Anyone else think that it would be awesome if ElTank could be set up to drink the 6 "beers" for +50 to your base stats? Not the end of the world if it didn't, but it would be nice if it did and kept track of the 30 minute timer.

I didn't think it was worth the time to code it as they only last 30 mins so you'd have to carry lots of them.

True, but for characters like my sword toon, I carry 8 each of Strenght, Quickness and Coordination. That lasts 4 hours, and is really helpful to have. On my Mage, I just carry Focus, Self, and Coord (Melee Mage).

Not a big deal, if it was easy, then maybe it would be worth it. +50 per stat is really nice ... better than a level 7 buff ... which they layer with.

Read the first post. I said it wasn't the end of the world, just that it would be nice. This is the "utilities" forum after all.

Not to mention that it is very useful for the "Tinker Bot" and "Buff Bot" aspect of ElTank. Another +50 to your Tinker skills (in most cases) is really useful.

I did read the first post. To me it's a thin line between convenience and laziness... grin

All plugins are a matter of convenience or laziness and not necessary, though I think some plugins are geared more toward laziness.

Just my 2 pyreals. grin

Well, since I run a Trade, Buff, and Tinker bot for the 3rd largest guild on Harvestgain, I have my own, often unselfish, reasons for asking for certain automations.

"Well, since I run a Trade, Buff, and Tinker bot for the 3rd largest guild on Harvestgain, I have my own, often unselfish, reasons for asking for certain automations."

Lol, that struck me as funny. It reminded me of an encounter I had at work with a County Commissioner. I work on a survey crew and I was marking the road Right-of-way in front of his place because his kids got in trouble with the sheriff. He came out all puffed up and self important and said (no joke) "You know who I am? I'm the chairman of the county board." "Who sent you to mark the right-of-way?"

So, I just got the image of you puffing yourself up, and saying "I run, blah, blah, blah for the 3rd largest guild..."

Now, back to the topic at hand; Why wouldn't you ask this on Elgar's forums? It might've even been asked already. I know you got an answer from Elgar though, just curious.

*Edit* Ok, I see your edit about using the beers for a tinkerbot. Interesting, that's not a bad idea. Just curious if the tinkerbot could be set up to drink the appropriate beers (or all) when it's asked to do some tinks?

Ya know after reading that first post, I knew someone would have something less than positive to say about it.... raised_brow Ya know it is like, unless it is their idea, they have to say something bad to shoot it down....

Like he said it was just a thought.... Give us ALL a break!

I would love this as well, as I'm constantly noticing that I'm sober again, and I only have the VI's that my jewlery provides me. For my item only guy, it's not only a difference of 10 points... until he hits the lottery and finds replacements for all of his gear.

And, in case you are wondering, I have all magic filtered, so I can see what's going on without having to see spell expiration notices all the time. It's not a HUGE deal that my attributes fall back to VI's.. but I do notice it when they do.

I agree.... I usually carry 15 of each of the 6 beers and it would be quite helpful, to "consume" them, with each Buff, as well as having to use them manually 1/2 way thru the buffed cycle. happy

Good Idea A M... happy
