Bombs and Arrows Dropping - 2

Fire Surge · 08-02-2013

So if we had 99 bombs on us, they would all be dropped? If so, you should only drop 5 bombs/arrows at a time.

If you have 99 bombs on you you will drop 25 when this is correctly implemented. 25% rounded drops.

Wasn't this "tested" once already? I remember Gralats would drop, too.

No because that would never ever happen when people are paying real money for those gralats.

Xenthic, this will reduce Arrow spamming

Kinda ish I guess if someone is arrow spamming somebody will target that person, kill them and use there arrows which will create rage fits and the reduced prices for arrows and bombs won't help.

But I guess reducing arrow spamming is kinda good I guess ;)

Lol dont listen to ass ketchup he pro noob. If u think about it this will make arrow spam easier. Once a noob unleashes 200 arrows all they have to do is pick up the arrows from the crowed. Ill try to make a video to show it.

So say you have 90 arrows, you die, you have 65(or whatever number it is), you revive and you can just pick up the arrows from people you killed, isnt that kinda pointless? Unless you lose the arrows completely,

I'm not against the idea...
But atleast maybe it could drop bombs and arrow that ain't people's arrows and bombs?
So people don't loose bombs and arrows (People are happy)
And if maybe it could drop a item sometime(like idk 10% of the time) that you can trade when you have alot in a shop(Yes I am talking of the Token Shop who's not useful anymore and if we can add cool hats in it pker might like it, but add mounts, body or/and heads too :3)
Or if they drop their bombs and their arrows (People not happy)
Atleast maybe maximum 1-5 bombs or arrows?
And maybe it can drop a item that can be use at the token shop(same thing as the token shop, the week they deleted it you were able to get 0-5 token when you kill a baddy around the mod town but in dat time it was around the revolution/nexus idr but it was also near a rps... Oh and by the way maybe add a new R.P.S. that could be in that shop or atleast add some new R.P.S. around the map!)

LOL. you don't seem to get the point, it's to encourage PKing, and other normal player behavior. What would you rather do, go buy some bombs and arrows at the shops? nah. just kill a few players, gain some stats, and be on your way.

YES PLEASE YES PLEASE YES PLEASE

Why reduce the price of vendors? Honestly I don't see why bombs and arrows are even sold. It's not that hard to kill baddies.

So you drop 25% every death? Making it logarithmic decay. And I noticed you also can't drop below 5bombs/arrows.

Thallen · 08-03-2013

You guys only think you want gralats to drop. Trust me, you don't. All it'd do is encourage players to use some additional alternative account where they PK or store gralats. It'd probably result in people buying less packs overall, which is bad for the game.

One of the few cool things about PKing is it can be done very casually without too much risk, and when you risk losing something that you spent a lot of time getting or even paid for, people begin to get scared and refuse to do it anymore. It'd be pretty stupid. This coming from someone who has like 200 gralats right now, and would only benefit from that type of a change.

I very rarely buy arrows and never buy bombs. I only use bombs I get from pyrate bay quest to farm with,and I only buy arrows when I'm out and towering. Mostly to pk my own guild members when they eventually afk and are in the damn way.

I agree with Thallen gralat drops=Bad idea to much abuse.

I still think this is something really cool that could be added,but I think they should offer this as a limited random weekend type thing like nexus/Rev instead of full time. As somebody that towers a lot I just don't want to worry about losing my items to pkers. They could have graal city open pk the same way. Perhaps eventually they could have enough random weekend events to have something happening at least every other weekend.

Ohhhh that's why I was like surrounded by bombs every time I died while doing the pyrat quest .-. I thought the pyrats were just being generous that day or something lol

I know right.

It's all ready to go live, but we're going to wait for a good opportunity to release it. Not a good idea to add something controversial after a bad release.
