more stats for labor intensive tasks

Post by ricky »

So, inspired from the new swimming stat, I think we should get more "working" stats.

some ideas include:
Harvesting, which provides a bonus to harvesting speed relevant items include farmer's clothes + straw hat. maybe the scythe
Woodcutting, which provides stamina reduction when woodcutting/sawing/chopping relevant items include woodsman tunic + axes.
Fishing, which could affect fishing speed. relevant items include fishing poles.
mining, which provides stamina reduction when mining. lots of relevant items.

there are probably quite a few activities which could recieve its own stat, similar to how swimming works.
Have a question? Need help? Tired of people asking questions? Haven and Hearth Wiki.

+1 would be great to have thing that make doing labour/energy intensive activities with non dedicated alts less of a bad idea

I tend to think that something like chopping a tree should be affected by a combination of str and con.

More "virtual stats" could certainly be useful.
