Two more requests:
BEAST INFO without a modifier should default to the one that's out.
Add a tree climbing skill, please!

Something to see how much longer incubation will last?
Like the College/Guild score, has a count down until it's no longer there.

Beastmastery change requests / Ideas:
o Add scooping to Beastmastery. (unless it is no longer required to get items while mounted)
o Allow feed items to be shopriftable or groupable to make stocking them in larger quantities easier. Same for reagents
o Make beasts eat from their feedbag first when stabled and only -then- eat the stable food to allow people to train them in a reasonable time even if not logged in much.
o Have more feed fit into the feedbag. Right now it is only like 5 feed lasting 5? hours. Make it 10-20.
o Allow beasts to be referred to by name. IE right now you'd do BEAST INFO. Allow the use of BEAST INFO for easier checking.
o Allow for BEAST INFO without a modifier to default to the beast currently summoned.
o Make it so the beast coming out of incubation comes out with at least one hour's worth of food in his feedbag, to avoid what happened to Thoros and others, where it died the instant it came out because that happened to be midnight.
o Addition of a tree climbing skill.
Possible Bugs / Weirdness:
o Rumor has it Incubation should be 24 rl hours. It is actually 30? Longer in either case.

Make collared beasts retrainable! Don't want to train a permanent beast only to find you messed something up or don't need something it knows anymore.

I forget if it was mentioned, but allowing reagents to be regular riftable or have a longer decay time would make me happy.

Updated. I added something about making teaching new skills not boring since when I taught one of my beasts Battle, all I got was a generic 'You train a young male horse with a black mane to battle.' If this isn't the case, could someone poke me?

Perhaps offer some cool training montages.
CODE
You tip a conveniently located bard a few gold as he rocks into an awesome montage solo.
Jumping heavily onto your (mounts) back, you forcibly straighten it's wings and order it to break into a gallop. After that plan fails you sit there just flapping it's wings up and down for a while.
Through the magic of the timeskip your mount learns to fly... somehow

Xiel2008-10-14 18:22:34
Yeah, got tested. The training messages are all dull. You train a young female horse with a silvery tail to regenerate ego.
I'll come up with fancy sentences if the admin want to put the possibility in.

Ozymandis is a creature from popular books. You can't have it!
Also, for beastmastery, this stuff is confusing.

Do horses die of old age?
Xiel2008-10-14 18:47:31
I'll gladly explain things.
Also, this whole 'wait for an hour for a single feeding' thing is bothersome. I really hope that the whole 'use up feedbag feed in stables before stable food' thing goes in, cause this one pony will take 40+ hours of me physically being here to feed it before it can learn a skill is worrisome.
Edit:
YES! Thank you!
