Suggestion - Buff the hobo class

[1998Corolla 333]

 

Description: Give a buff to the Hobo class to allow them to gain XP from dumpster diving.  Reasoning: From what I can usually tell, about 10% of the players on the server on a busy night play as hobos. There are usually around 10 of us on a given night. The only way to gain XP as a hobo is to get it from the regular in game XP from being AFK. Hobos don't get XP from the donation box or dumpster diving at the moment

I primarily main the hobo, so levelling up just one level can take me about a week of in game time, or I can grind the deliveryman for 30ish minutes to get to get to the next level in game. There are already cool downs on dumpster diving, so it wouldn't be a super large buff but enough of one to at least assist in levelling a bit.

Personally I kinda like how deliveries give xp+money, and hobos get strictly money from dumpster diving. They also get knives and drugs from the dumpsters as well.

Hobo has never really been a class designed to farm xp. The people who play hobo are usually just chillin in the street socializing, which is the antithesis of basing/progression oriented classes such as thief/meth manufacturer.

I agree that hobos are normally a social butterflies but I’ve also met the hobos that have a track down for the dumpsters that leads in a circle and apparently it’s not a bad money maker.
 

I think this should be implemented to give those new players that do need that little extra boost to get a start. Delivery man isn’t until level 2 which isn’t crazy to do but this just opens the door to new players and for that reason I’ll 

+1

+1 however; I agree with proggy to a point. At least if its in a more creative way. such as making an npc to trade trash for exp or something? Its intangible but something of the general speaking.

That's true, though perhaps just like how its random getting cash / fists / knife / drugs, maybe there could be a random chance to get some XP?
