Please make Killers unsellable
Please make Killers unsellable
They are worth nothing, relatively. There is no reason a level 55+ would want to sell one, please make them unsellable, or require a confirmation of some sort. Or at least, enable Sysops to replace sold killers, within a certain timeframe of their sale.
Somehow, im told, i sold my killer mace today, on my FM. im sure im not the first one, and im also sure i won't be the last. A weapon with so much work put into it, would NEVER be intentionally sold, for the pittance the merchant offers.
Please, do something about this. Offer a buyback window, or something of the such please.
Just appriased my Killer SS - it's worth 50 coins. no-one would make that sale.
Banach/Scorch, just made a great suggestion... make it worth 10million coins. then no-one COULD sell, but they could still be broken. via the #break command, if they were no longer wanted.

Re: Please make Killers unsellable
Agreed that there needs to be some sort of fix... unsellable or buyback sound reasonable.
Re: Please make Killers unsellable
I felt the same way when I accidently sold my +9 chipper staff.
I enchanted it myself so it cost me alot to do.
I also have a killer weapon and agree that it should not be so easy to sell those type items.
I propose Brad makes it harder to sell gear in belt and pouch.

Re: Please make Killers unsellable
Years ago, I spent a lot of time in forums complaining on another subject and I was told MANY times by players that we do not need a "coded" solution.
Accidental sellings have been a part of Drakkar for a long time. (I know I would like my dread LS back.) The "level" of the gear is immaterial since a BNR can be a cherished possession.
My FEELING is this: Players are responsible for their actions ... "do-overs" are not a part of this game. We do not need a coded change ... just for people to be careful.
I could get behind a coding change if it included ALL tied gear (just imagine the effect of that). Maybe add a "Pawn Shop" NPC for sale of tied gear.
thanks,
Ambrose

Re: Please make Killers unsellable
How about a NPC that can flag an item as unsellable. If that would be possible, that's the easiest solution i can see here.
Edit : How about an NPC, that when presented with a Cheque, and an item, could CHANGE the value of the item from xx to the value of the cheque? For example, a 25million coin killer. Couldnt accidentally sell that. Or a 25million coin +9 Chipuda Staff for example?

Re: Please make Killers unsellable
I agree, perhaps the value of high end items can be put above the sack limit making them impossible to sell. At the moment selling an item such as a fully maxed killer is just too easy a mistake to make. Loosing such an item for one miss click is a disproportionate punishment.

I like that idea ...Poldarn wrote:How about a NPC that can flag an item as unsellable. If that would be possible, that's the easiest solution i can see here.
though, in a catch 22 scenario, the flagging might make it impossible to make improvements in those cherished killer weapons
Re: Please make Killers unsellable
asked omni about my revised idea - trading a cheque to change the value of the killer to something higher than you can sell, he said changing the value most likely wouldnt change it's ability to be upgraded.
Re: Please make Killers unsellable
Be aware, any change to the game that allows you to increase the value of an item in order to prevent it from being sold is inherently flawed; armor damaging effects reduce an item's value and repairing does not fix this.
Not that that is necessarily a bad thing, as it presents a recurring cost.
It also may be more widely inclusive to go back through and change the value of quest items and certain randoms to 0, and then have vendors not want to buy such 'junk'.

Re: Please make Killers unsellable
I agree, I think you should be able to somehow flag an item to not be sold, as well as transmuted. The idea about making it worthless is good, I would also like to see it apply to transmute, maybe make transmute not pop worthless items.
Re: Please make Killers unsellable
A solution is now being tested. (Thanks Brad)
