[Exploit (maybe?)] Sharpened Poles
« on: February 12, 2014, 07:40:52 AM »

I've noticed that sharpened poles sell for 2 caps and can be sold to the guy who only accepts melee weapons/junk.
It isn't so much a mechanic not working as intended, as it seems like it's a disgustingly easy way to make money, and to grind science/engineering. I began to suspect this was a bit of an issue when the vendor had 1.2k sharpened poles and 0 caps on him.
So far I had been enjoying the rarity of caps, and the beta in general. The FOnline formula needed a good shake-up.

sharpened pole? Iron dagger you mean?

Seriously though, thanks for the info. The crafting is beign worked on, soon enough, only tier 2 crafts, aka those requiring one special part, will increase the skill.

Yeah, shucking sticks making you a better engineer or giving you a deeper understanding of science is a bit much.
