Legends of Equestria Discussion / Talent skill tree needs a rework - urgently
2021 Mar 11, 18:35:38
Hi.
All skills of a talent tree need to be unlockable with a decent price or requirement. The price of expert and master skills is insane and adding foal quests doesn't help if you're already a full grown pony.
If you are a veteran and come back after a very long time, you wonder why some skills you probably don't want are maxed out while some others you want to get by the love of Princess Celestia are locked expert skills and you know you had them purchased in the past.
So you wonder what in the world is going on. You want to do new foal quests as full grown pony, you want to reset your skill tree and get points back and most importantly, you want to get all available skills of the talents you have, all maxed out at level 45 - 50.
Back in my days, it was possible to have all skills and 1 skill per talent couldn't be maxed out due to a "few" missing TP. But now you need level 50 and at least 1000 TP extra to get every skill unlocked and maxed out. Having all skills unlocked is awesome because you already belong to a race and that race is already a restriction. As a unicorn, I do not care about the flying talent. But for my goodness, I want to have all the skills of my magic talent as the unicorn I am. And I want to have all of them maxed out.
A temporary solution for that until it's reworked, perfectly balanced and most optimized:
Simply reward the player with 250 TP every 10 levels on their talent, not just 20.
And for consideration when reworking features:
A lot of very questionable decisions have been made. The quality of a game is extremely important and I do not care about more content. The content we already have must be intelligent and friendly, equal to everypony.
It is extremely important to not rebalance players by soft-resetting their levels and such. A player possibly worked hard for something, may it be farming or science. And they would never ever see their level drop by 1, no matter how well explained that all is. Instead, a higher maximum has to be set to keep the player calm. Or don't make changes on that because the real problem lies elsewhere.
It doesn't take more than 7 days to take care of that mess but I'm not pushing. The game has insane potential, servers should be full all day, but where are all the players? Where is the success? If there is no success, something must have been made wrong. And acknowledging it is the first step to rescue a game.
