Shattered Kingdoms

I don't think the numbers have ever been posted for monthly dehoarding: Just for the recent addition of only being able to hold 6 weapons/armor on top of what you have equipped.

The monthly dehoard isn't a set number of allowed items, it's a sliding scale based on logged-in time, with time in inns counting for more and time in no-gate and wilderness areas counting for less. It's supposed to be true that if you log in less, you can't keep much, and that if you log in more, you should get to keep everything. It also dehoards items whether or not you're wearing them.

I think you know most of this, but I don't think Dulrik's ever given out the formula for how the monthly dehoard code operates, I think because the point of the system is to discourage you from grabbing up every limited item if you aren't playing consistently, because that does nothing but take away from other players who are actively playing. It seems like you're just asking for Dulrik to tell what the formula is, but I don't think that's going to happen because the only time he's ever done that is with the logout 6 item limit.

If the code going to de hoard on quantity, shouldn't players be able to plan to stay under whatever limit has been set?

Edoras has the right of it.

1) Monthly de-hoarding is based on time played during the month. Any limited item that is higher level than the level you are allowed to keep based on hours is removed at the end of the month. This has been true without much alteration for many years.

2) Logout de-hoarding is relatively new (within the last 1-2 years?) and applies to wearable limited items only which you don't have equipped. If you have more than a half dozen of these, you could lose some of them at logout. This was not altered last month.

The only change was that monthly de-hoarding did not used to apply to consumables and now it does. That seemed to hit a lot of people hard the first time, but a) the first time is always the worst and then b) I tweaked it after June 1st to soften it a bit for the future.

None of this applies to non-limited items. You can keep as many of those as you want without any danger of loss.

Thanks for clarifying. I must have just gotten lost somewhere or heard some bad info. Sounds like wands are back on the menu.
