A small change to careers... - TheMace - 2008.Oct.08 11:52 AM

...that could make a big difference.

Here are our current career conversion rates:

Career Str Dex Acc Res Int End Rep WE

Athletics 2.00 1.80 1.80 1.20 0.02 0.09 0.01 0.60

Construction 4.00 1.00 1.60 1.05 0.03 0.04 0.01 1.10

Engineering 1.00 1.00 4.00 0.90 0.09 0.03 0.01 0.08

Manufacturing 1.00 1.40 1.60 0.75 0.06 0.05 0.01 2.00

Martial Arts 1.40 4.00 2.00 1.35 0.03 0.04 0.01 0.50

Medical 0.80 0.80 1.80 0.45 0.15 0.03 0.02 0.70

Military 2.00 1.40 2.00 2.25 0.03 0.04 0.01 0.70

Politics 0.60 1.80 2.00 0.60 0.06 0.04 0.04 0.70

Science 0.60 1.00 1.60 0.45 0.16 0.03 0.02 0.70


What I am proposing is a small addition of 0.1 to one aspect of each of the careers.
The new careers would then look like this:

Career Str Dex Acc Res Int End Rep WE

Athletics 2.00 1.80 1.80 1.20 0.02 0.19 0.01 0.60

Construction 4.10 1.00 1.60 1.05 0.03 0.04 0.01 1.10

Engineering 1.00 1.00 4.10 0.90 0.09 0.03 0.01 0.08

Manufacturing 1.00 1.40 1.60 0.75 0.06 0.05 0.01 2.10

Martial Arts 1.40 4.10 2.00 1.35 0.03 0.04 0.01 0.50

Medical 0.80 0.80 1.80 0.45 0.25 0.03 0.02 0.70

Military 2.00 1.40 2.00 2.35 0.03 0.04 0.01 0.70

Politics 0.60 1.80 2.00 0.60 0.06 0.04 0.14 0.70

Science 0.60 1.00 1.60 0.45 0.16 0.13 0.02 0.70


This small change would be easy for Zen to code, and not give anyone anything for free as you would still have to work to achieve your goals, but it reduces the time taken for certain goals by half, while still being beneficial to those in other careers with different goals.

Good concept!

Work stats get +0.1 while the Battle stats should get at least +0.5



On the Zen's defense, she have already given us extra bonus in Career Point gain in the weekend.

i like the idea, although i think .1 is a bit too much. maybe a .02 increase for the work stats, and a .2 increase for the battle stats, if anything at all. increasing politics from .04 rep to .14 rep is NOT gona happen, but maybe .04 to .06... possible. maybe?

If these changes were to be made, would they be retroactive for those who used points so far?

It's always a matter of being fair to everyone after all :wink:


- abysmalpoptart - 2008.Oct.08 01:42 PM

my guess is they would NOT be retroactive, as that would probably take a lot more coding and time and effort. i wouldnt mind if it were retroactive tho, assuming anything of the sort actually did happen Wink


- Shotokan - 2008.Oct.08 01:43 PM

as for being fair to everyone, it would all change at the same time so that would be fair imo. but . . . who asked me.

beeing fair to everyone dosn't mean to stop progress

I asked, and I agree with said comment.


- alinutza - 2008.Oct.08 02:09 PM

not all of us were here when crime payouts were higher than now. should we get something in exchange for that too?!

IMO, IF the change is made, than a date should be announced and move on

Alinutza, where you come from, havn't seen you in here for a while. Twisted
