    Three suggestions for SE

    First, the Runic Portals should have a confirmation when you pick one, and there should be some message if you don't have Sanction when using one. Not a huge deal, but people seem to pick the wrong ones and forget Sanction a lot for some reason.

    Second, allow drops from BCNMs to be sent to the Delivery Box of the orb holder. Maybe you trade your orb and a gyshal green and a chocobo delivers them to town for you. It would allow people to receive Rare drops that they already are holding, and make doing BCNMs with people you don't know very well less risky.

    edit: Third, allow the Warp Taru in Whitegate to accept Mythril or Gold coins for a 'multi-pass' Manaclipper style.

    Thoughts?

    Confirmation? Maybe. Sanction thing is way too much, it's laggy enough as is without wanting to spam through a damn confirmation screen and then it'll be either default to no and you spam through it and have to do it all over again, or it's default to yes and you spam through it and end up going to the wrong portal anyway. Both are completly unnecessary imo.

    Second, allow drops from BCNMs to be sent to the Delivery Box of the orb holder. Maybe you trade your orb and a gyshal green and a chocobo delivers them to town for you.

    Why not just send the rare drops to your delivery box before you do the BCNM? Would be nice, but >_> this all seems like fluff idk

    Now, something like this I can get behind (*'-')
    Kinda upset we won't ever get Runic Portal multipasses ;;

    Re: Three suggestions for SE

    The reason they gave for not allowing portal multi-passes was the most retarded shit ever. They said they dont want to give multipasses because they want the thing to be in-accessible, but my non-programmer slow arse can work out a way to do that in 10 seconds flat, I don't know why they couldn't.

    Instead of stopping you from purchasing passes when the AC is gone, just disable the fucking portal lol. Problem solved, give us our damn multipass -_-

    That would annoy the ever loving piss out of me. I can hardly stand all the other npc options you encounter throughout laggy whitegate as is, I want less, not more. If anything the silver coin warp npc could use a "cancel" option.

    Edit: One of the best things SE ever did was replace the huge mountain of text from the outpost NPC every single time you speak to them.

    Lastly, is the SE suggestion forum/thread going back up anytime soon to hold all of these damned "suggestions".

    For the BCNM just make sure all the other members agree to it in PT on how the treasure will be distributed, that way if someone jacks something, then you can GM them and get the item back.

    Just give immortals at the SP's the ability to give you sanction, kinda like OP guards and the random fucks that just stand around at zonelines.

    Cancel option at silver coin taru please

    Completely randomize homepoint in whitegate(kinda like when you start besieged and get warped all over the map).

    Cancel option at warp taru in Whitegate PLLLLEEEEEEASSEE (already stated earlier, but with more emphasis of plesae).

    Better Sanction Regen would be nice, 5hp-tick would be totally worthwhile to get (over 1hp-tick). More sanction options, perhaps?

    Not having to go through 2-3 confirmations when buying a runic portal pass would save a lot of time too.

    Ya, I hate it when the NPCs blabber so much.

    "Hi welcome... "
    Click
    "You can use the ..."
    Click
    "I see you have the..."
    Click
    "Would you like to..."
    Up, Click
    "Here you go..."
    Click Click

    ><

    Just cut the chatter, shortstuff, and give me my pass!

    "Hi, your Imperial Standing is 33000. It costs 200 to buy a pass, would you like one?"
    (Default arrow on YES, like the default arrow on leasing rent-a-rooms)
    Click Click

    Also, please put doorstops on the doors to the Assault Office and Runic Portals... you'd think that those doors, having been opened and closed so many times, would have fallen off their hinges or something......
