Crafting and gathering

Maybe something like this has been suggested before, but today I just got another idea, and I want to post it there.

Gathering: Players could pick up herbs and logs, mine ore and gemstone from lodes and catch some fish from lakes.

Crafting: Using these ingredients players could craft useful items, like weapons and food.



Note: This is not the complete table, and I'll add the bow crafting later.

 

Sorry man but you are too much influenced by FB games .

 

Yeah, I kind of have to agree. DSO is a fairly simple browser game, but with more action than a typical browser game. I don't think it needs a lot of "skills" and "crafting", other than the workbench and jeweler which are fine the way they are now.

 

I can see where he is coming from. There is another dungeon crawler game . Persons could fish uniques, some were cursed ; it was kinda fun. So, I think he is looking for the application of a similar principle. Could be rather interesting if it is introduced.

On a side, I do not mean to plug for other games, just could not figure out how to get around it.

 

OMG I remember FATE. It was one of my all time favorite games. I really did like the features of the game and I would love some similar ones to be in DSO.

 

Ok... This wasn't a good idea. But thank you for answers.

 

Is it possible for you to expand or clarify your idea so we can understand exactly what you are trying to communicate.

 

Ok, there is an example:

1. You find some tin ore and gemstone from a lode and you want to use it to craft a new sword.
2. You go to a workbench and smelt the tin ore. You got a tin bar.
3. You select a recipe from the list. It is used to craft a tin sword. You click "craft" and you got a fine tin sword. Your crafting skill improves.
4. You still have the gemstone, and you use the "Jewelcrafting" skill to craft an amethyst. You click "craft" and you get a splintered amethyst. Your crafting skill improves.
5. Whenever you get a new crafting level, you get new recipes.

 

This sound like "minecraft" ..
Before new feature are add in game is a lot more beter to fix the curent problems in game:
-Delete all Booters accounts
-Fix all bugs
-Improve game basic programs to clear Lagg problems

 

need something new in game as it is same old weapons, items all the time...
same as events same old stuff on offer..
at least have some one like gnob that travels different areas once a week selling all different without using draken or anderments..

always a pleasure

soxx ....

 

The purpose of the introduction of Gnob was to use event currency, thus encouraging the participation in event and possibly the buying of andermants where necessary to complete. I cannot see BP bringing Gnob frequently and him not selling items for drakens or anders.

Further there is another thread dealing with suggestions related to Gnob.

i am not even talking about the gnob if you take time out to read.... i said add another who sells without using draken or anders... we have gold silver copper
what we dont want is same old stuff over and over again....
have a traveller that appears at different locations selling stuff we have not seen before... the gnob has nothing, its all old stuff...

always a pleasure

soxx ....

 

There are several other merchants already who use gold. And as is, for most new persons gold is a scarce commodity.

You are a fine one to speak about reading. You are famous or rather infamous for spewing without reading and even worse comprehending.

Have a great one!

 

rofl keep rambling son
yes other merchants use gold, like i said its all old.... there is a thing called farming easy way to get gold... try it some time
wouldn't you like to have new items? i guess not lol...


always a pleasure

soxx.....

 

Sigh!

 

Don't be upset, Superme. He just wants new things to be added to game which would be sold by merchants for coins. Yet fails to say what these items might be. That request is often answered only by large expansions such as atlantis and myrdosch. You just have to wait for such things.

 

@TheInfamous I am not upset. I have a low tolerance threshold with persons who constantly run their mouths and while not listening to or tolerating the opinions of others. Additionally, persons who are immature in their response ( I have had to force myself not to say anything on many occasions). I know this is all on a side.

I can respect that people need to see new content, however, the caption of this thread speaks to a specific new skill. There is another thread for Gnob, better yet, he could have created another thread asking for a different type of merchant. The fact is, gold have been increasingly getting more valuable. I have been playing this game long enough to see a lot of major changes, including gold changing from being just there to something that is increasingly becoming harder to accumulate.

Back to the main topic of the thread. @_Dragonscale_ , I can see where you are going, and it can add an nice element to the game. Are you thinking about another skill for the experience tree or knowledge tree?

 

I guess I should have put a somewhere in there. You were only annoyed judging by that 'Sigh!' xd

Gold has become increasingly more valuable and needed in larger amounts. I remember when its main purpose was to repair armor... which cost a few silvers at most.

I believe Dragonscale wants this to be a basic part of game rather than a talent on knowledge or experience trees. Or perhaps he is suggesting a new tree altogether. Not quite sure. Either way I like the idea.

 

I think this should be a basic part of game, not knowledge or experience talent.

 

Sorry but Draken is unique and good as it does not have an annoying crafting system like that.
