Boss poll

Posted: Wed Apr 30, 2008 11:42 am

Yeah just damage/on hit variations on boss weapons was what i was thinking. The completly random items could be dropped by regular spawns in very dangerous areas... or found in chests in those very areas if you are planning something of the sort. Like someone suggested in another thread i'd rather have a sort of gauntlet to get to the boss instead of running in circles to spawn it, with gauntlet i mean something like shadow plane =P, problem is pvping at those places might be hell because of the mobs.

I want to encourage pvp by making a poiint system sorta more of a prize system. For every kill you get an item dropped in back of inventory and then x number of that item can get you access to the boss weaps without having to farm them...would that be acceptable as well?

Seraph, Only one or two current boss weapons have random damage....

Greataxe +6 has 2d10 magic and 2d6 posi, div, or neg, when it spawns.

Sveinn warhammer is either 2d8 cold/2d8 divine or 2d8cold/2d8magic.

I am making all my weapons in the toolset, so you can easily look at them all.

So the consensus is one (meduim/small) or two (large) dmges on weapon and leave room for stones? I can do that.

If your script works, then this works well and new boss weps dont need to be so uber to keep up with otto axes and such.....

One problem still remains, (mebbe), is dopk weapons Very Happy

. but I think they will be ok left to people who farmed them already...... but dopk racks need to be disabled for sure.

i agree that those that have them can keep them but the racks should be disabled.

how the options should work morgoth is as follows

IF the weap has an on hit option and is small/medium its max dmg cap is 20 (-4 because of on hit) and you would want to put 8 of a dmg type on the weap.

IF is large weap then max is 32 dmg (-4 again from on hit) and you would want to put one dmg of 8 and one of 12 on it. MAYBE only one dmg period so they can decide on other two but i personally say put 2 on it.

IF no on hits are present in that version that is dropped it will have. (small/medium) = 24 dmg max and a 12 mod on it. (large) = 36 cap and two 12 dmg types on it.

So weapons with onhit need lower than max dmg? maximum? or can they use stones?

Ok I am off to sleep, but the way I making the features on these weapons is to make them wanted above a full rare dmg dopk weapon....

Add a new boss weapon or two and leave major changes alone until ... the majority of players feel comfortable with you doing that ... it's warranted ... or there's a wipe ... or something. It's not broken so why the

are you trying to fix it? What the

is broken with current weapons that requires you to stick your destructive

hands in it? FIX WTF IS BROKEN (do we need to start a list for you?) AND LEAVE WHAT HAS BEEN WORKING THE

ALONE.

Speaking of which - Arres does not seem to have a very high approval rating. I'm sure I don't either but I'm not

anything up but this thread - worst case. Can his ass and stop

with major poop that aint broken before you wind up following his lead - right off the side of a steep cliff.

An obvious observation here is that - though morg, seraph and arres know/do some scripting - they're not the best candidates to be making such drastic unwarranted decisions as discussed in this thread.

Damage is already being done by them ... I still have people asking me where the

warlord gear is and how the

to get to it. I wasted 6 hrs trying to get there myself before a dm ported me to it. Is the path still

broken?

I never touched the warlord room. Im still trying to find it myself. It had been at caverns of chaos as you all know but that map was deleted. I dont know why but im pissed off trying to find it. I know the connecter map is in the ud but the door has a transition to a place i cant find anywhere. SOOOOO if anyone knows the name of the room its in now please be awesome and tell me before I get blamed for having this happen.

Arres is the one that moved it and arres if you read this please tell me where you put it because this is really pissing me off.

I was told it was in elven crack.....so i dont know.

I think these new weapons will be nice if there was a guaranteed way to make it hard to achieve them. I am currently working on some team boss battles and will hope some of these weapons go into them.

Linux, act your age mang...

I tell it how it is Ness. Look what's going on here - they're sitting here contemplating how they're going to royally

dex up the ass while there are still severe bugs that they've known about for quite some time now and have not even attempted to fix. And I guess the results of the poll makes no

difference either. Dex's voice has been heard but they somehow feel that it doesn't matter what the players want.

We want you to leave our poop alone. And your new

boss weapons but leave what we got the

alone - you got that? Can it be put any clearer?

hmmm lets see i believe you are the only person complaining. I fixed everything for the update later. Id like to see what severe bugs you are talking about because some of the biggest players sure dont know about them. And dul amien epic forge is not where the warlord shop is. That map wouldnt transfer across from the cep mod. Thats why it stayed in the caverns of chaos. Now its disappeared. im looking for it.
