Go for 50!!

Not to 50!

[Brickdoctor]

To get it to 40 and then using the mithril would cost 4240 gold... That reminds me. I'm buying everyone's Grinding stone or whetting stone's or whatever they are called for a price that's better than you could save using it.

Ooh, I have a Grinding Stone. Not sure how much I want for it. Somewhere around 200-250 Gold, probably.

Tesni's got two, I think.

Not sure if she's selling, though; wouldn't sell me the Bright Polish.

[Scubacarrot]

I'll give you 200.

[Brickdoctor]

OOC: SP doesn't change depending on row. It should be SP: 7 -14/2 = 0 damage taken. The trade-off is that the counter strike is affected by row, which you did calculate.

No, because JohnPaul calculated it as (14 Damage - SP: 7)/2 = 4 Damage, reducing Damage for SP before dividing it by two. (Your calculation and joeshmoe's calculation are both right, but different from JohnPaul's.)

I'll give you 200.

I probably would've used it on the Crossbow to upgrade for WP: 14 to WP: 15 (Right now WP: 15 is as high as I'd want to upgrade a weapon instead of focusing on defenses.), so it would have been used as 150 Gold. Your next upgrade is 290 Gold*, so I'd gain 50 Gold and you'd save 90 Gold...

I'll sell it for 220 Gold.

*Even though I don't think you'd use it for this next upgrade.

[Scubacarrot]

Don't say you'll sell something for 200-250 and then don't accept 200. I'll give you 200.

[Brickdoctor]

I said "Somewhere around 200-250".

[Scubacarrot]

Ugh fine.

[Capt.JohnPaul]

No, because JohnPaul calculated it as (14 Damage - SP: 7)/2 = 4 Damage, reducing Damage for SP before dividing it by two. (Your calculation and joeshmoe's calculation are both right, but different from JohnPaul's.)

So, can we add this to the FAQ? And, what is the verdict? 0 or 4 damage, because I didn't half the SP.

[CMP]

14/2 - 7 = 0 damage, I think.

0 Damage. You have to divide the Damage in half for Row before you reduce it by SP.

[Palathadric]

On a related note, if anyone's interested in purchasing it, I don't have much use for the Heavy Flail anymore.

Around how much would you want for it?

I think Sandy subtracts the SP before taking the row into account, but just about everyone else does the row first. I think the latter makes more sense.

[Brickdoctor]

No, Sandy just rearranges the equation slightly. Instead of (base Damage/Row)-SP=Damage, Sandy uses Health+SP-(base Damage/Row)=remaining Health. The answer is still the same, and the Damage is still halved for Row before the SP is subtracted. In the case of the Free Hit in question, most QMs use ((14/2)-7=0 Damage) while Sandy would use (38+7-(14/2)=38 Health). The answer is still the same: Tarn takes no Damage.

[CMP]

Preferably around 150 gold or so.

"I remember that Master Nihai had one when we recently quested together in the Fields of Glory. I believe he's still around here somewhere. Tall Raider, shining golden armor, sandals with wings on them. I also saw a couple in Miss Hightribe's inventory when I looked to see what she was willing to sell.

"Other than those two, I think the other heroes who possess Grating Stones are away on quests."

Always good to have someone that doesn't care about in character/out of character to give you this kind of information.

[Flipz]

No zappa the kitty!

Internet cookie if you know what that's from.

[Palathadric]

Preferably around 150 gold or so.

Cool, I may go for that although I'll see if I have the gold for it. Not sure what to do with myself at this point. However, I think I may go paladin for now, in which case the flail would probably be put to better use in the hands of somebody who will be dealing area damage or at least someone who will be rolling damage a bit more frequently than Pretzel. I will consider it though.

It is, isn't it? I can see Barty snooping around in people's baggage now, peeping past his "blinded" eye.

Now I really want the seductive perfume.................

Kiray opened her mouth to say another horrible pun, but thought better, coming to the conclusion there was not much she could say. Kiray attacks Dreadfully Fried Chicken II from the back row.

Not much you could say? You're just not frying hard enough! Were I to meat such a fowl foe, I wouldn't chicken-out or duck for cover, but rather, I would batter them into submission like a dead-pan snarker, stating, "Your Goose is cooked." or maybe, "Order-up!" or maybe even "Supersize this!"

I think we all know you like to cook up trouble, Danny!

Oh, and back door team, adopt the cat.

[Scorpiox]

I'd be pretty interested in the Heavy Flail if Atramor would be willing to trade; I doubt I'll have much gold by the time our characters meet.

[Brickdoctor]

I would hold on to the Flail for now, Pie, at least until after we finish Guffington 2. (If you're coming and if Zeph takes you.)

Scuba, why would you sell your hollow blade dagger? Those things are pretty useful, and valuable...

CallMePie has the questionable honor of hosting Quest#69! I hope you have enough innuendo included in it so we won't be disappointed, CMP.
