Personal treasure rooms

  • Okay, so I have this idea for having a treasure room you can store your chests and transfer from server to server. I was thinking about how it would work. So my thought plan was you could get this room, but only after reaching pirate legend. Then in each hide out there are 3-4 rooms, and your room can be either in the hide out of the outpost you spawn at, or one of the others. My idea(s) for locating your room is that you will either receive a paper thing you keep on you, or it will be a special mark on the map on an outpost. You can open and close your door, but unless you close it yourself, it will not lock and can be opened by any other pirate.

    Then I thought of ways others could actually get into your room. My ideas are that you can get a cargo run, where you can have the chance to get a key to a random room, and with it a paper telling you the outpost to go to, or a key you can find washed ashore or in a ship wreck, also with a paper. Of course, any of those will be even harder to find or get than a box of wondrous secrets, and will function like a fort key where when you use it, it is consumed, used on the correct door or not.

    Now, my idea for getting to even access the rooms with the key, even when not a pirate legend. If you are in the possession of the key and walk up to the mysterious stranger in the tavern, a new button option will be available to show him the key. When this is done, he will open the hide out to you, and you cam go guess which of the four rooms your key goes to.

    When using the key, it'll be a game of chance, like mentioned before. If the key is used on the correct door, it'll open and be consumed. If not, the key will break and, naturally, be consumed. And, of course, the key will become useless if the player it belongs to leaves.

  • @halomaniac526 The only real gain it seems of moving chests server to server is to sell them in alliances or to have friends join you so they get in on the gold. Other than that, there is no real reason to want to keep treasure chests other than just to have the feeling of hoarding a load of chests.

  • @swordcrossx well that's the point of it. And that's why it'll only be there for Pirate legends, because at that point you don't really have anything else to use the treasure for. I just thought it would be neat for those that want to save loot to help a friend, have challenges for other players to which they'd award them, or whatever reason they come up with.

  • @halomaniac526 Gotcha. It would be a hassle pulling all those chests out of the room 1 by 1 though unless there is a cash in merchant in there, haha.

  • Interesting idea but seems like this would circumvent the way this game was meant to be played. If you are storing loot to move to another server to give to someone else why would you not just have them join your crew if there is a slot? Also, it seems like much more work moving loot all the way down to the pirate legend hideout to a room when the merchant, gold hoarder and order of souls vendors are so much closer and just turn them in.

  • @hailsux well in terms of helping your friend he might not be on at the time you are, but you don't want to leave him out, so you can store it for later. And unless you are a hardcore hoarder it is unlikely you will have a ton of loot you actually want to transfer. And again, this would be available for those who want to use it, and would be an interesting addition to the game.
