does the thief thingy here

It looks like he is very, very loaded.
Pureblade looks like a ridiculously easy target for you.
Roundtime: 3 seconds.

Pureblade traces a complicated pattern in the air with his fingertip. As he completes the gesture, five small globes of light extrude from the tips of his fingers and glow brightly as they position themselves around his body. (glyph of light spell)

does the thief thingy again

It looks like he is very, very loaded.
Pureblade looks like an impossibly difficult target for you.
Roundtime: 3 seconds.

little bit of an unbalancing boost I'd say, from bottom end of the scale to the top end of the scale in one cast

course this was after I stole from the guy he was guarding, neither saw a thing :)

As a side note:

You have:
1 silver, 17 bronze, and 149 copper Kronars.
10 bronze, and 177 copper Lirums.
1 silver, 15 bronze, and 79 copper Dokoras.

They need to reassess the concept of loaded :P

well, we all know that thief skill is broke, tells me that rockies never carry boxes and that sand sprites never carry anything. As for people, it only accounts for numbers of coins, not values.

should try it with more coppers, 1000 coppers marks as open a bank, where as a gold (same value) marks as a wagon load.

shrug, it's still buggy

And hopefully, like with appraisial, mark will someday just count in the base skills and ignores boosts. <g>

>Don't let it scare ya tho...kin steal steal past that spell(tho they will see that you did >even if they dont catch ya :(

Oh, I'm not scared, I can just eat a cookie and bring him back down a few notches anyways. Or, wait out his spell and steal when it's down.

just one correction there. what Pureblade, or anyone else that does that ability did is a Glyph--not a spell. Its called glyph of light. And is usually the only thing that causes a Paladin to ** differently than rediculously easy.

Although Our ability should have perception factor into as well as stealing ranks, as it is inaccurate when someone with 200-250 perception as a paladin **s as rediculously easy just cause they don't have stealing ranks.

not really. when Rock used to be around, he **d as ridiculously easy to me. Tho he'd usually catch me, because he had good perception. If perception were more of a factor, he would have looked like a harder target. He had no stealing ranks, being a paladin, and he left the realms shortly after GOL was implemented, so I'm speaking of pre-Glyph of Light here.

Lot more then 270 stealin eh... Thats a lot of stealin.. Good work

Well, if all of us are adventurers, and all of our marks are adventurers with the exception of the rare NPC or two wandering the streets, shouldn't our perceptions of 'lots of money" be what actually is lots of money instead of 1 copper? And besides, most of the items in the food shops cost around 5-200 something kronars (last time I checked anyway), so this must not be the case in Elanthia at least. Medieval England is not the same as Elanthia, which is what lots of people seem to forget.

G'day,

Working out things like this is one of the things I do in my idle moments, since it sort of applies to trader systems like commodities, mainly to make sure things are decently (at least consistently) priced. At this point, I'm leaning towards clerk wages in town as being around 10 plat per game year or in that ballpark. So 250 copper per day pays for their food, clothing and rent.

As to the food prices, I think you'll notice that in a lot of places that sell food, the prices are coming down quite a bit since they were very high initially. For example, you can get roasted chicken at the caravansary up near Dirge for 25 coppers. This is still more expensive than cooking your own meals, but then again, so is eating out compared to home cooking in real life.

Which of course doesn't really have much to do with the messaging you folks get when you mark someone, just thought I'd comment since trivia about "ordinary Elanthians" is a hobby of mine. If I were to comment about the messaging, I would almost think that the messaging should change as you increase in circle so that a player with X amount in their pockets might show as someone totally loaded to a 5th circler, but to someone 99th circle might appear to be poor as a church mouse.
