Scaling Glyph Skill Buffs Idea

[Ralnos]

Presently, the only thing that scales for everyone glyph use-wise (besides the obvious mental capacity limitations) is duration. I think skill buffing glyphs, when drawn by someone with arcana training, should get a percentile bonus to the activator's base skill (perhaps capping at a lower percentile bonus max if you're not an Arcanist or Arcanists just get a flat bonus to the percentage? Both?) so, for example, if I'm a Warlock and draw uyto for someone else and I have 500 arcana, it'll give the usual 60 perception but also a percentile bonus of their base perception. I.E. If they had 200 perception they'd get 200+5% and then the flat +60, resulting in a gain of 70. Maybe make it +1% to +1.5% per 100 arcana to keep the bonuses sane.

It'd certainly aid the issue in that the only reason to get more arcana as a non-Arcanist right now is to boost your Glyph Retention rank maximum and your glyph durations.
