Ideas on a hunting skill?

Connortehpotato · 03-29-2015

I've been thinking about how we can tie skills together to have them equally benefit one another. One way I've been able to conjure up is a hunting skill, i'm not all for sure yet about if we should make it to where players just go around whacking animals for their meat. To me that seems kind of bland, it would be neat to have a way of tracking an animal like grabbing a rock and it will show you the places where to check for the critter in the surrounding area. Once you found/trapped the animal, you would be rewarded it's meat. You can then either sell to a shopkeeper for X amount of gralats, or you could cook the meat, thus incorporating a cooking skill as well, and sell it to the shop keeper for a little more gralats than the uncooked meat which would give players the ability to raise two skills at once. Perhaps later on we can add furs and stuff to go along with crafting, to craft other sorts of items.

This is just an idea i came up with, if you like this idea feel free to comment and help me come up with the perfect system for this skill.

I really like this.

Maybe we have to collect a certain amount of meat a day and you willget a certain amount of money each time. You will have to give it to a certain NPC. after X amount of days, if you have given all the meat on in time, you will get a promotion, so you will get more money each time you give him the the meat but you will have to collect more meat. If you miss out on 2 days, you will grt a demotion. If you miss out on one you will not get a promotion. Getting a promotion could mean levelling up in the hunting skill.

Lets say the amount of days handing meat in on time is 7 days. The first week, i hand all my meat in on time and i get a promotion. I am now level 2. I used to give 5 peices of meat a day and get 30 graalats a day. Now i am level 2, i get 40 graalats a day but have to hand 7 peices of meat in a day. On the 2nd week, i hand all my meat in on 6 days but not on one of them. I stay the same level and dont get the money from the day i didnt hand the meat in. On the 3rd week i dont hand in any meat at all. I get demoted. I am now back to level 1.

Of course the graalats given and the amount of days tou have to hand the meat in could be altered but this is just an example.

Fur making. I made a thread about this aswell and i think it would be great. We could get the fur from the animals you kill and craft then at the crafting place. We could have 2 hats for each fur and 1 body. It Would be great

What about more then just hunting. What about just like smithing you have to clean the animal. First you kill it and "Dead Animal" goes into your inventory. Then you take it to a "Shack" and skin and clean the animal for it's meat. It could be like a mini game sorta thing and the better you do the more meat you get to sell. Or perhaps keep the meat to eat it and heal health. Also you have to skin the animal in so many days do the meat does not "Go Bad". Then the hunting class could be integrated into all of that stuff. Just my thoughts, all feedback welcome.

Love the idea. We could also add:
-Fletching
-Herblore
-Smithing
-Agility
-Construction

Why not?

Itkitt321 · 07-19-2015

What about cooking skill?

We can catching fish or use this hunting skill [ if it will ever happen ] to cook and make food, you can eat it, sell it or serve it!

Not sure about the serve it part though but this is my idea.

Fish could be made as grilled fish, fish soup and etc.
Hope you like my idea

This is an AWESOME idea! I really hope this gets added.
Another idea- I saw the idea of 'cleaning animals for the meat after they are killed, than cooking them. What if you could do the same with fish...than you could have even more cooking options.
