Found a nice bug lol. Once you hit the 999 cap on shards the ones you get don't create a new stack.

Any other place to see our stats besides the point allocation? Preferably show these said scaled stats lol

You sure the crystal thing is a bug? Maybe they meant it that way?

[RedIce]

Well you're right. I assume it is a bug because of how quickly I amassed 999 shards. If it isn't a bug, I feel that it should be changed anyways lol.

And I found that stats are shown on the gear page, but they aren't shown scaled assuming stats really do scale. I'd assume they scale to a degree but I haven't seen them scale. Outside of +HP they don't "visually" seem to do a lot.

That Puglist looks pretty sweet

Looking a bit forward in terms of economy and "in LS economy"..I'm noticing virtually every drop is used some how. There isn't "vendor trash". All mob drops are used some how in some craft. So while some items may npc for nice chunks of gil like various pelts, if we want to have a semi stable LS economy we really should avoid npcing stuff.

For example this sheepleather harness thing i've been looking to make requires a "lv 7" alchemy craft with mats from NPC or mobs. Then with that craft you use an item from quarrying (off hand dig of mining) which makes a dye... which you use in a leather craft to make a leather.. then you can finally make the harness assuming you have the other mats lol.

For another leather piece of gear I had to go through armorcraft and clothcraft to get the mats..sheep leather was the only leather item lol. Crafts also have sub craft level requirements

[RedIce]

Thinking a bit more on the idea and selling mats and stuff to LS members at NPC price I think would work, so even if an NPC does sell the item it'll be cheaper to keep it in house and you'll get the same gil as though you sold it from NPC. Since we're all not on at the same time obviously keeping some form of list as to what people are looking for and selling would probably be a good idea. Compiling a list of NPC prices would be good too.

[Drakkan]

We should have some kind of crafting request thread. That way people can check it out and keep things in mind in case they come across a needed item.

[RedIce]

Yea definitely. I'm sure we'll add actual forum sections when we figure out what we need from a forum lol
