Entertainer Archive

let me say i'm NOT an entertainer, i used to be a musician for RP but i've dropped it since about 2 months after launch. Anyway that being said here are my suggestions I have for you guys.

Also let it be known my interest in this class is VERY high, any of you on Gorath may know me as the manager of The Kreetles, a jazz band that plays in the Crazy Roba on fridays. Reason i say all this is I love the class and I want the best for it but some of the things i'm about to suggest might seem like a bit of a nerf. Let's get those out of the way first:

1) I don't like not being able to dance to your music. The only dance non entertainers can do is "/dance" which is ridiculous looking. My suggested solution to help people actively "enjoy" a good performance and get involved in it would be this:

Non entertainers can dance various dances, let's say a fast one, a slow one and maybe one other. for examples sake let's say one of these chosen would be "Basic" This person could do the normal dance move of basic, but NO flourishes, this would make it clear who you pros were and who was jsut dancing for enjoyment. I knwo you guys don't wanna see bob the carbineer shaking his thing as well as you.

2) For ID. Let me fix my own hair a bit, let me shave myself. THose things shouldn't cost skillpoints. I can comb my hair back without spending years in beauty school.

Now that the "nerfs" are out of the way i suggest the following benefits:

1) bonus xp for ACTUALLY being there entertaining. To an extent where its not a fast class but would make people not just afk it all day.

2) Dancer and musician gets a bonus at master entertainer, ID gets none, this isn't right

3) Dancer and Musicians should be able to heal BF at camps, this would serve as a double helper for entertainers and rangers/scouts since now with vehicles and such able to be called anywhere cmaps are pointless.

4) make it easier to coordinate a band. horns, bass, etc should have slash commands. Something along this line, bare with me for crudeness of specifics, these could be worked out later. /bandflo 1 4 7 1. This controlling various instrument types, like /bandflo *horns*, *bass*, *mandoviol*, *nalargon*

5) not sure if this is an entertainer issue or only matters are dancer/musician elites but just in case: Your buff is limited to double of the persons current mindpool. At the same time, doc buffs have no limit based on the player being buffed. I can go from 400 health to 3000 health, yet my mind pool and mind stats cna only be doubled or less. I know docs have to expend items, but fine, give entertainers items or something.

6) Makeup kits for ID: Various self grooming kits. This goes with the earlier thing of saying i should be able to shave myself. Sell me razors. I can brush my own hair. Sell me a brush. This might make ID a viable moneymaker.
