I personally like 'em bound - means that folk that want the potions in the eggs have to actually go and get them for themselves rather than be lazy and get 'em from the AH ... 

 

The drops from the 2 new dragons have already crashed to 1 fsp each - heck, they only STARTED at 3 I think so the eggs have no commercial value anyway.


Homer : Marge, don't discourage the boy. Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals .. except the weasel.

 

Eddie Izzard : The National Rifle Association say that guns don't kill people, people do. But I think the gun helps, you know ? I think it helps. I think just standing there going "BANG" - that's not going to kill too many people, is it ?

 

I don't mean to sound pessimistic, but it seems that everything I eat lately turns to poo ...

No reason to be bound then, right?

 

Cheers.

I think they should be unbound.

I would hunt or buy eggs for shatter armor. Mesmerize is also not bad.

 

However, I am having trouble hunting them, since I am in mids 500s ...

 

And buying them, well.... no can do, since they are bound.

 

I bet there will be people discarding those drops to save BP space.

 

If the level gap between myself and the creatures droping them is business, the binding decision is something I simply cannot understand.

 

PS: @ Hades: Thank you for the complete report on the eggs buffs ;)

Hmm .. I like releasing some more LEs in terms of frags / filling up guild quotas .. but right after the 2x event? And we had Yule area going on and new titans. I think it would have been best to wait till after Christmas for this event. Just my two dots on the subject.

i have to say thats one of the most selfish things i have ever seen you write..being bound is fine if anyone could get them i can get them all so can you so you can hunt what you need but what about the other 99% of the game

 

and new gear always drops to 1 fsp for non perfect drops more or less within a hour as soon as someone puts the price at 1 its fixed as no one buys junk drops ...

 

on a side note potions are at least usable unlike a back pack of le items

SELFISH ? 

 

I could flip your argument around and say that by them being bound, players can't profit from them - and those with the biggest backpacks generally profit the most.

 

Either way, " I " didn't make them bound - the cows did. Will they change that ? - who knows.

These new eggs were the perfect opportunity to introduce a lot of these "new buffs" that have been listed in the AH 'grants buff' section. Why didn't HCS take advantage of this, instead of making these near to useless eggs? Only decent eggs I find are the Vision 250 and Shatter Armor 400. And the problems with these are the level required to use them and the fact that they're bound. Hugely disappointing...

The buffs are all themed to the Dragons. I'll consider unbinding them, sure.

When will the new buffs be introduced? The last batch of skill-based buffs was 1600 and we're now 800 levels above this...

Don't think there's a problem if you make them unbound

 

people who is going to spend money to buy them isn't lazy because they had effort to make that money ;)

 

plus that would encourage players to hunt these dragons
