Donation Racks 01/14/2010 12:30 PM CST
Is there a bandwagon for donation box concerns yet?

Is there a good reason someone dumped three dozen bronze armbands on the crossing rack? Maybe the point of that just escapes me.

I would Really like a way to deal with the stuff that ends up on these things that belongs either in the cleric donation chest or the wood bin.

Especially in Haven where there's no general donation box.

Did you actually check them or just look at the short description? Because they're probably cambrinth.

Hey, you're right. They're verby cambrinth at that.

...I'm still mildly annoyed at there being fourty-odd of them on there.

They go pretty quick in my experience.

The bronze ones are also lower capacity which means newbies can use them.

WTB new cambrinth items being sold at the Crossing Artificer.

Oh? Well that works, then. What do they fill to?

...for unrelated reasons, then, we still need a way to manage the rack.

Also, what level are the donation racks open for? My third level Warrior Mage can't get stuff off there.

I do think the donation racks could be better organized. I don't even know how much can be on them but it seems like whenever I look it is overflowing.

Maybe add a sorting system, placing items into bins by type (Armor, Weapon, Juggling/Origami, Music, Magic, Misc...). Add a similar command to SHOP. Allow mentors or some other class of players (circle based?) to prune. Suddenly it is a very usable system, but would enough players use it for it to be worth it?

Seriously. Do we have a communist system? There's no way the busiest city in the world wouldn't sell basic magic items.

For true newbies? Really?

Sure, for Haven you just trudge through mud, pass a giant volcano, and them swim across a giant river. It only takes like 5 web pages worth of maps to get there.

Or for Shard, you swim across a raging river, wind your way through a spider web, and the city of Leth, past killer snowbeasts, and then you climb through a massive chasm.

Even better, you can skip the survival tests by bringing coin of the correct currency, and waiting a long time.

In my case, I think it was at birth.

If I remember correctly, there is an area, somewhat inobvious, in the WM guild that is accessible only for low circle characters that has cambrinth rings available for sale.

There is indeed. From outside I believe it's, go door, climb stair, e, go door, go door. It's near the ranges, I believe, but through a different portal. There were a ton of cambrinth armbands/pendants/anklets on the donation rack. I couldn't get one on my 3rd circle character for some reason, and I'm not sure why.
