Problem: as a pure druid i have trouble making money for buying herbs
and the cost of herbs is sooooooo high in alot of places.

Had to stop posting and make sure im not just repeating what jesus said ;)
ummm, i never had the good fortune of getting a display shelf
but i do have the bad fortune of carrying way too many dert bags with me
I also noticed when you roll bandages, or make a roll from cloth
they seem to weigh more than gauze rolls do, so the point of me getting th
this skill is?
well thats about all i have to say, but, more power to pure druids
down with 60 spi auggies!

I think rolls of bandages cost more in rent too, people don't
get the skill for its original purpose but making rolls is
nice, it should be at least on par with bought rolls.

Hm, what sort of rent figures do you think would be ideal for
this? I think this is the sort of thing we can adjust without
very much difficulty.

Actually I'd be happy if make bandage created rolls of gauze.
It can be awkward at times with them using different
keywords, some of my chars use gauze, another uses roll,
all have a treasure map with roll keyword, kinda messy.

with rent for made rolls, how about um a %less than rolls of gauze?
anyone can sit in JB till she repops with more gauze, but some people had
to waste a prac, i say reward them first, nurse users second :p

I'm a full druid who doesn't fight her own fights and doesn't make
money, but nor do I -need- money to get herbs... it takes a little
bit of time and effort, but I have never had a problem getting
enough herbs to fill an empty rune bag by just walking about the mud
and picking them up. And with new areas always going in, most with
nice ground supplies of herbs, there are always more places to get
herbs without having to pay for them.

I don't know about being a druid
I don't really have one
but I know a couple
and was really close to one
and she never used to pay for herbs
except those beautiful fenugreek
she ran around the whole mud and
like Zorya says.. would collect them
buying herbs is a convienience.
If I were a druid, I would pair up with a big
friend and heal their XP spree and when I ran
out of herbs, make them help replenish them.
It's only fair, right?

Would be nice if augment didn't require a 2nd herb!

Augment only requires one herb...
You make a poultice with one herb
Then you augment that poultice with another
I think..

I definitely like the idea of made rolls being less renty (maybe 10? rent)
than bought gauze. I mean, they costs pracs to make! While I can't see
turning everything into "gauze" -peer umm scarlet letter turns into gauze-t of the Benedictines' garden.
it would be nice if gauze/bandage rolls shared a keyword that -isn't- roll
(Wow this note system is really buggy, I didn't type that bit about
the Benedictines' garden, it just plopped in instead of an asterisk.)
What would be nice is something with the rune bag capacity that costs
around 250-500 rent. One of my druids used to use rune bags simply
because they saved her 1kg in weight by letting her carry 1 less dert.
Kinda sad really.
Another way around it could be to make gauze rolls 0 weight, course that
could be problematic with surgeons carrying 328974834756 gauzes around to
first aid.
Or! Make it so that if derts are worn in aux slots (is this possible?)
they weigh 0kg.
