Professions

[darrensmith016]

Im not sure if its been addressed yet, im sure it has and am sorry for repeating it, but professions make an RPG and RPG, get the miteials make stuff sell stuff, etc etc, this could be incorarated into the current maps without to many problems I would have thought (pardon my inoscents) but you guys have done an amazing job, it seems like you could aculay do anything..

If professions are done correctly it will untilize the aution house, it will make players play lower level maps to get things they require or it will help lower level players as they can sell in the aution house, the game would be epic!

Sorry again to address WoW, with there professions:

Primary Professions

Alchemy guide
Blacksmithing guide (Could be used to make weapons)
Enchanting guide (Could be used to enchant weapons, or de-enchant)
Engineering guide (Could be used to make bombs, traps, even in the future fix bit in quests)
Inscription guide
Jewelcrafting guide
Leatherworking
Tailoring guide

Gathering Professions

Herbalism guide (Could be used to make buffs for boss quests)
Mining guide (On certain lvls could make it possible to mine certain areas)
Skinning guide

Secondary Professions

Fishing
Cooking
Lockpicking (certain quests could be locked so this profession would be needed to advance)
First Aid (not every quest has a healer, and some you spend loads of potions, this would be great)


I have made notes on ones that would be really cool if they were added. I know its not an over night job to make it possible, just a couple suggestions really.

thanks!

You read the idea of this In my thread

Ehhhhhh, I really was hoping no one would bring professions up. I just can't find that type of stuff fun. Make everything seem like a chore. But I'm just one person so if others think it's a awesome idea I say go with it!

I feel it makes more of the world given to us by spacetime, just more to do apart from aimless killing

I love the aimless killing! LOL. I was just telling a friend how nice it was to not have to work (i.e. quests in WoW) and just play this game for 5 minutes at a time or hours at a time. Although I will love whatever SS adds to the game. Awesome start.

Maybe some quests could solve the problem of "aimless killing".

[Reisclef]

Really? Quests to me seem like they're mostly "Kill xx of these" which the dungeons are anyway....

Professions might be nice, but possibly might be a bit overwhelming.

[Dizko]

Quests could include things like "Go to Gobi and tell him he owes me 5g for the drink last night".

Doesn't have to be killing.

Where's the love y'all?

[darrensmith016]

it will be really good, if we could do quest chains..

IMO I do not think we need professions in PL. This game is not meant to be a game you play 12 hours a day. Honestly this game is meant to be a play it on the go, do a couple of dungeon levels and stop, and with the current battery life being drained pretty quickly while playing this game, I think you will just cause more people to kill batteries and complain that this game causes those issues.

its a mmorpg, if spacetime studios want pocket legends to be known it has to stand out. i think they are doing a perfect job and with all the future updates they have planned this game could be epic

I dont see any harm in trying to find a balance trying to cover the needs of both the hardcore gamer and the casual gamer.

I don't think they should add professions, definitely quests but adding professions and other stuff kind of defeats the purpose of this being a casual game. I think the happy medium between both is quests and mindless killing.

+1 Completely agree

The game will have to cater to casual AND hardcore gamers. Thats just a fact.

All of these features is what will attract the hardcore (and more paying) fans,

And what will bring the casual players back is the 'Quickplay' button.

The game doesn't have to cater to anything. Its a "pocket" game. A mini version of an MMO

Anything that needs money to survive will have to cater.

I consider myself to be a hardcore PL player and I find professions to be a horrid idea. If I wanted a job I would go apply at K-Mart.
