TOPIC: Trade Items

I was just thinking about how it's funny how many tokens will be zipping back and forth. Now that people will want to send back all their spare weapons and armor from common and uncommon stock, it's almost as if we should have a cut to the chase program just to save everyone postage. As it stands, it's probbaly something like:<br /><br />TD ===1200 tokens===> consumer<br />consumer ===500 tokens===> TD<br />TD ===reserve/trade tokens===>consumer<br /><br />Horribly inefficient, right? For some of us who end up buying a good chunk, it's almost as if we should just get sent our URs, rares, and consumables, along with a handful of reserve/trade tokens. It'd shrink a 1200 token order down to half its size almost.

All I know is I am excited to get home this weekend and steal the box of sandwich bags and start sorting this all out for a mass shipment once the form in place.

<br /><br />That's collecting for you.  Otherwise, you might as well get enough buyers to buy an allotment and just tell TD to send everyone in the consortium X of every token plus random assortment for the balance.  Would save everyone postage trading back and forth.

<br /><br />Us and eBay . . . keeping the USPS profitable!

I should add that I really appreciate having these trade tokens.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Is there going to be something for all our spare edged swords, armor, etc., like there is for gold in the reserve tokens?

Just so I'm clear.<br /><br />"Elven Bismuth - This will be available for trade for 25X of any uncommon weapon (e.g. B Sword, G Sword, G Axe, Sickle, Scythe, and Warhammer)"<br /><br /><br />So, I can turn in ANY uncommon weapon, not just those in the examples?  Just want to make sure these don't have to be metal like the common trade token.

Yea, I had a question about that too.  Is the Bone Javelin usable as an "uncommon weapon"?  Is the Great Helm considered "Uncommon Armor"?<br /><br />Surely they are, right?

You know, for a while I wanted it to be a trade item for similar types of ingredients, so essentially a metal for metal thing.  I think, though to keep things much simpler for me and hopefully for you, I will just say any token listed in the guide as a weapon or armor, of the respective rarity.<br /><br />So any weapon even bone types and clubs, and any armor including shields and helms.<br /><br />Greyhawk's army needs the supplies...<br /><br />Dave

<br /><br />Even holy water, alchemest fire, bolts, arrows, and bullets?

I don't believe those are weapons. (as categorized by d&d anyway)

<br /><br />Appreciate the reply, it does make things a lot easier.
