Accessory crafters have always had the shit end of the stick in soma, very little to craft and make use of there skill.

Add the bravery necklace +3 to be craftable to complete the bravery collection of accessories.

Add the greater bravery rings, earring, necklace to be craftable +4.

This leaves the ultimate bravery collection for collecting the boss souls for the +6 accessories.

Now that we have the valour armour, make Titus armour craftable and let the armour crafters make use of there skill.

Now that we have the valour weapons, make nega tier craftable and let the weapon crafters make use of there skill.

And lastly, please for the love of god increase the poultry level of mats in abias be increased if not unlimited.

+1 and +999999999 to mats

5 chars fighting over 10k linen at this stage is stupid

Mats have needed increasing for so long. Ridiculous that it's not been upped.

Every single time I've seen it mentioned anywhere, someone on a store char pops up and says something incoherent about bots - as if a) people using bots to craft hasn't been an issue from day 1 and b) the overall bot situation could get any worse. Would love to hear any other reason for keeping them so low, one that doesn't fall apart with even basic scrutiny.

Agree with the rest of it, mainly. Would be nice to see a tier of craftable weaps/armour between nega and valour, would have a bit more value to crafters and players alike and bridge the rather big jump. The recipe could even incorporate some semi-rare items that currently don't have much value, making more than a tiny few items worth picking up.

Likely too much work though and something about not playing pvp making it a bad idea, so +1 to craftable nega tier stuff.

This seems to be the major problem or lack of increasing the mats in abias due to the botters ruining it for every legitimate crafter out there. No matter how much mats are in abias npc shops there will always be botters, but increasing the mat amounts and frequency of restock and keeping shops open 24/7 will help the legitimate players to compete with the cheats.

Time versus reward, increase the mats/ and restock frequency remove all the bloody hurdles that crafters have to jump through to gaining crafting skill.

For the love of god it’s 2023, bring the bloody fun back into soma and stop putting brick walls and obstacles in place to slow players down and potentially put players off from playing this great game soma.

Maybe make mat restock NPC's fill their inventory up randomly with 1 material, and have the main stock randomised somewhere between the low ammounts

So on short

Randomise where the materials will be in the NPC inventory

Not sure if you’ve ever run mats, but there are basic leather, tiger leather, wood and linen at 1 abias shop.

Then you have copper and orc metal at another shop.

Then you have liver and horn at another shop.

Then you have the 2 types of meat at another shop.

The restocks of these mats where not fit for purpose back on esoma days, let alone in 2023 on this server.

Out of all the crafts you can do on hsoma cooking has unlimited stock of mats, the rest your fighting to get with the many botters that are on 24/7 and the gm’s are doing feck all about it, trurning the other way and pretending it’s not happening.

Well bollocks, do you jobs gm’s and observe the amount of botters at mat restocks/crafting stations and rid soma of these cheating bastards once and for all.

Limiting it on esoma sort of made sense, it slowed people down and made them more inclined to pay for another month. I do rather miss the days of bribing half my guild to get linen at t1 though!

On here it never made sense. It's just another one of those dumb things that gets ignored for years for no reason at all.

The funniest thing is if the right person on discord mentioned it, it would change instantly.

I wish someone would mention it on discord then the gm’s might actually take some notice finally.
