That is high praise, indeed, coming from a half witted troll like you. If you don't care for it, it must be first class.

Say you earn 500 points in BB and unlock items up to the 500 point mark.
Then you spend the points at a different camp and return to BB. If you then earn 500 more points in BB, you will not see the 1000 point items unlocked in the adventure merchant even though you have earned a total of 1000 BB points and your adventure record shows that.
You have to earn beyond the 500 points to start unlocking further items.
So that is the truth about unlocking Ldon items.
So you wanna-be Ldon experts can all take this information free of charge and test it when playing.


I don't know where your information generated from Noll, but it's completely wrong.

My enchanter continues to unlock new items in the Northern Ro camp, despite the fact that his current available points are 138 and his total points earned for Takish'Hiz are 688.

According to your post, I shouldn't be unlocking new items for another 551+ points, yet I just unlocked new items with my last completed adventure.

You might want to try and verify your information, you'll find that it's wrong.

Oh, and Tarv wasn't trying to slam you on your grammar or spelling in his original post. He was giving you a bit of friendly advice. Paragraphs ARE your friend.

Posts without paragraph breaks tend to have a rambling, run together look, and most people just skip over them without reading, rather than read with their finger running over the screen to ensure they're on the right line.

He wasn't trying to be a grammar ****. He was giving you a piece of advice on how to draw more people to your posts.

Noll you have a lot to learn about posting on public bulletin boards. Tarv was trying to do you a favor. Most people would skip over your post all together since it would take too long too read. Many posters have zero replies due to this very thing. Your sarcastic and defensive responses just go to show your nature.

For others who might benefit from this I'll suggest the following if you are posting on public bulletin boards like I have for the last 20 years:

1. Try to write your post legibly
2. Try to be brief, concise, and very clear with your question
3. Get a "thick skin" for dealing with sarcastic responses
4. Try to mentally edit the responses in order to delve just the pearls of information you seek

Noll, you are incorrect in the data you received. I do not know where it is from, but I have spent all my points in a camp, and still unlock items with "additional" adventures.

Please note:
EQ tells you how many "total" adventure points you have earned in each camp.
EQ tells you how many points you have available to spend, without breaking the available points down to camps, because that information really does not matter.

EQ also tells you the number of adventures won in each camp, important for stats on your adventure stone (10 for a single camp is the minimum to get any stats after hailing the correct NPC 5 times).

[Edit] I love the OldBlueDragon and avatar.

Gah, it's not that hard :P

Look at it this way: EQ keeps track of 6 numbers

Total points earned at BB, Nro, Sro, EC & Everfrost plus how many total points from all camps you currently have, minus any you have spent from that pool. The first 5 increase only, they never go down. Winning an adventure bumps the per camp number then dumps the points into your spending pool.

Items are unlocked based on how many points you have earned so far at a camp. Whether you still have the points earned at that camp or spent them is irrelevant. (It will also show you items that will soon become available to tease you.)

You can buy an item as long as A) You have at least that many point in your total pool and B) You have earned, at any point in history, at least that many points at that particular camp.

Once you've gotten 500 points at a camp, any item worth less than 501 points will be purchasable as long as you have enough to pay for it, and where you get the points to pay for it is irrelevant as far as paying the point cost.

clear as mud, right?
