OK how about some advanced techniques/positions? After Tensai and Defender of the Wall... I have suggestions for Crane Kenshinzen and Dragon Swordmasters: Desolate Hut (Req: Kenjutsu 50, somewhere in dragon moutains) * Fasting (meditation action) Drops "patience", Plum as mastery drop (just like Togashi). Plum could be symbol boosting meditation and/or honor. And since it's about both meditation and stamina, token could be earth. * Study Shinsei's words (lore action) "Neither will I" - Shinsei to TogashiDrops haiku perhaps? As for mastery... Tao of shinsei, or Glimpse of understanding? * Five positions - Three Alternatives (kenjutsu action) Drops katana, daisho at random Drops "To Know" as mastery To Know (soul, boosting intimidation and courage) I Knew I could win" - Hojatsu* Find your way (kenjutsu) Swordmasters are pragmatic, each finds his own truth behind Niten Req: "To Know", Kenjutsu 50 Cost: 25 fate, patiecne Mastery drop would be of course Swordmaster position boosing Kenjutsu and... battle? ----- Inner Dojo (Req: Iaijutsu 50, enter "In" from Duelling Academy) * Perfect your technique (Athletics action) Repetition of endless kata Drops Perfect Posture as mastery drop * Riddle Of Steel (Investigation? Lore? In RPG it would be focus or awareness related) "Men will lie to you. Your eyes will deceive you. Steel never lies, nor deceives, not hides bitter reality. In the sword, you can find truth." - Sword, KakitaDrops "Riddle Of Steel" * A Single Moment (Iaijutsu action) "Focus upon your opponent's destiny. Bring it to them on the end of one perfect cut."*Duel Kenshinzen (one time action) Req: Perfect Posture, Riddle Of Steel, Iaijutsu 100 Cost: 100 fate (duel with extremally long focus ^_^), 3 Crane Favors Gives: Kenshinzen (Position, boosts Iaijutsu, Athletics and glory) PS. "patience of course could be found in other actions and used in other ones (most trivial would be obnoxious bore - btw I didn't get that one in ages). EDIT: Hah, so nice to get this post as first on new page Anyway I hope you like this ideas.

That led me to a follow up thought: Prestige classes. When certain criteria are met, people can elect to take a whole new advanced class that allows for more liberal use of skill points! Criteria can be anywhere from skill minimum, total glory, fate, dynasty, champion boards, etc etc. Elite positions and training regimens for people with 100 levels, or ascension and enlightenment for people with ridiculous fate! I'm not saying all of my criteria be used (I know some people may not like the idea of dynasty or glory ranking being a criteria, but I am still trying to find ways to reward players who have been in the game and been with it for a very long time )

Item Wish:
Can we PLEASE get more ways to get Bloodspeaker tools? I need far too many more and have max mastery on all the jobs that "give" bloodspeaker tools.
Feature Wish: I was wondering how hard it would be to allow people to make notes in game and save them? Right now, I'm working on something that requries LOTS of things. I have to go here and there to get items, to go somewhere else to turn in those items, so that I can get another item to perform a job. being able to make in game notes would allow me to keep track of how I'm doing and what / where I need to go next.

(I'm Top 10 on all the elements for spider, and working my way up!)

A couple of new suggestions that I had to further expound upon a great feature.
1.) Allow the Inventory page to tell us which set we are wearing. (You have set #X equipped)
2.) Once this is implemented, I would love a way to rename sets. Instead of Set #1, It's (Shugenja), #2 is Battle, #3 is Courter, and so on and so forth so that I can remember which set is which. Not a big deal until you end up with 11 or 12 sets saved and you are trying to remember which set is which...

Wishlist big for me, but not sure it's possible; is there any way to save a memory of what page we're on? Or at least make the "Again" button have longer memory if nothing else? Currently if you do a job on page 3 of a location, it'll tell you you succeeded and kick you back to page one. That's not a big deal for doing jobs because the "Again" button follows you of course. But there are lots of cases it's proven to be a pain;
1) When you on an item link to check an item, when you with the "Back" link, you always end up on page one. 2) Leaving the site or page for any length of time, such as clicking on the link to the forums here then going back through the link here, you always end up on page one. 3) Refreshing the page at all sticks you on page one without an "Again" button to help. So clicking "Actions" to update how much Fate you have for instance wipes the "Again" button's memory. 4) Doing any sort of side mission creates a different "Again" button of course, whether that be taking advantage of a Heroic Opportunity that you get or because of a Random Encounter. This is one case where I'm not sure how you'd do it.
Anyways, not sure if it's a big deal in the end or if anyone else minds it. But, especially when I'm not on my computer and on something like a netbook or phone, I find it would be nice if the pages had... well a longer memory I guess. Especially numbers 1 and 3 from above with refreshing to check your Fate or clicking a link to see how many of an item you have; especially in those cases it would be really cool if the game kept on the same wavelength you were on before job and page-wise.

Can we get another heavy cavalry mastery drop somewheres? I understand wanting it to be hard to get, and think that thats very cool. I'm just bummed that I failed the cavalry charge and lost my only heavy cavalry at 66% complete on that cavalry charge. If not I completely understand though!

I have another wish:
IC, Utaku Haruka and Bayushi Senshi are getting married. Can we have an option where one can change clans? quests perhaps? or could we petition to have characters change families?
(eagerly hopes for a Bayushi Haruka)

The game sure could use another story quest or a tournament type event right about now. It's getting a little monotonous.

Some quick thoughts: Advanced schools/Prestige classes: Neat idea, but will take some work. It would probably be easier to implement it the way Shinji suggested (some new jobs with position item drops), but would probably be cooler to do what Senshi suggested (change to a different school entirely - but would require new game mechanics). I'll definitely think about it, but can't promise when it can happen. Bloodspeaker tools: Will see if something can be done. *shifty eyes* In-game notes: I can see how this might be handy, but I'm not sure I can keep a lot of file storage for every player to record extensive notes in. So, kinda doubtful I can do that. Outfit refinements: Would be a nice-to-have, but I think it might be lower priority. Remember which action page you're on: Sounds like a good quality-of-life suggestion, will see what I can do. Something to kill off medium infantry: Probably doable. Heavy cavalry drops: There will eventually be more. Marriage: I want to implement something for marriage in-game, but it requires some infrastructure support before it is possible. For example, the game currently doesn't track the gender of your character, but this would be important for marriage. I hope to gradually work towards this direction, however. More stories and tournaments: Yeah, I agree, we need some more stuff like this. Will see what I can do.

Originally put this in "Your Question, Our answer" but I think it goes here.
Jay-sama, I'm curious... Are you ever going to look at incorporating Ring score or classes into action requirements? It would be neat if some of the "study magic" items are limited to true shugenja only and that they need to have a certain ring level to complete. (Realistically the ring requirements should be increase between mastery ranks, indictating an increase of difficulty, but that would probably be too big a pain to do.)
Also, an idea for a major reward for a special storyline quest (once we're past the Yobanjin War) how about giving a soul item "Touched by the Spirit Realms (Yume-do)"? In the tabletop game this regenerates void in half the normal time, so for us I could see it giving +25 Spellcraft, +25 Lore and either have it make Fate points regenerate at twice the normal rate (so 2 per minute instead of 1)/increase max Fate by character level while the soul is equipped.
To keep it from overwhelming the servers, maybe have it be limited access (like the Miya Steed, the Jade Bow and the other rewards for the top 10 in the Winter Court competitions.) And for sake of fairness (so it's not just us uber-players getting it) if it was like the Topaz Championship where there you had to be between certain levels to participate in tier. Have one for the beginners, one for the mids and one for the high level players.

Like the soul idea, except the fate replenish being doubled due to an item. I could see something increasing your fate max perhaps. And thanks Jay-sama for giving feedback on some of the recent suggestions!

Would it be possible to have some new actions to get IRON? It takes so much of it everywhere! I know there is the corrupt mines that are new but for the few "Jedi" of us :-)
