Nice updates

1 request or question: the trade in rate from residue is 50 residue to get 1 essence. I understand why the rate is low as residue is easier to unravel than essence but any chance on getting it bumped up a touch? runes needing essence need 10 which converts to 500 residue (not easy to get). what about 50 - 3 or even 50 - 2?

Cheers guys

Everyone is free to have their own opinions of course, but i really dont understand why some people want to segregate pandoras community..  :?

Jerry hears your gargish growls and cries for help and tells you all hope is not lost!

I am currently filling bods for horned runic kits that make some very nice gargish leather armour and will be stocking my runic armour vendor with glorious gargish armour.

LET THIS BE THE END TO PREJUDICE RUNIC ARMOUR CRAFTING!

Go to luna gate, travel directly NE for around 30 steps until you run into the vendor "runic armour SALE" on the front steps of the 1st house to the right. I will do my best to keep it stocked from time to time.

Awesome update guys!

Quick question, how many pvpevents will be held perday? Just hoping i wont miss them all due to time difference. Id hate to have to get up at 3am everyday

A lot of good ideas for staff to read on this post  although its turned from thieving to reds and facets lol.

Here's mine:

I dont think segregating reds and blues is the way to go. Pandora is a community made of of good/evil players, if we split the community into "reds can only be in fel facet" and so on  things are gonna go downhill real fast. Ppl play a mmporg like uo to socialise, hunt with and hunt other ppl. If you dont like playing with other people i highly recommend pacman.

Interesting point about termur going fel rules, i actually agree with this one but am not sure how to even it out on the rest of the facets so probably good as is atm i guess. I know ppl hate fel because reds pk there, but tram can be just as hard to judge. You get ppl killing players in fel but also get ppl farming 24/7 in tram. Tough for staff to find an even layout.

Its current state is not being argued, its future state is.

I totally agree with deadmous. Factions is 100% PVP and 0% PVM. You get a 7/7 robe when you join to help IN faction fights, players who join factions just to use the robe for trammel facet pvm should not be allowed orange, and you "cannot" deny that mate.

Hold on hold on... You mean to say you had an operation and must rest so you might not be able to vote for a few days?!?

Shame on you!

Jokes mate im pretty sure Kon wont jail you or delete your accounts due to failure to vote for 3 consecutive days.. Id say its a safe bet itl be fine. Nice to see an addicted voter tho

Oooh Domos be careful where you point the 'noob' finger mate.

He is right in saying that it interrupts them, cos it does. 99% of mage pvpers do not use protection as it slows casting down WAY too much, make it pretty hard to kill someone with spells when you cast em at fc2... Protection mages are too easy to kill, keep em poisoned and they will spend their whole fight curing at slow speed.

Wow, all really good points on the whole bandage thing. You know you have dedicated players when ppl are prepared to change their suits to match whatever changes are brought in. I know the Iecm guys are mainly dexxers so would be hard for them, applause to you guys for taking it like ye have

Personally i reckon speeding the bandages up a tad and capping at 2 seconds would be perfect . Ive seen it work well like that on other servers with similar stats. However its up to kon and giz and they are doing a great job  If the current bandage timer is here to stay then i hope these options will help keep our dexxers dexxing:

* If u can get some serious fire resists i highly recommend using vamp form permanently guys, dexxers shouldnt need to cast mage spells and vamp form gets rid of poison (casted) before your bandies cure them leaving your bandies free to heal you.

* Like Mous said necro and chiv have remove curse/cure and heal spells between em u dont need a spell chan weap to use.

* Art im not sure if this helps but the equation im using for the new bandages is just 245 - dex. Seems to work on script for me to keep it close to fastest speed. Hope it helps ya out.

*Atm spirit speak heals massively and will heal through mortal wound and poisons (although i hope that may change  lol ) so is also a nice healer.

*Concentrate on keeping blessed/potted at all times. If u dont mind using a lot of pots this will help out big time with bandage speed.

* Maybe off topic a tad.. but if the mages a buggin yeh and ye need to get them on the defensive grab a cleaver and gm necro. if u can bleed/dp/strangle a mage its pretty hard for him to get spells out.

Hope it helps guys. We need our dexxers here on pandora, good to have the variety

Hey gizmo nice work mate, i just have 1 request

Can you explain the bandage thing again? I dont quite understand how you have done it.. I get that you said 150dex = 8sec bandages, and 100dex = 13 sec bandages.. But you also said you need 220 dex to reach 2 sec bandages?

I was going off 150dex = 8 seconds. So 8 seconds - 6 seconds = 2seconds. Therefore 220dex - 60dex = 160dex. so 160dex = 8 seconds bandies? something is not right..

If you want to you could post the exact equation how the new bandaging works so i could fix my bandage scipt

Sooooo back to the Aussies...

They played a great game, specifically the 2nd half was unreal! Stupid germany had to win by 1-0 tho

Good try Socceroos! maybe next world cup the officials wont have some wierd vendetta against us or make absolute bs calls..

Same as Kon, just use a script that uses bandages when possible. I think that is a fair script, imo uo should do it auto for you anyway. When you are pvping you have a lot to remember let alone trying to time a bandage every 2 seconds lol. I disagree with others some ppl use tho, like auto cure casting, peacemaking in duels.. that sorta crap

Hmm this is a tough one to judge...

I personally am on the other side, i may 'spam' the trade channel, im not sure though lol.

i put at least a 10 minute timer on my trade msgs, is this spamming? What is the minimum pause people are happy with before it is thought of as spamming?

Obviously the best market for me is on here, the 'market' forums.. However i know that not everyone on pandora looks at the forums (which is a shame) so i also ask for trades ingame over the chat channel, mainly for rare items i know your average joe probably wont have. I put a timer of 10 minutes because i know that will give me the best chance for online players to see the post, and it seemed like a decent amount of time not 2 bug ppl. Maybe ill bump it up to 20, i dont want to lose trade privelages for 24 hours  

So the reg gathering system has been gotten rid off for now? Im sure there were ppl who took the time to gather the regs but really it just seemed to put hundreds of thousands more objects into the Pandora world that only a very small minority used. And the regs can be bought at quite an acceptable price  

Is there anyone opposed to this system being permanently removed?
