::::"Some players assign about one dwarf in 20 to this labor." - well, with what result? do those players engrave everything? everything important? what is important? i reworded a bit, but some detailed example(s) would really be helpful. --[[User:Koltom|Koltom]] 01:21, 10 February 2008 (EST) | ::::"Some players assign about one dwarf in 20 to this labor." - well, with what result? do those players engrave everything? everything important? what is important? i reworded a bit, but some detailed example(s) would really be helpful. --[[User:Koltom|Koltom]] 01:21, 10 February 2008 (EST) | ||
:::::As a 'detailed' example (hah!), I smooth absolutely everything, and then engrave areas that add to room value and happiness (dining rooms, bedrooms, etc.), and I never have more than one engraver. Once you get up to around Professional or Great levels of engraver skill, hundreds of tiles can be smoothed or engraved in a single season, even factoring food/drink breaks. So I don't think one dwarf in twenty is necessary, I don't think more than one dwarf period is necessary. Since constructions can't be smoothed or detailed, forts relying on external construction have even less need for a lot of engravers. Smoothing and engraving does add to room value and aesthetic appeal of a fort though, I often design my rooms in order to be attractive when engraved.
