It's fun and you don't lose exp. I wish we could summon mushrooms in town and poly it up like the old days.

I used to have fun with this as well, however, it did interfere with other people too much. That is why there were so many complaints with it.

I can see how it would become annoying to wake up, only to find all your venders dead due to some random mushroom monster.

If they could make it so shops didn't disappear when you died, then I don't see this as being an issue.

That or make venders invincible so they can vend wherever. (That brings up an image of merchant class pulling large mobs while throwing up a shop on occasion so they don't die....)

Or a huge army of merchants vending holy waters and white pots in Nogg2.

I thought the shops reappear once the vendors are ressed and you walk offscreen and come back. Also, usually someone goes by to res everyone and the person/group polying would as well anyway

I like this thought trail, however I would say, rather than invincible, instead have an effect like gangster's paradise or (to a lesser extent) siren's call where the monster AI ignores you completely or prioritizes other players. That way people can't abuse this to tank mobs.

This community can't be trusted to have nice things like that summoning monsters in town. I think that's been pretty obvious.

Wouldn't mind polying in eden. It's getting harder and harder to find what you need in there. Especially for new players /sigh

Polymorphing in town was my favorite pastime in RO. Please bring this back! It's just not the same griefing people on field maps...

See, why not try to keep the changes somewhat simple and realistic when suggesting them? ):

This thread in itself makes it pretty obvious.
See: mintypudding

There's a good reason it was disabled just like dead/bloody branches on event and turn in maps these days.

Absolutely no to this idea!! This would only cause harrassment issues of merchants and players who are afk at their guild spot, and a rival guild decides hey I don't like this guild and proceeds to polymorph stuff on said players. This is too abusable and would do more harm than help.

I admit that I was one of those merchant murdering fiends.
Don't look down on me and others that loved it.
You don't know the satisfaction of a screen full of dead merchants until you have been personally responsible for their demise.

But there's always tossing on the poly belt and valk mant in magma 2... :(

theres nothing as much fun as coming back from afk and being dead, then wondering which guildie (yes, friend. not foe) did it this time...
and the next time they afked you would kill them back. owned!
:(

i always enjoyed that, because pranks are funny



PS: Mushrooms disappear from alone after a while (even when they got polied into strong monsters.) Legalize, at least outside Pront.
Polying a Katheryne on your guildleader to kill him.... wait what he wears GTB? <- funniest moment ever.
