    How could we improve current jobs!?

    Hi there.
    This thread idea has spun from another thread, detailing how we could improve on the flower picking jobs with bouquets ect.

    Do you have any other realistic ideas we could use to help improve how our current jobs play or make them more exciting?
    Mainly aimed at the boring picking jobs (litter/trash,mushrooming,even possibly mining ect) but all ideas are welcome!

    Buff drop rates for body parts
    Speed up minimum time to drill rocks
    Figure out a way to let everyone have a pizza making spot all to themselves so I can stop dealing with reports saying someone had their pizza stolen
    Maybe buff trash prices

    Perhaps for trash picking, there could be rare types of trash that are worth like $20.
    Also maybe there could be disguise baddie trash pieces B) This would be where if you poke a piece of trash and it is a baddie in disguise, when you kill it, it drops 3 of that trash item.

    A hot pink drill that is shiny and can be purchased at the mining man where the other drill and batteries are. Pink is so pretty and if there was a pink shiny drill I'd be so much happier to mine. Maybe that wouldn't happen, though, since there is a pink m4 and other fancy guns that are much more expensive than a drill! And no one would want to make a pink drill, but I will still post this so you know my graal wish for mining. Please, I love the colour pink...

    Oh, and I know this will more than likely never happen because it won't be seen as useful, or it is impossible to do beacaue it's not scripted or something! <WHY :'( I wish you had made a pink drill because in real life there is a pink drill. Not a mining drill, but still.. So, yes. I know this will just be a useless idea, but this took me about 10-15 minutes to type out so I hope it's at least read.. ;(

    Increasing the income doesn't make the job any less boring.

    I'm trying to think of something for the collection jobs, but, nothing is clicking yet. My goal is to increase replayability by making each job a little more random somehow.

    We kinda need ideas that will make them more fun and more rewarding.
    We don't want to hear, buff this, increase that. They get that all the time.



    But anyways:

    Mining:

    (Since somebody might say this, I rather as well say it now)
    Crafting items with minerals, or creating new items with minerals.

    And being able to buy a charger for your battery would be great.
    Probably around 500g, and then you can charge your battery for the drill for free.
    (Then no more batteries for a bit, but you'll have to wait a bit for your battery to charge.)
    Also, to make it a bit balanced, the battery completely dies after three charges, so then you gotta buy a new one.


    Digging:

    Treasure Chest idea:

    Give the chance to find treasure chest in the sands of Graal.
    Inside could be pearls, gold, silver, copper, and other riches!
    But chances of finding treasure is very rare! Once you hit it, you'll hear a metal sound, and your game will ask if you'd like to dig it up.
    By pressing yes, about five crabs appear with the chest. Kill the crabs, and receive your chest. (or you can lure the crabs to somebody else.)
    The chest will remain there for you to grab it, and you only, for about three-five minutes.

    And just because it'll be funny, there's a chance (VERY low chance) that the chest holds absolutely nothing but air!
    This will get players soooo mad. Lol!



    Shrooming:

    Not really necessary, but fake mushroom creatures can be added.
    You will go up and try picking it, but the first hit makes the mushroom creature pop up and attack you.
    Maybe adding a reward for killing it will be nice?

    Probably a low chance of it dropping it's fake mushroom, which cost like 1kg.




    Trash picking:

    Nothing much I can think of here but to add a bit more trash, with a little buff in spawn rate.

    Example:

    Soda cans- 3g
    Plastic bags- 4g (these can float through Era)
    Chip bag- 3g (also floats)






    That's it for my ideas!
    Hope you guys like them and can agree with these ideas.

    An idea I presented over RC, that I don't think Vendhin caught, would be taking items you get from jobs (flowers, minerals, etc.) and crafting them into more valuable things to be sold. Perhaps you could also allow furniture or other items be crafted in this manner.

    Sad that Vendhin gives us the chance to express our ideas for the jobs.
    We shouldn't even have this opportunity, but he's giving us a chance.

    But right now, all i'm seeing is, "Oh buff this, increase that."
    And now you're saying make it worth your time? Maybe make it worth OUR time by contributing to this thread with some ideas, other than simply saying what you did.
