Yes the gardening community as well as some cooking & alchemy skill folks have gotten great boosts and super duper things happening recently ... It saddens me to see disgruntled notings of some item unattainable with current game approach. Everybody can't have everything without some significant changes to character. I luv the way things are done - makes it mildly & credibly reflective of the balance of life & community.
um, well, *scratches head* 60,000 !!!!!
It's not a pvp event it's a spawn in Fel =- how the game was borne. And there is an 'or something.' My account has 7 character slots & I think the minimal is 5.
so yes with that .. no banana tree for Lily today.
life's just so unfair Just don't learn anything new & just stay the same ... & be sad things don't change to suit your needs.
I only wish I could have explained it so eloquently. I think that gardeners should be able to grow a talisman like that, makes sense in UO logic to me.If you believe this is fair, maybe the next great talisman for pvpers should be only made available to gardeners rarely growing a talisman in their plant bowls that gives, HCI 15, DCI 15, DI 50, SSI 30. Then we can sell it for 50 mil each too. That make any sense? Yes we covet the banana tree, but should we be coerced into being fighters or paying millions?
Perfectly said. I'm thankful for the additions to gardening and SA has brought me back to actively playing which I haven't done in months. But, I'm still disappointed that another long awaited plant isn't growable. However, Sakkarah has been great at interacting with us and she not only gave us a choice with the black/white plants in the 5th hive, but she left the spider tree, etc bugs in. I like to think there's a chance we'll be thrown some variation of a banana tree eventually.If you believe this is fair, maybe the next great talisman for pvpers should be only made available to gardeners rarely growing a talisman in their plant bowls that gives, HCI 15, DCI 15, DI 50, SSI 30.

Says a lot. It's a shame there aren't so many other items in the game that net 30 million.Anything they give to gardners will be worthless in about 3 months. That is 25k or under.
Where are they, exactly? I don't have a thief, but I do have a stealther. I need to break down and just work some thievery onto her.@ All of you.
They're stealable. If you have a thief, go in naked, stealth up to one, take it and leave. If you go at a shard off-time *no one* is there.
They're lying all over the place.
My understanding is you have to actually "do" the spawn, can't just randomly go in and steal them. More information about it can be found here. And going in and trying to steal things while pvpers are there means you have to get really really lucky to steal it unnoticed, or pvp to get them.@ All of you.

I hope it drops too, but may take a while....*ogles the 70million gp banana tree for sale*. http://vboards.stratics.com/showthread.php?t=160287If it drops to 5 mil, Raven I will be happy with that.
I think it would be cool to try and take them out from under their noses unseen.

I picked up a lot of rubble in Fel during the Magincia event while stealthing. Wasn't killed once by a player, but monsters got me a couple of times. I may actually give this a try, because I really would like some bramble, too.My understanding is you have to actually "do" the spawn, can't just randomly go in and steal them.

I don't want to sound insensitive, but you already reserved all the "cool" items to spawn in a Felucca champ spawn. The vat, rack, grave sites, tombstones, glowing runes and banana trees all spawn there. Would the pvpers really been whining if you had just given this one tree to the gardeners? Trees are something gardeners have been asking for for a while. Apple tree, maple tree, peach tree, cherry blossom, willow, and snow trees are obtained through tokens, not gardening. One little tree, and every gardener would have been so excited about this expansion.I understand that you would like to be able to grow them, but we cannot reserve all cool items to specific classes.
It's doing better, because you added staining and basket weaving for alchemists/cooks and tinkers. They don't care about what type of plant, only the colors.I could understand if gardening was slowly dying but your profession is doing a lot better right now than it has in a while. So that a couple plants are not available through gardening really shouldn't be that big of a deal.
Those trees are given through tokens because they are 2 tile items and therefore require a deed to be placed. Which is why they cannot be grown through the gardening system.Trees are something gardeners have been asking for for a while.

Hah! don't listen to the whiners, they'd complain even if you gave them a billion gold.So not giving you guys a single tree is all it takes to not be excited about an expansion? I didn't realize I had put staining for everyone but the gardeners. Since I clearly can't seem to understand what gardeners want, I guess I'll put my efforts elsewhere.

Which means the decision to have those seeds, save for the cocoa, not reproduce to keep them in demand failed. Might as well allow them to produce seeds now and not have to continue hunting for them.Hah! don't listen to the whiners, they'd complain even if you gave them a billion gold.

... If we were able to grow a single tree, it would be so common in 2 weeks that no one would care anymore. What about Cocoa Trees? Cypresses?
Sincere apologies to Lady Sakkarah; and I am sorry if I have offended thee.So not giving you guys a single tree is all it takes to not be excited about an expansion?

That can easily be turned around on you. So, some of us not liking a single tree not being grown is all it takes for you to abandon gardening and the players?So not giving you guys a single tree is all it takes to not be excited about an expansion?
See, now she'll probably give us the banana tree with a nasty spider attached to it. I think I'd have to leave that out of my garden.If they looked as good as they did in KR and/or they gave bananas I'd be interested. Where I'm from banana trees are a haven for some deadly species of spider, so I wouldn't mind a spider-spawning banana tree either.
