Mass-Read to pet as GA perk or SP Sink
Replies
IMO, its tedious enough keeping track of books already read and books to read, and then buying them all that this suggestion isn't unreasonably lazy. So basically I'm thinking like either a quick-stock to pet to read books to them for a GA perk OR for like 10k SP per book you go to some magical guy who helps your pet speed read every book in your inventory available to them.
I agree it is tedious. But I think every book in your inventory might be too much.
Maybe for 100k Sp (the 10k each) you can speed read 10 books at a time to a pet? Would speed it up some but not be excessive.

I could see this though; maybe it lists every book you have in your inventory with a checkbox (with a checkall) if you want to mass-read it for 10k each and a dropdown to which pet.
I don't think its too unreasonably, buying and keeping track are the hard parts anyhow, and whats the difference between 10x faster or 100x faster to read?
Yeah lore wise it could be cool, but with quick stock there could be tc option as well i spose.
With QS it would be cool to integrate read/tc for your active pet but I can see too many people be all oh shoots I put the items in the wrong tc or read to the wrong pet. With Books at least you can do them pretty unlimited but with TC you are restricted to number of slots so an error message would have to added. It would be nice if on the pet's tc page it could also do a checkbox thing to mass add.
I read to all 30 of my pets because they're all battlers, and wow reading to them is pretty time consuming even though reading from inventory stacks has been re-enabled. I like this idea. It's a luxury benefit, so I think the proposed price it's too cheap. 25KsP per book is more like it, IMO.
If more GA perks are needed the ability to do this, it could still be a GA perk and then still have the cost of the sP sink amount, too. There's no reason that there should be an 'OR' like in the OP. A GA reduces training times, but you still need to pay to take advantage of the autotrain bonus you get from this.
Speaking of reading to multiple pets, there are two ways this feature could go. It could only read to active pet, or it could read (or attempt to read) multiple books down your pet order until you run out.
