Bartering / Speechcraft

Hey all you gamer dudes and dude-ettes!
After identifying alot of items and then selling them to an item buyer. I realised I was losing money by doing so. So here's my idea to solve that problem:

A new stat, Speechcraft / Bartering (I haven't decided a name yet, perhaps you guys got one)

It would work a bit like this: If you equip an item with 7% Speechcraft / Bartering, you will recieve 7% more emeralds upon selling an item than normal.

It's a pretty simple suggestion but I hope you guys want it in the game as much as I do.

p.s. sorry if there are any grammar mistakes. English is not my native language ;)

 

Losing money doing that should only happen with set items

 

How can you sound like a cliche 90s teen show/movie/commercial without English as your native language.
(Is this what you think we sound like).
(You're 30 years late).

Besides that, I have mixed feelings.
While it would help those with less money, it would also further damage our broken economy.
Someone would go out and make a maxed bartering build, and make more and more emeralds.

 

I feel the same, maybe it could be a rare stat or something, that wouldn't be worth the time to make an all out build but also beneficial if you happen to get it.

 

The way identifying currently works wouldn't allow it to be a rare stat, as every armor piece has a set of its own ids.
If they were to make it its own skill, that leveled up with XP, or with you, there would be other problems.
Like coding.

 

I guess I forgot about that, my bad :P

 

Step 1: find an overpriced mythic
Step 2: get 100% bartering
Step 3: sell the mythic
Step 4: ???
Step 5: too much profit

 

Uhh bartering would only affect npcs and who in their right mind would item buyer a mythic.

(I think it was)

 

I thought this was taking about player "trades"

 

Adding a new I'd would be almost impossible and if it wasn't I feel this is not a good use of it

 

I'm pretty sure he means that the more bartering percent means that item sells for more. Like say I sold Gravity with 69 bartering, it sells for 69% more. Not sure if that's what they mean though :P

As for bartering, it'd be pretty useless. ID's only happen on unique and above tiers, meaning that the only tiers that are really affected would be unique, because you don't sell them to other players.

 

They'd have to make new items, and they probably don't want to do that except to fill level gaps.
(Btw why did you quote me, I already knew this).

 

Oh, because from the way I saw it, you understood it as the more bartering percentage the higher the emeralds on OTHER items. Also, I too am negative on this idea.

 

According to the thread, it would be something like skyrims where you get decreased buying and increased selling prices from npc vendors.
