Like my trap crafting system which is in now?

Or the XP for disarming traps?
LIghten up, Francis! Touch my stuff -again- I kill you. :D

(At least two people that frequent these boards will get the reference.)

And the XP for disarming traps is very cool, but when Murgen comes upon a trap he now must stop and ponder:

To disarm or recover that is the question
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to pocket
The ropes and gears of outrageous design,
Or remove them as sharks netted from a sea of troubles,
And by removingm end them.

JMecha and WW, you guys can make yourself useful carrying Alora's palanquin. :)

The height difference might make for a lopsided ride, but Korsan is willing.

Nah, we'll just give the dwarf a longer pole.

Murgen already has that.

But can said pole hold up my palanquin?

Ultimately I want to do one better of having sword and armor crafting available, where you can gamble your weapon to potentially improve it.
There's a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run through in the night
Relax child, you were there
But only didn't realize and you were scared
It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind

Nice! Although, does this mean I should be taking points in craft armor and weapon????

I am reminded of a story about a toon named Jackman that invested lots and lots of skill points into swim even though there was no swimming system.

I'm also reminded of a story about a certain hin that had a lot of points in pickpocket, but that's a story for another day.

And the one quest that utilizes the PP skill gives zero xp. :wtg:

Pickpocket is hard. :(

And that ended up alright. Many thanks Ayergo.
