Feedback for the Music Tradeskill System

[harpwn]

So firstly I love the idea of the music tradeskill, I think its pretty solid as is but I think it can be so much better.

Also for context I play ALOT of guitar hero so I have found everything so far incredibly easy.

• I would love consistent interval lines on the music track which keep pase with the song. This is pretty common in music games. I find most of my slip ups in this game came from when songs suddenly change timings or a note is slightly off time.
• Expert is WAY too easy, I really think you would do well to squish current expert into skilled and then build a proper expert difficulty, maybe only certain songs thats fine, I just want a challenge.
• Buffs… I dont like the way the buff system works, it makes your choice of what song to pick irrelevant, it attaches no value on each song. I would keep the generic buffs per play BUT I would add unique buffs to at the very least solo songs, maybe just azoth flute songs, I like the idea of that being the buff instrument whilst everything else is essentially for fun, if that was the case then keep all azoth flute songs short. Almost feels like this was the original intention, fishers lament… wtf.
• Show a % complete/score for each song, show a star next to each part of a song I have 100%ed
• I want to be rewarded for my master on certain instruments, if I can 100% a certain number of songs on a certain instrument on a certain difficulty I want a title to display that. Reward me for playing specific instruments please.
• The star next to a song should only appear once you have 100% all parts of that song on all instruments.
• Some of the songs seem to be slightly off, the notes and the sounds dont seem to match up.
• I would really appreciate the ability to change the double click to something on my keyboard.
• Points earned for a song should scale with the songs length, so people stop spamming windward inn to level up.
• Why is there no flute on expert, I like playing flute but it is sub-optimal for leveling up…
• Most importantly! I want a song that attracts wildlife, that would be awesome.

I dont like the way the buff system works,

I totally agree there needs to be a lot more buff variety. And getting the same buff for doing an easy version versus an expert version doesn’t make sense. Why would I ever play expert level to get the 90 minute 5% harvest luck bonus when I can get the exact same on the easiest level. Expert should be much harder and give an additional 5%.
