Heh, remember that it would mean that perception would be pointless past 50. Heck, right now its pointless past 100 until the rest of the industries catch up.

Hmm. I am in two minds about the perception thing.

Balancing suggestions:

- Increase the FEP of carrot cake, and/or give us another per FEP food that is not so insanely laborious.

- Make it per x 3 or x 4 instead of x 2.

Well, it will still be more useful than it was yesterday.

But why is it so important to add use to stats that the economy takes a back seat?
If it were such an issue, psy and dex wouldn't exist and older stats would be given uses.

jorb wrote: Major Change, Perception and quality: You can now only determine the quality of items up to the level of your perception times 2. Example: James has 14 perception, the Bear Cape has Q 35, the Carrot Cake has Q 23. The Carrot Cake will display as being Q23, but the Bear Cape will only show up as being "28+" (if it shows up as 16 million, update your client).
So my level 500 carpenter has no idea what quality his new bed is. How can a crafter (in real life, since we go for realism to a degree here) make a quality item if he doesn't even know what a quality item is? Completely nonsensical.

This is untrue. It's not a 'dedicated' cape slot, it's the head slot as well. Apparently my guy can't figure out how to wear bandages under a hat.

And secretly farming got nerfed as well, instead of the farming + 50 formula determining max QL and low farming skill not reducing seeds, it's now without the +50 and it does reduce QL.

I'm not amused :<

jorb: It's called creative license. You know, that thing you seem to want to apply to logic, grammar and coherence? :)

Are you sure that's not the new perception feature? How much per do you have?

So we get 2 chests per bar?
Me likey.

Also, hooray for high quality bear cloaks.
You see a masterful engraving by Blaze. On it is Blaze, bears, boars, and foxes. Blaze is striking down the bears. The boars are screaming. The foxes are in a fetal position. The image relates to the return of Blaze in the late winter of 2009.

Tankard also requires 5 tin nuggets now.

Also technically perception hasn't been useless for a while now. Governs clue-hunting a little bit, and helps improve your chances of finding a plant. I think chantrelles are more common at higher values (not like you can tell, they're everywhere anyway.), cavebulbs as well, possibly.
