While talking to a few friends about the implementation of "a new tier of march that not all bards will get," the idea of a new craft came up.
The craft was "Scroll Writing." The premise was that you could craft scrolls used to learn magic or cast magic.
When an nq synthesis takes place, you typically get a consumable "scroll of instant X." If it were an enhancing magic spell, it would be of low potency. Debuffs would depend on macc to land, and damage spells could be subject to different MAB mechanics. When you HQ the scroll, you get the scroll that can teach the spell to the appropriate job.
You could limit it to a select set of tiers or open it up to all tiers of spells. Given the "stagger" system, it seems to me that the consumables that relate to particular spells could have demand but inventory space would make any more than a few undesirable to use in VW.
Nobody levels a craft in order to make worthless shit. This would be the same. In truth, the ability to make scrolls of instant blazespikes or scrolls of instant raise would be of limited value. However, the ability to get scrolls that can teach the spells to the appropriate levels via HQ synthesis might liven crafting up a bit.
