Author | Refill artifacts |
All i see is stock up, stock up, stock up.. lol
Somebody's stuck up on "stock up". Stocking requires gold, it requires planning. I'm sure someone is stocking with the idea to sell that's why there is no artifact left in the first place. So I guess your idea is: everyone should stock up so nobody needs to pay ridiculous costs during events? If we have 1000 artifacts in shop and 2000 people active during the event, i wonder how your idea of "stock up" solves the problem. It solves it for some players, not everyone. Then the next person creates a thread for "refill" and what will you say? "Stock up"? |
What are you on about?
During quiet periods (non events) the production facilities have a lot of arts, enough for everyone and on the market they are sold for a reasonable price.
There is no 1000 arts 2000 players situation. |
@21
The problem is not really with the economy of the game, but more of the way people make use of it.
Currently, during the time of no events, the production facilities often remain idle, with full stock, once their gold reserve is depleted.
The result of it: a lot of time is wasted, because the production is stopped. Therefore, less items in total will be available in the future.
---------------
Now, if people stocked up continously, just by buying an item once in every while to slowly build up their personal stock, the factories would be manufacturing almost all the time - because they would have a constant gold reserve to pay the wages (the side effect would be also the better earnings per hour for most enrolling players - invest to earn).
The result would be as follows: more items would be produced, more would be at hand in everyone's inventory and high stocks at the facilities. There would be much less instant demand for items, which would mean not only you'd be prepared, but also the facilities' stocks would be drained at much slower rate.
And finally, what this thread regards - there would be way less market profiteering, if any at all. |
It's not hard to stock up and it's not the games problem if people can't afford that because they still refuse to do the basics in this game to earn money.
There's no need to know exactly when an event is about to come, they are so often you must always be prepared.
Smith's can always repair any art. If you can't afford to stock up or a smith or rent or market, then most probably you can't afford to play events at first place. |
hum, ok.
In the meanwhile, some shortages from the shop have been refilled, if anyone needs some arts. |
Stock up u say like we have alot of inventory capacity :) |
for krabylos
i dont know were u been the last decade but we dont even get an anouncement that a effent is about to start en iff it comes it comes, it comes 2-3 days after the event has started en then of course most aries are already gone |
We don't get an official announcement, but players here are usually very quick on the ball to post about an event when it does show up |
I think it comes down to personal responsibility - Knowing that we don't get announcements and checking GGF regularly to ensure you don't overlook an event. Especially as the event news is often posted within the hour.
Yes inventory space is limited, but I suppose the money aspect of Lords of War and Money means being able to negotiate the limit of inventory and being personally prepared for any upcoming event you may want to take part in. |
for Meshy:
What am i on about? I was giving a theoretical example. Didn't think anyone would suggest i was actually claiming the numbers 1000/2000. But here it is -
If we're to play 84 battles, that needs having at least 3 cloaks if you want to avoid buying them during the event so stocking up like you said would mean "buy 3 cloaks before the event" if i am not wrong. Even if most don't play for 84 battles, you still need more than 1 unless you are sure beforehand you wont want to play more than 30. Another one as a spare.
In the first place, if everyone took your suggestion and started stocking up 2-3 cloaks like they needed for this event; add another one to it because you recommend having a spare in case there's another event right after this one - just like we had pot right after the pvp event, are you sure there is usually enough available to maintain this? Personally it doesn't affect me this time as i wont be playing enough battles, but i do think its a little too drastic to suggest EVERYONE to remain stocked so nobody can complain again.
Now the cloak is probably the only artifact that such a wide range of combat levels can use and its very good to have we all know that. So while we're clueless about the actual numbers, unfortunately i have to estimate a 70%-80% of all active players will need to have 2 or 3 cloaks each before the event begins. That seems pretty easy..maybe.
For now, we got that refill so i'm sure all is good with OP and myself too. Just couldn't ignore that "what are you on about" you so politely asked. |
just before this thread ends in a fight:
explanation and workarounds about artifacts shortage during event:

Just an update, the "lag time" between facilites and shop has been since reduced to 1 to 2 seconds.
You can avoid it by comparing your PC clock with the roulette page. Click your button when the roulette clock is at :00:00 ! |

Have 2 for arts with dura less than 50. Use 1st and when its durability depletes, use 2nd and send 1st one to repair.
Will use less than 18 inventory spaces. :)
For arts with dura greater than 50, send them to repair and wait for some hours.
There are so many smiths in ru and com combined!
I found it better this way.

If you forgot to stock arts and don't want to overpay then you can still buy arts from facilities when workshift ends or from art shop as guyb suggested.
Personally, I made quite a decent profit through it (Buying when workshift ends during the event).

I don't think admins should refill stocks since this is the only time you can make a decent profit through trade when you're a beginner in game.
Other methods like buying selling of ench arts, event arts require a good knowledge of market and also a lot of time to study the trends of that particular art.
In the course of developing your character, you can participate in single, multiplayer, and even clan fights. For strategy and economy fans, there is a vast economic model available. Be it a short pause between fight or a complete dedication to the merchant's career, you will be able to quarry and machine dozens of resources types, produce and trade hundreds of artifacts.

IF
do you have a proof that artifact and people who need that artifact are always 1:2 ? |
first of all, this thread seems like a jealous thread.
All people are opportunist,
they calculate, they strike and make profit....
why are you so jealous about it.
2nd, o you have a proof that artifact and people who need that artifact are always 1:2 ?
not for all arts.. but for some..
for example...
https://www.lordswm.com/object-info.php?id=407 .... only one production, low output. |
Better yet
Why dont you take part in the business yourself if you think its so rewarding..
Honestly do you expect people to travel on the map buying and selling resources to get different arts are going to spend all that time so you can get it cheaper? |
