It would be sweet if they gave a worthwhile % bonus to trades goods for the last warehouse but that would be beneficial and we'd hate to see that. 2 ~ Arcane Rift ~:: 99 Smithing - 2007-03-04 :: :: :: 99 Crafting - 2007-06-18 :: 99 Fletching - 2007-08-27 :::: :: 99 Strength - 2009-05-28 :: :: :: :::: :: :: 99 Prayer - 2011-11-27 :: :: 99 Slayer - 2012-01-15 :::: :: 99 Summoning - 2012-12-07 :: 99 Firemaking - 2012-12-09 :: 99 Woodcutting - 2013-01-17 :: 99 Mining - 2013-01-31 :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urza285 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Honestly once things settle as far as progression in ports it wont be the warehouse costs that you'll be complaining about. I can already tell that its going to be finding crew/captain replacements and/or switching the shipwright or lodgings for those aficionados.

Celery n Corn Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 ok here's my current crew I have the morale hull upgrade for jade Currently I have 2200 jade and 4k cherrywood. I'm thinking before any other upgrades I should get my fourth ship no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeRambo Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Yes. Fourth ship helps tremendously. "Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch, for this night and all the nights to come."

Quyneax Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Yes, get your 4th ship, if you have no problem hitting the speed cap. If you do, get the rudder first.

Not that that is very useful if Jagex doesn't add a use for extra port resources. After getting all of the upgrades, etc, what good will 25k+ extra stainless steel do us?Jagex could change the system so that players can repair the tradeable armor using port resources. That would give a big extension to the game life of PoP. I'm not sure what the balance of resources should be, but what would players think if for body repair it took 4000 chimes, 3000 cherrywood, 2000 jade, 1000 steel and 8 Plate to repair the melee chest armor with similar proportion of resources for head and legs? For untradeable, players can spend either half that or use gp like now. Something along those lines would make upgrading the warehouse and collecting resources a big factor in continuing PoP. First, ten repairs would be the same trade good cost as making a new piece of armor. However, the resources makes 10 repairs cost much more overall than buying new sets. Tradeable armor then gets used much more in high risk boss and PvP situation. Since on death it becomes degraded, it becomes a valuable drop in PvP combat.

NastyJenny Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 There is no point sending a ship with 14000/12000 in a stat.

Usually if I am in that situation I will send an unrelated low-level crew member (eg combat instead of morale). Unless all your crew are maxed out, you should never leave empty spaces on ships.
