<DIV>I had 17 poisons equipped, now after the patch i am left with ONE. Each poison was expensive. Where are they? If this is an intended nerf that we were NOT told about, then i am going to be VERY upset and most certainly leave this game.</DIV>

<DIV>this just proves how [expletive ninja'd by Faarbot] the people that make this game are. I don't even understand how this is in any way better. If it was meant to make player crafted poisons bought more, then lower the costs to make these player poisons! Don't change everything else that works fine, and dont delete all my poisons, put them in my bank/inventory, or at least reimburse me! :smileymad:</DIV>

Well it's not like the poisons were all that expensive, I mean really what does it matter if they make them stackable or not to you, they chose not too so we have to deal. I know none of the crafted poisons are stackable however they don't work either if that's any consolation. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

i wish people would leave this game over real problems =/which poison did you buy exactly. by the sounds of your other posts it was not player crafted. the store bought poisons are like (dont have the game open to check, just guesstemating) 20c for the 50 skill ones, then 80 someting for the 100 skill ones, 5 silver for the 150 skill ones.so you have either lost 4 silver, 16 silver, or a gold. (remember guesstemating. this is probably close but wrong)anyway. that much money is not much to make. coupple of loot drops gets you a gold easy. i dont see why you are complaining about leaving the game over something as unimportant as this. if your going to leave at least make it over something worthwile.like assassins mark being broke or something :pedit: dont know if its just me, but i had 2 stacks of 10 poisons on me pre-patch. even tho there are no numebrs on my poisons i can still use them. ive applied my posion a few times today even tho there is only one there it hasnt disapeared.<p>Message Edited by Sarevhok on <span class=date_text>01-07-2005</span> <span class=time_text>07:13 AM</span>

Assassins to do their optimum damage have to buy poison and arrows. Rangers at least get free arrows. We are the only class that uses 2 consumables. Considering I can go through a couple poisons and a dozen or two arrows easily while hunting, this gets insanely expensive. Now poisons dont even stack, so I either have to use up a ton of slots or run to the alchemist all the time?This is a bit agrevating.

<DIV>Well imho those that go with the "what's the big deal" side of the discussion are missing the point, at least with regards to the monetary aspects. What difference does it make if someone lost a stack of poision that cost 1cp? That's still 1cp they've lost, who cares that it's only 1cp, where there was no warning ahead of time. Do you not think, at the very least, SoE could have posted something a couple days ahead and said "we're going to change poisons to such and such so if you have a lot of them you'd better sell them"? That would have been the customer oriented approach. Will you think differently if they suddenly decide to make food & drink unstackable without warning you ahead of time? It's not, to my mind, a matter of economics, although I agree with those that say 20sp or 1gp is a lot to them, as much as it is a matter of good customer rapport. Warn us ahead of time or make some plan to compensate those that have suffered financial loss, regardless of amount.</DIV>

<DIV>That's funny.  My stack of 20 Catacomb Sludge got replaced with a single 20 charge Catacomb Sludge.  Wait, what's the problem?</DIV>
