One more thing.. You realize this will be EXTREMLY complicated, for example, on a glavie, the phy s %s are more important than the mag, while on the spear its the oposite...

Beside, for this to work nicely a lot of people must use it...

Anyways, very nice idea on the program :wink: Too bad I can't program :( I would like to know how to do those things

yes steelpain BUT you said lvl 85 sword, that says nothing about it. the price you listed would tell me its npc, first tier(which its not), 0% and no blues. Just one plus can affect a price drasticly ie, if the phy attack was 100% it would be worth like 100m+. there is no way you could successfully pull off a program, when prices change from day to day. Not trying to shoot down your idea, but there are thousands of items in sro all change and are worth differently. a 85+9 warlock rod has a different price then a 85+9 perfect blued rod, which is different price then if the magic attack is very high on the first rod. you cant possably put into account all the factors that go into pricing an item. And besides, what are you gonna do in game, "oh hey man this program I downloaded said that your ripping me off I will only pay xxx amount." ? yea the seller is gonna laugh at you, call you noob and go to the next person.


Miss-pricing mistakes on both the sellers and buyers side usually happens pre lvl 50 after that if you dont know the market by then, then you deserve to get whatever you get, eventually you will learn. lol

Some people never grow out of noobage. I guess its about how you play and why you play sro that dictates what aspect of it you excel in.

But seriously items are hard to judge, for as in real life "someones trash is another persons treasure". Same in sro, its reminds me of pre-euro where it was common practice to farm at the bandit den. People would spend 200m+ for a Sun+7 lvl 16 bow, or 200m+ for sets of SoX D2/D3 gear. That meant something to some people, sure its obsolete now but to a collector or someone who actually did farm 200k sp at the den over a 5 month period is willing to pay more for stuff like that. How can you put price factor into a program?

*ps there is an edit button, it prevents double posting like you just did*

Its like trying to price this:

hey Steelpain.... Here is the excel sheet i prepared :)

http://www.megafileupload.com/en/file/74187/StallPrice-xls.html
(please scan the file for viruses - I think my pc is clean but who knows :) )

I still think you should arrange prices according to NPC's selling prices. So it won't differ server to server.

BTW you can ask me anything about the excel sheet i made, as it may look complicated at first :D
