Report #804
Skillset: Tinkering Skill: New
 Org: Minstrels Status: Completed Jun 2012
Furies' Decision:
We do not like the solutions suggested and will implement something else for
Tinkers.
Problem: With the change to make it so that esteem can only be imbued onto
enchanted figurines, communes incur a problem considering only city-based
Spellcrafters are the only enchanting specialization able to create imbuable
figurines.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #1: Enable Tinkerers to enchant figurines much like
 Spellcrafters can.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #2: Altogether move figurine enchanting to base
 Enchantment and introduce a new skill to Spellcraft
 to make up for their lack of figurine contribution.
 An idea is for a spell that can be used once on a
 figurine to make it malleable and capable of being
 resculpted into a new form. No levels or esteem is
 lost, just the change of the figurine's form.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #3: As above with moving figurine enchanting to base
 Enchantment and a new skill in Spellcraft, however,
 the skill idea would instead be a spell that can be
 only used once a Lusternian month (and lasts for an
 hour) on a figurine that would increase the amount of
 experience it gains from defeating other figurines. A
 large (think, 5 powerstones or something) cost is
 suggested to balance out the benefits of this
 enchantment.

APPROVE. Solution 1. Though leaning more towards also a yes towards Solution 3,
I don't really see a need to change the look of a figurine, since you can have
one made to however you like, and those that don't really care what theirs looks
like will just buy or make whatever.

Supported, I like solution 1 but accept that it leaves Tinkers with more
miniature skills than Spellcrafters (since Tinkers have RepairMiniature). I'd be
happy to give Spellcrafters repair in return, or see something else given to
them like in solutions 2/3. I quite like sol 2 and think it would see use.
