Dear Graalians,

i created this thread as an introduction to myself by expressing my ideas for the horses. i just recently joined (no more than 10 minutes ago) and thought i'd share my ideas. This is for staff intentionally, but i'd also like some player feedback as well.

i'd also like to say that this thread is directed towards Shannon, Callimuc, Rufus and some other players who i've seen had some great ideas for the future of Classic. They deserve the credit for creative imagination.

Anyways, i was going to start my own PC server but i don't have the time/money at the moment, so i might as well donate my ideas to Classic (if they haven't already been discussed).

For the horse update, i wouldn't like to see an overall change, just a new use for them. they have became less functional in farming, so why not create a new method of "farming". i was thinking more of "baddy horses" who's health are 5 and their defense is fire. they wonder around in a forest or field of some sort, eating bushes, minding their business. they come after you like the other baddies, and try attacking you with flames. Except, when you eventually kill them, they don't drop bombs or arrows, they drop something relative to the horses (such as furs, meat, etc) Yes, horse meat is good for those of you who thought it was a weird idea

Then, like Era, we sell these items to a shop. Would it destroy the classic economy? No, because when farming, the only gralats that show up in public places are $1 or $5 in value. When selling these items, you could possibly make them all worth $5 upon being sold. it would be a neat little idea i think, and something for PKers to enjoy while making money.

This is my first thread, so don't go too crazy on me, although i can handle a lot of criticism. Classic is desperately in need of updates, so every little inquiry counts, right?  

It´s very nice. But I think the prizes are too low while selling. With farming you still make more money. Even after the update. So maybe sell them for little bit more.  

i was going to say the value of red gralats ($30) but then i realised how easy it would be to make a couple hundred after killing a few horses. So, i'm voting $15 value. Also, i was thinking of horse "pets" that you raise in your house, purchase food and feed them to gain value, then sell them to a farmer or horse stable. For instance, we invest money in bombs ($30 for 30), expecting to make a greater return when farming.

So we would invest in this horse food ($30 for 30) and have to throw the food to the horse as it gains value. Might be a littler awkward though...constantly over-feeding horses. but the general idea of NPC horses was my goal. make use of NPC horses in some way.
