hmmmm...
brainpower...?
I thought if you did not use it you lost it... and did not the scarecrow even want a brain to use...?
sorry...
Oh wait... you could use the artisan skill to build brainpower (gasps).

I love your ideas, including the ones on p32. I feel these would all be an excellent addition to the Artisan skill, aside from perhaps the getting free fish from fishing boats. These fish would have to be exclusive to the artisan skill and used for fulfilling orders, because free fish would drive down prices and hurt the economy somewhat.
These all sound like they could be difficult to script, but if they can all be done to an extent that would be amazing.

As for everyone else, I like skilling, and I like variety once in a while. Artisan wouldn't force you to train it, nor to train other skills through it, and from the sound of it if you gather and use all of the materials while doing the skill, it won't negatively affect the price of training other skills.
I like everything proposed so far; I'm only worried about the totems, because of how they might affect skill prices. (Since these will have a noticeable effect, these will no doubt be worth a decent amount, and as such will affect the cost of training whatever skill is used to make them).
Thanks
I was thinking with the fishing vessels it would take 6-24hrs a trip, that way it wouldn't devalue real fishing that much at all, because in 6-24hrs you could have easily fished 500+ raw while the ships would only bring back 27-100 a trip. It could be just a way to fish, without actually being at a fish spot, you get less but you didn't have to sit on a beach to get it, and while its not much fish it'll add up over a week. It would be profitable, easy fishing but it would still require a high fish and artisan level. Thought your idea was great as well.
Perhaps if voyage shipment is liked they should add land shipments too via kart/caravan. Perhaps the NPC's you are shipping to will trade you valued goods for your shipments like herbs, str pots, food, planks etc. It could be like an entire Artisan commerce system. I hope Mat K reads this?

I have to say, I really
LOVE
this entire concept of Artisan. I have a thing or two I would like to state my opinion on, though.
Experience - I really think to give people a bit more motivation to level it, and to make it seem like it's leveling faster that XP should be given per item collected on task. This would be similar to slayer. I mention this because how motivated would you be during slayer to keep training it if you only got boosts of xp at a time? It's pretty difficult to level as it is, being a low xp rate, but I think that Artisan should definitely be similar to Slayer in this manner.
Damage Boosts - Okay, I like the idea of damage boosting items but I feel that they should definitely NOT stack with existing bonuses. i.*. not stacking with salve amulet/slayer mask/etc. I feel that if it did stack then people would be hitting 40s+ on slayer tasks and blowing through them. I know it may be too early to specify this, but I feel that if it's not specifically addressed that many people will assume it stacks & is overpowered, and not want the skill entirely based off of this.
Best of luck with the skill! Looks pretty darn good so far!
