PDC - New Skill


We have received over 450 entries for the PDC - New Skill competition which is a fantastic response. We have read every entry and have managed to whittle the proposed new skill down to the five suggestions posted in this thread. You can now vote for your favourite here

Artisan
Astronomy
Forestry
Geomancy
Herding


Have a read through all the ideas and vote for your favourite. Once all the votes are in we will create a design brief for the new skill. It is quite possible that we might not be able to deliver every aspect of the skill as they are written in the entries below and equally we may want to flesh out or add areas which are missing. However, we will present you with a full breakdown of what the skill is ready for you to vote on it on the 18th June.

So Geomancy sounds like my favorite but I have a few criticisms.

1) The imbuing stage seems a bit lengthy and complicated and not really my taste. But that could just be me. *the rest of the skill sounds fun and rewarding

2) The rewards seem very melee biased at the top end & in the middle end magic receives a bad item compared to the melee and ranged equivalents. A level 65 magic weapon and amour along with ranged versions at the same level would make sense. Also, the necklaces - I think the 'Mystic Necklace' should definitely be mage focused & include the occult necklace as a required material as not to make it dead content.

Highly suggest watching this youtube video on
FORESTRY
, it shows off the skill so well and definitely is my number one after watching it!!!

/youtube/watch?v=dZprbtOE7ZI

Simply copy and paste into this ^ into your search bar after youtube.

On a first glance, *in my opinion* not a fan of astronomy.

Artisan is not a skill, it is a task system , which could actually be implemented into the game in it's own right as a task system.

Quite like the geomancy skill, some points make it seems a little boring though.

Herding idea has some very nice rewards, however seems a little complicated.
