Gold sink needed in rpg.

[leeloo]

Inventory full of junk worth billions but what happens If I sell some? Game goes nuts and give me minus gold.

[Insider]

There is warning about it in RPG game help:

GOLD: Is needed to buy gear and to pay some NPCs. The adventurers cannot carry more than 2.147 billion gold at a time. Any amount over this is dropped (lost)

[leeloo]

Hence the need for a gold sink, all quests done but i keep farming exp and it sux to see all drops that i cant pick up or sell.

not a bad suggestion. i noted it down. if it is easy to add, we add it.

you've finished the houses quest and still have extra gold? ... guess I'd better get busy with more

[leeloo]

Hehe, finished all 2 weeks ago

Sent 500.000.000 gold to blue devil twice, crafted the boots 5 times and now my pockets are full again.

Gold sink could be made easy i think in rpg, the mechanics are already in game via the altars were you pay gold to spawn items or monsters. Just place one more with a chance to win uber stuff, monsters or exp. Make it eat away some of the gold Mountain.

I dunno

[blitzcraig]

nice - if you've thought of specific examples I'd be happy to hear them

[leeloo]

Hm, maybe a poll so the hole rpg community can have a say on this cuz it might disrupt game balance.

It must be something that cant be abused, like The protection spell on The mage, thats for sure.
