I think a simple solution would be to ban the use of them in PVP. along with a bunch of other buff foods speed pots etc. and make it more about skill than how many millions you spend on consumables. Especially with the new PVP Armor sets.
Wait did you really just type that? You do know what game you play right? Runes of Magic, where you can BUY your gear in complete and full. So by your theory we should "ban" people that spend...hundreds of millions on gear..because gear doesn't = skill.

Yes i Just typed it, We are talking mostly about a GM food here, not a crafted items, instance drop etc. And yes i think the speed pots interfere with seige, especially to those of us that are not on the east coast next to the servers, there is a buff already in seige for faster speeds. Also i said nothing about gear except that there is a new PVP set, and that set when combined with GM foods makes it nearly impossible to drop certain players reguardless of how much skill is used. And to me skill is based on your ability to play your character, not how many buffs, pots and immune foods you use while DIYCE takes care of your combat.

in before close.........keep on topic guys.......
i dont think that banning pots and buff foods from siege is a good way to show skill,if you want real skill battle we would need to go into siege with all the same gear and stats the same.
if everyone automatically had the lvl white gear with no stats then sw would be all about skill.
i was one on reni server that had quite a few of these egg rice dumplings but i collected for 3 years and i still could not spam them in sw for long.

That would be why so many Palenque players had alts on Reni :), No but seriously alot of people on Palenque are from South America and do have some lag issues due to geolocation. And i agree with Timthum that seige should be more of an even match and not who the GM's favored years ago.

Best idea ever!! Like the fact you cant use HP pots in SW, you shoudnt use GM foods also.
Just have some damn fun! That's why we play games right?

I do find it funny that how flexible the English language is.

'Legitimate' = 'standing begging on multiple alts for unique, game balance altering foods from GMs who give vast quantities to some individuals and not to others, unevenly over server populations.'

I admit there is a 'not hacked' definition step missed out there, but I likes to call a spade a spade.

'I begged for them fair and square' :D

Well I was one of the "not to others" given the time zone difference I was hardly around it seemed when the GM's came to hand out freebies, the fairly sizeable amount I have atm are from an item shop sale where the dumplings were bundled with tier 7 runes (and at a good price) during I believe RoM US's 2nd Anniversary events (circa 2011). Just buying enough runes for your gear, let alone enough to go to tier 8+ runes would've netted you a shedload of dumplings...

should just sell all those item shop items in item shop ffs, i mean people would buy them as they need them, everyone loves em, except for the people that dont have them, sooo instead of just making more people upset, or bringing the happy people down with the miserable, why not just make it fair, and start re-selling them, this game is 100% about buffs, buffs, buffs, and debuffs to your enemy etc, at same time, put sigils in item shop too ROFL. ye right.

Speed pots interfere with siege war, no, really? come on a rogue who can super speed while in hide, how does that interfere with anything loll.

Are we to remove the buff from the stable also? because you can't get your guildies to invest in ressources to level it? That is why this game has a crafting part to it, you know the thing that is tedious, long and hard to attain, No Cerb not talking about you loll. But seriously, if you can't get speed pots, food or other potions, well you better start crafting.

Guildies have all the food they need free in our guild, they supply some of the mats and runes to make them and i take care of the rest ;-)

Being helpful to others and working together truly works wonders, people should do it more often.

I doubt they ever sell them again. I remember a gm or cm post a while back that said they unbalance the game. I think referring to instances.

Wednesday, July 31st 2013, 6:29pm

yeah I think that they probably don't want them in the game cause it really does push up survivability in instances... which is the reason we hold on to ours lol. Good idea though, OP items, just don't offer them anymore and let the current stock just dwindle till gone.

Selling them in the IS is a terrible idea. Cos then they would become par for the course, instances would then be balanced to include players buffed by them, and the game just got more expensive for absolutely zero reason.

I love being called a hacker when I stack Herald + Thunder Force + Mad Rush 3 + Relentless Hunter title + Spellweaver pot + Godspeed pot, go into Hide, then outrun some poor clown on a Rune Disk and take them down from behind and pop back into Hide afterwards. I suppose I could toss Sprint into the mix, but it might not stack and would be a waste anyway.

It's a matter of lrn2play and lrn what other classes can do.

Back on topic, sort of.

I could support a change to Siege where ERDs Hot Stew, Laor Forest Tarts, and perhaps such things as the standard and IS wedding foods are changed to be like the Phirius pots, waters, and elixirs--not usable in Siege. I could not care less about them being used in instances or other regular content. I could also not care less whether one server was "blessed" by a "rogue" GM showed up in the middle of oh-dark-thirty and handed out bazillions of ERDs . And I could not care less if ERDs and other unbalancing foods are no longer handed out to all and sundry on *any* server now. Because, really, their use in Siege is actually what most people in this thread seem to be complaining about.

The only problem i see of getting them on IS is that people selling them for 500K to 1M each would be done with those prices, loll. They would be the ones that would be mad. Put them on AH = more diamonds spent= more money for Gameforge, tyvm.

So you are saying more people would buy diamonds to buy OP food to actually be at exactly the same point they were before the food was introduced? Really Zid?

And more people would spend dias on the food meaning less being sold to other players, increased dia consumption for everyone, in short an increase in the rl cost of the game. But people would be happy about this why?

Sometimes I feel like I just can't understand the most simple of things...

Do you stay on the ground a lot when you die from rogues saying random things about them cheating using hide? Are you one of "those guys", especially being a knight/anything/anything level 80, no rogue on the US server if you are geared respectively can 1 hit you, using 1 single skill.

You can use every speed with the exception of spellweaver and THEN use an invis pot and travel faster/as fast than that rogue you keep crying about, oh my god an invis knight moving as fast as a super speed rogue. Let's ban and complain about it! Jfc....

People spend/spent thousands since this game has started to be better than the next person so why wouldn't they spend thousands more to sustain 30% more pdef consistently in siege or in instances. The ERD would eventually, if sold again w/ diam, end up on the AH so people who don't spend astronomical amounts of RL money to be better than you can buy them too.

I don't think it's a win/win but just the thought (as mentioned before) of banning food just seems like an overall bad idea.

What? The game is balanced enough as is!
I would drape myself in velvet if it was socially acceptable.

This is a funny discussion.

In almost every other forum thread, you guys are complaining that RoM costs too much yet here you seem OK with adding stuff to the IS that will mean an increase in the cost to play. :D

Hmmm....

KatalanOrk clearly is a nincompoop...

Either that, or everyone else is? ;)
