Veteran Rewards
#13

+1 good idea
#14

All well and good but WHAT do you think should be given as a 'vet reward'?
#15

Bruce Wrote:All well and good but WHAT do you think should be given as a 'vet reward'?

- Cosmetics (Robes/Shrouds/Capes/Sandals/etc)
- Special Dye Tubs
- Bank Checks
- Special colored ingots/boards/etc
- Silver
- Ethereal Mounts
- Furniture

- Cosmetics (Robes/Shrouds/Capes/Sandals/etc) - Don't we have enough of this already with the nickel\silver stones? Maybe something like cloak\robe\sash that says its a vet reward?
- Special Dye Tubs - same as above.
- Bank Checks - Free money? Realllyyyyy? Rolleyes
- Special colored ingots/boards/etc - Again this would damage ingot market
- Silver - Maybe
- Ethereal Mounts - Would damage taming market.... badly...
- Furniture - This i don't mind. Statues and the like.

Really we cant give away anything that gives someone an advantage or would damage the economy.

As long as they are standardised (i.e. all the same for every player after same period of time) I wouldn't mind giving out:
- Rare mount only available via vet reward scheme (e.g. sapphire hued llama, or so on, can be more than one, but it would only be a normal mount, not ethy, no special stats, not bonded etc.)
- Does anyone remember the tunics with 4 quarters to them? I forget the name, they're in the game somewhere, may have been called fancy vest, something like that. Can't current be found anywhere, could add them as a vet reward.
- Other non-functional or at least non-mechanically functional, and non-trade-able in all cases, gizmos (the more interesting ones would take longer) such as:
* Animal dye (one use only)
* Name change deed
* Fame cap increase (such that you may die once and still remain Lord)
* Spell animation hue dye (either temporary and/or one use only)
* Some special deco items (e.g. some of the non-craftable alchemist bottles, brains/entrails, skeleton chained to wall, etc.)
* Pet zombie
* Boat dye
* Newbied named/dyed weapon (with damage set to 1 and non-poisonable, i.e. decorative only) - Would have to make sure this one can't be abused for training purposes either.

That's more than enough ideas, and some are probably not that appropriate because it's late and I'm tired and going to bed rather than thinking things through any further.

Also the usual disclaimer, just a GM, etc. etc., I promise nothing Tongue

Yeah, I'm kind of new to the shard so I don't know all of the items available yet, but also a custom title (requiring a LOT of time) could be nice, just something that will make it worth the wait... not like the UO vet rewards with crappy statues and lame robes.

Maybe even:

- Free statics, or deco

In any way, even if its a mere dye tub it gives the advantage already, if no one else has that hue, I can sell the clothes aye? Wink

Just giving some ideas, one of them will hopefully stick Smile

Uhm, free mounts, gold, ingots, and more death shrouds is a terrible idea.
I'm already sick of seeing shrouds...

However, I do like silver... but it would have to be a certain amount per veteran point.. (in other words, LIMITED.)
Otherwise, naw.

Now for loki's...

Animal Dye - Bad Idea. There are enough colored mounts all over the place, we don't need more. (especially if you there was a way to get multiple animal dyes.. thats still two or more single use).

Name change deed - Sure why not? Maybe the 1337 h4x3rs would finally change their names to something decent.
Fame Cap Increase - This is actually a GREAT idea. Although it would have to be an extra death tops, otherwise everyone would be a lord, but still broke.
Spell Animation Hue Dye - I like this. This wouldn't cause any harm.
Special Deco - Good idea.
Pet Zombie - Making me blush.
Boat dye - Awesome idea, in every way.
Newbied named/dyed weapon - iffy... you can already get this by gming all combat skills..
#23

ive suggested the idea, now its for ththeres e admin to decide on the prizes, we could sit here and suggest all day lol Smile i agree that all the prizes should be the same, and you can save them up for the things that you want , give useless stuff like deco. say maybe for 1000 gametime points, and then maybe at 5000 points be able to buy a special deco dye deed, and have like 8 differant colours to choose from :/ idk to much stuff to post.

Silver is a good idea, however still promotes the fact that you can get gold :/

name change deeds, this would be cool! as i hate my name now Smile 2 weeks and bored of it Big Grin
#24

Should said animal dye for non-mount, I meant like people could colour a pet like a pig or a dog or something Tongue

Didn't know you could already get such a weapon, since my player char is noob with no skills Smile
