Would be interesting to figure out how to market such a thing to newer players who have low-level warrior skills...

Well, since I cannot come help you, here is a marketing ploy.

Sell the books as a series, say, 30-70, 70-90, 90-120.

Make sure the LAST rune in every runebook you sell is a rune to your store.!! (This is the line)

Price the 30 to 70 books low (think despise and various graveyards, yew crypts, etc). Like 2500 GP (this is the hook)

70-90 books, make em 5500 (this is the sinker)

90-120, sell for 12k. (this is payday)

Now your newbies will flood you for the new books because they can afford them. If you have good, safe, effective runes, they will use the last rune in the book to come buy the next in the set.

Legacy Dungeons are the old dungeons like shame, Deciet, Destard etc. Peerless have a Boss and you have a chance to get a major artifact. Some Peerless are Dread Horn, lady Mel, Travisty etc.

Wow, great resource! Where is your shop located? I may want to make a char on your shard just to check it out.

ATM, the shop is SADLY understocked. was unable to get on for 4 days, 3 vendors collapsed. Plus I have spent more time trying to get the FAQ started than in game (hangs head in shame).

However, I have pics of where the shop is on the lake austin forum (stickied) Paul Mart Grand Opening
