I've just finished my new website called The Dragon's egg. There, you will be able to order boxes online so you can work your lockpicking skills.

Check it out

The funny part is the cost. Wow is all I have to say. Who would be desperate enough to pay 5plat for boxes from those creatures. Even if it was for a 'younger' type person who couldn't hunt the monster normally, I doubt that kind of player would even have that kinda of money then to buy it.

The drop rates on boxes are pretty high, it's not like it's that hard to get 10 boxes in under 30 min.

Or spend 30 minutes in a combat scenario where I'm actually learning, make that five plat from hunting there, and use that 5 plat to get even more experience from the boxes.

Sure I'm not making as much money (only what was in the boxes I picked) but I'm not spending any money either, and I'm getting that extra disarm/pick experience.

While I doubt I'll personally be buying boxes from there anytime soon, had I let my disarm/pick slack a little more I certainly might have done so.

You all must understand, this business isn't for everyone to use per say. There is a niche I am hitting like those that went slack in the lockpicking skills, those that can't hunt all the time ie empaths, clerics, and traders, and then there are those that are so filthy rich that they can afford the prices. I have about 35+ customers and they all have their reason for using the business. Its a niche, what can I say.

Ehh good for you, either way could ya not spam on the paladin boards? there is a rule that you can only post the same message/advertisment in 2 places. Kinda amazed this post was never pulled to begin with.


P.S. you make a good point about traders and empaths, I concede in that. Thou I still think the prices are abit high for the creature level of the boxes. Now if you charge 5-7 plat for 10 adanf boxes... well then yeah I can see it, but for goblin/troll boxes?
