Overall, this looks pretty good. I have experienced this in other games in a number of ways.


1.
In Mabinogi you level up certain instruments to to be able to play them better missing less notes when playing a music score. Scores are made by players to play Hedwigs Theme for example. It was not just one skill. Each instrument had it's own skill you leveled up.

2.
In LOTRO you had to level up your character to be able to play certain instruments based on the instrument level. You can't play an instrument you haven't learned how to play so you needed a player of the Minstrel class(Who utilizes music to buff and stuff) to teach you. The instruments were not skills so you just played them pressing number keys or placing midi files in the form of .abc in your LOTRO Music folder and typed a command to play whatever song you wanted.

3.
In La Tale similar to the Minstrel only you can't play instruments outside of the class and I don't think you could freely play instruments within the class. They were tied down to skills(could use them in town).

We should borrow some of those ideas. Here are some of mine, but this is more so an addition to Construction. I guess we can say the Music skill will utilize the skill.


1.
Playable instruments within your POH.
Example: Clicking on a piano and entering playing mode with an interface kinda similar to the Snake Charm only a piano and others can hear the tunes and you can save presets and such to play different tunes for others when they arrive. You would need a certain Music level for each instrument to be played, but Construction allows to build it.

2.
POH have a Music room.

3.
You can create music sheets and maybe write your own and use them on an instrument to add them to that instrument. You lose the music sheet and have to make a new on

Continuation on my previous post

Music Room
- You can build various instruments and all are playable in the same way.

Instrument List
- All instruments currently in game that can be interacted with in any way will be updated or have a new variation of that instrument, but the current use will not be changed. Some may or may not be listed.

Accordion
Bagpipes
Bass
Carillon
Cello
Chimes
Drum
Flute
Folk Guitar
Cithera(Holy)
Harp
Horn
Lute
Lyre(Enchanted)
Ocarina(Crystal)
Organ
Piano
Shawm(Basically an oboe)
Snake Charm
Tambourine
Trumpet
Fiddle

Instrument equipment slot
- Most or all instruments will have an equip option. They will go into that slot when clicked on. This will override currently equipped weapons. Instruments can be sheathed.

How To Create Sheet Music

Step 1
- Create a feather quill pen and ink(similar to the phoenix quill pen or just that one but it requires completion of The Golem quest) using a feather on black mushroom ink.
Step 2
- Use the feather quill pen(or phoenix quill pen depending on what we feel is the better option) on papyrus to create a music sheet.
Step 3
- Write your song and use the sheet on the instrument. You will lose the sheet music and have to create another. players can play the instrument and hear the song or others can play it and you can hear it.

Cont on pg 19.

I've been wanting a musical skill for years and think it would fit right in with the game. Love how you went into great detail with the skill, quests, how it works etc. I support it 100% and hope it gets made one day!
