So much good info there. I see that Seneschal has an important role now.

Saw this:

"Swamplands: High Fish rating, average Wood, Game, and Ore ratings, but terrible in Fish and Herds."


1 person marked this as a favorite.

So there are a lot of fish, but they're terrible?

We suspect the terrible rating is for when you try to plant the fish and harvest crops from it.

@devs: do you expect that seneschals will be on par level with the other skills in-game? I'm sure a few people actually have alts with xp saved for just that purpose, but probably not every settlement.

Turns out it was supposed to be terrible in Stone instead.

The main feature of the Seneschal skill is reducing upkeep. For now, the crafting aspect of it only gains recipes at the first few ranks (there's the normal crafting time reduction for higher skill total, of course). But we realized this week that it could basically eat the possibility space for Architect (which hadn't previously had enough stuff to do to really justify a whole skill), so I expect us to assign Seneschal more features as time goes on.
