Merge Idea Reply to this Post Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Posts Report Post to a Moderator       Go to the top of this page

Well, I've been thinking in something to help us with merge possibilities.
What would it be? A way to see what would the result of a merge be if merged with another item. Clarifying: after clicking on the 2 items you want to merge, the result of it would appear, and below that result we would be able to put another item to see, for example, what the result of the first merge and the other item would become.
What you guys think of it?

Well, I think that "merge list V2" should stay as it still helps a lot of players, including me. My idea is to help on quick merges and organization of the items. The thread "Merge List V2" is to help you on what you have merge to have an special item. That's why I think my idea and what you two completely different things.

Not really useful. You'll look into the merge lists anyway, eg.

You have 4 items, A, B, X, Y.
You merge the items accordingly:
A + B = C
X + Y = Z
There's no way you can check what does C + Z make, therefore you'll look into the merge list.

In the situation, you have items A, B, C.

You want to see the following:

A + B = X.
X + C = Y.

The proposed update would save you entirely from looking into the MV2.

It's to save time. The "Custom Items Sets" were made to save time and make the game easier to manage, so, why not what I suggested?
You have the following items
A, B and C
You can merge A + B = D and want to see what would the result of the merge of D + C would be, that's where my idea come.

There are similar programs made atm by players to check merges.

There was one on this server, but it started doing weird things and breachin computer security so Evan removed it.

There's another one, but it's in Polish, and not all the merges are correct (in my experience).

Anyways, this should be something done by those determined and skilled enough to want to know. I don't think it should be a requisite of the game as it's just one less thing to do then.

Would it make life easier? Probably, but if they keep making things easier, there's a greater sense of boredom.

I get lost in merges for hours, working out many different paths for consideration. As a result, i've managed to make some quite nice gear out of some pretty mundane items.

If this was implemented, then it would take away one more part of the game where you have to apply yourself to achieve success, and it would become another automated boredom.

I think it's a brilliant idea, and it would make life a lot easier, but tbh I don't think it's entirely needed..

Personally dont like the idea, work it out the old fashion way like we all have had to, making the game easier will make it more boring..

Nice idea, but not necessary, you can check it easily manually.

I understand why alot of the old timers dont like the idea.

sorta reminds of this:

Before you had buses, back in the day, we had to walk to school in the snow barefoot, and uphill both ways lol

Custom sets were made to relieve the server from the stress of people changing gear too often (basically nearly every player). Your idea will only increase the lag and as abovementioned, it can be easily done manually.

Btw. I'm in the middle of creating a web version of the merge list V2.

See, they had to change items too often, so I do think my idea would help a bit, but

That's is nice, with that then my idea doesn't really need to be implemented.
IF this site with the merges possibilities ever shows up, it would be a great improvement for Blood War's players.
