Dark, Something to be aware of is that you can't actually resurrect yourself. You can only resurrect other people, so it would be useless to use on your own corpse.

The private bank is 1000 credits per year, and does allow you to bank from anywhere.

Re: [Audyssey] Private banking in Alteraeon?
Dark, Thanks for the heads up. I've added information about it to the help pages and faqs and made sure everything is consistent and up to date. As John mentioned, its 1000 credits per year, and you can use the bank from anywhere on the game at any time. The corpse retrieval is one at a time and happens the instant you buy it, assuming that your corpse is still out there. The underlying mechanic is that it transports your corpse to you and does a god-level resurrect, so you get back the maximum exp that a resurrect is allowed to return. I've also been thinking about adding a sort of one time pre-death insurance like prayer for the dying, but I don't know how well received that would be.

Re: [Audyssey] Private banking in Alteraeon?
Ben, The easiest way is just to use real money, but I totally understand that isn't an option sometimes. To help out, I set up a money market in the game to let players buy and sell credits anonymously to each other using gold, so you can use gold you get to buy credits. The price of a credit is pretty high though - it takes a lot of gold to buy a credit most of the time. I'd plan on a price of around a thousand gold per credit. Another option is to trade equipment or other things that players want for gold or credits. There's a couple of people on the game that have literally got all their credits simply by trading valuable stuff to others. I've found that it's often easier for me to get gold by trading than it is to try to run it myself. To take a look at the money market, use the 'mmarket' command in game, or try 'help money market'.

Re: [Audyssey] Private banking in Alteraeon?
Hi Denis. Thanks for letting me know. the main problem I tned to have with the hole resurrect business, is that odds are if I died, it's deep in some very hostile zone, and resurrecting my corpse will be fairly likely to get me killed again even assuming I can find it. This is why I've not learnt the resurrect spell myself. I'd actually love a way to just summon my corpse back, even at a hefty manner cost, then I could use resurrect. As to selling death related bennifits generally I'm not sure on that one. personally, I prefer not to spend real world money on items in games which get consumed without a perminant, or at least very long term bennifit, so while I am willing to buy practices to perminantly iprove my character and will very likely buy private banking, I'm not sure about paying for one time death related bennifits for myself. I'm not however saying it's a bad idea though, this is just personal thoughts. more generally, I personally love doing quests above everything else, and will even go back to lower level areas to complete them. I'd therefore love there to be a way to actually have some vague objectives assigned to random monster hunts for xp, say by having random hunting missions assigned in certain areas to kill a set number of random mobs for gold and possibly xp. Don't ask me why, but I just find it far more engaging to have a distinct goal in mind when i'm in an area I've already explored hunting for xp, than just running around doing hack n slash. indeed, some alternative methods to gaining xp and gold than fighting could be very nice. I love the explorer points system, and also often fish, and will start brewing just for the heck of it as soon as I have the skills, though unfortunately that could take a while being as thief and mage are my bottom two classes.
