if nothing else, a-fucking-man to that one. 110% agree.
+1 This makes too much sense. People are going to spam the spells regardless, myself included. This would save so many headaches.

Just because I think Priests and Necros should get their own specials.

Divine Intervention- (Priest special) 3 Second blind or hold on target mob, summons two angels that only use XM.

Hell Gate- (Necro special) Every floor tile surrounding you (Including the one that you're on, so a 3x3 tile box) temporarily becomes a lava tile that does the 3% max hp damage to everything standing in the center.

beings that red potions are currently almost useless. (because everyone starts with 20 healing and bandages, so they can heal poison)

Can we make red potions 50% less XJ time? (for about 300secs like brown pots for speed) Give them a use again? XJ is a pain in the rump and that's the only thing I can think of.

As a now fighter, this would be extremely helpful. I don't know what the ingreds would be for that. but maybe something like

Code: Select all

red potion: requires
flask (x1) --to hold the potion
garlic (x1) --for shits and giggles?
dragon scales (x6) --for potion str?
wet clay (x1) --clay comes from Golem (and golems from Alpha seem to be immune from everything) so this is where the immunity comes in play? 

--P.S. I have no idea wtf I'm doing trying to make a potion.

Simple two ideas to make a bit useless right now tints more useful and valuable:

- venomous weapon should poison monster (EDIT: it's poisoning monster right now, but poison should work in a different way), so every 3 seconds it would have 50% chance to lose 20% of max hp (numbers are example)

- silver weapons should work on shadow creatures

Would it be possible to draw letters directly on to tiles? Then instead of having to create a tile for every letter of the alphabet you can simply have a few background tiles onto which the alphanumerics are drawn.

This has probably been posted before but it needs stressed ! More inventory sorting ! sort by stack size, weight, alphabetically, and auto-sort by type (tomes, weapons/armors/potions/scrolls/reagents/quest/misc)

Make it so shadowkin can hide (rogue skill, not their racial thing) even when wearing gold or other light sources. Instant reason to actually use that race, and actually kinda makes sense in magical terms (they're just that shifty, they can hide even when glowing!)

+1 Great idea, shadowkin are pretty underplayed, this would be a great way to make them a bit more versatile and worth while.

IMHO way tooo OP... this would make them way too good... Egg changed Shadowkins and with their new racialas bonuses they are preety good

for me not a good idea

So thats where we draw the line? Not 10x dmg for backstab, not 1/2 dmg taken for fighters with tank stance, not monks being able to avoid damage completely. But a rogue that can wear a gold ring is just "way tooo OP"?

3 Ideas:

1- A food that is super filling, ie, slows hunger effects by 25%.This would help with crafting or skills in general, outside of combat.

2- Make a blueprint for a khaki potion, purchaseable for a small amount of crystal coins.

Vermillion armor (craftable with a blueprint, purchased in the crystal coin shop) that provides flame resistance, perhaps 25%.

very interesting - how would it stcak up, say, vs blackrock? (which has +%25 def)

- interesting too as there are no resistance boosters other than food atm ... perhaps too specialised?

I imagine vermilion armor could have less physical def than br, but fire resistance would be advantageous against certain mods.

Well, the way I see it, there are only 3 resistances worth having atm - fire, lightning, and perhaps some sort of blood resistance.

I would imagine that flame resistance could be helpful when you can't mr resist a mob. Dragons, for instance, would be less of a threat if VF wasn't so powerful.

Perhaps make 25% for the first vermilion piece, and 5-10% extra resistance for additional pieces.
