  • Ennui, Trophies & Alternative Advancement

    I know that the raising of TS caps has been hotly debated and with due diligence thereof. Ditto tradeskill ideas and their AAs.

    How about a combination of all them. An AA line to increase trophy elevation by 1% per level per skill. Five levels at 5 aa per level to raise your trophy's cap. Make each new level 8-9-10-11-12 worth more and more successful combines. 1200/1500/1800/2100/2400 combines.

    Why? Once I have maxxed skill and trophy I often pigeonhole that skill. Give tradeskillers with maxxed skill and trophy find a reason to make stuff again. It will put gear in the hands of those that need it and create competition amongst high end tradeskillers again.

    I still have lots to do (yes those last 9 points in Fletching to get to 2700/2700 are troublesome and I need to finish off a few trophies) but I don't get off my mountain of plats much anymore unless it is for a regular customer.

    I don't need the plats. I don't need the titles. But this creates a new impetus for making things for those in need. Give us a target for exping and tradeskilling all at once and we will run willingly to it.

    Ready to be wrong but hope to start a conversation,

    While I understand your wants...

    The trophies are ALSO currently an issue for me, along with the mastery AA's Despite me making them.

    Percentage effects just scale HORRIBLY.

    *IF* I can get a change to allow me to do a +-skill instead of +-%skill I can go further. But 15%, or 45 points is as far as I currently want to go.

      Thanks for your input.

      As usual, a gentle no from you at least lets us know you hear us.

      Always appreciative,
