Gardeners Ideas
Posted: 06 Jun 2017 16:28
Hi everyone! So today I started brainstorming an idea that popped into my head for the Gardeners' guild with some other players. I think that we came up with some pretty cool ideas. Here is a log of the conversation (Zugzug's protests have been included as he requested):

I think it would be cool for gardeners to be able to have like, their own garden plots or something.
Zugzug - Today at 9:45 AM
and you can plant anything there? i think that would sort of kill the point of searching for herbs
Emmiline - Today at 9:45 AM
No not anything
It could be an add-on. Hear me out real quick.
You go herbing, and from every couple of herbs or something like that, you get a seed.
But you have to have the herb identified, and you have to herb the plant in order to get the seed. You can't buy it in a store because they're dried/already harvested by the herbalist(edited)
Then you use the seeds to plant a plant. You get a few of that herb from the plant but can only harvest the plant once.
Emmiline - Today at 9:48 AM
Don't you think that'd be cool though? I think it'd be a nice addition. Especially for those who want to play a merchant type character.

I do agree
I see no harm in it
Emmiline - Today at 9:49 AM
Think I should make the suggestion?
Dravian - Today at 9:49 AM
It would bring new emphasis to tading skills, item identifying and such.
Zugzug - Today at 9:49 AM
but where do you grow it?
Emmiline - Today at 9:49 AM
@Dravian Exactly.
Zugzug - Today at 9:49 AM
carry the pot with you all the time?
Dravian - Today at 9:49 AM
Hunter occupational...
Emmiline - Today at 9:49 AM
@Zugzug I'd say that maybe a few rooms could be added around the gardener guild maybe?
Dravian - Today at 9:49 AM
tracking and such.
Emmiline - Today at 9:49 AM
And when you look at the room it'll be like

One of the few events I liked over the years, was the guild tree one
Emmiline - Today at 9:50 AM
"In this room you see your garden"
Zugzug - Today at 9:50 AM
@Emmiline But what's going to stop a big bad old Angmar from coming in a collecting herbs from your plants?
Emmiline - Today at 9:50 AM
@Dravian I think that'd tie in really well.

A big bad old angmar? We have one of those???
Zugzug - Today at 9:50 AM
i mean people would just hang around there and collect all your herbs
Zugzug - Today at 9:50 AM
then smash your pots with his club and laugh
Emmiline - Today at 9:51 AM
@Zugzug The wizards would code it so that you can only <harvest [herb] from my garden>
Zugzug - Today at 9:51 AM
bah, but that's a cheap workaround trick
Avatar (Old Evil) - Today at 9:51 AM
Code a room, where only a specific person can enter. Once you rent the room, you get a key and can enter it. It will then create an instance, just folr you
Emmiline - Today at 9:51 AM
That would also work. It could be that you're renting a greenhouse maybe?
Zugzug - Today at 9:51 AM
i mean, it would work, but what about thieves who want to steal your stuff? why u never think of me?
Avatar (Old Evil) - Today at 9:52 AM
an instanced greenhouse. Yes
Emmiline - Today at 9:52 AM
I like it!
Zugzug - Today at 9:52 AM
don't think it will ever happen. too easy to abuse?
Emmiline - Today at 9:52 AM
@Zugzug Your time will come, when the herbs are in unprotected herb jar.
Zugzug - Today at 9:52 AM
and it's not fair to non-gardeners who want to grief you or steal from you
Emmiline - Today at 9:52 AM
Maybe each greenhouse can only have a certain number of herb plants in it?
According to when I <list guilds>, Ckrik is the guildmaster for the gardeners and therefore would most likely be the one to code this I'm assuming. However, to all wizards I ask, is something like this feasible, and something that you'd consider adding to Genesis?
Also, any additional ideas from both wizards and players are more than welcome. I personally believe that this would add a lot of positive possibilities to the game.
