I see a lot more shop price changes. Tenboro seems to be adjusting all prices so that buying and selling is balanced, i.e. 100 or less of each item.

mana potions up - now half of what they were initially
flame/frost/lightning infusions up
scrolls of shielding/swiftness up; warding down; god up a couple of times

Based on what's in the shop, mana, god scrolls, and gaia could possibly go up more. Maybe drinks, artifacts and crystals too since people are still buying them. health pots could go down even more since people still chunk them despite being almost worthless credit-wise (guilty.)

Tenboro have talked about the implementation of auto-pricing system in bazaar. I'm not sure he's performing the manual price change or using that system.
At least i won't be throwing so much health/spirit potions into bazaar. It starts to worth more to give them to lower-level guys than selling it.

I don't think anyone really uses spirit potions, not even us low levels

At least i can bet that there will be some change later (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
It's really worthless to drop them into bazaar.

seems Tenboro's still aha updating the update

It's easier to add minor updates live right after a major one, as that means I don't have to patch it into an older codebase. It usually lasts for a few days, until I start working on some major feature which requires versioning. After that, I normally only add things out-of-band when it's time critical for some reason or another - like, for example, the easter egg hunt.

I'm not sure about that... with the increase of effectiveness of the spirit shield spell, spirit pots might come in handy (and i always take one or two in to my fsm battles if i'm not using gum+vase, just in case FSM gets very lucky with his Puff of Logic)

That's fine and dandy, but adding a change log to the patch notes when you make minor changes would help us keep track of all the post-patch tweaks that you make instead of having us reread the patch notes every few hours looking for something that we might have missed.

I second this.
I usually end up missing out on something.

How about a sticky thread in the HV release notes subforum. Simply titled "List of minor tweaks" or something to that extend.
And post all the little changes there? Just leaving everything up on the first post and locking the thread.

well it's still useless to low levels then because we don't have the spirit shield spell yet
if I do use my spirit attack it's a last ditch attempt to survive because I don't have any health/mana potions left and I just have to kill this 1 guy to finish the arena/finish the round of grindfest etc

so keeping spirit potions around to use after my last ditch attempt would be useless + I don't want to lose all that precious overcharge that's giving me a damage bonus to my attacks, in fact if I use spirit attack and there's still a fair number of enemy's it could be counter productive because I then have to build up my overcharge again to get the damage bonus back. the one redeeming feature of the spirit attack system is it can never miss, otherwise I would probably never use it and back when I was a mage till about lvl 25 it was impossible to use my spirit attack because I never gained overcharge

Yes.. well... 20k for an artifact is too rich for my blood

The price is simply too high. I can probably buy 5 haths with that price. Why would i buy that when what only worths is something more than 5 haths or 100 fortitude crystals?
(Okay not counting the chance that you gain ability point or status)

Well... someone's buying them - All gone

HentaiVerse. Now with live inflation. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I post about it in the update thread, and update the patch notes. What else do you expect?

Depends whether artifacts are included in the consumer price index or not. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I don't see anything regarding changes to artifacts in the update thread nor in any of your posts.
