Archived Free Trait Changing In Regalia

[soapboxstage]

I honestly don't know why we don't have free trait changing in regalia. It's not like we have PvP in regalia so, why can't we change traits. This would make changing characters a lot easier and making traits easily accessible it would be easier to go from survival to rp. I remember at the fort coen raid (think that was the name) there was this guy with harmwater on as it was snowing and he simply just sat through the annoyance of taking a heart every second due to the time it would take to change traits and not want to miss the event. Even if you wait through the time it is having to stay still or tping away from the rp to the PvP arena to change traits. So my request is that we make regalia a safe zone like the PvP arena tp to make traits easier for roleplay in regalia.

I wouldn't be opposed to this.

i remember something like this being brought up a while back.

it was shot down because it would be easily abusable, just popping into regalia and ducking out just to change some traits, and that making it an area like the PvP arena where traits are separate from the survival worlds just wasn't possible.

i dont know if that still applies tho because times be changing and whatnot

the PvP arena where traits are separate from the survival worlds

traits still are transferable between PvP and the rest of the server, but it's without a cooldown.

Not to mention traits deactivate during pvp now, so there's no real downside to swapping traits, since you can't use them anyways.

This point really isnt.. an issue BECAUSE there is no trait change cooldown ALREADY at /tp pvp and it takes just as much effort to get there as it does Regalia... So the argument that it can be abused is invalid since it would already be abused now as we speak, due to /tp pvp



I mean this idea sounds simple enough to implement and i honestly cant see how it would make anybody upset so, im all for it.

Helps a lot if you have maiar too, and chars that need certain traits like slow or jump or speed etc.

Also if abuse is an issue, is it possible to have a Regalian trait set and a Survival trait set that switches from world to world?

It would much more difficult likely with the game staff's limited time but it won't really be too neccesssary because it takes the same amount of time to tp to regalia than to tp pvp.

I doubt it would be easily abused. If you want to change traits but your on the PVP cooldown you would have to /tp regalia which takes 10 seconds. Stand still for 25 second, Change the traits. Tp back (assuming you can) which is another 10 seconds.... You can see the point. In the end, you would change traits roughly.... 10-20 seconds sooner than you would have normally, IF your lucky and a fast af typer. And its a ton of effort.

So yea, Im 100% in favor of this, would make swapping stuff for RP a lot easier.

Honestly if you were to need to change traits in regalia such as giving jump boost to get to a certain area that YOUR CHARACTER WOULD BE ABLE TO DO but you are stopped by the PHYSICAL LIMITATIONS I think changing in regalia is fine. On that scenario as well it would be terrible to mark down coordinates, tp to pvp world, change traits, tp back to regalia, go find the spot you were at, then continue... Its impractical. Plus it could also be imputed pretty easily to allow for an infinite amount of trait points in regalia, as the traits don't affect much besides making a character more believable. This sounds like a good idea to me
