    ill call it clan trader as its intended for the whole clan. the whole concept of this is to deposit resources for anyone in your clan or trade/give things.

    what you can do with him is you can deposit grog, gold, or even gems, or even pirates, but there are litmits. you can upgrade the boat to raise the limit. the system of this is something of like how the blacksmith, stone mason and the observatory. everyone deposit into pot for others to use/have.

    how to unlock him? build a boat for him. and train him. lol its going to be a pain. his boat costs 2.2 million grog. to train him 100 gems or some insane amount of gold or sumn. lol

    hmm i shoulda moved this to genernal or something topics.

    That's a pretty neat idea! We've discussed some level of trading within a guild but perhaps we could extend this even further with your suggestion. Definitely something to think about for future updates so thanks for the suggestion.

    Not sure we would call it a clan trader though, I think clans are from another game ;) And don't ever worry about posting in the wrong place, I can always reorganize things if I think they'd work better somewhere else :)

    oh lol how bout name em after me lol jk. oh I know since this is a pirate game. make him a ghost, in a ghost ship. he travels from place to place. he's kind like the fairy man that carries souls to heaven or hell

    honestly my idea is a bit more original than trying to implament something close to clash of clans. I find that game a bit annoying

    Good name ideas there!

    For the avatar I think a few members are looking at the PP artwork on the official Facebook page and using some of that. We could create a few though so people can choose, but I know most people like to have something unique.

    Trading resources makes me nervous. Have to be sure that clans aren't able to move everybody's loot to bases under shield. If done right could be cool, if done incorrectly could ruin the game.

  9. Exactly. Definitely would need to be strict limits otherwise strong players could dump excess loot into weaker players to make them stronger way too quickly

    Hello, just newby on plunders. If it is a shared deposit than a good limitation could be you cannot take back more than 20% of what you have put in. And you cannot put in more than 10% of your max deposit. If it is a trader than you need to be able to trade, and not just to donate them. So if the rate is 1to1 than a week user wont be able to exchange much. Btw i think the trade rate should be more 3 gold for 1 grog :)

    Just make it a 1:1 ratio. You can withdraw the same amount you deposit. I'd like to see this in the form of requests made I'm chat. For example. I would request a trade. " trade request 1 million grog for 1 million gold" then someone who meets the criteria simply accepts the trade and it is done automatically. Requests could be managed through the guild UI. Make a request tab. With icons for gold/grog/gems/ep/bp. The requesting pirate can input an amount offered of only 1 currency. And select a desired return of only one currency with a maximum 1:1 ratio. The offered currency would instantly be removed from the players coffers. Put a timer on it so that if the trade was not accepted in 12 or 24 hours then the offered currency returned to the pirate.

    I think that would be great.

    It would be cool to have a new building with a boatman where this UI is contained, but it could just be a tab in the guild menu and I'd be happy.
     
  12. Fun idea i like it. kinda like pirate storm game they have a auction house where you bid on stuff you want guildies can bid out bid each other etc etc .. Heck put the guy in the guild hall since guild hall underused in the game.

    Having him in the guild hall would be cool.
     
  15. They can also sell island insurance 2 4 6hr protection ,anything looted is paid back in full or to a %. Guild island insurance id buy that ,can be a good amount to buy and limited every few days or put a cool down on it so players don't just keep that on all day then everyone will be out pacing the game. Anyway just some thing the guild trader can do in guild hall besides overseeing guild resources trading or biding o_O And reading them dirty sailor mags.;)

    @Bear do you have any update on this topic? I know that this could very well be EXTREEMLY interesting with the addition of the legends. The 1:1 ratio could be applied widely

    Grog to gold
    BP to EP
    Common items to common items
    Uncommon to uncommon
    Rare to rare
    Epic to epic

    But i believe we would all be glad if we could trade gold and grog at first!
