Title says it all. Please BB find something to do with it as we are getting truck loads of this and there is practically no use for it. Once you get to 48 and train your 250-500 cannons - that's it. You can only lose some if a block goes wrong and even than some adventures reward canons anyway.
Give us something to do with all that salt, either a buff of some kind for the new PH or a way to transform it into something useful.
You guys are free to post some ideas. Thanks
or better yet take cannons out of loot and force ppl the build cannon chains
I'd rather see something like a new buff made with salt peter. I know it goes well in coffee.
This new-fangled production house should have used salt-peter for its things.
How about the demo buff's be produced in the new prov house for salt-peter and coal?
lol they're produced with gems they aren't changing thatQuote:

BUT the real problem is that how often do you really lose Cannon guys in the adventures? I mean maybe if you fail blocks or something that uses cannons.
But cannons just don't die. So even if you did make a few cannons in your production chain. You don't have much use of saltpeper stock piling up.
The same reason you get cross bows and cannons stock piling up from adventure loot. They don't get consumed on a regular basis.
I built 500 cannons for that silly quest. So building cannons is not the issue.
Saltpeper does need some sort of other use to get it consumed more.
More choices to use salt please BB :) Still needed in game.
I've been collecting SP even though I cannot use it (lvl37). The results of a short search for uses for salt peter.
Potassium nitrate is a chemical compound with the formula KNO3. It is an ionic salt of potassium ions …
Chemical formula: KNO3
Density: 1.22 oz/in³ (2.11 g/cm³)
Chemical structure: [K+].[O-][N+]([O-])=O
Melting point: 334 °C
Boiling point: 400 °C
1. Use potassium nitrate as a fertilizer.
2. Aquarium fertilizer may contain up to 75 percent potassium nitrate in a solution.
3. Stump removal - Cut the stump as low to the ground as possible.
4. Saltpeter is used for making toothpaste for sensitive teeth. Sometimes called sodium nitrate, it is found in explosives and can increase the shelf life of meats and other foods.
5. In industry, saltpeter is employed in glass manufacturing.
6. As in ancient times, saltpeter still finds use today as a food preservative. It is used to protect cured meats from bacterial contamination. It also helps preserve the color of aged meats and cheese.

I have a Powderhut. If you have any issues finding a use for saltpeter, send it to me :)
lmao cb
Provisioning ranged support with gunpowder / cannons etc. would be a fantastic addition.
That really would be awesome!!Quote:

Could also consider catapults:
800 exotic wood, 20 wheels, 20 carriages, 1200 marble. Take 3600 minutes in lv1 prov. house. (720 minutes in rarity prov house)
Could also add upgrades to the rarity provision house, and have the upgrades unlock nuke production (upgrade with magic beanstalks or books).
Would spice things up and finally pump up demand for expert buildings / resources.
Fertilizer buff from the prov house would be cool. 500 saltpeter and 1000 water -- increase field output x3 for 36h. (would be very interesting if you could buff the field instead of the farm).
Best use for Saltpeter would being have to use it for a new type of Book for the General!
that would be nice.Quote:
