Merchant Archive

it's late, I'm tired and a bit loopy, but has anyone addressed the issue where Artisan:Business4 title = same as Merchant:Management4? Or was it Efficiency? Hiring? Anyway, there's a novice profession title that's the same as an elite profession title. Just thought it was odd not to have been fixed yet.

Titles are obviously very low priority since they still haven't fixed the commando titles from five months ago or whenever they were changed. Acid rifle 4 gives them the title "Ordnance Manufacturer" since it used to the the grenade-making tree.

Also, rifleman conceal 4 title is Hunter, same as novice scout hunting tree, some merchant title is Manager which is the same as an architect title, and I think there's a couple other duplicates too.

Give me som suggestions for titles and I'll spam the devs with them. They are so low in priority but the change might slip through while they are working on something else.

Merchant Tiltes:

• Advertising IV = Propagandist
  
• Effeciency IV = Businessman (same as Artisan/Business tree)
  
• Hiring IV = Foreman (same as Architect/Construction tree)
  
• Management IV = Manager

We have 2 duplicated titles. My suggestion are:

• Effeciency IV = Accountant


• Hiring IV =Head Hunter (or Recruiter)

accountant is a politician title.

Makes more sense for a merchant... oh well.

For the Artisan skill, how about "Trader"?

Or for Eff4, "Capitalist", "Entrepreneur" or even "Wheeler Dealer"?

Artisan business IV title should be Salesman, and merchant title should remain businessman.....

I'm partial to "Entrepeneur" (sp?) myself. "Financier" maybe? Or just go for the big gun: "Capitalist"

Robber Baron? Oh wait, that's the pre-nerf title...

For Hiring, I think Recruiter sounds ok also.

As always, my 2 decicreds on the topic.

My main problem with Businessman is that I'm not a man. If I use that title people ask me if I'ma guy playing a female character. I suggested Merchant (not master, not novice) in another thread. Some of the synonyms for businessman are dealer, merchandiser, trader, tradesman, andtrafficker. Dealer and trafficker sound too much like they belong in the Smuggler profession. Tradesman sounds like it belongsin Artisan, but I likemerchandiser and trader.
