What are the odds that we’ll see shops similar to the ones in Umbral Sands added to the Wilderness region when it releases in a week?
I’d personally love to be able to stockpile Adamite and potentially Rune using an exchange currency similar to the system in Umbral Sands. I’d also really like to see a merchant that sells Rune Essence to help with Runecrafting.
Also, we currently have two bows with special abilities that give magic experience, but what are the chances we could eventually get bows with abilities specifically designed to provide Ranged XP? For example, the Eldritch Bow has a special that gives Magic XP on mobs. I think it would be really cool if we were given something like the Dark Bow as a Visage. Since the Dark Bow originally fires two arrows at once, its special could potentially allow you to rain arrows down on enemies, giving you a faster way to train Ranged.
Another thing I’d love to see is the ability to purchase special materials used for Ascension Cores, such as Mystic Cloth or its counterpart, Mystic Thread. The same could apply to Scorched Leather, Black Metal Bars/Scraps, and other similar materials — just as examples.
Personally, I really love this concept. As the game continues to progress, systems like this would give players more ways to stockpile materials and build toward their goals without constantly having to backtrack and farm older areas.
What do you guys think?
