@daz just be careful, someone can remember where u usualy do it, sell this info to humans and they put pants on you by force ;)))

Spy skill can no only include info collecting and tracking, how about fake names?

@eurav yes ofcourse nobody will be happy if you r spying but no one can prove you are spy, if they ask you for screeshots you simply leave spyguild and join it again later. everyone will do spying, everyone will sell out their mates, cos there is no danger, unless you are doing direct spying like a following your victim. he cant notice you cos you follow tracks but maybe he go back and catch you following him, even then he cant prove anything.

however we can make up some anti-spy defence, or spy detector, any thoughts?

in some manga, I've seen mages turning their MP into almost invisible little lines stuck in their opponents to track them down.
It would be interesting to have a similar ability, of course while the ability is active she would be spending mp constantly.

this is good idea too. but since everyone can do tracking there is no difference

@eurav you have to remember that strong one never brake. spying like a spider web, it can stop only weak ones but strong one wont even notice it.

@eurav so what? you dont need like 10 hours to stay on Arboriuse if you know all information where to find your victim besides beastems are offten visite human planet so if you have records then some beastme shows up in human planet every weeek you can wait for this beastmen with group of demons friends. also with egregor points there could be information available which was descovered by spys who and how much has egregor points, also same way can be achived info about who has a lots of gold and assasisns can hunt for gold using spy info.

@eurav i thought demons have like 30 minuts on beastman planet after planet is pushing them out. but how about eclipse??

@eurav why beastman cant? if demans know where to find you, 30 minutes is enough to find and kill u

@azraelius no you cant)

@eurav i guess everyone will be interested to become a spy. everyone. cos its a secret and no one can reveal it. unless u act very suspetiouse. players who will find out that someone sell them out will try to find out who that was, maybe they try to perform special actions to reveal the spy amongst their own kind. its not easy to forcly find out who is it. so there could be like double agents as well. it will be like big game of spying and thats what we need, more freedom, cos its money you know, its just a money. all info can be sold and it should be. it make players to feel intrigue, like husband cheating on his wife, its adrenaline, its exitment, its a risk.

PS- espetialy if we implement some system like egregor one when you can lose what you had at once if you got killed, then it will have more sense. you got killed once and you lost everything you got. it can be egregor points or your gear or karma it doesnt matter- you ve lost something after u got killed. thats it.

@eurav said in Spying As a Skill:

Demons most likely with time should be able to collect information like that themselves. Then what is the need for spies?

demons can come for half an hour just for purpouse of spying

I havent thought too long for this one but i have some concept in my head.

We have those assasins builds already so we have to have spys as well, otherwise how we will find out where to find our victim. And if we will have Egregor system which you can find here Egregors then hunting for egregor points will top accupation almost for everyone, for example you can bounty hunt some top priest and pay big dollar for that order in case if all his egregor points you will give to orderer.

anyways. Everyone can become a spy. it is mot skill at all. you can just press SPYING botton and forget about this. your character will start to collect an information. say you go to the dangeon with a group so you are collecting info about your friends, or you visite often trader so he can collect info about you,
information can be a different type:

1. what location some player visite
2. what time he visit it.
3. how often he visit it
4. with how namy people he visit it
5. what he does there
6. where is players house located
7. how much gold he has
8. how much egregor points he has
9. etc.

all info can be collected while staing with this ccharacter or....

by following him. yes you follow player by tracking his tracks from the distance. maybe you can use some sort of magic which alerts you when this player appeared at territory you marked as markable territory, i dont know, but to see his tracks you obviously have to stay near for a while. maybe some chit chat, so be careful to talk to strangers.

all spys can join spy guild where they are annonimusly can place orders and sell info.

sorry guys, im in a rush cos my crabs and wine are waiting for me so you can suggest something of yours. se ya

@eurav sure mate no worries. but i really recomend pay attention to culculation cos its just shows the progress. for example if you have 100 cert and i have only 5 then i will pay you like 40% tribute (this is maximum) this a lot and this is collaps. in this case people will get rid of guild and governore ruling the city. but say you have like double amount then my amount then i will pay u only like 4%. so its not that crazy unless you are really gave up on trading.

@eurav thank u for your responce, i see that u didnt read it all cos obviously tier is just an example, you could tell if u read it all. its just indicator of some top res (hard to get, in certain aria etc) and more common res like low tier. obviously the wood which grows next to the city is more common, but maybe if there is a lack of this wood in other city then it can be obviously used in economic wars that im suggesting. please read all or at least last paragraph PS
