This discussion always evolves into something overly complicated or unbalanced.

Give me 8 reasonable graduate-level courses with their benefits. Let's make this a community project, and see if there can be a general consensus over this topic.

Requirements :
  • These courses cannot be taken unless all other courses in the original school code are completed.
  • Time should not just automatically count down like the original school code. You need to be active.
  • Limit bonuses to dev points only.
  • Just because these are "graduate level" doesn't mean the bonuses should be out of control. Keep the bonuses to respectable levels.

I personally don't think just finishing the original school courses should be enough to get you in. I think there should be more restrictions on these, such as a minimum intelligence / reputation requirement.

Let's see where this topic leads.

I like the idea of the carreer requirements. but maybe also a number of days the person must be currently active in that carreer and maintain that carreer while the class is ongoing. Kind of like an apprenticeship?

Intell or dex might also be a factor depeding on the type of class or other attributes. You definitely dont want to make it a walk in the park like the basic classes.

Maybe make a randomizer determined by a skill level or intel leve that would determine the % of completion of the class rather than saying it takes so many days. Kind of like the skills.

So, taking into account all of the stated requirements, why not set up the higher level classes similar to the way skills are set up.

You not only have to log in everyday, but, you also have to "study" say 4 times a day. It could cost energy or AP.

The classes should enhance the already focused on stat growth of the career chosen.

i think we should knock the rep to lvl 2 and the intelligence to 7(for the non-donators)
that way ther will be no discutions imo
