I find King baiting an annoying sacrifice of normal operations. To fix this I suggest:
A display case, limited to 1 per shop.
- If the King shows up, he will offer to buy gear from the display case instead, if present.
- Can hold any type of gear, up to 3 (from size upgrades).
- Increasing the level works just like a normal rack.
- Regular customers will admire it for energy, but never purchase from it.
- In the rare instance of King asking for food after, he will also prefer the display case for that too if present.
