A staff that has +15% magic damage and +15% magic accuracy? No way. Each staff has penalties on it associated with it's opposing element, there's no way they'd make a Prism Staff or Rainbow Staff unless it had something like -20 STR/DEX/VIT/INT/MND/CHR/AGI on it or like -50% MP.

The only real penalty for the staves is the -inventory. When you have all the staves and can macro them out as needed, you never suffer under any of the elemental penalties.

Simple:
Obis) Make a quest to forge all the obis in to one, of course you have to have all of them to do it.

Staffs) Make a quests to forge all of the staffs in to one, gain all of the benefits (maybe can do away with some of the stats), doing the quest with NQ staffs will egt you a rainbow staff, doing it with all HQ gives you a prisim.

Kinda like the NPC that turns stacks of nin tools into toolbags?

Bring them 8 staves and they bundle it into one? >_>

that actually sounds kinda appealing !

[SephYuyX]

I wish it would be that easy, but you know it wouldnt, and I guess I really wouldnt mind if it was a little bit of effort to it. Also the quest would give you a ra/ex staff so the forged staves couldnt be sold.

An all in one obi would mean penalties for thunder magic during earth weather. Also "PERFECT ITEMS!" isn't my idea of improving the game. Let inventory hit 80 and add other item storage alternatives before adding "Super Do-it-all" items like something right out of a bad 50s science fiction.

Let us store individual AF pieces, and HQs. Fucking please let me store my HQ AF1.

I've always wanted to see SE impliment a system kinda like WOW's socketing system to add our own little enhancements to our weapons/armor <_<

Gain all benefits, no penalities.
And this really only applies to two item sets (obis/staffs), cant really think of anything else that would need the super do it all treatment.

[BRP]

Pairing them off in 2s(Gravitation, Fusion, etc) is better than dumbing the entire set down to one damn item. That was they can at least keep their penalties.

[SephYuyX]

That was my original idea, I wrote that to them over a year ago. Idc if it's one or two, but it needs to be done.

I assume this comment applies to Obis only, since gorgets already affect level 2s

Fire Obi - Fire

Flame Gorget - Flame (and by association; Fusion)

Right?

[BRP]

Gorgets were never mentioned.

Either way, fusing items together is dancing around the problem without actually fixing it.

[Seraphus]

My bad, a misunderstanding. lol.

How horribly would it break the game if SE added something like people getting paid a salary by their guilds based on the level of their craft?

Or adding high level recipes that only the creator of the item has the authority to trade/sell (Gets hit with an EX Tag after it leaves the creator's hands)

Would probably do more harm than good, but just a thought.

How does it not fix the problem where 8 inventory slots become one?

[BRP]

Because you are still dealing with an inventory where 7 slots is a big deal afterward.

[Ahlah]

This isn't update speculation (yet), but something I'd like to see (that would also maybe help the inventory issue) is a NPC who can combine elemental armor/weapons (Staves, Obis and Gorgets, I'm looking at you) into ONE PIECE that doesn't need to be swapped out all the time, perhaps with a slight penalty. For example, if you were to combine all 8 NQ elemental staves, you would get:

Rainbow Staff:
+3 to all stats
Magic Accuracy +20
Magic Attack +20
Avatar perp -2

Grrr that's my orignal idea, already posted it under Interview discussion section a while ago.

Simple way to avoid abuse of the system - add a long tidious quest which allows player to turn 8 HQ staves into 1 lv75 ra/ex Prism staff.

[Seraphus]

I totally hope that they make it so when HNMs spawn, they cause a random duration of stun to anyone near it.

[Corrderio]

Sorry if it's been said before (Don't wanna go through 6 pages, just feel bleh ATM), however what if this new system they're adding is this "Create your own dungeon" thing they've mentioned a few times in the past?

Whenever someone says this, they will invariably suggest something which has already been suggested.
