    Co. Workshop, Airship & your FC?

    So I'm wondering how your FC has yours set up?
    Ours is set so only five people (officers) can start and end projects and send the airships out.

    Kind of wonder how this will be beneficial to the regular members since they can bring back crafting materials like the leather for the company tabard.

    Edit: kind of thought the workshop would be more to be honest. Maybe each member could make their own ship or something.

    I have a feeling most of your replies to this thread will simply be people pointing out they don't even have a FC house to build a workshop in... The vast majority of the playerbase has no access to this feature.

    The devs need to completely halt all new housing features until they've found a way to let every player and FC that wants a house buy one.

    I dont think the vast majority of the playerbase would be able to afford it if they did have access to it. Even if everyone had a FC, and every FC had a house and a workshop; most players still wouldnt have access to shipbuilding.

    Shipbuilding is actually not costly if you gather the matts and craft them yourself.

    Ofcourse. Most of the playerbase is willing to spend many hours gathering to make airship parts. Or for that matter most of the playerbase has all crafting classes at high level? And gathering classes?


    Remember, its most of the playerbase you made your topic for, isnt it; since you ask about the benefit for regular members of a FC? Altho access for all is something I agree with as well, if they wanted to truly make it accessible for all they would have to rework the amount of types of materials required, and the way of turning them in (have to be the required crafting class)

    They have the option to, its not cut off from them, they just have to choose how they want to gain it. Either work for it (cus you dont need HQ mats, just have 1 person in the FC each level a single craft at best) or buy the mats. We can't have everything spoon fed to people.

    No its not, you just have to invite 2 crafters to your party, let them inside your home to aid you in your Airship craft.

    Reblogging for utter truth, and that's regardless of having gatherers/crafters/money/time to do airship stuffs.

    But yeah, gotta keep that top 1% happy, they're the most important, etc etc etc. ._.

    um, there are like 480 houses in each city state, with 3 city-states that's 1440 houses in TOTAL. and the vast majority of them are owned by FCs. if building airships is something you really want to do then surely there's an FC out there for you to join

    We have members who's main focus is crafting, so we have a engineer rank who mans it and as well as officers who take more interest in crafting as well. Everyone gives what they can. On the 3rd ship now.

    I let anyone who is interested run the airship, strangly that only seems to be me at the moment. I have a hard policy that all materials brought back are either sold/saved/stored for FC use. Any profits accrued go right into the Bank to fund future projects hopefully not out of members pockets.
