I love my Ahazi Master Ent/Master Musician. I rarely play him unfortunately. The inspiration buffs I think is a great idea, its something that nobody else can do and there are a lot of people I know that don't do anything without them. There are a lot of downsides to the prof though that make it very boring in the long run.
There are no goals after you master what you are set out to master and do the one quest they made for Musicians/Dancers. The covercharge was a great idea, but not everyone uses it especially grinders which is understandable.
-Theyneedto make it soin order to give inspiration buffs you need to be at the keyboard and have a cover charge of at least 1000 creds. Maybe this will add more socialization rewarding at the keyboard players.
Too bad they can't make some kind of "celebrity" system. Where you can work your way to becoming famous. Maybe enable some fun commands like "/fans" or "/groupie", and have a bunch of random NPCs surround your looking for autographs and taking pictures. Maybe have opportunities to get contracts that you can fullfill to get credits.
Just some ideas that I thought would be good to throw out there.

i like the fame idea
that would make the prof so much more fun! yet with the NPC's followin you it could get annoying and cause lag at some point :/

lol, VERY good point.... the price for being a super-star
It sounds like a VERY fun idea i must say. Could really boost the prof back up

might be able to put some of that 7 points of melee defense to good use.

I kinda like the idea of fame., even if it is just NPCs whispering as you go by "Ohh look isn't that <insert you name here>!"
For insperations I agree having to be ATK to dispense them would be great however I do not want a minimum charge I want to be able to give my services away or not as I choose to.

I do agree, I can see the minimum charge becoming a problem, there is a chance that it would become more common for Ents to charge if they had to be ATK so that may solve the problem I had in mind where most won't have a charge making it pointless for you to charge.

well you could have a pop up window like with ID that allows you to select which kind of buff to give, if we get new buffs and then a box for entering a min price or offered tip. Then it could just be zero, but with the selection process like crafting you could not AFK it. This might add an annoying step in the process though if you are trying to play with a band and someone wants a buff.
