My idea is simple - to make an for any player a apprentice(not a real player).
It would work like that:
- any one that what him/her must have at least level 3 (maybe 5) and a lvl5 or higher workshop and lab (to suport living of this person)
- apprentice in general will earn money (coins) - first at the bigging of each day he'll take some (his living costs) and after 8 or 12 hours will bring a bit more than he took (whole thing dependable of his/her lvl, which will grow mostly with time)
- having a apprentice will shorten regeneration of motivation to one third (one point after 5 min. not after 15) but operating a each golem will be 2 or 3 points higher.
What do You think about it?
any new ideas welcome |

I don't agree with the motivation regeneration rate increase with them.
There's already enough people complaining about me attacking them as it is that i might actually have to write a guide on how not to get attacked by me. Give me more motivation and a lot of people are gonna quit. |

| Actually, Poseidon has always been really polite about attacks. He has always offered to replace any losses I incur and has always used a fleshie so far, as it gives him increased xp. Not to mention minimizing my damage. |

I don't mind being attack (by the same level golem) so his attack even was useful (+5 exp:P) but there are some ppl that have only a goal in crushing others golems...
I left my flesh as usual but that presistent Biliboy simply plained to crash it (gaing less exp that with equal fight) with three attacks in a row, that makes my consider using anything stronger to crash his bone golem for good :/ on the other hand I don't want to be on his low-level... some ppl can simply spoil the fun...
let's get back to the topic - how would You improve that apprentice idea? |

i would say maybe just let them earn money over time and maybe decrease the times of buildings and items by a few percents for every level the apprentice is.
possibly even allow them to gather secondary resources as well. but the motivation regen is a no no. |

Yeah, motivation regen would be pretty bad... But maybe if you could send the apprentice off with the golem instead of you. ^^
Of course, he's just an apprentice, so you'll be lucky to get it back in one piece, but at least it didn't cost you and motivation. ^_^ Ah, and then he would get the XP instead of you, so it wouldn't even help you that much, except for crashing other workshops, and picking up a bit of loot.
Of course, this whole feature departs a lot from the game as it is. It would be interesting, but it's kinda like saying "Hey wouldn't it be nice if this game were completely different?"
*shrug* Maybe that's just me. :P
P.S. Apprentice = Trouble
Remember what happened with Mickey? |

I think I have to agree with the thought of leaving them out.
From a RP perspective, you kind of already have apprentices. While you may not see the benefit, that's probably where level 1's come from story wise. |

Yeah. They are also probably the ones (along with the golems) that construct your buildings, keep things clean, and do other mundane chores. |
