Title: a better variety of equipment
Post by Shadow EX on 10/18/03 at 16:17:28
I think that there should be a whole lot more equipment out there.. there isnt much right now.  I could think of tons of new armor and weapons off the top of my head right now and i would be glad to give suggestions if you want.   Im also thinking effect weapons.  Like you hit this person for 50 damage but an effect comes in and hits them for another 25 damage something like that.

Take for instance:

Thornblade

base damage: 40 -- Wielder takes 7% damage dealt -- Effect:  Thornwhip -- Does 20 damage

something like that.. i can think of plenty of armors and such as well .. just tell me if you want some suggestions. ;D

Acctually when you said a better variety of weapons I thought you meant like

Instead of JUST a pike, or blade of honor, or justice blade or whatever there were like... 5-6 weapons to choose from each weapon upgrade... Cause that would be pretty cool, you could have a slightly customized character in terms of gear.

:D

ummm....how a bout lvling up weapons? say...you had a pike...it would be a level 1...then you get exp for it through training and a fraction of earned exp would go to it...heres an example of a lvlin system to ten for a staff

lvl 1=staff 0exp  1bd
lvl 2=spike staff 100exp(u would geta fraction of say 7exp=1wep exp) 5bd
lvl 3=quarterstaff 400 exp 8bd
lvl 4=flint spear 1000 exp 13bd
lvl 5=lance 1500 exp 17bd
lvl 6=guan do sword 2500exp 24bd
lvl 7=double ended staff 4000exp 25bd---attacks twice
lvl 8=staff of light 10000exp 30 bd
lvl 9=halbard 20000exp 40???bd(i cant remember)
lvl 10=mithril lance 100000exp 60bd

i will post stats and such for the weapons i made up...but its just an example tell me if u want the stats

EDIT:added base dam...and any affects item has

HalbErd should not be the best weapon... its just a bog standard weapon. Mithril = much rarer and stronger, so that should be higher up.

ok, rather than create all new weapons, but still adding variety, create new weapons, with same stats as old ones..ive noticed it around already

blade of honor = scimitar, just diff name

this wud add your variety, n of course, they are all kept to the same prices, etc? it wud just add that bit of color, while keeping effort to a minimum

juz a thought

or u can stuff the whole idea of new weapons, and people post things in this format

weapon name
description
what it matches

ie.

Jagged Knife
As you look over the surface of the blade, you notice all the chips and pieces missing along the edge, and the tip also appears to be missing, but leaving a very jagged, but deadly edge to the blade
Dagger of Shadows

then u get loads of diff weapons, without worry of making new unfair advantages

Edit: Typos
