|
|
I'm working on an update now that will allow players to grind herbs into seeds.
All herbs can be placed into the herb grinder.
There's a 35% (or more, depending on herb rarity) chance the herb will be destroyed when a seed is created in the herb grinder.
Currently up to 3 herbs may be planted at a time in a player's lair, and any player may choose to plant herbs in any field (rooms with sector type: field).
This will mean a player basically may choose to consume about a third of their crops in order to generate enough seeds to replant their fields. Maybe there should be a way to get better at it? You tell me, in this thread. |

50% for the cloud seed but let's discuss it, if it were easier to get these would people sell and trade them? Or just hoard and whore them? |

I don't think there's really a ready market for consumables. I remember some level 20 necro or something a couple years ago trying to sell purples for like 500 a pop. Though a herb merchant would be pretty dope if some player could pull it off. |

This change is in, you may now produce new seeds at the herb grinder by putting in herbs.
The blood red seed and the cloud seed have a higher chance of destroying the herb when grinding seeds. These are destroyed 45% of the time and 50% of the time, respectively. Other herbs have a 35% chance of being destroyed when grinding seeds.
During testing I was able to get up to 8 seeds from one herb, but that was out of hundreds of tests. Your herbs may be blessed, or cursed, by the RNG |

Anyone can, the seed vendor is in Timeran, by the general store, anyone can plant the seeds in any field and after 240 Serin hours, the seeds turn into herbs who anyone can eat.
p.s. once the herbs are fully formed from the seeds anyone can grab them off the ground, so you need to pay attention to the hours and go collect them quickly after the 240 hours are up |
