skinning

i too play rangers so that i can spend time sitting in one spot while i wait on a skinning delay

personally the way I see it is its up to you the player to emote out how and to what degree you skin with. I emote most of the time and id sudgest others to do the same. one it will kill the llag time and second it just looks good.  When I play a ranger I go into alot of detail when it comes to tanning.. theres so many ways to tan hides you be surprized.  And as far as I know skin is a skill.. Krath knows I miss it when in a role with out the skill..  my two cid

When I skin stuff, I usually just set my ldesc and then wait for 3-4 minutes before I actually skin it.  Sometimes I'm in a hurry and do it quickly, but you all can deal with that.

or something of that nature.

I don't know why a slightly more realistic yet not gameplay-shattering compromise can't be found.

Ya know... something between a realistic 20 minute delay and the current situation where I frequently see people skin animals where they drop within a few seconds and maybe a meagre emote.

Of course there's a lot of other things which is wonky about the skinning system, like been unable to get a single chunk of meat from an enormous mekillot carcass if you fail your skinning attempt. The whole thing needs to be overhauled if you ask me.

Delay this skill, please.

I feel like doing this every time I see "homeboy skins x8," but I don't wanna have to be this guy and report it.

It takes a lot of responsibility not to be a douche. I'm going to start doing what synth does. I did for a while, but I -am- going to do it now.

The stuff Tuannon suggests has been mentioned for Arm Reborn, for what it's worth.

This get's me wet...
