Some smaller suggestions

Besides some better economics / price system (
Is there something about the game you don't like?) to make it more attracting to trade items I would love to see some improvement at two smaller points:
Getting bmp is too easy since the priest in fallhaven he produces indefinite amounts. To make the game a little bit more challenging, maybe for each new batch of 50 bmp he should require 10 further bones.
When you attack the leaders of Prim or BWM, their guards should also engage in that combat immediately to protect him. That's what they are there for. It looks a bit strange to see those guys standing around in that game just guarding an empty space between them. Maybe even all guards at those places should be attacking you after you proved to be not trustworthy.
Just my two gold.

This is an old but great idea that I fully agree with. I have always(2+ years ago) thought it was illogical that you weren't forced to gather more bones. Maybe we'll see this if and when a "hard difficulty" mode is implemented.

As has been suggested before, with more and more players and more and more ideas worth considering, putting a structured ideation process would benefit thegame and the players. Every idea gets official feedback, double and triple posting of the same ideas will be reduced, people can read already posted ideas and build on them, etc.
It mostly reduces the feeling of posting worthy ideas but no action being taken, hence the idea your input does not count.

you have to understand, we are not a company...
we are a small group of people doing this outta passion & pleasure.
not for money, or a job... or anything like that.
we just play, moderate, build, code, write, etc.
in our free time - when we get the chance to let that creative fire burn!
kinda like a hobby = that's why this game is free!
it's a novel idea to organize every idea suggested, from every thread...
but the amount of work needed is incredible!
if you had time to organize the whole forum,
i would beg for your help with other parts of the game!
we have tons of stuff we are trying to push out!!!

I do understand... the problem is that I do not have the time right now. I might have this time in a couple of months, then I would love to put such a system in place. I believe it would much be like a moderator, but then an ideator, specifically for all the ideas and suggestions.
Edit, back on topic, I would love to have a belt included as equipment. Maybe possibly something like a cloak as well?

Let me join on this quest, Ô Ideator.
Great idea, I really think we should organize better the ideas and suggestions but I sadly don't have much time now to help: exams

For me, I am busy with my business now. As soon as I have time, hope you will have time as well and let's join forces

we have a few ideas on how we wanna change things,
there are even a few threads about it...
but, again, time is the issue.
we are passionate about helping this game thrive,
but we gotta take care of life before we can help sustain the growth of AT.
it sounds like we are getting quite a few people who really wanna see more growth,
but are all equally strapped for large chunks of commitment / time.
i have some files on Google Drive that i could share with you,
granting you guys access to modify - if & when you can find the time.
that is... if you wanna take the next step?
just drop me a line!
the reason why we shut the Dev Corner down to the public,
was to get this ball rolling ~ so, yes - any help at all will have a huge impact!
we also have a wiki page that needs some love...
