TOPIC | [Sug.] Fayd's Exaltation Overhaul
@Fayd @warriorjames
I really like this plan. I don't care if things slow down on the developer side if we can look forward to something new in our own lairs. Dominance has really lost it's appeal as well, because it doesn't really get me anything that I can't get on my own.
I am tired of dressing my dragons, and I only like to breed when a new gene comes out until I have what I want. The rest of breeding is kind of a chore.
I love my dragons, but I am growing a little bored. The only way to make any real treasure any more is to exalt, but the amount of treasure I make on exalting doesn't even come close to the amount I spend creating dragons. All I do now is feed them, get the new stuff, and familiar bond. Sometimes a new gene will come out, and I will get a breeding project going, but not often.
I would like to have some goals to work toward that would get me something in return. Not as a flight, but in my personal lair. I like the idea of being able to contact exalted dragons, and knowing that they are actually still out there doing something, even if it is just an occasional message from one of them.
I like the idea of having some goal to work toward that will allow me to see real changes in my lair- like extra lair space, or a special temple that I can decorate. I want to spend more time playing on the site, but I feel really limited right now. I loved the double time we got the weekend open registration came up. I leveled up all of my fodder, and even sent some out to storage.
I have maxed out my lair, and I don't want to create a bunch of pretty new rare dragons that I can sell for paltry sums compared to the amount of treasure & gems I spent getting them. I would rather exalt the ones I don't need, but again, I lose treasure doing so. I usually only breed other people's dragons in my nests, because the economy has nowhere to go.
I also think we need something else to do. Your plan will give us that, and help take the stigma out of exaltation. I would love to have a hall of heroes I can look back on, and I would love to get some of the benefits listed in the boon category.
A good limit for the Hall of Heroes would be to only allow dragons that hatched in your own lair, or that resided in your lair for a specified period (6 months?) allowed to join the hall of heroes. That way your personal commitment to your deity would be much higher.
That should have an effect on your personal gain as well. There are always those who work harder during dominance battles, and it would be nice if they personally benefited more for their extra commitment.
Please, give us more stuff to do with our dragons, and less items to cover them up.

SUPPORT! Exalting doesn't seem too viable other than for dominance purposes but this way, it could be made a lot better!
This is a beautiful idea that I find I have very few questions or concerns about. It would be a huge undertaking for the dev's but also a fantastic immersion into the world and really make flight choice more than just cosmetic, which is really all it is for me at least.
I do think, and there's a lot of pages here so it might have already been suggested, that in the flightwide quests a system of 'return on what you put in' would be necessary. Currently, everyone gets the dominance benefits if they get to the top of the leader board, regardless of participation. That is perfectly fine, no need to change, individuals get more for participation in the form of the exalting rewards, regardless of placements. But for Quests, where you're putting things in (which means you're not selling them or hoarding them for swip, etc) without reward I would think that when the flight quest/build. . . I just read it and already can't remember the name, so bear with me, please :). . . is completed, those who didn't put in at all are 'not recognized' by their deity and receive no gift bundle. Everyone who did put in gets one, but those who fullfilled their full allotment get more and those who did more, etc, balancing out and discouraging freeloaders while encouraging participation.
But to go back, this idea is really fantastic and with the new teased things coming out with the map and areas in flights, we're moving this direction perhaps and it's exciting :D

I will admit that I didn't read through all of the pages, so this question might have been asked, but what if a player is unable to fulfill every single requirement for the projects? Like if the player misses one or two? Would they still get the reward for participation?

5 years later and still nothing... wow.
well i have to say i support this 100%. i'd rather staff start working on this than give out genes like firefly or the recent tragically awful eye update. this would help in making exaltation less stigmatic and the additional boons are really needed for the amount of effort exalting takes vs the rewards it gives atm.

@Fayd @warriorjames
I love this and I suggest that if you give things something else might come out. Like exalting. It might be nice to include Baldwin too. For example:
Plaguebringer wants to try a new experiment, and is collecting materials and hiring workers.
“I need
[LIST]
[*] 10 Wildwood Moss [item=Wildwood Moss] For testing purposes.
[*] 5 Powerful Serthis Poison [item=Powerful Serthis Poison] To serve as the base
[*] 5 Southmarsh Podid Claws [item=Southmarsh podid claw] It has potential
[*] 1 Reinforced Glass Beaker [item=reinforced glass beaker] or 5 Glass Beakers [item=Glass Beaker] We need to keep it somewhere
[*] 1 Infused Fragment [item=infused fragment] We’ll see if we’re lucky
[*] 1 Plague Dragon I’ll need helpers, and no other deity has children that are as resistant as mine.
[/LIST]
per active member by 23:30 April 26th, 2018.”
I think a Baldwin item would be a good idea, because more people would use Baldwin’s Brew that way. It would also make trading Baldwin item possible. I don’t think genes or things like that would be a good thing to put in the pool of items that they might ask for.
I might be a good idea to do something like this:
You give StormCaller a Fae.
“Get back to work! You haven’t finished just uet!”
[i]Well that didn’t work out did it?[/i]
You give LightWeaver 10 Crumbling Reliefs [item=Crumbling Relief]
“Why thank you. Why don’t you have a few scroll cases?”
[i]You received 3 Scroll Cases from LightWeaver. [item=scroll cases] x3[/i]

@Xaphrinel It makes sense that there would be a base reward which could be built upon with participation. Everyone could discuss this to better the idea.
@CaliCa1 What takes place if you fail a flight project (there is a time limit for a project) wasn’t worked on since no one brought that up...and I haven’t touched it in quite a while. I’ll do a review/revision in a week or two. Also have to get my head back into gear.
@TruthandLies Is this idea intended for the overhaul or flight projects?
It looks like Fayd hasn’t been active for a while, hence the first post being updated 4 years ago. We will have to show patience for that to happen. I’m certain they will be excited to see what all of you have contributed.
