yes...what next?! rich *persons* club? I say we close this pandora's box before it destroys us all.

This would be a meaningful and positive change.

Interesting. I can see the logic of having such customization done in the guild itself, but in terms of making craft guilds more relevant -- what if only a smith could do it for you?

This is a non-problem. Loads of things deserve our time and energy. The immaturity of someone who wants to turn <nignore> into a racial slur isn't one of them. Such people will find ways to be assholes whether we change this particular command or not.

Considering the quality level of the sturdy greaves and bracers, they SHOULD be rare. They never should have been as common as they were. I get that it sucks from a personal perspective, but I that think if you look at the bigger picture, you'll also agree that they were too easy to get before? You...

Different mobs sway your alignment in a different pace, so one can only assume they are placed in the same spectrum of alignment as we are, for example an evil mob can be untrustworthy. Bump those untrustworthies to sinister is all I'm saying, which allows us to farm the alignment back up easier as...
