Can we make diamond coins like addy coins, deliverable across servers?

Re: Ideas Thread 2017 / 2018
A while ago, you made some buffs to multiclassing (other than priest) to make them more lucrative. Magery doesn't offer anything as a sub class, and while the utility is good, the utility is on the high end of the skill, and the stat offset makes it less than ideal.
I was thinking as a secondary perk, enchants could get buffed on all weapons (possibly ignoring staves) based on your magery/sorcery skill. I think the easiest would be something like a 50% increased chance to trigger at 100% magery/sorcery.

Re: Ideas Thread 2017 / 2018
Weapon damage balancing:
This is the impact of an upgrade from a copper claymore +1 to an untinted claymore +6.
I actually lose 17dps (>10%) for upgrading to a weapon with a substantially higher level requirement than the entry level one I am using.
I'm sorry but this is just wrong.

It's because of the tint.

copper weapon had a disadvantage: fast wear
wear was gone ( for what reason? I liked it) = copper weapon buff.

Re: Ideas Thread 2017 / 2018
I really thought it was obvious, seems it's not, so I'll elaborate.
A +1 no matter what tint or buff weapon should never be anywhere near as good as a +6 with no tint no matter what, never mind be better by a substantial margin. The level requirement difference between the two is a clear indicator of how imbalanced this is.

Its a legacy of old dnd formulae. Tint bonuses are multipliers, while +AS damage bonus is flat addition. Not saying it cant be fixed, but its so baked in to everything that everything else would have to change and be rebalanced. Everything.

Re: Ideas Thread 2017 / 2018
Yeah, this is the thing then. It's probably not worth trying to fix it because exactly why you said. What really needs to happen then is that a shittier weapon doesn't have a level requirement umpteen times that of of a superior weapon.LaughingCoyote wrote:Its a legacy of old dnd formulae.

Everything.
Actually just looking at the level requirement comparison between these two weapons this can not be fixed to anything that even resembles balance.
Nope, only way to fix this is to rebalance everything.
It's sad though, at least I find it sad because this game has so much potential. There is already so little in terms of weapon scaling and progression because item properties are so flat. This honestly breaks the game for me. I just have too high standards I guess.

I’ll tell ya an adamantium musket makes a reg+9 musket look like crap. Seems wrong but tints do make a huge dif.

Lvl5 or is it even zero requirement to use an adamantium musket vs lvl117 required to use a reg+9. Entry level outperforms (near) end-game tier.

Re: Ideas Thread 2017 / 2018
Level requirements could probably be reworked without having to rebalance the entire game, since its independent of combat/damage etc. Give all the craftable tints a level requirement multiplier on +AS, with plain at 0.1x say. So a plain long sword +9's level requirement would be 0.5 x 117 = 59 (rounded up)
plain = 0.5
gold = 0.5
silver = 0.6
copper = 0.7
runed = 0.7
addled = 0.8
venomous = 0.8
blackrock = 0.9
vampyric, adamantium, glass, crystal, mithril, barbed, diamond, steel, bone = 1.0
You would see lower level chars rocking copper or runed +8 weps more, which gives them a use and better weapon level req progression, and make plain +stat items more useful.
P.S. NG should get weekend server bonuses as well, now that its FOTM.

every other weekend could be x2 bosses. (same weekend as PD's x2 bosses and Reg's x2 bosses). this way you have to pick a server.LaughingCoyote wrote:P.S. NG should get weekend server bonuses as well, now that its FOTM.
