GRB Guild ship.......

Kick some Kobold ass - took their "ship" - we ain't slummin' no mo'.

F'n sweet.... let load that thing out. First up, bitchin' sound system!

"Bitchin sound system"

All I thought of was the campfire scene in Blazing saddles.... we don't need no "stinking" sound system - we got beans!

😄 Sweet ride!

looks like you left a 'treasure bag' on the island there.

Huh? Did I miss something? When did we get ships?

Update 5 allows each guild to buy a flying ship (or maybe it gives one) when you get to a certain guild level. We are currently at Level 8 and have no ship. Duck is making a funny from running around in the Pirate Cove area or whatever it's called.

Not to mention it takes about $50 in turbine pts for the airship.

Not quite... Guild level 25 is available to purchase air ship -
Standard ship is in game plat and renown only -
Guild can set up guild bank to place collective money in sales office in Harbor (up by mail box is s how room)

To up grade to "fancy" ship - must buy Astral Diamonds - which are Turbine points only - smallest upgrade YES $50 U.S., Largest Air ship class upgrade to ultra deluxe $250 U.S.


Atomm - Air ships come in Sm, Med. Large, Huge each size has "Guild slots" number of guild that can occupy at a time (small is 50 guild members at one time)
And crew slots (small has 2 med 4 small members( up to something like 8/8/8 Sml, Med, Lg these members (who you purchase with in game plat) reside on the ship and do things like Buffs (30 min) teleport to areas, repair equipment - all for free as they are NPC members of your guild now.
There are also Sm,Med, Lg item spaces like a med guild bank on the boat so we all can chuck stuff in to pass around ans $$$ is kep there too for a guild if needed, also rest shrines can be purchased, training dummy to show and record your hits so you know how well or no you are doing with each weapon....

Lots of cool stuff.... but it starts at guild renown level 25..... maybe in 2012 .... huh?

.... so in the mean time I kicked some Kobolds off the dingy in 3BC and claimed their junk as ours.....
We now roll - party boat style.

Suhweeet!

AHahahaha - Over on the Kyber server there is a guy who has been joining guilds with air ships - going on to the ship raiding the guild bank for items and plat then leaving the guild, joining another one and doing the same all over again.

Apparently they figured out who it was and Turbine banned his account on all servers.

Pooned.

We're ready to get the upgraded small ship - issue is this ship is an upgrade from our in game plat purchased ship to the one purchased with Astral Diamonds.

Ass Diamonds are only purchased from the DDO store with Turdbind points. Normally it's 200 AD but talk to the sales man and he says 120 AD - the upgrade adds come large points more small points and a dew more crew - anyone interested in putting TP towards AD's to upgrade?

You all like the ship and buffs? Worth upgrading for a larger ship with more and better buffs? Want to spend your hard earned TP on a better ship?

Personally I'd like the bigger ship and more buffs bit spending any MORE of my personal $$ is less than stellar - but would not mind buying diamonds and putting them in the account bank every now and then..... I guess.

The ship is hit ro miss for me. I don't mind spending to get a new one to some extent. How close are we to being able to get the greensteel alter #1? How much turbine pts/ real money we talking about. I have about 350 right now.

Glad you asked Bubba - not worth it to us now.
The new ship will cost 120 AD - right now 100 AD in the DDO Store is 2000 TP and 125 AD = 700 TP 10 AD = 375 TP Where 100TP = 1$ U.S.

We now have 0 Large hook points, 4 Small hook (Cha shrines, Acid resist shrine, Mailbox, Bartender) 3 Crew hook (the buffs)

The new ship would be 2 Large, 6 Small, 4 Crew


The first Large hook we could put on is at Guild level 30 and it's a trap workstation for a Rogue.
The first Large we all could use is a +1% exp shrine at guild level 33 then upgrade to a +2% EXP shrine at guild level 38
The Tier 1 alter is a Large at guild level 40

So looking in to it - an upgrade IS NOT worth our time or money until level 33 for the +1% exp shrine.
(And thanks to Atomm we are now GL 28 - from turn ins in the Sands w00t - Thanks Atomm)

(Note after you upgrade a ship and you drop down in guild level from decay you WILL keep the highest level ship you have purchased either with in game Plat or real money Astral Diamonds)

OI Double post.

What level do we need to be to get the next level Astral Diamond ship?

Yea, I managed to get between 20k-30k guild renown for all those tokens I was sitting on. Guess spending all my spare time in the Sands paid off after all.

20 for first ship (what we have now)
25 for AD upgrade (what we can upgrade to now)
50 for 2nd in game plat ship (will we EVER reach GL 50 with 5 players?)
55 for AD 2nd tier upgrade
75 for top tier in game plat ship
80 fir AD top tier ship

I don't think it's worth our time/money to upgrade. We've done just fine for ourselves with the buffs we have. Put your TP into something that we will use like XP pots, loot bonuses, or tomes.

👍

The thing with the ship is it's the only way I can use these for the benefit of the guild, rather than myself.

Duck mentioned the new ship up would add a first mate who would transport us to forest areas that we had all of the explorers. That sounds worthwhile to me, but if we think we can hit 55, it might be worth waiting.

I believe he is some one we purchase also Atomm for the 3, 7 and 30 day periods.
