiffy items. I know things.

Well there was that one time not so long ago where someone duped a ****load of hammers, and stefan just went "owell, the retards that traded for them would feel upset because they are retards, so i won't bother removing half of them..." or something.

It was the agility hammer. It was my hammer afterall. Scream ended up trading some of his duped stuff for a Might hammer, blah blah.

Uh.. me, her, misty, meiko and all the other KJ members spent a 2 whole days working on making fortifications.. :/ Ask Meiko she dug up around 300+ tree seeds.

Not really, if you paid attention to the trading room you would of seen us buy them from people.

Right.. You can't keep track of every single item when you aren't on 24/7.

You weren't even playing when we got them. So don't try to act as if you know everything because you don't.

Only 1? Well.. either I have the rarest shovel in the game, or there's more than 1.

Redwizard · #18 09-05-2004, 09:49 PM

x-x nayoko does not have powers to spawn any items, jagen and lance do, thats about it realli, and bjorn, but thats cos he is Events Admin.

protagonist · #19 09-05-2004, 10:18 PM

I don't play as a result of the cost of items.

The economy is far too blown up to make it possible. I don't want to spend months working to get fun, especially since it is rumored that eventually GK will get a reset.

Agreed.
And dude, we will never get reset, because noone cares about GK anymore except for the players and the USDers(because they spent so much irl cash on pixels).

Are you staff? No. :/

No! I will not give in! I will uh, be the stereotypical hero who runs through crazy places killing carebears, then finds out the cure to the evil disease making people want to dress like bears and hug each other to death. What a movie

Are you trying to make me look bad? Because, I don't get it.. does it make any difference if it's fresh or recoloured?

It's the thought behind it that counts..

Tell me, you must be a GK player.. would you rather want a super ebil weapon like "evil weapon dwarf hammer of doom2005 ac+20wc+191238"
that will ruin the economical balance of the game

or

A shovel that differs nothing than the graphic of the orignal one, which can be used as a regular shovel and a trophy.

First one, if I say it's prepped people will believe it's unnatural powers.

You know the ironic part is that your point is completely invalid with that particular example
Pretty much everybody here will want the evil weapon dwarf hammer of doom

Omigod yey for the forums not working properly yesterday for some reason...anyway.

Sure thing skip, i was trying to make you look bad, because i obviously know you well enough to want to do so

No. I just thought it odd how you say "drew" when it was just a recolour.

Yeah, ok, how dare you make that assumption of me. You know nothing about me, but if you did know the slightest bit of knowledge about what kind of person i am you'd know that some dwarf hammer of doom2005 is the last thing i'd want. It's true that 90% of GK would want that, but still, you shouldn't just make that bloody conclusion without even thinking.

Ps. the economical balance of the game is already ruined. The everything else balance of the game is also ruined. In fact, if there's anything on GK you can find that isn't ruined, i'll give you a potato.

The EM having the event said it was the only one. Maybe it was the first one released. Or he was just lying.

Tyrial · #40 09-09-2004, 09:14 AM

@Dehitay, Perhaps they will.. But at that time I were an EM and GFX Maker for GK so if the players cant hold the economy someone got to do it.. and we staff had to do it..
