Planar Store

Post by diddy33 »

Is there a limit to how many things you can buy there or something? twice now i've went into the store for arrows and lost arrows when i left, but i don't lose all my arrows. last time it happened i bought around 90 stacks of arrows, and when i left i only had 26 that i bought from the store. each time this has cost me quite a bit of money, last time was about 400k gone because of this, and it's not like i can pop back in and get more arrows because the portal is gone and i have to wait again.

any ideas on how i can prevent this? will buying them and save logging help? just wondering because i'm now broke and outta arrows lol

It's due to lag. Once you've grabbed all your items from the chest and you go to the shopkeep to buy, go through the menus REALLY slowly. The reason it happens is that when you are in the dialog to purchase, when you say 'i would like to purchase' the shopkeep grabs all the items. When you select 'like to buy them all', they get put back in your inventory and then your gold is taken. If you happen to run through that part quickly, then you use the 'like to buy them all' before they have been put back in your inventory. So when you leave, those items are still tagged as needing to be purchased.

I have told people this before in game, so since its brought up here I guess I will share it on forums too.

If you goto a store, purchase everything 1 by 1. I know it takes alot of chatbar space (disable talk for 2 min), and longer to purchase items (mash the 1 button). This method I have NEVER (seriously never) lost items from walking out of a store.

I've also found that talking to the shop keep twice, saying you want to purchase the items you have (again), seems to ensure you get them.

(it may say that you spent the gold the first time, when in fact you didn't, so I don't believe I've been double charged yet, even though it states that I have been)
