We are working on the Begging skill to ease it out of the 'useless' category.
With that in mind . . today we have brought in our first tweaks.
Beggars can now become a somewhat useful companion during battles with monsters. They do not have full Bard abilities but if you or your pet are battling monsters a Beggar can use the begging skill to stun the monster temporarily while it considers the begging request. There is also a small chance in confusion that the monster might actually give the Beggar some tradium coins.
Note: At this point in time the Beggar cannot use the skill to stall a monster who is already attacking him and if he uses the skill against a monster who is not fighting something it will simply start fighting the Beggar.
Having said that . . . we hope to add more value to Beggars in the future like enhancing the value and rarity of what they might receive from the skill. All of this will be structured on the skill level. We may also enhance the skill to have a chance of stopping things from attacking the Beggar.
However . . before we do anything further on this we need to be 'rock steady' sure the script changes work. In testing we had two server crashes which we have worked out. We think we have all the kinks solved but broader testing will make us more comfortable.
* thanks to the Funk for this idea *
Cheers

Interesting. I'm wondering what other things you have in mind for this skill. Guess I'll have to dig my beggar out and dust him off. Always amazed you keep evolving the world without chucking the baby with the bathwater. Good work Am.
