Vanity Items publish 93

[CharGar]

This is a question started in stratics:

Why do we not have more of these in game? It can not be to hard to implement a gold sink with items that can not be obtained elsewhere. It would be a HUGE gold sink if they were expensive. There is to much gold in this game give us something to spend it on and get it out of circulation. 100m for this 500m for that 1b for this. A good system would help the economy and give players more great content. Right now we just swap gold from player to player and spend a little on insurance (needs to be raised considerably IMO) We currently have for gold sinks? 50m for a special Duke/Dutchess name? 500k for a hair dye that's been around for 15 years? Blackthorns arties but no one in there right mind spends gold on those they just farm them or buy from vendors.

Examples
Hair Dyes, Tattoos, Piercings
Mounts, Pets
Weapons and Armor Dyes
New Clothing/Robes
Decorations (art is already there, pretty much if you see it in UO you should be able to obtain it)
Stone Colored Castle/Keep/Tower Deeds or ability to change existing stone colors
Ability to remove curses from item properties
Forged metal tools
Bring back bless deeds
List could go on and on

This simple gold sink gives enormous content for players and at the same time wipes gold from the servers.


This is the reply that Kyronix had:

We're all for items that come without any additional balancing concerns. You can expect rewards along these lines for content in Publish 93!


I'm really excited about all this!!

Absolutely, couldn't agree more as long as they are things that do not give combat advantages. And I hope that they will adjust the prices slightly for Siege, although that depends on what level they set things at.
