Subject More Skills/Ideas for New Players
Perhaps we could implement some kind of system where new players can experience their higher level skills early on, temporarily, when first starting out. This can use a new form of resource, or perhaps gold or maybe even utilize your field experience. Obviously it needs to be some thing and at some amount that a fresh off the boat player can afford. If it's gold and you're in a clan a buddy or new member can get hooked up quite extravagantly. Or just let new Remort 0 chars live a little. Allow them to rent a few high level skills, keep them at 75% for a few levels, and then turn them in to try out some other ones. This also lets people test a skill before they dump their real pracs and trains into it without actually knowing if they should have or wanted to. Perhaps the gold can come in with counteracting some late fees if you want to hang on to rented skills a little longer than allotted. "This rental spell has expired, please turn it in soon or pay the 300 gold fee." After you remort once, this feature either disappears entirely or at half or a quarter effectiveness. Lasting no longer than 1-2 remorts.
