Did I mention this is a great idea, I was also thinking maybe one of the "buffs" could be a bonus to hope but would only show up and stack with some other source of hope buff. So if you had been doing revelries and used say a +4 15min token the revelrie buff could add +1 and 5min to the token or in the case of a Captain pet hope buff it would add +1 to the pet hope buff for like 30min. Hey did I mention this is a great idea as it stands
Where did this guy come from?
And why is he not working at Tturbine?
I love the idea.
Someone said something about PM'in a dev, what about repoting this. Would that not do the job?
I love the idea.
A plea to the community and the devs:
Please do not let this suggestion get buried, it's just far to good. I don't expect it would be implemented as written, but the core concept is absolutely the best idea I've heard for LOTRO since STbeta.
Set this game apart from other MMO's even further devs! Take ideas like this to heart! :)
Yeah, for Events I can certainly see the Dev's allowing that at times.Quote:

One other thing that I thought of was that it would be nice that if a revelry bonus was on, your fellowship got a longer amount of time to complete their fellowship maneuver.
Possible. I would like to reserve such a buff for the more complex combos, but it would depend on how it balances out with our current Hope mechanics.Quote:

In any case, anyone know how to get the devs attention on this?
INCREDIBLY inventive idea!!!
Mucho Kudos!!
(IE. Turbine lookey lookey...)

They don't usually post on this board, really. They don't like to get everyone's hopes up unnecessarily. But I'm assuming at least one of them will see the idea eventually and perhaps voice a comment or two about it at the water cooler or while sketching on a napkin or something....maybe.
But it's gotta be on-topic... for example, let's discuss how in campsite Merriment, the Fishing maneuver adds a combat boost that debuffs the balrogs dreaded wingflap attack... :)Quote:

Simply the greatest and most well thought out suggestion I've ever seen. I think this would be a great addition to the game. All suggestions on the forum should be like this.
The devs would have a helluva time keeping up with the suggestions if that was the case.Quote:

I sincerely hope the dev will look into this
I just noticed this morning that the thread as some shiny stars! :eek:Quote:

Hey, I helped with the stars! XD
Seriously, this post is the most well thought out idea I've ever seen, heard, read, or read about. Why aren't you working for turbine? I was convinced halfway through the post that a dev had accidentally posted a system to come out with the next patch. Absolutely astounding.

/astounded
/amazed
/blacking out
When I first read it I had to go check who the poster was half way through cause I though it was an announcement of something already implemented. I would be nice for a dev to jump in here and at least say, 'I have read this thread' so I dont have to worry about it being ignored. And yes . . . I'm worried, I really want this in LOTRO!
If this doesn't get implemented in Book 11 or at least 12, I will cry. Yes cry in real life. And I'll post a picture of me crying on the forums.
Thanks guys, but I can't claim all credit for how it looks. I used the beginning of Turbine's Maneuvers overview as a template and expanded the format from there to illustrate my ideas.
Even if they did like this concept, I doubt it could be ready by even Book 12. They'd have to debate its impact, design the system, balance the numbers, create the artwork, generate appropriate effects, attach sounds, and all that.
Wow! I think this is an amazing concept and great idea to add to the game. This would be a nice break from trying to level to 50, and, every once in a while, just strolling around on my horse looking at scenary or attending a party. I would love to go into a Tavern, and get into a bar fight over some spilt Ale.
Truthfully, I think this is probably the best idea I've ever seen. Great job on how much work you put into it. I really hope this, or something like this but with the same basic priorities, is added.
It looks really good, but I do have one SLIGHT suggestion... why would fighting give agility (especially drunk fighting), and dancing Vit, and feasting might? Dancing should give AGI, feasting VIT, and brawling Might...
Just my two cents worth.
I don't care if this takes a year to implement- I still think it's freaking brilliant. It uses a concept that is already ingame (Fellowship Manuveurs) and makes them really interesting and heck, fitting to the lore.
this is one of the best ideas ive seen so far you sjhould work for turbine very deatailed also /signed
Dude, you are amazing.. has Turbine called you yet?
My only 2 cents is to add drinking games, and thats just b/c I saw beerfest..
Or make the drinking games a separate system.. like an in-game beer pong / cards, not sure how to make it 'lore-feasible' though. But we could totally worry about that later!!!
I'm subscribing to this thread.. and it keeping it alive forever!
You are the farking MAN!
PS I like to fish with the winged Balrogs!
There is No way I am letting this post fade away. The work Hayoo put into this, on top of the brilliant Idea itself... I want to see justice done to this thread, and if I have to fish with Winged Balrogs to get that to happen, So be it.
I agree they should put this in to give true use to drinks and pipeweed.
Man this is a great idea
Awesome.
