Staff-crap

[Punishment]

/*
creator's notice

set_bonuses needs to have some materials binded, aka collect a random variety of materials and "grind staff"
to get them to affect stats. Basic bonuses could be something like +1 allstats (spr, ac and hpr too) then
being raised by the materials grinded.
The materials reset every boot.

The small BUT is that those materials need to be added to the room code with masteryskill search materials
gold - str, silver - dex, bronze - con, wood - int, paper - wis, granite - wc, sand - hpr, glass - spr, steel - specialhit damage
(above ones are just ideas)

Naturally there would be a limit which bonuses to take, lets say max 15 all together. I tried to comment the ideas to above, most important
note is that the basic staff should be easy to find, maybe even from some of some city/cities and the materials harder.

Also, it would not harm to have a mastery skill which could remove binded materials and either save them or lose them in the progress

Message me if you would like some more details of my idea.
