Re: NEXT UPDATE : New storage solution
The old storage caused severe lag for everyone on the server. It simply had to be disabled.

Re: NEXT UPDATE : New storage solution
Tried the BG Storage system with non-QC PC. Every item I tried to deposit returned an error:
"Failed to store item, please try again."
Doesn't appear the new storage is usable yet.

Re: NEXT UPDATE : New storage solution
More detail...
I was originally in SCCE when I attempted to use storage and got the message. Valefort tried storage in Farmlands East and had no issues. I went to Farmlands East and got the same error message "Failed to store item, please try again".
I then disguised my PC as another of my PC's names and I was able to deposit and retrieve in that PC's storage. I was also able to disguise my PC as a short name and was able to deposit as well.
PC Name: Finneaus Du'Veil (cannot use new storage system)
PC Disguise 1: Tarent Nefzen (was able to deposit and retrieve items)
PC Disguise 2: Finn (was able to deposit and retrieve items)
EDIT: Further testing reveals the new storage system does not like apostrophe in your name. So if your PC has one you will only be able to use the system if disguised without apostrophe. Initial testing shows the system works fine if I disguise Finneaus Du'Veil as Finn, even though I don't have an actual PC with that name. ( can deposit and retrieve at least...not sure if item will persist through reset when not tied to a real PC name.

Re: NEXT UPDATE : New storage solution
Heh, yeah I can see that would be a problem. I will look into it. Should be no issue with using a disguised name even if that name doesn't belong to any of your characters.

Re: NEXT UPDATE : New storage solution
How long until it moves out of beta and items can be guaranteed?dedude wrote:The new storage will be open to the public. It does not include guild storage yet, only personal storage. Note that the system is in a BETA state for the time being, so don't start storing your epic items until you/we feel confident that no serious bugs managed to sneak past our internal tests.
It should look very familiar to those that have used the old kemo storage. The kemo storage is still available for item retrieval only.
I created a wiki page for the system.

Re: NEXT UPDATE : Pack Horses
Suggestion:
Techsmith Gondsman, Druid & Ranger animal companion, Thaumaturge Planar Cohort, Pale Master Undead summons, Blackguard Undead/Fiendish servant & Baneguard cohort given the option of being a pack mule for their owner?
Basically any permanent or hour/level summon/companion/cohort would be nice to substitute as a packmule

Re: NEXT UPDATE : Pack Horses
That is the strong one. There was a small bug with the pricing, but you got the right horse.

Re: NEXT UPDATE : Expose weakness replacement
Will it work bare-handed? I remember mentions that you need to wear a glove for it to work. Is that still true?
