Geneforge - Item Values
1.) Introduction
I am Samcan. My most favourite of RPGs is Spiderweb Software's Avernum,
Geneforge and Avadon
series plus Nethergate. I hope you find the game guide information in this FAQ
good to digest
and aid you in your gameplay. If there's anything I missed feel free to bring
it up in the
Board of this game. Constructive criticism, complements and commentary are
welcome. Nuf said,
let's begin the FAQ.
2.) About this FAQ
This FAQ focuses on the values of items featured in Geneforge. That includes
the item type
they are categorized as, item names, selling value and all seven purchasing
values.
The Items are divided into six Categories. The first three Categories list
equippable items
including Melee Weapons, Missile Weapons and Equipment. The latter four include
Powerups,
Useful Stuff and Miscellaneous. Items that are marked as useful are tools,
quest items and
items that can be sold for money that don't fit into other categories such as
Gemstones.
Miscellaneous items are not listed because they don't have any uses or values.
All items are
listed alphabetically.
Items that at quantified are marked with a brackets and asterisk (*) symbol
next to the
respective item names.
What isn't included in the FAQ are the item traits, weight in pounds, locations
of the items
and the shops you can buy them from. Those details can be found on separate
FAQs.
I went through all the items and their values. The only item that hasn't got
any details is
the Glaahk Shield, which is very difficult to find and I've only heard mention
in the Basic
Geneforge Script, referenced in the final section. If anyone wants to fill me
in, contact me
at sammycanver(at)yahoo.com or post in the Board of this game and provide
references if you
can.
3.) Prices
The seven purchasing values and selling values of the items are determined by
the average item
value and the prices that the shops choose to charge for the item. The
purchasing value is
indicated by a dollar sign and a number. The higher the number, the more
expensive the item is,
ranging from one to seven.
The item starts off at an average value and is multipled by a certain decimal
number to output
the matching purchase value type and selling value. The mathematics are
demonstrated below,
taking for example a bronze sword which has a value of 40.
VALUE TYPE DEFINITION BRONZE SWORD FORMULA FINAL VALUE
Sell Selling Price 40 x 0.25 10
$1 Extremely Cheap 40 x 0.6 24
$2 Very Reasonable 40 x 0.8 32
$3 Pretty Average 40 x 1 40
$4 Slightly Expensive 40 x 1.2 48
$5 Expensive 40 x 1.4 56
$6 Exorbitant 40 x 1.7 68
$7 Utterly Ridiculous 40 x 2.2 88
One thing to note about selling prices is that they'll always sell to the
minimal decimal.
For example if the selling price of a single thorn is 2.5, you'll only get 2
coins, but two
thorns will grant you 5 coins, so it's always a good idea to sell quantified
items in even
amounts.
