Brahmin shit Shovelling.

[Chosen One]

Two part:
1. Nerf the shit (pun intended) out of xp for shoveling. It's really, pretty silly. In fact, it should be nerfed to 1 xp to level 10, then NO xp after that.
2. Buff the ap's for shoveling to 1 ap per shit. It takes too damned long to clean even a moderate sized pen.

But don't change the caps. 5 is pretty good per shit.

Nerfing shit shoveling? What next?

Seriously, shit shovelling? At least cart unloading requires the skill to drop them in the right place.

-1, its meant for players to get to lvl 2 fast enough so they can go do tent quest. Faster new people have tents the better

Who levels up by shit shoveling outside Hub anymore? Junk town maybe... Gecko? Redding? No one.
Shit shoveling there is to get 150-ish caps to go see the doc after the mines or to hop on a train when you give the car to the alt (Redding and Gecko respective). Has ANYONE shoveled out Klamath or Modoc....... well, EVER? :/

ALTHOUGH........
IS there a way to put a Stat check on Hub/Junk town shit shovelling? Like >level 5 or so?

Mike is right, Shit shoveling should be nerf, it's way beyond OP right now, EVERYBODY is doing it to level up, if this 'shit' continues much longer the whole economy will be broken and everyone will be roaming the streets with implants... i hope this gets fixed fast...

Ontopic:

-1 lol

Ignoring the falmaebait....

(I)t's way beyond OP right now, EVERYBODY is doing it to level up...

That's just it- NO ONE is. Deliver the message, unload a cart, give what's his name a shovel, and BOOM. You're off to get your first tent.

But Hell, ok... so in Junktown and Hub, a level check. But.....

Have you SEEN Redding recently? It's actually a little heartbreaking to me. My ex grew up there, his dad still lives there....

And it's dangerous to go visit Dan. It's sometimes dangerous to go to the saloon or the doctor. Brahmin shit literally everywhere means you WILL fall down. Period. Not a matter of "if" or really "when" but "how many times just trying to get a support perk/your arm healed/a beer." I feel bad, sort of, for you pure TC autists, you mush get your asses handed to you A LOT just from slipping on a pile of crap.

In fact, I first developed the Redding Method (mine, shovel shit, see the doctor, bang the shit out of the whore in Malamute) just because I did hurt myself going in there to use the workbench.

Why are your suggestions so shit

[Apostle]

The shit to XP ratio is fine, there's no need to change it. They get to level 2 or 3 then start learning how to craft and kill things in the waste. They don't stick to the boring shit shoveling. Why nerf it?

Shady Sands, since it tends to have a bit more shit to it. Occasionally I have to take a noob to there to get the shit because Hub and Junktown may already be shit free. Which can be a bit annoying, they don't understand the party system and run away from an encounter, etc.

Which would actually encourage the idea to increase the shitting rate a bit for Hub brahmin. They likely won't go to NCR until they're up a few levels, anyway. Though, it's always funny to watch a noob stumble upon the typically flooded NCR brahmin pens when you tell them they have to clean it. lol

Still, give the Hub moo-moos laxative.

It happens. *sigh*

Never seen it happen, but ok. Add Shady Sands to that list...... just for shits and giggles (*boooo! hiiiiiiiss) Gunrunner too.
But beyond that? NEVERED.

Another suggestion I mean to get to. :/

Add pens/brahmin?

"What, you mean ALL of it?"
"Every last pile kid. Start shovelling. And, no dammit, use the shovel!"
