trading/selling/giving experience/faction

Feb 18, 2005 epadafunk link
It would be really neat if players could trade experience and faction with each other. I came up with this idea while helping someone with a bulk tg mission. I reallised that the only reward i would get would be money via /givemoney. Perhaps there should also be /giveexp and /givestanding commands. It could be used as a secondary currency for pirates also.

ex. playerA wants to help player B get levels so they can pvp

playerA: /giveexp combat "Player B" 1000

player A now has 1000 less combat exp and player B has 1000 more.

Perhaps someone wants really bad to get a mining maud and doesnt want to spend hours tging.

Player A has tung. standing, Player B has less.

Player A: "ok ill give you 500 tung. standing for 500,000 credits"

Player B: "ok" /givemoney "Player A" 500000

Player A: "givestanding tunguska "Player B" 500

Player B: YAY I CAN NOW GET A MAUD!!!!

Player A: YAY Im 500000 credits richer!!!!

both go on their merry way

Im getting tired of typing so i wont post more examples but you get the point.

Uhhh, no. Simply because, a level 10 in anything could probably drop down to 8, and another person goes from 0 to 8.

I have to agree with Fnugget. It may seem like a cool idea, but it would cause a huge issue with power leveling newbies or alts, as well as many game play and balance issues. I don't think selling or giving exp to a newbie is helping them nearly as much as showing them the ropes, techniques and what not.

Actually, I've been working on this a bit recently with some players, and I can rather easily help them in getting their combat XP up to level 3 in a very short time.

One hurts, one kills. With a 0 0 0 char in a bus racking single-shot kills on artemis, they go up in levels pretty quickly. Very helpful if you are to get a second character up. Not quite helpful for complete n00bs, because they can't stay away from the "clean" and "uninjured" bots that will attack them.
