Bad Idea....IF...
Say like you have a Lv.50 or so char, and when you first started and reached say Lv.20 you got a bonus of like 1M.
Whats to stop players making multiple chars and getting each 1 to Lv.20 for 1M Cash (Obviously this is 1 example, but if you have such a feature ingame this could be used to attain the awards over and over with no work lol)
Not going to reply to that idea just yet. But one thing I will suggest is a group of 3+ members get a 1.2 exp boost or something. Something to make grouping more worthwhile than it currently is with our population. To avoid exploiting make it so members have to be within a certain range of eachother.
agree, please make tele lvling a thing of the past.. almost every server suffers from it, and in my book it's worse than afk lvling..
Tele leveling? You mean teleporting around a cave collecting mobs that also teleport and using a MT to level an alt char like on Mir3? lol
From what i gather Jamie can do whatever he likes lol, so he doesn't HAVE to give mobs the teleporting ability.
Anyway that's not what his idea was on about :P He means when you gain exp, you can set it to 20% to be sent to your other chars on your account (Whilst their offline) so they can gain levels (Granted, not as uch) while your playing 1 char and infact leveling 3 lol
Sorry, I'm not following you here.
I agree, and we are thinking of ways to make grouping more rewarding, ultimately undecided which option we will take yet.
Where did Teleport come into this lol?
Correct a Maximum of 20% can be shared to your other characters. Mob = 100EXP, Player get 80EXP 20EXP goes to other character.
Time for bed.
NN.
Ok....lol
Say like for example you have setup in your server a reward for reaching Lv.20
This reward could be anything but lets just say it's 1M Gold for now.
You get your first char to Lv.20 and collect the reward....you then make an alt char and use this function of yours to level it with...imagine if your main is Lv.50 the exp you would be gaining would easily get an alt to Lv.20 and another 1M Gold lol.
This could work for other rewards too such as maybe an Orb and use it on your main character, then delete this alt and make another....get another Orb, basically giving your main char a massive stat jump or something lol.
But you get what i mean right?
Just because you can gain exp with your level 50 does not necessarily mean that it would be faster, don't forget your only getting 1 fifth of the exp at best.
It if was faster I doubt it would be significantly different from normally levelling.

i just believe this is a server setting issue and can be avoided simply setting the files better.. even if it is coded this way you can bypass this issue by simply giving a less worth prize.. also if you have a main lvl 50 char i believe it would be easier getting 1M in drops than trying to level your alt chars all day

Can you also do store sharing per account? perhaps have i main store window for the char you are playing, and a smaller shared stores window that opens on all your accounts, so that you can move items across to your other charachters? To save the hassle of finding somewhere safe to drop/log off/log on/pick up items, or logging on multiple chars?
That's down to the server owner's descretion though...
Forgetting the fact that your level 50 is also getting EXP at the same time though...THAT'S the difference Sonic is talking about. Who'd want to run around in LightArmour killing skeletons when you can use your more fun high level char instead and effectively get the same results? Whether it was significantly quicker doesn't matter.
Arguable and down to the server specs, so you can't really say that.
Can you guys bare in mind, what i said was merely an example of what problems the idea could cause lol, there not actual functions that he's implemented.
Was just saying that if such functions existed, this idea of giving other chars 20% exp from your main could be a problem.
@Jamie
Need to imagine other server owners using these, and the amount of exp they could have in their server 20% could be alot....
It has a switch server side (on and off) and Max amount shared can also be changed.
Most things are not hard coded and are changeable without a reboot.
Your idea seems rather easily exploitable with a certain class, Wizards, Now give or take i don't know how long firewalls etc will last on your server Taoists may be chosen less due to this idea.
A warrior doesn't have the farming capabilities of a wizard in my personal opinion same as a Taoist. Wizards are well known for grouping up a large group of creatures and firewalling the room and getting mass experience from it whereas it takes a warrior and Taoist a lot longer.
While it's only a possibility it is one to think of, it would be giving the incentive to level X specific class to boost your other characters faster.

levelling a wizard to 50, then using it to lvl a warrior to 50 wouldnt pay off.
wizards level fastest on all servers, so its no different.
the replies on this topic are retarded. Hes coding files, and it can be turned on or off for each server.
unless im missing something?
/gw
The replies aren't retarded. Jamie asked for feedback on the idea and that's what people are doing - suggesting possible errors with the system.
Well in that case (Since you didn't mention this before lol)
It could be something you could implement and just let server owners decide if they use it or not, so i guess it's nice to have the choice depending on what ingame functions people will have.
That aside, got anything else to show off yet? :P Was having fun reading through and catching up 500 Posts on this and seeing the updates every few pages lol, now i got none left to look at ^_^

they are not possible errors though.
For example... giving 1m for reaching lvl 30? thats a server decision, nothing to do with coding 20% exp transfer.
The only 'bug' is you can level up noob faster, even then this can be ironed out by adding restrictions/more exp decay if ure a higher lvl than the mob.
its all just circumstancial rubbish.
Especially as u can turn it off.
rant over, think ,type, re-read the drivel uve written and log off in future. (not the person im quoting, the general morons)
