Equipment scrolls

The lovely lady has a point would be cool to make your own stuff.
could get frustrating trying to find all the ingredients
Make it simple and it'll work aye?

With all the grinding that is needed to survive in Andor's Trail i am fairly certain that hunting the items needed shouldn't be too much of a problem for our adventurers...

Considering some have 10+ of the legendary items... I'm not worried at all about that aspect.

Keep it simple and keep the chances small of getting what you want (The really good items should have a low rate of creation compared to the others) and i think this could be a great fit in Andor's Trail.

Still working on this one. got all the basic outline set out now I've got nothing left to do but train myself might as well finish off boots idea for her and hopefully get at least part of it in the game!

Agree, idea pretty good. BUT! IMO, at first game should be finished, before doing such things bcz im sure it'll take a lot of time to do things like this)

And yea, it would be cool if you could do something with those furs, glasses and gems))

I've got nothing but time for this project...
alls my day consist of is eat, train, eat, train, eat and eat again then maybe a nap lol life of a bodybuilder
sides this project holds a special meaning to me and my dear departed boots already done a lot towards this it would be a waste for it to go unused...it also seems like a waste to have so many unused items that we could do something productive with

(edited sounded to much like Marcus for my tastes lol)

As the ongoing process of development evolves, it inevitably becomes time again to review values and characteristics of many of the game's elements, and make adjustments to better compliment new content. Nothing should be either too easy, nor too difficult.

I would suggest the introduction of an item, such as a blank scroll. A quest could be written to give the player an opportunity to attempt to locate a mythical forge. It could be there that separate rooms exist that would be specialized in the creation of all equippable and consumable items. Regardless of the list of items needed to create something, a blank scroll would be required.

At the heart of this forge could be a refiner's furnace, which would allow for your previously created items to be recycled into the raw materials for new, but predominantly more powerful items, by way of an achievement system. A value system and/or exchange rate for player created/recycled items would be something to discuss and establish, as it should be kept as simple as possible to keep the game fun, and playable by all. From some of the posts that I've read, many regarding character builds, it seems like the fun factor is being sidelined, at times, with all of the math that can come into play.

Obviously, the more detailed of a system desired, the more time and effort it will require. I believe that a certain expectation of balance should be in order. After all, the main focus and achievement of Andor's Trail shouldn't be overshadowed by a single facet. Right?

Anyway, the forge concept is something I have on my own back burner, but not as significant as suggested above. Anyone interested in creating content and running with the idea is welcome and encouraged to do so. Please just send me a P.M. to let me know, so I don't start going down that road myself when time allows.

I would like to note that any content that is either a work in tribute to, or honor of, boots, or a continuation of anything she started, is not anything that I have any specific knowledge of at this time, and therefore my post is not intended to conflict in any way with such an effort, nor should it be allowed to.

First of all wow ctnbeth13 that you very much for your detailed constructive. I can understand why my wife valued your opinion so highly.

I believe the reason that she came up with designated scrolls for each item is that. with out having a set scroll anything could be created. It was her way of add specific items and giving is all little things to work towards in our daily grinds.
Grind for a scroll, find the scroll, grind for the items needed to complete the manufacturing take the items and scroll to a blacksmith or seamstress include a fee and away you go.
Then there was the upgrade system purchase a scroll from the blacksmith add it to the previously made item along with some of the already used items to build it. Then receive a slight upgrade to the purchased item.
The destruction scroll went like this find or buy a scroll combine it with a item and receive some random items back.

The quest she had started was set for NorCity
it was basically
walk into a shop the merchant refuses to show you there wares stating there wares are to expensive for the likes of the hero. They ask for a small favor in return they will show you how to create items.
the favor is to find 12 fluffy hat scrolls from the local monsters.
bring the 12 fluffy hat scrolls back to the merchant/blacksmith
they then tell you if you can collect some items they will show you how to create the fluffy hat for a fee.

Im not quite sure who else was helping boots with this. P.M me if you want guys the help would be appreciated
once again thanks cntbeth for not wanting to step on any toes

Yummy, this sounds better and better.
And I also think that it would perfectly round up my own idea about evolving legendary items (see post in developer's corner: http://andorstrail.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=4344 - you might consider signing up for this part of the forum yourself!)

And I have a suggestion about creating Bootz her own little resurrection within AT: Why not call the blacksmith inside the refinery/furnace "Bootz"?!! Wouldn't that be nice?

[Zukero]

Actually I was thinking of more or less the same thing.
Having a merchant named Kayla that sells awesome boots. I'd place her in Nor City as I think she sided with the Shadowand have a quest like this ttopic's to create the exceptional boots of nickel.

thanks Link boots did a lot of work on it. made her happy to do something productive with what little time she had left.
I may get around to signing up for the development corner when I've worked some kinks out of this quest love the idea of a boots character
