I think it would be nice if mages would be able to make magic scrolls, on the same patterns as you can enchant gems, you could enchant a paper by spells.

Then anyone could use that scroll to cast magic without magical knowledge, so a crafter or fighter character could use identifing, healing or other type of spells.
The power of the spell and the duration would depend on the quality of the scroll, and that on the way level of the mage who created it.

Scroll would be crafted from papers on the same way as you make enchanted crystals from gems.
It could use an ‘intermediate object’ or multiple glyph enchanting on a single paper would do it too.
For example, if a spell is a 3 glyph combination then the crafter would need to use those 3 glyphs (in the right order?) to apply the spell on the scroll.

Using the scrolls would work through the /use command.
/use Scroll of Healing Flash
/use Scroll of Analyze Dweomer
/use Scroll of Fist of the Volcano

The script should consider what is targeted, if an item is targeted, you could use identifing, if a mob or player has been targeted you could use the spell on the target too for attacking or buffing.
You also would be able to cast spells on other players that are only allowed now to cast on yourself like Dome of Perfection.

I already discussed it with weltall, who doesn’t see technical limitations in implementation yet.

I Was going to make some apple jam biscuits recently as requested by Harnquist but I could not for the life of me find them in any of my cookbooks (I have all four!). Since Harnquist asked for it, I was pretty sure I could make it and took a guess that it should be in the Pastry Chef book that has the jam recipe and open biscuits. With that book in Mind, I was able to make the Apple Jam Biscuits, but I never did actually FIND the recipe. I checked with another cook just to make sure, and she couldn’t find it either. She also pointed out that the Bread with Apple Jam is also missing (the other Bread with Duppong/Teveran/Macca/Joopiner Jam and Duppong/Teveran/Macca/Joopiner Jam Biscuits, as well as the Bread with Butter and Buttered Biscuits are also missing.)

In the Making Enchanted Armor book I discovered that the skills you cannot do are not grayed out (AFTER I tried something, was told I didn’t have the skill, and looked more closely at my book! It does say the usual “WIth higher skill you could blah, blah, blah” but it’s the same color as the rest of the text).

The Mace Making Practice Points seem to be inconsistent with other crafting. With a skill level of less than 20, everything only takes 5 seconds to make regardless of the complexity of the item being crafted.
Wondering if a higher blacksmith skill is weighted more. Only getting 5 pp per item crafted will extend leveling ability time dramatically.

This is actually for version 0.6.5.

When I craft Small Battle Axes I find that all skill gains are in Blades, Blacksmithing, and Mace making. I feel that somehow the skill gains for Axe making have been replaced by Mace making. That makes it harder to build up axe skill to turn the kits into a finished axe.

Axe handles need changed to blades making

I made barberry extract and ended up making batch of valuable barberry extract. Seeing as barberry extract is not a finished product but an ingredient it should not receive any special properties from crafting.

If you take a heated blade out of your hand while hammering it the work will not be interrupted until the work duration if finished. If you return it to your hand before the work is finished the transformation completes successfully.
THis appears to only work if you replace the item with itself, substituting a different identical item or a completely different item causes an interruption.

I would find it extremely useful if I could select from 1, 5 and 10 amount when shift clicking a stack of raw materials. This would allow me to improve the efficiency of smelting by picking enough material to cast into stocks of the various types. I could then dump a stack of molten ore into the caster and shift click it to spread out the ores into castable portions. obviously the 5 and 10 amounts are for casting stocks from precious and non precious materials.

It would be useful for this to only apply to molten ores in the furnace as there is no need for ingot/stock to be smelted in these particular numbers.
It might be also useful in a forge or other crafting container to have the ability to set to an arbitrary amount when processing ingots or stock for weapon/shield/armor parts.

Perhaps instead of overloading the shift click in this way using the alt click instead would work but this might cause a problem for Apple type computers.

Changed task description to clarify request.

I would like it very much if crafting were to be redesigned more like combat. Instead of one action that takes many seconds to complete and generates only one practice or experience reward make it so that each hammer blow is considered and eligible for a reward. For example at level 10 it takes me about two minutes to turn 12 heated ore into 4 shield handles and I get one practice point and some experience at the end of that time. Under my proposed change it might take just as long but each hammer blow on the ingots would receive a success chance roll that would increment the percentage done. A series of low rolls would result in a failure, either junk metal or very low quality handles and a series of high rolls would result in faster time and/or higher quality handles. This would be analogous to hitting a mob until one of you is dead.

I believe this would be more fair in the long run and if it would seem to make great quality items too available the chance to succeed could be reduced.

I’m a new user and I just had a very frustrating experience, so I want to propose an improvement.

I requested a guild mate to craft me some chain armor, and when I got it done I picked the Arm piece i was wearing and tried to exchange by the new one. By the gods, the quality-50 armor merged with the quality-300 one and I got two quality-175 armors. Without any confirmation.

I think the merge-on-stack system is fine for many crafting situations, but merging armor stats is a unexpected one. I fail to see why one would want to merge a higher armor with a much lower one. This doesn’t even make sense: if you mix water and herbs it’s ok that you get an infusion, but you can’t mix a chain mail with another one to instantly get two different ones.

I requested a GM to revert the stats and he said that this is the same situation as when one sells or gives away an item by mistake. I think it is not the same thing. This is not a mistake; it is common to exchange items in the inventory to organize or save space, and having these “side-effects” in place can make a simple inventory management a surprisingly bad experience for new users like me. :(

TL;DR:

1. Please review if it really makes sense to merge armors or weapons. I don’t see the use for it, and it sounds illogical, but probably I’m missing something.

2. Please consider adding a confirmation to actions with clearly bad side effects during inventory management, to avoid the frustration, specially for new users.

3. Please consider adding a toggle/checkbox to the inventory to turn on/off automatic item merging (disabled by default to avoid sad surprises like mine).

Thanks for all the hard work, guys. :)

The description of the “Armor Repair Kit” says
“To use it equip the armor and type /repair <location> in the chat window. Example /repair boots ,/repair torso ,/repair gloves ,/repair arms” according to the examples it should be /repair pants to repair the “<armor type> Pants”.

When working on bow making at the Arena smith table: if you /use the table, when the progress bar shows that you are done, instead of being done with whatever you’re doing, you get a message that reads “You interrupted your work when you moved away” without having moved at all.

I’ve repeated it multiple times working on a few different things, but haven’t tried at any other smith tables yet.

The book shows

Powdered [Raw Material]
Grind [Raw Material] into Powdered [Raw Material] using Alchemist Table with Wooden Mallet
Hammer [Raw Material] into 3 Big Chunks of [Raw Material] using Alchemist Table with Wooden Mallet

Both using Alchemist Table with Wooden Mallet
When only the 3 big chunks is correct

These 2 values for experience should be merged for a less verbose log.

Certainly happens with Sapphires, making q300 Enchanted Sapphires gives no practice in a way.

I had heard that over a skill threshold, repairing weapons/armour does not reduce maximum quality.
Yet I repaired a weapon with 201 skill (with jewellery) and dropped from max quality of 200 to 199.

Maybe the Jewellery isn’t working properly, as without it, I would be under the threshold I had heard about.

Also Bones attribute was not removed, the whole reason I repaired it at 197/200.

Maybe this is as intended, but if Bones cannot be removed, then getting a Masterwork Bones Platinum Sword from your first and only run through of the Keen Edge quests (currently not completable) is xtremely bad luck after the time it takes to get 100 in sword (even more in UE).

Working with Stock and Working with Rare Stock books are missing the recipes for heating ingots/stocks in the forge in 0.7.39.

For crafting where the container automatically starts working when an item is placed in it (stock casting tank, forges, furnace, skillets etc), allow the “prepare” button to place multiple items in at once either through selecting a quantity at the prepare stage as a stack and/or adding a “fill container” option for things to be placed until all the container slots are full/the player runs out of the required materials.

ex. When casting stocks, after clicking prepare, it moves the first set of sludges into the stock casting container, but then if I click prepare again while the item is still in the container, it won’t let me place another item until it’s removed even though I can move another stack of sludges in manually. it would be nice to be able to automate that as it will remove a lot of clicks and reduce the time needed to process materials.

If you are in a location that has both fishing and harvesting available, if you successfully harvest an item and do not move, but switch to fishing you get a warning saying “You cannot fish in the same place twice” even though you have not fished at this location.

If you successfully catch a fish and do not move, but switch to harvesting you get a warning saying “You cannot harvest in the same place twice” even though you have not harvested at this location.

This is probably true of mining if there are area overlaps, but I have no idea if this actually exists anywhere.

example location for fishing/harvesting: /pos 109482 -757679 20767

For an example.

In the Catalog of shields book, ‘Bronze Spike’ becomes un-greyed and therefor visible as craftable when blacksmith hits 15. but you also need many levels in shield making before you can actually make the item. If I push Blacksmith to 200 and leave shield making at 0, according to the book I can make every item in there, despite that clearly being wrong.

The skill checks being made on the crafting books need to look at primary and secondary and as many skills are needed to make an item to correctly mark it as something you can make.

this bug will include any bug related to crafting.

With

- a skill level of 218 (i.e. 186 natively)7
- an unpolished speciment of Q300 to work on

I created a final result for an enchanted gold necklace of Q126

This is an extremly unrealistic random outcome.

For a while I have been trying and failed ot make Octarch’s delight and Lionfish Souflee.

In both cases the mixing in a wooden bowl didn’t work.

The new crafting interface now shows that there is baking skill required in both cases which doesn’t make sense given the tool set or the recipe book involved
.

Currently, all crafting requires a full setup of equipment (fixed-in-the-world crafting containers) for that craft. This makes sense for some crafting skills such as blacksmithing and to an extent alchemy; however, basic cooking and herbalism (and other crafts TBD) should be possible with only portable crafting containers (such as a campfire and pan or a simple, portable mortar and pestle). This would also require new crafting books: “Campfire Recipes” anyone?

Having to use the Working with Stock book simply to heat steel/ingots for forging makes for a silly amount of swapping back and forth between Working with Stock and Book of Blades. It’d be simple enough to add the steps for heating stock and ingots to the Book of Blades…

Right now, the only jewelry metals available in the game are gold, silver, and platinum, which leaves Ynnwn out in the cold RPwise. Considering that IRL, copper alloys (brasses and bronzes both) were and are still used for jewelrymaking – it would be logical to add those at some point down the road, to provide at least *one* Ynnwn-compatible option…

Once you creating alchemy components which assume various combinations, like Air Essence (cerating Frost Arangma Essence Mix OR rectifying Mix of corroded Riverling Bones) AND you have a “Riverling” set of ingredients in your inventory, the “Check Prerequisites” button displays “Frost Arangma Essence Mix: Missing 1” and “Prepare” button does not appear. Because it is listed first and no further check is happening.
My suggestion is to add checkboxes or radio-buttons to recipes like these in order to help “Check Prerequisites” button detect existing set correctly.

Grinding Kingsfoil or Wyn Pulp to Paste works in a reasonable time.

But trying the same with Red Mangrove or Sinaflar takes much more time than my Mental Stamina (669) offers. The result is a "Pile of Dust". Did someone move a decimal position?

bright and murky essences are made by processing 1 of the 3 essence mixes resulting in 3 product.
with higher skill you can process 2 at a time into 6 product.
to process 2 at a time you have to cut off 2 from the stack and transfer them, very time consuming.
to process 1 you dump a stack in the container and shift click on it til they are spread out.

every other higher skill same process I have looked at gave more product per ingredient.
For example 2 crystal sludge –> 5 crystal essences
higher skill 1 –> 3

I noted that previous bug report 4573, similar in nature, has been closed. I reached out to GMs and it was confirmed that once a broadsword has been furrowed into a blade then the only option is to then make it into a kit. The flow as of 04/04/2015 looks like stock>alpha>beta>delta>brittle>dull>rough>blade (gap) heated>super>red>stock.

If the expected results of working broadswords is to have them be a one time blade, then these extra steps (heated>super>red>stock) are confusing. If the expected results is that the broadsword should be able to be worked from stocks to blade to stocks then currently the step to make the (final) blade into a heated blade is missing.

I would suggest a specific hunting skill to “loot” animals instead of the current lottery system giving hides, claws, eyes, and whatnot.

Currently, anybody who can kill something can get enough parts by slaughtering a big amount of creatures. The skill would clearly separate the warriors from the hunters. Anyone can probably cut a rat’s tail, but skinning the animal is a bit more complex. And so on, some beasts will be more difficult to skin than others. Even proper meat is not obvious to extract from a carcass.

As a side effetc, maybe a killer could carry back the entire beast to a person capable of skinning/cutting it, if he doesn’t have the skill himself (it looks like some people can carry 400 kgs out there).

This incidentally could create a real market between players, akin to the economy currently existing around ore and weapons. Obviously, some PCs are going to be cooks, leatherworkers or alchemists.

This of course doesn’t apply to looting rogues, unless one can think of using human parts in some dark alchemy, or just carrying ears or heads as trophies.

Since there is bronze (and more and more people work with it), and there is also zinc besides the tin to possibly combine with the copper - make brass available.
What other use was there for zinc anyway?
The actual mix should be similar to bronze, with zinc in place of tin to go along the copper.

Would also be great if there were finally possibilities to craft something out of those alloys…

Wanted to bring up this idea to see how it would be taken in.

Given the difficulty training the skill itself involves, why not consider making the consumable repair kits for both weapons and armor craftable as part of the Tool Crafting skill?

Could be done in such a way that 1 steel stock would make 5 repair kits, or 2 steel ingots would make one.

This way, players can keep themselves supplied without having to keep spending money at the VERY NUMEROUS kits they’ll have to buy to raise their skill levels.

I need potions : curse ,diseases,paralyzation, and poison for completion as well stupidity potions that lower magic way skill for shoort duration

Crafting HA
combine 4 q300 medium steel plates with 1 q50 chain arms give worse quality then
combine 2 q300 large steel plates + 2 q300 medium steel plates with 1 q50 chain torso
there is the same amount of q300 ingerdients but its in one stack for arms and 2 stacks for torso
edit Quality 175 vs 227

When I learned about the new transformation mode I took it upon myself to clean up our guildhouse.

In the process I removed many old items from the map and stored them in containers instead.

While I did this occasional crashes happened, which on returning seem to have deleted items stored in these containers.
I have lost roughly 70% of player generated/crafted items, some of historical value this way, as well as many player crafted weapons and armours of highest quality.

A very alarming issue.

If my asumption is correct the server automatically deletes any item that it suspects to be involved in crashes. While this maybe desired behaviour in terms of the technical side of things, in terms of a persistent game world this is REALLY, REALLY bad, if true.

There are numerous (at least dozens) complaints in the forum that (especially under Windows) the errorlog.txt contains only uninteresting default errors which are not at all critical, but misses really useful and critical entries instead.

The whole “error console” concept is nonsense for Windows users. Windows builds don’t output anything useful in the console they are started from, and this would be the only console where output could be redirected to files.

If you call the client with the parameter “–console”, a new console is opened, but this one can’t be redirected with “>” or “2>”, you would have to mouse-select as much as you can keep in its history. Most PC users will not know enough about Windows to tweak this console window, maybe not even know how to select and copy from it. On Windows 7 it is even worse, when the client crashed, the new console is nearly disabled, so you almost cannot select and copy text from it after a crash.

My client is crashing when my char sees a Magic Wand user. I’m on a Mac. I suppose its caused by those new Master Wands. This is very nasty…

If you take a rare looted item out of a bag, try to equip it, but can’t because of Stat requirements, then train a stat, drop the bag and pick it up again, the item disappears.

Then if you try to store it there are 2 copies, and the server crashes if you store them. Item lost after restart.

Crash and item loss can be avoided if you relog before storing.

Magic light is giving no additional light in game after casting it.

on lowest graphics settings no light
on medium no light
on high there is light
epic graphics settings it is showing light

spells are laggy one less others more , players cry for the lag during events, cant imagine how it would laggy with 300 players online
so ingame ability to disble the effect would litle solve it
we could have slider simiar to grafics detail distance and when its set to 0 all efects would disabled , small distance would allow to see own spells and not get lagged by others

would be great if somone review the effects if there is way to optimalize it and make less laggy

When there is foggy weather in the game, some 2D textures will have white boxes around them. The most well-known instance where this happens is with the target effect under an NPC’s feet. I think this also affects 2D grass textures like at the magic shop forest. Basically, the fog makes transparency in certain textures visible by making them white.

Since the quest chains were introduced, and many indirect prerequisites for the availability of a quest, I now waste a lot of time scanning each NPC for the very few which have a quest available at the moment, regarding my current list of completed quests, over and over again.

The additional vague hints which are being added to the end of quests are not sufficient because on one hand they may fail, and on the other hand they help better when I just started a new character, not when my experienced character is already in the middle of many quest chains.

I don’t expect a big fat rotating question mark above an NPC’s head; it can well be a less remarkable change – like a different color, outline, or font style for the label, or a slight translucent highlight effect.

Since players rely heavily on log files, and since some files like saved books and screenshots are created by the client in various folders, could the installation package please create shortcuts to these folders in the start menu on windows, and whatever the equivelant is on other platforms? Would certainly make it easier for players to find them when they need them.

Also either set the psupdater shortcut to include the CheckIntegrity flag as default or create a second one with that flag.

It happens for me always again after “opening” and closing nodes. Sorry, haven’t found a way yet to reproduce it every time. Might add some more information here once I find out more ;)

It dispalys the newly opened node above a previously already opened one.

The leaver leg armor and appentice robes on Enkidukai clamod isn’t working. this might be the same for all enkidukai’s.

The message presented when looting a dead NPC with nothing to loot is “… has nothing to be looted”.
While this is valid English, it is more natural to say “… has nothing to loot”.

6 times in 2 hours since the update the game crashed. Returned to version 0.6.1 and it stopped. Tried lowering graphical settings to no affect.

friends list does not display all friends after using command line without add/remove(onoff), may remove other entries.

starting with no friends:

‘/buddy abcdef’ = ‘abcdef is already on your buddy list’ (refresh friends window, abcdef was added)

‘/buddy abcdefgh’ = ‘abcdefgh is not on your buddy list’ (refresh friends window, abcdef is no longer listed, abcdefgh is not listed)

‘/buddy abcdef add’ = sometimes added, sometimes not

I would like to have a specific means of muting certain people’s “music”. It’s a shame if you have to turn off all musical instruments to be rid of the “Listen to me practise my same song for any amount of hours if you want to craft here” people.

So it would be very nice if /ignore commands would also affect audio output triggered by the ignored person. Not sure how feasible that is technically, though.
