Being able to choose between bedrest and the old companion dying system. So people that are fine with bedrest can have it. While people like me. Who don't like it can be happy with mojo potions and life fountains. Cause there are some who like bedrest. And some who do not. And they most CERTAINLY can not remove it. Cause like I said, most people like it. Also before you say. If you got scrapper for a companion. You will get a refund. But if you switch it back to bedrest. That talent will be back to scrapper. So next august. I would like to see this happen as part of the update

Sorry, but I don't agree. There needs to be some balance between power and consequences -- making the game too easy is NOT a good thing, and giving people too many choices to toggle on and off just leads to confusion. Look at Fast Combat.

Coding that in would delay any sort of update for months and months and months. We've already waited way too long for substantive updates in P101.

Sorry. I can't like this idea because of the ramifications for the coding and what that would do to an already irritating (lack of) update schedule.

Actually. I struggled WAY more when it was mojo potions and life fountains. So it's not Too easy

Well, why else do you think I am switching to wizard?

If you got this option, then I don't think you should have the ability to send companions on tasks and you'll be back to benching only 3 companions - remember, there's a trade off for everything.

It's a waste of time

Which would you prefer? Choosing the easy way out with the old system as an update or new adventures and books for an update

Either way bed rest makes the game more realistic and gives consequences to losing, when you lose a battle you spawn at a life fountain so there is no consequence, sorry but I like the suggestion but not the idea

Yeah. I meant the old companion system. It's a choice. Bedrest is easier. I just prefer the old system.

Then: Ugh... Rounding up blue yum is so hard. ( 1 Eternity later ) Yeah! I can go fight that guy! * 5 companions die * ( The process repeats )

Now: Oh yeah Troy. I can't wait to- * My well trained and over max level companions die * I will do it later... * Throws gold at Miracle Mitch then takes whatever he uses to revive them * * Wins dungeon * WOO.

If anything. I'd say bedrest is easier.
