The no housing playstyle
The no housing playstyle
Has anyone experimented with or successfully done a playstyle without owning a house?
I imagine for some playstyles it would be nearly impossible, T-mapping, Fishing, would bust the bank very fast.
But otherwise, anyone have ideas? I'm thinking about having my dexer type have some spare regs in the bank, some ID wands, full kegs, empty bottles, bandages, and a few sets of good equipment, and gold.
Characters are already made. The main thing is, I don't play often enough, and sometimes I don't have the ability to log in every 2 weeks. I suppose a decent solution would be to get co-owned to some well established friends who are generally inactive but very diligent in refreshing their houses.
Just interested in any stories or experiences you all might have.
I am not at all interested in refreshing a dozen houses full of rares. I have no interest in rares I'm happy to say. Just useful equipment.

A boat offers a pretty easy way of going about this. Just use it to store your loot (make sure you know what youre doing though, boats are easy to steal) and sell it off once a week. Keep the good stuff in your bank!Eastwood wrote:Has anyone experimented with or successfully done a playstyle without owning a house?

Also, with 1,875 bank slots per player (15*125) you should be able to store most of what you need!

It doesn't have to be a total self sufficient build. It's cool to buy off the player economy. Hell I have a GM alchemist but I don't see myself going through the trouble of making the kegs, rather just buy them haha. Time is money after all.

You asked, and that's one of my favorite builds if I want to play a nomadic ranger-style char.

I feel like Josh Lee will be popping in this thread shortly with a gypsie tamer bard beggar/herder/stealth without hiding play style to share
If your just looking for a storage house, I probably have a house I can come own you to.

Re: The no housing playstyle
I only have a small house for trap making but it's not uncommon that it falls eventually. I really can't be arsed with refreshing, escpecially if I'm not actively playing for a period of time. So, playing a thief could be one alternative for the non housing playstyle. The stories coming out of it is more interesting than the loot itself.

Step 1. keep as much shit in your bank as possible.
Step 2. sell all the excess, including houses.
Step 3. mark a rune inside the inn and label it "home"
Also you can transfer your houses to me and I will add you as a co-owner.

I did this once. It was boring without a hopeful wish or cA or a swallow trying to spoil my fun. Then I put a castle deed bounty on breaking into one of my houses and my ban list filled up. Happy hunting!

Re: The no housing playstyle
I currently own no house.
You only need a house for a few things, notably:
- macroing resist out of town a little safely
- storing lots of crap, especially pixels or massive amounts of magic items you will never use
- having a personal guildstone
- displaying rares and/or decorating
I need none of the above. I have five chars with GM resist and I don't get to play any of them enough to feel deprived of another build.. except maybe an anat mage, but I don't do enough field PVP right now.
I don't die enough to need billions of magic weapons and invul armor. I can't remember the last time I died when geared up.
With a crafter, I'm set on every-day armor. With a tamer, I'm set with every-day weapons and gold for resources. With my mage, warrior, etc, I'm set with guys I can have fun with. No house needed.

Re: The no housing playstyle
I've been just using a small the last month since my houses fell. It's nice, I don't hoard magic weps/shit I think I might need but not so deep down know I'll never use.
