Title: Speed Potions
Post by: Lilium on August 04, 2013, 12:38:12 pm
I'm curious as to how some people seem to mass-farm speed potions.

As far as I know, there are 3 methods.

1. Farm specialty monsters in turbo track
This is impractical because of the low drop rate, limited time, and limited monsters.

2. Cursed Spirit Quest
Although it gives 10 speed potions when completed, it's hard to imagine running 50+ characters through the Biolabs Entrance quest, and this quest (Though I guess sooooome people might).  Also, the quest appears to not be repeatable.

3. Pickpocket Quest
The amount that can be bought is limited to 3 (although multiclienting can apparently bypass this in a sense).  However, this doesn't explain some people's shop prices, as each potion is 15,000z + whatever the guy steals from you, unless someone really badly wants to just provide cheap speed potions to everybody and take a massive loss.

So how are people getting so many speed potions?
Is there some custom quest/monster that has them?

#3 is the usual thing I think, but what's up with the players pricing?  What are people vending them for?

It costs 15,000z per bottle from the npc, but I've seen vends that place it well below that price point.
(around 1/2 to 1/3rd the cost)

There was another method involving the town with the ugly name.  :(

A npc sold you speed potions at 1 zeny each to help you complete certain trials. This was obviously a mistake on the staff's part but a lot of people, including myself, were able to buy a huge quantity of speed potions before someone asked if this was deliberate or a bug.

They should have taken the speed potions from these players considering bans are sent out from other farming methods.  :angel:

From these players = the whole player base so it would have been easy. But all they did was remove the potions from the npc.

This wasn't considered a farming method since you had to do a long quest and a few annoying trials to be able to leave and store them if you didn't have a kafra clip. And even then you couldn't return.

At least they don't complain and make up a story about a "friend" botting :angel:

Lol.

I used it as a farming method, started vending them for 5k and people went crazy. :Da
And there was a Kafra Person in there, but Kafra Clip still made it easier, and you could Memo there, yay for someone giving me the warp.

I wonder if they could at least use the item logs to find the remaining 1z speed potions and delete them, and prevent people from further profiting off them or using them.

They are handling tickets from anthemRO so I'm sure they could do so if they wanted/had time to do so.

Yeah, but what if by then it's one of the ones that have already been sold to unsuspecting buyer a,b, and c for 5k

Then again...if they didn't do shit after the jewelry box fiasco, why move a finger for measly speed potions that are worth a fraction of just one jewelry box?
Title: Re: Speed Potions
Post by: Lilium on August 05, 2013, 10:06:51 pm
Well, they could at least delete any left in possession of the players that bought them for 1z.

I'm going to assume that they can't easily do that either. Well, looks like I know how to better improve the staff functions for WotR. Gotta love learning from lazy developers mistakes.

I know why would you make up some story about a friend and cry about how you was wrongfully ban and would like your gears back when you got caught breaking the rules. So yeah keep trying to act like your honest about the shit you did

Could have fooled me. Someone has beef with me obviously. Sad.

Edit: Last time we talked, wasn't I apologizing for the loss of a death of a recent family member? Just because you're in pain don't give you the right to sit around and act like scum.

Lol, you're the real scum by bringing up my family when I never said shit about yours. No beef with you, just people should know you're a liar.*

Had to help you fix your mistake. Also, what about Jen, Jane, Kerax, and everyone else? Hypocrite.

You shouldn't have brought up his family matters on the forum, thats abit uncalled for.

Just my 2 cents.

I wasn't bashing. I felt bad for the guy. And to see him acting like this after I express my apologies out of respect? I think people just needs to see he's a dick. Kind of like he's trying to say I'm a liar, right?

@Justin
Do not sit here and make an attempt at attacking me and not expect an attack back. The only reason I didn't turn around and be a dick about the family thing is out of respect for the one who passed. It is truly a sad day when a relative passes.

Edit4Jen: No, not a liar. I was referring to what everyone was banned over.
