#60374, "RE: It's really not as bad as this is made out. Unless.."
Edited on Tue 18-Aug-15 04:06 AM

          

Wanderlust doesn't do that. You still need 75% wilds time to be "at home" and receive the benefits of "at home". Wanderlust raises the floor, not the roof. In other words, you suffer less for lots of civilized time, but believe me even "comfortable" is no picnic.

I know that, but what people are asking would essentially make one of the largest perks of explorer redundant. Where wanderlust is concerned running at 80% capacity* and being able to spend as much time as you like in any terrain isn't really a crap deal. It's just not the 100% in any terrain that some people would lobby for.

RE: selectively wilderness timer-ing subclasses, I just don't see the return on investment to code something like that? We want to avoid any more complexity in subclasses, ideally. Explaining wilderness time to new players gets complicated if you need a chart pointing out which subclasses need to adhere to it and which don't, in addition to skewing class balance, invalidating explorer etc. I'm personally for not turning the game into a complex simulator, although occasionally the burden of pointing out some of my ideas are overly complex falls on other people too.

*Disclaimer: arbitrary figure here, not specific game mechanics info.
