Hey, y'all!

Are you sick of playing a giant who needs to spend money to purchase and resize his treasures and such?

Are you sick of being among the lowly races who pay nearly double for everything due to their size?

Well, fret no further, for there is a simple yet elegant solution to all your woes - Shopping in sizes!

What this does is simply allows you to purchase any item that the shopkeep originally sells in any size you'd like. Simply input the following command (or its likeness) and you shan't be copperless anymore:

buy 16 tiny/small/medium/large/giant

G'day!

Ehh....

I'm not a fan. Even though playing off-sized people sucks, I don't see why every shopkeeper should be able to resize any material type.

It can be limited to certain materials, if it is considered that this is a valid complaint. But I wouldn't consider it resizing, he simply has all sizes in stock.

I wonder if you could just make a mage shop in Teron that is scripted to resize things for you for a price.

I support this idea.

There also need to be fewer places with large-sized entrances. Giants already suck enough without this kick in the nuts when it comes to pve.

Seriously they can wear size large stuff why cannot enter large entrances.

I've never understood this either. I can see not being able to insert tiny/small/medium entrances, but what, the giant can't crouch down and squeeze through the door?

I think it should be dependent upon the armor you're able to wear, as well.

Also, Sakhul's idea seems fine to me, but it should be restricted to certain materials.
