Start of Bulk giftable items?

http://board.us.runesofmagic.gameforge.com/board272-runes-of-magic-us/board265-news-announcements/board267-news/86429-bulk-purchases-made-easy/#post663442

From now on*, you'll find an easy way to handle your bulk purchases in the shop with these packages:

Fusion Stones in Purified Packages (up to 1000)
Arcane Transmutor Charges (up to 5000)
Passageway Runes (up to 50)

Simply select the desired amount with just a single click and you're all set for your missions in Taborea.

So from what I see, we can now buy/gift up to 1000 puris, up to 5000 charges & up to 50 passageway runes. Does that sound about right?

Are these 3 items the only items currently or are these examples?

I guess even if they're just these 3 for now, it's a good test sample.

all i see is being able to buy them still only one by one, don't care if those 5/10/20 puri packs stacks to 10 000. We want the purified box to be in IS all the time, stack to 999 for those, but then again this has been mentionned many many ttimes before and Gameforge goes out of their way not to give us what we want. But they know what we want, sure go with that

The major complaint, that I could see, was that Puri's were only buy able 1 at a time.

Purified Fusion Stones don't stack, for good reason. The way the Arcane Transmutor works is that you can't stack any item in there unless it transmutes EXACTLY into something else with no remainder.

Example: You put 5 Tier III runes in the Transmutor and you get 1 Tier IV Rune. But if you put 6 Tier IV runes in the transmutor, you don't get 1 Tier V and 1 Tier IV as a remainder, do you?

So, for Purified Fusion Stones to stack you'd still have to break the stack apart to use them in the Arcane Transmutor. Bad system (I'd certainly not want to do that every single time).

So, this solves the issue of "Purified Fusion Stones can only be bought 1 at a time QQ". Well, now, you can buy them in increments of 5/10/20 up to 50 times each, and they stack over 50, for the same price as buying just a single purified fusion stone.

This is a solution that is 1) Fast. It doesn't require Runewaker to introduce a patch to the game. As it stands now the Gift boxes are only stackable to 10 or 20 (depending on which one you get), requiring a patch to implement, then more item shop testing to do. 2) Accomplishes the main problem at hand; Purified Fusion Stones can now be bought in compact form, more than 1 at a time. and 3) Has the least chance of messing anything else up.

I for one love the new system. I can now stack 1000 Purified fusion stones in a SINGLE ITEM SLOT!

If PFS's were to stack, they'd probably only stack to 99. Meaning I would need to take up 11 item slots to store 1000, and to use one, I'd have to Shift Right click to break the stack down to 1 each every single time. Again, no thanks.

This is the best solution for Purified Fusion Stones that doesn't cause the most headaches, both from the backend and the front.

Yea that would be a terrible system, it would suck if that was the case for the zodiac pets and cenedril pets.

Oh

Wait
A real sysadmin knows how to change the time.
If you make the same mistake while trying to make up for the previous one, you are doing something wrong.

As much as I'd love to say I offer consulting services, the scope of things broken is too large.

Can't really see how the way Arcane Transmutor works is related to stacking: You can stack runes and use stacks of runes in Transmutor. You can stack zodiac elements, but you can't use stacks of elements in Transmutor.

I buy PFSs mostly with tokens and wouldn't mind having them stacked - I'm saving them for now to stat my PvP gear once I get to that gear lvl later. I won't mind splitting PFSs if that saves backpack/bank space.

You SERIOUS? I wish Puris stacked... I mean Random Attribute Extraction stones already work that way. Why do puris not stack? To take up bag space. Simple. Like every single item shop item stacks except the one used the most... (probably). Please tell me that's not intended to take up bag space.

There's been several times I can't buy more puris because I have nowhere to put em anymore. If anything GF is making less money cuz I'd have full bags anyways with all the stuff I carry.
