A:) Add limbs/base locations to the armor and weapon teaching command.

b:) Expand classes exponitally instead of blocked, with a higher limit of 10 at 1000 instead of 5.

c:) Empaths and Bards get the special ability to teach the same class together(to the same students)

d:) Move languages onto a format simular to the smoke list, and allow only bards and traders to teach other languages, Let anyone enhance "other languages" with an int base for number of languages able to be learned, starting with 2 at 10 int.
2 at 10 (common+native)
3 at 20 int
4 at 35 int
5 at 50 int
etc with a 15 int gap between langauges.

Also have a percentage knowledge maxed at 100 earned by speaking to with boosts for teaching it. Non native speakers maxing at 85% efficiency

e: Add "general Sign Language" to the availible languages, with Thief, Barb and Bard SL guild only.

f: Teaching from the native tongue should always be 10-20precent more effective than teaching from common or a foriegn language, either a penalty for speaking in a nonnative(lang x) or a bonus for speaking in native.

maybe a +1/10 ranks bonus for teaching from native with a max of +10 effective teaching ranks or a +1 effective rank per 10% proficiency of the language

With a -40% foreign language penalty and a 20% common penalty.

There are already bonuses in place for teaching to someone of your own race, and it is substantial.

That and your own guild.




What if during a class the teacher could take 'notes' about how the class was progressing and planning for the next class. These notes could then be used later on to gain exp in teaching (over a period of time). This is might help to balance the idea of needing students to teach versus not. These notes could then be used in a subsequent class for a small boost at the beginning.

As long as bards get to keep their teaching bonus <f's grace> when teaching to overcome racial/guild differences. Although when teaching my barb with my bard while using the grace in tf, my barb experienced innner fire loss. :-(

Although maybe more appropriate for Scholarship (I will also make the suggestion there), how about at a certain number of ranks you can learn a new language? For example, at 200 ranks you can learn one new language, 500 ranks a second new language and so forth?

Gonifbard, have your tried starting grace <song quiet> until it pulses, then <song loud>? I do that in empaths and clerics when i help triage, and usally dont see a grimace.
