Feedback + easy item exploit
« on: July 28, 2005, 01:12:15 am »
Hello, i've just tried the Chaos mod, and i have to say its one of the best mods out there. =D

However, i noticed a mayor flaw/bug/exploit that can be easily used with one of the original receipe formulas.
It can pretty much generate masive amounts of gold in a matter of minutes. (gave me about 200k in ten minutes before even doing the first quest)
Not sure if this has been reported and is already being fixed. As i can only read spanish/english, 50% of the forum is unreadable to me =/

I'd rather not give details about how to do it, as it may not be a largely know exploit yet.
If anyone who can fix the problem wants details, send a personal message.

Edit: Also, i noticed that the zombie boss in den drops 5 teddy bears, of which 3 can be transformed with the 3 starting scrolls to give magic find and +1 skills each.
Are you supposed to have 3 upgraded teddy bears in your inventory or are the scrolls used for something else beside the teddy?

Since Gold is really easy to get in Chaos Empire the first bug does not matter. You can sell for example town portal / identify foliants to get 7,5 mio gold (only sell to vendors where u can gamble). Various body parts give even more gold.

The teddy bug exits only in version 7.55 I think. So maybe you should upgrade to 7.59. You are not supposed to have more than 1 teddy

Btw. since this is your first post - maybe you should make an inhabitant post. You only need it if you want to play on the realm, but it is also recommended to have one even if you only play in singleplayer

Not sure what u mean by sell/resell, might be the same thing I've been doing...

Anyway, here goes. I just used the formula to transmute staffs.
1 white superior item -> 1 item + 1 healpotion

Just buy cheap sorceress staffs (or any other weapon with +skills potential on white mode) from merchant, usually for less than 1000, and use the formula to transmute.
Most of the time, the new white item will have +skills, making it much more expensive than the original. You can even get + skills from higher levels (18, 24, 30) making it extremely expensive. Just transmute untill you get expensive enough items, sell and repeat.

Infinite gold potential, but as gold is easy to come by it doesnt matter much.

actually you don't even have to transmute them (although that  may be possible at low levels too) but you just have to buy them and re-sell you will nearly always get more money than you spent :)

Since when is it like u describe olfmo? I thought u'll only get 1/3 of the buying price (for every item).  :blink:
Or do u mean that for gambling?

I'm a lilltle bit confused...
It's just one of those days
Where you don't wanna wake up
Everything is f****d, everybody sucks.
You don't really know why
But you wanna justify rippin' someone's head off
No human contact
And if you interact your life is on contract
Your best bet is to stay away mo****f****r!

getting more money when reselling items (also when gambling) does work only if u have enough items with -xx to vendor prices

@ Olfmo
Wasn't so clear to me :)

@ countdracula
Try it on necro wands... Start buying somewhere around 3k and selling it for up to 250k+ without any -% to vendor prices. Also works with light armors.
