Dialogues
Obtaining Dragon Oil:
The dragon oil is available from Haizen:
Player> dragon_oil
Haizen> Yes, I have dragon oil, but it's very difficult to extract. However, I am in need of supplies, such as #carrot_pie.
Player> carrot_pie
Haizen> I love carrot pies. My mother would make the most delicious ones when I was a young apprentence. There is a bakery near by that makes tastely pies. If you would do my a favor and bring me 5 carrot pies from there, I will give you a bottle of dragon's oil. Just mention that you want carrot pie to the baker.
Obtaining Carrot Pies:
At the bakery, no carrot pie is listed for sale, but can be asked about:
Player> carrot_pie
Arlindo> Ah! You have heard of our carrot pies, from Haizen I bet. They are a magician's favorite because of their magic restoration properties. Because not many people buy them we don't list them for sale.
Player> make 5 carrot_pie
Arlindo> To make 5 carrot pies you will need 40 carrots and 10 flour.
Discussion and Comments
I love the idea, but as you point it is only a client side thing. Any clever guy will mod client to get the advantage. But real good idea. This is why I'd like to keep the quest relatively simple/easy, so doing the quest is easier than moding their client (and keeping it mod'ed when offcial changes are made). My only real concern is how high a player needs to be to take on a beholder.. maybe an infant beholder, if others can't be killed easily by around level 10. --MiguelAngelBlanchLardin 01:26, 21 February 2007 (PST)
