New bottles please!

Postby Rifmaster » Mon Jul 28, 2014 6:50 pm

What i suggest is that we get new containers for our potions each with their own debuff and buff.
For example a clay bottle, or a small bottle made of dried bark and fibre.
Maybe even a re-usable iron bottle!
Now i was thinking of something like the bark bottle giving only 1 use and they clay bottle making it 25% weaker and iron bottle would for example make it 15% weaker.
Now the buffs of these bottles would, ofcourse the fact that they are free and that you can make them yourself without buying glass.
However i still think glass bottles should pretty much stay the same as they are.
Im saying this on behalf of the people who dont have the money to buy bottles or glass panes. (like me :mrgreen: )

But why would you invest the effort into making these substandard bottles when you could hunt for savage charms, sell hides, or sell cotton cloth to come up with the silver for the real thing?

Because Theres a thousand things more important like getting a bell, purity food, buying an admirals, paying for the slotting, buying artifacts etc.
When i suggested this i didnt mean to add every single one.
Just 1 of them would be enough.
OR make glass bottles reusable by just making potions turn into "dirty glass bottles" after they have been used. Then just wash the bottle i guess.
I see no need to throw away a bottle that was expensive at the time just because you drank its contents.

This

Honestly, after the July 4th patch, if anyone has trouble being able to afford the glass/glass bottles, they have bigger problems to worry about. Silver is quite easy to get now, those arrowheads and feathers show up in stumps more often than stones lol.

To get the benefit you must eat the glass. If there are currently more important things for you to get then glass for potions then you probably don't need them right now or they just are not that important to you so don't worry about them.

Fair enough. I suppose we could add a bottle cleaning kit for 100s from the vendor stall that has a single use to convert a dirty bottle to a clean one. ¦]

Perhaps a cheaper cleaner that only works on the lower potions?
