Yes, 100% could be allowed for those. > > But another idea came in discussion with someone else: > > As the problem with these creating-skills is, that items in crossfire > stay until the player enters quit and his appartment and his inventory > is deleted, or he drops the item on a map which gets resetted. > > So with the jeweler skill in place the flood of god-like-rings has to be > prevented.

Weapon improvement doesn't really have this same problem, because the weapon is tied to the person that improves it (it is renamed). So yes, a high level player could have 20 really cool weapons, but he couldn't give them to others to use, as they would be unable to use them. > > What if rings would wear off with time.

This idea has in general been discussed in the past for just normal objects (objects get damaged over time, needing repair). IIRC, while it seems like a good way to use money, there was some concern that this would just make things bothersome to maintain. However, if players are making the rings, I suppose it is reasonable that they could break down over time. > >> But the real point is figure that in not too long a time, there will be >> high >> level jewelers, armorers, etc, about.

But there shouldn't be rings that reduce the effects of damage, only the effect type rings. _______________________________________________ crossfire mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.metalforge.org/mailman/listinfo/crossfire
