Couple of suggestions

[~Emi~]

Hello everyone

I'm here again to yet again try some suggestions. Here they are:

1. In artisan we need to reach 500 before we are allowed to take on journeyman, so to make it easier my suggestion is to add the skill and unlocked potential to the index. This is since an artisan can learn unlocked potential a few dozen times and have a few hundred over the normal cap without being able to take the technique journeyman.

2. More a wish than a suggestion I guess as I doubt it'll happen, but I'd want us to have the combined cost of a combined item to happen before the reduction. (1/2 or up to 1/5 with journeyman). Because items like a swords or flying machines are all items that are already made out of several components, so to add another few of them really shouldn't take that much longer time. It would also make more people to create unique and creative items as their special gear instead of just having a bunch of different items.

3. Can't remember if this has been suggested before.(cant find it from search at least).

Have the technique graded before continuing onto the next technique even if you are learning the same technique. (Except Skills: You may continue to post training for Skills).

I'd like for us to allow techniques with unlimited times learned would be in the same category as skills, making us allowed to make several training posts in a row and when graded at the end we learn the technique as many times as we are capable of with that TP. For example: training shunshin with 7 training posts rewards the S ranked ninja 47 TP, making him gain the shunshin technique 4 times and can continue on with the 7/10.

The coming ones were suggested here, but since it was ignored I'd try to get some eyes on them here.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4. More title possibilities as there's a lot of genins with ridiculous TP amounts without having any specific title to brag about to the new guys, making it seem like the power houses are just grinders of TP.


5. Achievments. When people do things on the forum, they do it because they need to reach a goal, so why not add a lot of smaller goals along the way, like:

• Explore Ame no Kuni 10 pts: Travel to the land of rain and make at least two normal rp posts discovering the area before moving on.
  
• Explore the world 30 pts: The person has earned all the explore achievements and earns the title of "The wanderer".
• Murderer 30 pts: The person has successfully killed another player.
• Experienced Artisan 10 pts: The user has created items worth at least 100'000 ryo
• Master Artisan 20 pts: The user has created items worth at least 1'000'000 ryo.

Most of the achievements would be "one time" only, but some could be redone several times to just reach higher levels, but with little achievements points. So, why have this except to have a little reward for doing random stuff? because we can have this as an optional way to get TP from. We do gain experience in real life from doing all kinds of stuff after all. The gain would however not be nearly as effective way to get than to actually train, but something like 100 points rewards 10 TP or something.


6. During revotes of new kages, allow the people in the village to get free recreates into the kage role if they use their main account (the main account doesn't need to be in the village), but if they step down or are forced down within a year they lose the scrap the recreate would've cost. This is to give those wanting to be kages an incentive to go for it. But also to get them to have actual kage-worthy accounts keeping the title. Because I'm quite sure that a lot of people loose respect for the kage if he/she is a 8 year old D ranked ninja. THEY CAN BE GREAT KAGES, I know that, but I want the kages to make sense ic as well as being the main focus of the player.

1. EDIT: You can actually do this with combined items, do them individually and then put them together. You can't do it for whole items.

2. Not happening. It's for the complete cost. We looked at it with before costs and saw that you'll be getting really no effect.

3. We made training easier, not making it that easy. We want to make sure people stop at a certain point instead of assuming they are getting full grades so not allowing this one either.

4. Maybe, we'll see on this one. Thing is lol that's all the titles there are. There's also ANBU but you have to be Chunin. Just because you are a powerhouse doesn't mean you are competent to lead. People assume high TP means something but it doesn't.

5. I've considered this before, never really thought people would want this. Problem is I can see people spamming trying to earn specific achievements. We'll see. This will be a process to make.

6. Why? This is for characters and for characters only. I'm fine with child Kages. I've seen animes where there was a child that ran an organization but she was tough as nails even though she wasn't strong.

[~Emi~]

1. Looks like you edited the answer for question two here, so I guess I'll re-motivate this The skill for a crafting type is the overall knowledge and ability to perform a craft, so by increasing that ability a character would be closer to master his knowledge in the field? Because the crafting skills are directly linked to the craft as it is the base of it, but currently aren't applying to master it.

2. Yea, just wanted us to get the effect for the whole thing to have people make more unique items without being de-motivated. The difference is in this spoiler if curious.

SPOILER: Click to show

example: Rideback with 2 flashlights in the front, a compass, a monitor and a tracking device on the panel is currently:

75000/5 + 2000/2 + 500/2 + 12000/2 + 3000/2 = 23 750

This is exactly the same as if we brought the stuff with us and just temporarily put it on the rideback, with the negative part that it could fall off but with the positive part that it can be brought along after the ride.

So the suggestion is to not have it like that, and instead make it:

(75000 + 2000 + 500 + 12000 + 3000) /5 = 18 500

The reasoning why this also could be logical is that when making the rideback, it would be easier to create stuff attached to it as you already have a source of electricity (doesn't need to make any socket or battery), the item can be larger as it doesn't need to be handheld no more and you can use the already existing parts to fit the additional item in.

Sure, balancing is key. But this is my suggestion and the reasoning why I think so.

But yea, since its not happening, this suggestion is otiose.

3. Yea, what I expected.

4. The purpose of this is not to allow powerhouses to gain titles to lead squads or stuff like that, but general ones like "The Forsaken", "The Loyal", "Shoyoma the Red Wrath of the sand" and stuff like that. Obviously it would require effort to gain them, but as most people are doing stuff, just not always managing to get chunin, I don't think they should be stuck in the eternal "you're just a genin"-phase, they would be Bathûm the Loremaster or The Sundering Sally, still outranked by chunins but with some weight behind their names.

5. isn't it good for people to spam stuff to earn achievements? That means more activity. We just needs to make sure they are balanced.

6. well, we have different opinions on who would be a suitable leader over an army I guess, but I still think we should promote the kages to move their main account to become kage, maybe not for the power then, but for the sake of activity. We want them to put their most effort into roleplay within the village. There shouldn't be any forcing, but just a carrot making more people choose to do so. Maybe?

1. Ya sorry I did edit the wrong one. My answer was that I wont be changing it. It's a master technique. If people want to craft easier they have to earn it. Journeyman basically means you are not a noob and that is where the name of the technique comes from.

4. I'm open to titles but it have to be Event based.

5. Not if all they are doing is doing it on their own. We want to promote RP with others not have people just RP by themselves. We have plenty of people staying in their own threads. I'll look into this and probe some minds. No guarantees.

6. Sorry but I will not be taking this suggestion.

Snowflake has a title like that

"King of the Rats"

Because of his rat genocide earlier

[~Emi~]

5. Then we can have all the (good?) achievements be required to have 2 or more players taking it. For example:

"I can show you the world" 50 pts, along with a friend the character has visited and roleplayed in all of the known nations.

"Dear friends" 20 pts, Two players or more has rped together for at least 20 posts each.

"The providers" 20 pts, The players has finished a total of 5 Missions together.

"There and back again" 50 pts, Two or more players has successfully finished an A or S ranked mission or event together, must include both travels and severe risk.

And so forth ?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And for the "King of the Rats", I don't know why he was granted the title when people do weird stuff and doesn't get titles normally.

[The Bearer of Bad News]

publicity, visibility. its not enough to do weird shit. people have to know about it.

[~Emi~]

Popularity is really not a fair way to get stuff from, as 95% of the players won't reach the amount of readers needed to gain something even if they did something cool. Hence the suggestion to make it possible to strive for.
