Druidic Rite for farming is worthless.

Post by CaptainMidget »

Druidic Rite for farming is absolutely fucking useless. All it does it give you an extra seed to make it 15 seeds and a guaranteed third crop from crops that don't give seeds.

By the time you save up the LP to buy Druidic Rite, you are more then setup with enough crops and seeds to make the extra 1 seed and guaranteed extra crop negligible.

Can we please change it so it gives us a better chance at getting positive quality values on our crops? I've test planted my Onions 12 times, Once in each corner of the village and the greatest outcome I got was +2 vit. 5 hours and 5 minutes later.. test planted again, greatest outcome was +1vit. 5 hours later, again, test plated and +1 vit.

There seems to be a certain distance required from an initial plant to get a different result in quality, which was met.

So, can we please change Druidic Rite to let us have a higher chance at getting positive qualities?

Discuss.

I personally wouldn't mind them adding a new skill past Druidic Rite, one that costs 500k LP or 1000k LP that gives us an extra +2 to the original -2 +5 scheme. Thus, giving us more quality options when farming and a higher chance at getting a positive quality. -2 +7.

One of our farmers who has one field of carrots is constantly getting like 5 different q changes even though he mass plants them all together? This shit makes no sense to me everyone i go everyone's complaining they cant get enough changes and in my village everyone's complaining they are getting too many :x

I wouldn't mind some new super expensive skills. It would be good to have to invest millions of LP for specific benefits.

I want my reliable seeds. If you want a new skill ask for that.

Either hes planting in a super-long row or hes got multiple qualities of said crop before he plants.

It still shouldn't happen like that.

The intention was to make it very marginal, i.e. not strictly needed.

Whats your thought on having a rather expensive skill Jorb that adds a +2 modifier to the original -2, +5 for farming? So it'd be -2, +7 giving us a higher chance at better qualities.

Not sure. Kind of generally deliberating on how farming qualities should work.
