Musician Archive

I might add that in order to accomodate master entertainer I have to drop dance 4040 (i.e. exotic2). Arrrgh!!! I love the base dance but I was honestly disappointed by the flourishes.

Ah well, this game is all about trying new things. I wonder how waltz, my favorite song, sounds on the mando?

The waltz sounds good, but not as good as with a Chidinkalu Horn.

LOL

Here we go again

P.S. As always...leave the Mando where it is!

"OMG i just got my nalargon and played Virtuoso and it freaking rawkz. Even SW1 sounds good again with the nalargon! woota i'm deleting my jedi to make room for another Master Musician!"

honestly. did you ever see anyone post that?

i dont think i ever did. but how man "mandoviol rocks" posts have you seen? plenty.

yes, the most exciting instrument, the one that is most fun to play, is given to the Master Entertainer ... not Master Musician.

the obstacle to moving the mandoviol to the Musician tree is not logic ... logically, it belongs there ... it is the lack of other attractive, valuable benefits to Master Entertainer. basically, the mandoviol and ceremonial are the *only* good benefits to ME.

this can be fixed.

add some truly good, fun benefits to Master Entertainer. give them *tons* of cool stuff. magic tricks. party favors. let them target someone and /invitedance and actually get the other person dancing.plate spinning. juggling. knife throwing. cartwheels. backflips. limbo dancing. let them pull coins out of pplz ears. let them pull durnis out of hats. let them tumble to kneeling and shout hey! for that big hollywood finish. let them craft party favors that duplicate spotlight or smoke bomb. give them the /telljoke command that forces ppl to animate laughter ... would make them great in pvp : )

but put the musical instrument in the musician line. please.

The underlying problem is not that the master entertainer gets one song and one instrument. The underlying problem is that the musician tree is lacking in fun and unique items/songs. What do we get in musician:

• novice: a traz (upgraded horn)


• mk1: ballad


• mk2: bandfill


• mk3: waltz and chicken horn (upgraded horn again!)


• mk4: jazz and ommni (on-the-ground bandfill)


• master: narg and virtuoso

(Doing list from memory, may be wrong) So wait, at most levels we get EITHER an instrument OR a song? And of those instruments, two are upgraded horns that we've had since entertainer, two percussion instruments that sound alike, and a visually impressive piano that is difficult to target and sounds (in my opinion)like we've entered the tiki lounge.

The problem doesn't lie in the one perk given to master entertainer, the problem is the lack of perks in the musician line. I don't know if adding ceremonial and the mando will solve this.
