MoJo Report post Posted August 20, 2005 I was just wondering. What if we could buy a perk to get rid of a neg. perk, like a Socail perk - cost 10 pickpoints and 5k to get rid of the anti-socail perk instead of having to reset again. Heres a list of the ones i was thinking to put in. Socail Perk - 10 pickpoints and 6k to get rid of anti-socail perk. God Perk - 8 pickpoints and 4k to get rid of godless perk. Non-Hungry - 3 pickpoints and 2k to get rid of power hungry perk. I Can Dance - 5 pickpoints and 4k to get rid of I can't dance perk. Heaven Spawn - 10 pickpoints 7k to get rid of Hell Spawn perk. Hard Bones - 6 pickpoints 5k to get rid of Gentile bones perk. I just figured it might be a good idea, please post on what you think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ttlanhil Report post Posted August 20, 2005 the problem is that people will take the perks early on, ramp up their stats a huge amount, and then find it far easier to level, because they don't have the same consequences anymore and can take most of the neg perks #reset means that there is an option, along with real consequences Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MoJo Report post Posted August 20, 2005 Yea i suppose but what if there was a rule that you can only get 1 of those perks per reset.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MoJo Report post Posted August 20, 2005 i see your point but as i said what if you can only take 1 of those perks pair reset.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daxon Report post Posted August 20, 2005 I'd rather prefer the gc cost to swell and bruise up -- like 5x as high as it is now. Can't make it too easy on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MoJo Report post Posted August 20, 2005 That is a good point aswell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vanyel Report post Posted August 21, 2005 While I agree that after update there should be chance to remove godless perk I don't see reason to remove rest or them other way then reset. Nothing will change in these areas. Food level still will be 45. NPC will sell same items. Monsters and MN will hit you like hell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trollson Report post Posted August 21, 2005 Perks are an interesting aspect of the game, and should serve to make characters more unique (rather than just a walking A/D/P/C). For comparison, the FGU series of RPGs used a similar system in character generation, which was well balanced and entertaining, with both negative and positive choices. Although being non-computer RPGs, they had a far richer set of character traits available. I would rather expand the system, provided that well balanced perks can be found; though the 'reset' option does make allow the negative perks to be abused.

Alderan Report post Posted August 22, 2005 With the cost of PPs it would take to lose the perk, it would probly just be better to reset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kendai Report post Posted August 22, 2005 With the cost of PPs it would take to lose the perk, it would probly just be better to reset. 189847[/snapback] Perhaps that is the point, that people would no longer be able to reset? It would certainly add a most annoying edge to negative perks ^_^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MoJo Report post Posted August 22, 2005 It would make people think twice about taking negitive perks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arnieman Report post Posted August 23, 2005 LV, IMO, that perk would have to be: Macarena Perk - Makes I can't dance Permanent and far worse, with no possibility to remove EVER. How about: Atonement (Brainwashing) Perk - Can serve gods. Diet Fad Perk - remove Powerhungry Dancing Lessons - remove I Can't Dance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
