SP gain...

[hetejorn]

If gaining more quests for SP is a lot of a hassle, make some monster that drops collectibles that can be Alchemized into SP. Make it so it gets harder every other couple of sp gains. Otherwise people will be able to get to auto lvl strength. But at least gives A) reason to do beasty and b) more then 1 opportunity to gain sp. Not only from quests that only appear once every 6 months. IOr maybe make the runes be turnable into sp alchemy.
Top of list other game:

As you can see in the 2nd list, the number of collection components needed, is quite a bit higher then at the top. This makes sure you don't gain incredible amounts of SP during a lvl, but you can still progress in your character building. It is quite a different way of character building from CA, making HoD more of it's own game. It would also make people are not just doing the same beasty over and over again for items they already have over a dozen times, but they can actually do something with those items, which would be transferring them to SP... I think this would make a lot of people happy. Of course you need to make up the plan of how many times people can collect at a certain point, before the difficulty goes up. If it goes up after every collection I think it would go too fast... There is prolly some smart dude who can come up with some sort of smart idea how to exactly implement it. I know in the game I took these pics from, I don't start uber-lvl-ing at all despite having collection items of 16 beasties and the new collections giving 5 sp per collection. The highest ones are just more difficult to beat... Just an idea I honestly stole from another game...

[Edit] Don't think of doing it like That other game that LotS of people play these days too. It gets people way overpowered and turns everyone in pure farmers...

PS I just copied this from my own comment I made earlier in General... Considering that was Flarin's thread... This is more of a suggestion though...
