Shop regen still has yet to be adjusted...

In a realm of 70 some odd players, you have to wait like 10 levels at least before getting what you need from the shops. For example, I'm a level 28 Cleric. I desperately need Zeal and have been checking the Titan Spell shop 3-4 times every day since I hit level 25 and I have yet to see it regen one single Zeal scroll.

How has this issue not been addressed after all of these pushes? I see PVP has a +5% chance of limited item drops but in Non-PVP we can't get better shop regens? No one would have to wait so long for items in a realm that has over 70 players if the shop regens were adjusted or at least shortened. Furthermore, I'm sure this issue applies to PVP as well.

Since Zeal is my biggest setback on my character build, I'll continue to use that as an example: Zeal currently has a 5% chance to produce ONE SINGLE SCROLL every 4 hours and 12 minutes in the Titan Spell Shop with a max of 1 scroll in the list at one time. That means that 95% of the time the shop does it's regen dice roll, you won't see the scroll. Now I'm aware this is a very important spell. But imagine out of 70 players, 15 of them are priest classes. That means 15 people are going after that same scroll starting at level 25 which means you have even LESS of a % to snag one. This issue will skyrocket once there are 120+ players in the realm when everyone has a dupe toon.

The same could be said about Lost City, Khaz, so on. Lost City has not regennerated one single set of diamond earrings OR 1 single ogre bone bracelet, for example. These are not limited items but they are crucial items for various classes.

All I'm asking is that shop regen be adjusted to factor in the huge player list of the realms.

This is part of a reset realm. One of the reasons I didn't want a reset was fighting over the scroll shop.

I'm aware that after a reset the shops are raped but that still doesn't change the fact that shop regen needs to be adjusted to accommodate for the high amount of players...

Does it make sense that I will have to wait til level 35 to pick up a level 25 spell?

There's lots of things you have to wait for at a reset.

If gard wasn't dropping quest items I'd still have not done my 2nd quest and I'm level 51. (although I might have put a bit more effort into getting on to goru if the items weren't dropped.)

I haven't done apparatus, because I have to wait.

Also, maybe the regen is fine and there are just 10 zeal scrolls sitting in someones ganghouse so no one else can get the spell. I've pre-bought a few spells and have them in the ganghouse for when my dupe hits the correct level.

You guys are mega super whiners. And fags.

Teferi, since you're the single biggest source of whining and hypocracy, I have to say that this time I can actually see your point of view. However, I'm glad this has been documented regardless of the whiney demeanor. Don't acknowledge super whiners like Teferi that utilize your valid posts to politically position themselves in an advantageous way in order to hide their insecurities (and therefore self promotion of grandeur).

tl;dr ignore boring kids trying to be cool, keep posting relevant things that happen

Such intelligent.

Very winner.

Wow.
