Oy, let me explain WHY its worth buying the dye at 100k
I made a dye run these last day. Collecting blue herbs wasn’t so bad, I knew where to get them and I was on early, so no competion for the plants. It took a day or so
Most of the stuff needed for the dye was transfered from my old swordman. Except the alchool. I traded my Kurk card for it. And I wanted that card…
Now the painful part, wich I call the dye run. It consist into a quest that involves no less that 3 hours of walking, searching and warping. I looked everywhere, clues, from the web, and the NPC was behind another, so I couldn’t really think he was there. After 2 hours of search, the quest finnally begins. I must walk from Alberta to Geffen in order to meet 2 guys, the last mix the Dextri and Alchool into some potion for the dye. It cost 3000 zennies. And I’m broke.
I walk back from Geffen to Marroc. And try to kill the most stuff. I need 3500 to make the Blue dye. It will take me another hour selling stuff.
When I finnaly have my dye, I walk back (Again, thus the title “The lost Mage” really applies :P) to Pronteras, toward the cloth Dyer.
He says he’s too busy for dying now…
you mean dying as in coloring your clothes ala UO?
i havent bought much yet, only a main gauche, jacket, guard, and flu mask from the morroc armory (3400z total). however, i find it alot easier to get stuff and actually make money, compared to say… EVERQUEST.
Heh. Dying your hair was fun in UO, and dying your clothes was tres easy. Buy a dye tub, get some dye (I think, it’s been a while) Choose color for the tub (or change it) and off you go!
with td’s luck against himself though it’d be at least a alarm or something, or hell if its possible, a phreeoni. Now wouldnt THAT suck, to be walkin around leveling, booken comes in and db’s a phreeoni right beside you then wings away?
