I cant take it anymore, we need a fancy grinder!

The CONSTANT repairing of a grinder has driven me insane. Please, please , please........you gave us a fancy pick, can you please give us a fancy grinder?!

  • Agreed. Grinding stone in any large quantity is so cumbersome

  • +1 to the fancy grinder, but certain skill levels reduce the problem.

    It needs more units also. I have two of them but the 2nd one is useless because it won't switch to it automatically when 1st one dies (reported as bug but not sure they thought it was).

  • It's better than it used to be, but I still need to only grind 30 barnacles (say) at a time if I have many more than that. It's annoying when you need to get through 200.

  • We really need one, and a hoe too.

  • A fancy hoe? A call girl?

  • Maybe this would take the form of a new household appliance instead.  For the person who doesn't just want to grind a few items the old-fashioned way ... the Grind-o-matic!  :P

    Power it with a fuel cell, pop in your stuff, and let 'er rip.

  • -1: fuel cells are expensive and hard to make, and I don't want to use those for grinding in addition to block making.

    Plus, I don't need another machine littering my floor.

  • You litter your floor with machines?

  • Just the blockmaker and the fuelmaker, Fokian Fool... they aren't pleasing to the eye, to tell you the truth.

  • I've got an idea...

    what if crafted tools had double usage?  Or that fancy could be something you do too a tool with high level tinkering?  Takes fancy pick out of the store, and makes you make your own pick with fancyfication.

  • We could upgrade tools with the tinkertool other than just repair or craft them.
    Posted 16 months ago by Lexi Smart Subscriber! | Permalink
  • +1 icountfrom0......there ya go! Crafted tools could be our upgrades. It would help players make currants from their skills, too!

  • We were just talking about this today!

    Fancy grinders (and fancy versions of many other tools) are coming soon. They will be much more expensive though :)

  • Buy the tool, and tinker the tool to make it fancy?
    Posted 16 months ago by Ida Keen Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Hmmm.... Seems Fokian might have been right afterall... A "Fancy Hoe" is on the way!
    Posted 16 months ago by c0mad0r Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I think they should officially name it The Call Girl. Or The Fokian Call Girl. :)
    Posted 16 months ago by emdot Subscriber! | Permalink
  • BTW, if you repair your grinder to 100% then click on it and choose grind, I think you can grind an unlimited amount (e.g. you could do 1,000 rock in one go). And if you drink a Flaming Humbaba, all that grinding is free (even though the buff wears off while you're still grinding).

  • Yay stoot!!! Thank you!

  • I carry around so much crap as it is, can't the spice grinder and rock/barnacle grinder be combined.  I'd pay double the price if it wouldn't break after only grinding 300 items and used a lot less energy.  One hummer per 300 grinds and energy loss makes grinding a very expensive endeavor and time consumer.

  • Great idea guys.  
    We were wondering if it would be possible to be able to choose how much you want to grind (or smelt, etc) instead of the options of 10, 20, 30, or all, which in some cases could be a lot (1642 for ex.).  Sometimes you just want to grind 250 or 300 but you don't want to do it in increments of 20 or 30, and you know you won't have enough energy to grind everything all at once.  Perhaps the larger/fancy grinder idea would eliminate this and allow us to plug in the amount ourselves?

  • Yes please to Lurell's and WOOT for fancy tools a-comin'!
    Posted 16 months ago by RM Subscriber! | Permalink
  • wont fancy tools cost more? take longer and more energy to tinker?
    but i like the idea.
    Posted 16 months ago by GiaTori Subscriber! | Permalink
  • i also like lurell's idea!
    Posted 16 months ago by GiaTori Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Perhaps these fancy tools could be crafted from the Molybdenum/Copper/Tin using tinkering or engineering? Would give a nice little bonus to a skill that is need of some awesomeness.

  • Hurray for fancying tools!
    and a +1 for Lurell's idea.

  • A Fokian Call Girl? I'm just a tool!
    Posted 16 months ago by Fokian Fool Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Nobody was supposed to tell you Fokian Fool, sorry you had to find out the truth.  But you are having fun right?
    Posted 16 months ago by xoxJulie Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Hagbard, I don't think you can grind more than 300 units, even with the top level of refining.
    Posted 16 months ago by Tanga Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Oh you fancy, huh?

  • I hope the fancy grinder and other fancy tools are recipes for the Tinkering tree and not another tool that's sold by hardware vendors.
    Posted 16 months ago by SleepyAce Subscriber! | Permalink
  • fancy grinders would make flaming humbabas much, much, much, much, much more powerful.
    Posted 16 months ago by striatic Subscriber! | Permalink
  • *hopes they come with the blue tool usage bars*
    Posted 16 months ago by Gabi Subscriber! | Permalink
  • gabi, the basic grinder already has such a bar.

    perhaps you are thinking of the spice mill?
    Posted 16 months ago by striatic Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Yes :) haha thanks stri I probably shouldn't be commenting at this hour...
    And all of the kitchen tools for that matter.
    Posted 16 months ago by Gabi Subscriber! | Permalink
  • +1 for Lurell's post
    Would love to input my own amounts and not just for grinding or smelting but for everything in the game where you have a number option.
    When i've seen this mentioned most people have suggested a tool that allows us to do this but you don't use tools to eat or shuck seeds so my idea was that we had to learn a skill to allow us to do this. Maybe it could tie in with the better learning skills, an offshoot called maths or something like that.

    EDIT: I somehow managed to create Lurell's name as a link so had to fix that.
