Ivorak Posted October 21, 2013 Report Posted October 21, 2013 It has been two weeks since the volition skill was announced. Mur would like to know how much of the skill you've built up in that time. Whoever sees this post is asked to reply with your active days, total volition, and whether or not you've tried increase/grind the skill (yes or no). This will help determine how many points are required for item creation, a related feature to be implemented in the future. I'll start: AD: 1864 Volition: 2.06 Grinding?: No Quote

Root Admin Muratus del Mur Posted October 22, 2013 Root Admin Report Posted October 22, 2013 This information is very valuable..it helps me understand the rate that volition will be aquired and by that i can adjust the requirements for the things that will be using it. I could have checked these values in the db, but the point is that i need data from that sort of people that bother writing here, wish to give feedback, get involved..for those i aim to fine-tune things..the others will just have to deal with whatever will be. Based on the provided data i believe a volition of about 5 would be normal for someone not interested much in it, a value of 20 will be enough for those trying a bit to get it and a value of 40 will be reserved for those that really want that increase. Of course all these values will fluctuate a lot based on the future use and purpose of volition...anyhow, this was an initial test and data is still very very valuable. Please keep posting Mods please close this topic in a day or two. There will be an other one later with a slight change (volition use presented will influence will to aquire volition..thats second part of the test) Thank you Quote
Root Admin Chewett Posted October 22, 2013 Root Admin Report Posted October 22, 2013 Based on the provided data i believe a volition of about 5 would be normal for someone not interested much in it, a value of 20 will be enough for those trying a bit to get it and a value of 40 will be reserved for those that really want that increase.Iv walked to GoE a couple times, and went to the shrine (its a +40 most days) and already have 3.something. Literally nothing else since this feature came out.Everyone will reach 5 within a really short period of time. 40 will also be reached pretty quickly. Quote
Syrian Posted October 22, 2013 Report Posted October 22, 2013 17.62 took the occasion walk around NC when i found myself inside, just to get a little more volition, soon got tired of it and stopped after a day or 2 Sy Quote

Burns Posted October 22, 2013 Report Posted October 22, 2013 AD: 1947 Volition: 2.58 That's from walking between GoE and Paper Cabin about once every 3 days, because that's all the time i have for role-playing right now :( Also, i'm beating Chewie when it comes to lazyness, now we have the proof :)) Quote
DarkRaptor Posted October 22, 2013 Report Posted October 22, 2013 AD: 1061 Volition: 96 I've been away for the last 8 days, but i've made most of the volition in 2 or 3 rounds around my homeland and by walking the Paper cabin - aramory path. Quote
Root Admin Chewett Posted October 22, 2013 Root Admin Report Posted October 22, 2013 (edited) MDP -> Willows Sanct gave me 0.3 volitionIv walked those scenes between 10 and 3k, lets assume that its 3kIf every scene i moved into, gave me volition, i would have 900 volitionAssuming that 10% of them gave me it, i would still have 90.Now scale that up to Archives (nearly always at 40 visc - given that a multiplier of 5 and walked a lot during GGG days)no mans land - given a multiplier of 1LR - 4 scale factor - walked a lotNC - 3 scale factor - walked a bitGG - 3 scale factor - walked a bit90 * (1 + 5 + 1 + 4 + 3 + 3) = 17 * 90 = 1530Now lets pretend i walked the lands evenly over my years1530 / 8 = 191And lets again assume i devide it equally to each month191 / 12 = ~16In two months, i reach your "reserved" value of those who really want to increase it? Thats silly.The only reason im not already on the 19 or so from the first month of it is because im not playing atm.In addition, this 16 fits well with most people who are actively playing MD, see above.------TOO LONG, DIDNT READ:40 is easily achievable without any form of grinding, just move around each day as the above people have shown you.

Change Posted October 22, 2013 Report Posted October 22, 2013 Change 5.08. No real sustained grinding, just running around randomly like I usually do (except now I have more motivation to). I've been too busy to run around lately, but when I'm less busy I'll be definitely having fun running around collecting heat and volition. Quote
