Let's talk a little bit about the Clan Vault.
If you are out farming or fishing to get your skill up or getting wood or ore or what have you. Whatever you get while you are doing this if it something that you don't use or need please throw it in the clan vault.
What you may not use may be used by someone else. Now if you pick up weapons or basic armor then by all means keep or sell those. But if you are picking up the higher level weapons and you end up with a few spares on you then please throw whatever left overs you have in the clan vault.
This goes pretty much with everything. Steed grass etc. I have put at least 6 steed grass in the vault and I know Likwid has thrown in about that many as well. We now have mounts in the bank that we will give out to members who need them.
Reagents... Sulfur and Resin which you get from mining ore and wood if you don't need them put them in the Clan Vault because others do need them and I've been giving it out to the other members.
If you are killing mobs/npc's please please please bring a skinning knife with you and skin when it is safe for you to, and if you don't need the reagents put them in the Clan Vault and we will get them to the members who are using them to make stuff for the clan.
I have personally put in about 200-300 of all the different types of herbs and have given them off to Likwid along with others that other members have put in so that potions could be made. We now have a nice sum of moderate mana and health potions to give out when we go raiding or seiging.
Timber / Stone - If you get some downtime and no one is around in game farming timber and stone is a great way to level up your skills and it also levels up your attributes. Plus we are going to need lots of it when we take over our first city. We want to be able to rebuild quickly.
Ore - You need to farm enough ore for yourself to get some good suits of armor and or weapons. If you have any extra go ahead and throw them in the bank we will need it for Seige Hammers and Battle Spikes.
Gold - I know that's a tough one for people and personally all the older members know that I am a huge horder of gold and other items. However, when the guild needs something I am always there to give like there is no tomorrow.
Remember folks we are all in this together so lets do what we can to help each other out. AND don't be shy to look into the clan vault and see if there is something in there that may help you or you may want. THAT IS WHAT IT IS THERE FOR. So look around and if you see something you need let us know.
By the way we threw in like 8-10 War Bows and other misc weapons so if you need something again just speak up.
-
Yes, sir!
I know that once I'm in-game I'll be putting in everything of value that I get into the clan vault. We all gotta pitch in to get us well-geared and well-funded so we can compete with the "big boy" clans.
Also, I think it's great that you remind us that if we need something to ask for it. I know I (and probably plenty others) am usually too shy to ask for anything, thinking you'll all think I'm greedy, even if it's something fairly minor like a R20 bow and 50 arrows.
Especially since we start at a lower Strength than other races, I'll be gathering my ass off to raise attributes and supply the guild with wood/stone/ore.
-
The big problem is, Broin, that the lower ranks cant acutally SEE the Clan Vault. This means, we cant know if we even need anything of the clan vault, cant see whats in and cant see how the numbers are raising when we put something in. I know that seeing the content of the vault can be only made by giving the rights to remove too, so I sure understand that we dont have them.
But you got my point?
-
I gots 4 more steed grass fer ya boss!

You guys can't see what's in there? That's BS... Why would they have it like that?
-
They do though -_-
-
Tbone figured out the permissions a few weeks ago. I thought he was bumping everyone up to the level so you could all see it??
-
I think either rank Sergeant or rank Corporal can see inside the Clan Vault, but do not have the ability to remove items from the Clan Vault.
For those that do not have access, please tell us either here or while in-game, and someone will bump you up to the rank that you need to be.
-
It's Sergeant so so everyone knows

Nope.
Corporals CANT see the Content.
I'm not sure if there is a right for seeing and one for taking.
They are connected afaik.
-
Allright. Ana fixed it and pormoted every1 to Sergeant. Now we can see the Vault, but can't take anything out. Tested it.
Thanks - now its much better for all :D
-
Alright, I went in and fixed the problem before class this morning. Everyone should be of rank Sergeant and able to see but not take from the Vault.
-
can we make subb still a private when he gets in?
-
/cheer... promotions
-
kewl! but you know whats weird? like a week and a half ago i was able to see the contents of the bank... but i was still corporal... whats up with that? lol

MARCH 21 TASOS POST
• Clan Vault permissions have been updated
-
I'm going to go in and clean the clan vault up a bit.
Here is what I am thinking
Weapons need to go into RED BAGS
1 bag for bows / 1 bag for 1 handers / 1 bag for 2 handers / 1 bag for others pole arms etc
Armor goes into BLUE BAGS
1 bag for shields / 1 bag for scale, plate, etc. / 1 bag for leather / 1 bag for cloth
Gathering Materials go in GREEN BAGS
1 bag for spell regents / 1 bag for stone, ore, and wood / 1 bag for gems / 1 bag for herbs / 1 bag for enchanting items (though some of those double as regents. / 1 bag for food to be preparted /
Finished gathered materials go in BROWN BAGS
1 bag for worked wood and ore and stone / 1 bag for prepared food / 1 bag for potions / 1 bag for potions
You get the idea... What do you think. I'm thinking it'd be easier to find things that way. RED = ATTACK / BLUE = DEFENSE / GREEN = GATHERED / BROWN = DONE
-
good idea broin, i also would sell all that rank zero weapon crap. or give every new player we gat like 20 of them. else it will rot there for all eternity.
-
Yes, good idea. But you can expand it a little more. There are both BAGS and SACKS, and all are available in all colors.
I have 2 brown bags that I can swap out with sacks for the guild bank.
With 8 different containers, it should be pretty simple to keep it that way after its sorted.

That sounds good... We'll use the bags for the higher level stuff rank 40 and up and the sacks for the lower level rank 20-30 stuff.
I did start cleaning out the rank 0 and rank 10 items and selling them and putting the gold into the clan vault. If anyone wants something from the clan vault you need to let me know either here on the forums or in game.
-
I know that I've been using some of the rank 10 one-handed swords that are in there. I always just go out with those and don't feel bad if I die.
However, if we're going to be killing higher end mobs and will have a good deal of higher ended weapons, then by all means sell them.
-
Let me know if you need any bags or sacks. I'd be more than glad to make some. Just let me know which you need and i'll dump em into the clan bank.
-
Arch can I get a variety of colored bags or sacks? maybe 6 - 8 of them? I can give you mats or mustache rides.
-
I give rides, not take.
As for the bags, sure. I'll let you know what i need for the colors other than that i can just buy the cloth / leather.
On an off topic note, i need help on Autoit Scripting >_<!!
-
I'm downloading the client now... and I'm hoping to be in game tonight - I'd appreciate anything to get me going! :]
-
Yeah Subb!
-
Ok guys, still very much a noob here -
Can you tell me how to access the clan vault? Obviously I don't have access to remove items - but how do I see the contents and/or add items to the vault?
also - do we have a stockpile of lower level weapons? My sword and archery are in the low 20's ... but I'm still using R0 weapons... do we have extra R10/20weapons in the vault that us newer members can use?
Where are the best places to go to buy these things? Are there NPC vendors in certain cities that will sell these types of items - or are players the best source? I've got basically nothing that I haven't been able to loot off dead Goblins... so looking to add a bunch of stuff to my bank (so I can then mete it out to the gankers a set at a time...)
also will need a mount soon (or mounts) - where's my best bet for buying one of these?
what about arrows?
thanks for the info -

You access it by pressing 'G' then selecting the clan account. We have all sorts of stuff in there Marik - for Noobs and Vets alike.

Sheath your weapon, and point your cursor at the bank. Click "G" and click "Access Clan Vault" or some such thing. You will then be able to put items in and see items in the Clan Vault. If you need anything in it, please ask an Officer. We're on the Honor system, so you can take out whatever you want, as long as you contribute whatever you've taken out.
also - do we have a stockpile of lower level weapons? My sword and archery are in the low 20's ... but I'm still using R0 weapons... do we have extra R10/20weapons in the vault that us newer members can use?
We should. There should be a red bag in there somewhere with a bunch of Twisted Swords that are rank 10. Hopefully we didn't dispose of them all; if we did, I have about 5 Twisted Swords in my personal bank that I can give you with some shields that are about your level. As for getting them, it's best to have one of us craft them or get them off higher level mobs.
also will need a mount soon (or mounts) - where's my best bet for buying one of these?
Talk to an officer next time you're ingame... we'll get you one.
-
Hey Marik :)
Poke around in the clan vault and see what it is you would like and just ask an officer to pull something for you. Generally if you NEED it you can get it but as always try and feed the bank back with resources to help crafters.
Alternatively Jarimus is the lead armorsmith and newly promoted major. He's a good resource to talk to for armor. Phienyx (sp?) is working on weapon crafting and can make lots of good stuff.
Sometimes it's easier just to trade crafters mats for items than waiting for someone to be online to pull from the clan vault.
OR: Get a gray orks attack squad together. They drop NICE lewts.
-
Thanks for the replies...
I'm more than happy to contribute to the vault...
any word on an implementation of a mail system? or auction house? or player owned stores?
-
I'd like to see some sort of item and message delivery system for sure. I don't want an auction house but would like to see a bazaar of some sort with hireable NPC merchants.
-
Shadowbane had a great system for this (their city building process was even better than this IMO) - you could create guild shops (or player owned shops) and stock them with banked items and specify a price...
could even differentiate prices for guildies and non-guildies ... or just let guildies take what they wanted for free...
biggest problems with the system now is travel and being limited to only acquiring items from those currently online...
from reading the DFO forums - evidently there has been developer talk involving an offline trading system (to come with the offline clan management system)...
now THAT woud be awesome... being able to trade while OUT of the game (to maximize your time to actually play when IN the game) - although it could drasticly impact my productivity at work ;-)
