Blood Crystal? Really? So instead of going to our great and powerful sorcerer for spells, charms, and potions. We must now go to them for fashion advice too?

Please remove these as a necessity to make them. It just seems odd that mannequins, above all, require something so rare and magical. The illusionist mirror doesn’t, nor the mystery box. And those are something, if anything, that would require them. There’s not even a hint of the Blood Crystal in their design. Replace it with iron reinforcements if you must. But Blood Crystals? We’re not making miniature Golems.

Can’t say as it makes any sense should be similar to weapons or shield racks. @Xardas

I suspect they made it require rare components so that people wouldn’t spam them all over the place. Displaying armors was originally pushed back because it was thought to cause a too heavy load on the servers, so maybe, if they required only sticks and stones, the servers would melt down.

The cost has certainly stopped me from making more than a handful of those mannequins.

With the way they are replicating actors over the network, anything causes heavy load on the server when spammed.

Game is just not optimized.

Sure, but armor items are more detailed and textured and affected by physics than e.g. a wall or a signpost.

I am talking about replicating actor data over the internet. Not some fancy client side rendering that is done with a GPU, which btw a server does not have, because the server application runs in console mode. Not to mention that a server does not have a display at all.

So piss off with your “sure” when you obviously do not know what a server application is, what actor replication means and how networking in a game works.

Do forgive me for my lack of expertise regarding whatever server magic is involved, but do you really think it was worth telling someone to “piss off”? You could have used this opportunity to educate me, as well as show your knownedgeability on the subject, rather than just reintroduce yourself as a rude and disrespectful person.

I wish you a nice weekend.

There was a German comedian who once said: “Wenn man keine Ahnung hat, einfach mal die Fresse halten”

It does not help anyone if you spread false information. It derails threads as you can see right now. I am tired of this nonsense, hence my harsh reaction.

I’m just going by what I hear and read on the forums and Funcom’s streams. As someone who hates spreading false information, I’m grateful if someone corrects me when I’m wrong.

But I would be more grateful if it was done in a more civil manner. Being a dick never helps get one’s message through. So please take this advice as repayment for your correction of my error.
