Drop Trading

Post by rck shx pike »

I was thinking...
Can you drop trade between two characters on two different accounts? Say you only have one computer and two accounts. No.1 account has four characters and no.2 account has the character you want to trade to.
Can you drop an item or money on no.1 account and then log off and quickly log on to no.2 account, select the character and then pick up to item or money? Or will you be too slow to pick the item or money up?

Items take a while to disappear but someone might get it... Why not just ask a friend to pass the item Oo?

You can but it's extremely risky especially with the reliability of the SRO servers and the fact that the items don't stay on the ground long.

Well, I've got no real life friends that play silkroad online, and I haven't gotten to the high trust level with my friends so far, or none of my friends are on. :D
But otherwise, does it work?

Wasn't there some guy on the forums like a 1 - 2 years back who explored Janagan tomb and found in a secluded corner multiple SoX boxes ?

Anyways, best thing to do is to make a guild with storage and trasnfer that way.

No way, I doubt someone found SoX boxes in a spot.


BTW, I LOL so hard at the nightbloom signature. I heard the mp3 and "she" sounds like a little boy going through puberty who got dropped and suddenly stopped going through it LOL

My friend would do this in incriments* of 1m. He never lost gold, but I always told him it was dangerous. Now he just has me transfer it for him.

1. Make a guild
2. Put both chars in the guild
3. Level up the guild
4. Use guild storage

Yes you can do drop trades. Find a time when the servers aren't full. Move both characters to the same isolated area. Drop item, restart, log in with other char, pick up, and done.

On Sparta there are a few guys that have noob trader accounts that dump goods outside then they log on with thier theif to take the goods... just so they look like they are a bad azz thief with the weekly contribution. Last guy caught doing this was from PMI guild. But he also dc's his trades whenever he see's a thief, uses outside rezzers, and as a last resort uses his thief to carry goods to make a trade successfull... one of the bigges losers on the server. When thiefs ratthief or homicide are on, he get's owned and loses it anyway

just try to make a lvl 2 guild and get a friend to help you recruit another character, and you can use that to pass items with no to help from there on out, and you can do this with out 100% trust in the other person

i think this works best.

but old school wisdom says that while you are allowing your "friend" to log into the storage character, you should already be logged into the account at the sro website. once you got that other character into the guild, change password.

this still is not all that safe since your username is already revealed, but it beats dropping and logging into another account.

perhaps you could try doing it on your own at work, school, internet cafe or get/borrow a "trusted" 2nd PC.
