So recently I just got an iPhone and I've been trying to get a little graal account up and running on it. Just something I can play on when I don't have my iPod handy. And where I can access all areas of the map excluding the hour and kill rooms. So basically being pretty experienced I completed the tutorial, got my gralats, went to the arena got the 200 from the chests, then went and bought some hats from onset just to have some nice cheap hats. Then i went to my house, sold te table and 2 chairs they give you, and got 625 gralats overall from that From there I decided to save up for a lantern to access snowtown and deadwood. So I went in the dreaded boring task of farming. I started out by going to swamptown. After seeing that most people there were just running around on horses swinging their sword an stealing gralats I left for Zola pub since that was a little more out of they way. I got there, did a little better and managed to make some gralats but again stealers came in and took most of them again, so I had to stop to try and get rid of them time after time. After that I decided to go to the secret arena garden and farm there. This is where I did best since Most of the people there either didn't steal, or were stupid and got stuck inside the little area on the right by horse jumping in. So I managed to get a good 300 gralats before using all my bombs and running to kill some baddies since I thought this would be a way to get my baddy kills up to get into the castle, get some bombs and arrows, and maybe a few tokens! So I did that for a little while, came back farmed a little more rinsed and repeated for hours! Then I thought to myself how much it must suck to be new and have to deal with stealers, and getting those items which let you access the rest of the map easily like a horse, or drasine, etc. then it hit me. New players have it do much worse than this. Because unless they run into a super nice guide they're not gonna know where that baddy cave is to get the shovel, and easy baddy kills, or where the secret spar area is to farm, or about the chests in the arena. They're gonna be forced to deal with stealers, and slow farming in order to get these items most of the time. And they look around and don't know what to do. Since people want their guild members to be able to access these areas, and when getting an item as necessary as a lantern becomes nearly impossible they're not gonna stick around. I can't see a lot of new players coming and staying in the future if the current gralat making methods are still in place.  

I think Gralats should be local in public farming places so that others can't steal them.  

There is a reason this is not being fixed. Gralat packs. XD  

I agree there needs to be a faster higher skill/risk way of making gralats, farmings like a 401k, we need something that's like investing, you can get a lot if your lucky/skillful, or you can lose a lot, all very quickly.  

They give you afree table and chairs?!?!? O.O

Yes you get 2 chairs and 1 table if you buy the house pack. Same for GHouse so basicly you can get up to 4 chairs and 2 tables

I dont recall getting them when i got the house and guild house packs. (18 months ago) lol.  

You got them (about 2 years ago and than later on also with the GHouse). Well not sure with the house but I do think that I got them and have been proud of the "SOOOOO" expensive books I have been saving my money for... gold ol´ time  

And that's where iTunes and gralat packs comes into the picture !

Well I realize they want people to buy gralat packs but who's goin to be interested in a game where the only way to actually get money is from in app purchases. Very few players are going to be coming to iclassic if there isn't a good method of money making. I therefore see a decrease in player count as people begin to quit, or similar reasons. Farming, in my opinion, is everything a money making system shouldn't be. It's super slow, unreliable, random, people can steal them, it's mind numbingly boring, and it's the one and only way to do it without spending real money.  

And Stefan won't let anyone do **** about it. Im fairly sure a new way of making gralats that is more fun and quicker but less gradual could have been implemented by now, but until Stefan gives permission...

We need some jobs. It´s not THAT hard to create them though.

We need some jobs/quests. It´s not THAT hard to create them though.

 

And why quests? They have nothing to do with starters complications. Yes some gralats as reward, but thats not constantly. No way to safe the king 2x and everytime he did the same crap :o
