Re: Diplomacy on Test Question

Thanks for the response, Absalon. I didn't realize that it become much easier to lever stuff as you got higher.

From what I understand, a lot of diplomacy (like the trade routes you mentioned) isn't in yet. Right now, it seems very separate from crafting and adventuring. It'll be interesting to see if the developers set it up so it starts interacting more with the other spheres. Like higher level diplomacy being necessary to get some legendary recipes post-30. Or civic diplomacy that affects zones where higher level people adventure, so if you're going to be raiding a zone, a diplomat could work some levers to get everyone in the zone a significant damage or resist bonus or something. Maybe some of that stuff is already in and I don't realize it, though.

The idea to have test diplomats able to push levers a bit further than normal seems like it might encourage more test-types to take up the sphere. Might be useful as things like trade routes come online and need to be tested.
