It's not complicated. In place of having just one type of material, now you have 3 types. Each type is at specific pickup and dropoff points. Each type has its own price too. Type /sellgun to see which materials are needed for each gun. :ms:

Other new is that you can sell materials.

The paycheck was from you not playing a full hour. Gun dealing and switching to mercenary would not affect your paycheck, as I do it back and forth probably 2-3 times a day, and my paycheck stays the same..about 24k.

If you try, but suck at bodyguarding people, your paycheck will also be lower

I've seen negative paychecks. You don't just lose the money payed by those that are badly guarded, you get a penalty if you're bad at it.

If the person you are guarding dies, you loose 2x the amount it cost to /guard them.

But what if the bodyguard is too far from the guy he is supposed to protect and when the amour disappears due to the distance and die, does that count too?
