Skills

So I got an idea.... we add skills. I only have one example in my head, but I think this has alot of opportunity.

So, I present to you, the Marauder skill.
So when clicking on your compass, lets say we add 4 skills. The 4 would be in the corners excluding the ends (So slot 2, slot 8, slot 11, and slot 17).

Now, here is how this skill works. You have Marauder XP.
You can gain xp by doing 3 things. Dungeons, Relics, and lootchests.
Decrepit Sewers: 200 Marauder XP
Infested Pit: 450 Marauder XP
Underworld Crypt: 650 Marauder XP
Lost Sanctuary: 865 XP
Sandswept Tomb: 1250 XP
Overgrowth Ruins: 1560 XP
Ice Barrows: 1790 XP
Galleons Graveyard: 2000 XP

Now, for relics:
Tier 1: 25 EXP
Tier 2: 100 XP
Tier 3: 300 XP
Tier 4: 625 XP
Tier 5: 1075 XP
Tier 6: 1850 XP

Now, since lootchests have such large ranges, it has a formula instead.
Lootchest Level * (Tier)
So, a T4 is *4.5
T3 is 3
T2 is 2
T1 is 1

How long does it take to level? Well, here are the levels (Maxing at lv 25)

Spoiler: Leveling

1 > 2 = 35
2 > 3 = 80
3 > 4 = 165
4 > 5 = 275
5 > 6 = 455
6 > 7 = 720
7 > 8 = 1360
8 > 9 = 1900
9 > 10 = 2650
10 > 11 = 3900
11 > 12 = 5240
12 > 13 = 6950
13 > 14 = 8350
14 > 15 = 13000
15 > 16 = 17500
16 > 17 = 21650
17 > 18 = 25000
18 > 19 = 31000
19 > 20 = 36000
21 > 22 = 43000
22 > 23 = 51000
23 > 24 = 58000
24 > 25 = 65000

Now, what do Marauder levels give me?

+1 Loot Bonus per level, every 5th level is an extra 4 (Or, 5 lootbonus) meaning once maxed, you have a permanent extra 45% Loot Bonus, even though it is stupidly hard to get.

Spoiler: My amazing diagram of how much loot bonus!

Lv 1: 1
Lv 2: 2
Lv 3: 3
Lv 4: 4
Lv 5: 9 (+5 instead of +1)
Lv 6: 10
Lv 7: 11
Lv 8: 12
Lv 9: 13
Lv 10: 18
Lv 11: 19
Lv 12: 20
Lv 13: 21
Lv 14: 22
Lv 15: 27
Lv 16: 28
Lv 17: 29
Lv 18: 30
Lv 19: 31
Lv 20: 36
Lv 21: 37
Lv 22:38
Lv 23: 39
Lv 24: 40
Lv 25: 45

Quests like Thanos Vaults could also give some xp, just a relitively small amount.

Other skills could include Pick Pocketing, Cooking, and Artisan (Where you build weapons!)

 

You make too many suggestions. Take a break, now....

 

not detailed enough
powder relics either give to much xp or dungeons dont give enough
200% loot bonus is broken add some loot sets and its even more broken

 

Make it 1% loot bonus per 5 levels for an extra 20% loot.

 

you do realize no one will ever max this, right?

Getting XP is too hard

 

... Why make a suggestion if it can never be fully realized, even when implemented?

 

Because then there is always a goal

Even though there is a max, I doubt people will ever get it within a year of this being added

Once they max it, there wont be a goal, but how many people will get to that point?

 

There should not ever be a goal that's not designed to be reached. All this will do is make people mad when they can't get to the max. It'll leave them unsatisfied and unhappy.

The final reward should stay the same, but make it scale exponentially rather than in a linear fashion, so you get more reward for more work. On top of that, make it far easier to gain levels.

 

uhhuh

________________________________

@CaptGanon buffed it

 

It's a start, but have you seen the amount of xp is actually takes to get from 1-100? The values are way too low.

A better way to do it would be to change the rewards per level but keep similar XP values. Instead of 100 levels, make there only be 20, starting at 0, with the same values as the first 20 levels, except lowered by one, for a total of 35,000 XP (subject to change). Ex: 0 to 1 = 100 XP, 19 t0 20 = 5,500 XP.

First level gets you 1.5 Loot bonus, then 1.6, then 1.7, and so on. Eventually, you reach a total of 49 extra loot bonus, which is the closest I could get to 50 in a small amount of time (20 minutes of math).

If you'd like an exact 50; find a starting number, we'll call it x. You do x + (x+y) + (z+y) and so on, where y is however much you want it to go up by per level, and z is the last number you added.

 

But then thats like adding base lootbonus, which is the same thing as buffing lootchests

I like your thinking though, ima quickly edit my thread

________________________________

@captainganon better?

 

Definitely improving, though the issue with going all the way to level 25 is that it's more than 60,000 XP as opposed to only 35,000.

The loot bonus per level up is much better now, though I think it'd be nice to give higher rewards for more work, to really help the sense of accomplishment. If you really don't want to change it though, the rewards are okay as is. However, they may need reworking eventually, since it'd be much better to only do 20 levels.

I agree that 1.5 at the start is a bit much, but it was the only way I could get it close to 50 loot bonus with the little time I spent.

 

Max should be like having a 101

 

yeah... your right.

 

No... 101 is an easter egg, and there's no real reward to it other than 2 skill points. A system that gives real rewards and is meant as a skill that progresses as you play the game should not be extremely difficult to get.
