Post your questions here, and we can all collaborate to help each other.

I have a few questions, if anyone could illuminate me...

1: the mysterious seed? what does it do... I've only ever found one and I really hate wasting things that I might not ever see again on just experimenting..

2: do the unmarked pills ever become useful for anything other than a bad trip?

3: where in god's name does the #6 scroll drop?

anybody can post answers and they will be appreciated, and if anyone has a question that falls under my bailiwick I will attempt to answer to the best of my ability.

1) It does quite a few things. They're not too hard to find once you're in the higher level areas.

2) Yes. Sometimes they're more useful than other times.

you're the master of noncommital answers, aren't you?

Usually, yes.

However, you wouldn't want straight out spoilers would you?

no, not really, but sometimes, yes.

There are some things that are very frustrating.

Mad Merlin- is it generally frowned upon to have a multitude of alts for farming purposes? I have a lot of free time at work and I find that it's pretty profitable but I don't want to do it if it's a gamebreaker or if it's considered bad form...

It is frowned upon if you're negatively affecting other people, for example by flooding the Market or gaining a leg up in PvP. Otherwise, it's really up to you.

nah, I don't like flooding the market- but I have noticed that rick is like a drug addict with the raw dough, so I am more than willing to be his pusher if he is compensating me...

I just also wanted to say that this is one of the most engaging games I have ever played. Thank you for your dedication. I know I am a relative latecomer but this is fun as hell, and I wish that I saw more people online but I will be trying to get some of my friends to test it out.

Awesome! I'm glad to hear you're enjoying Game!.

I'd love to see more people playing too. I'm just a developer though, so I'm clueless about those sorts of things. I'd appreciate any suggestions.

Food items are among the most precious (though not the rarest), and some food is more precious than others, so if you sell them I will buy them!! :D

When I go on a killing spree I consume food far faster than I can collect it (even with the help of my minions), and I hate "wasting" stamina by adventuring at lower levels where I can find the food I am looking for. Far easier just to buy what I need!

As a side note you may want to keep some food items for yourself, as you may find later that you wish you had decent stockpile in your own inventory (for cooking, experimenting, & maxing out your daily stamina).

Raw dough is really hard to find. Can we please see more of it drop in the kitchen?

Oh: Unmarked pills are good for something? And I've just been selling them? Sheesh.

Alts for self supplying the main of the good stuff? Hmm... gets around the 100 stamina issue.
if you sell them I will buy them
Do you post prices for us in the market?

Rick usually buys them for 5000 a pop.

If you are looking for raw dough, I generally have an alt or two clear out the dark alley and end up with around two to three per run.

glad to see that this thread is helping folks.

I have another question- I have heard people talk about alternate black knights... how does one go about acquiring them? I was thinking that you had to combine a fully assembled knight with another item?

You think correctly. There are quite a few of them too, so use your imagination...
