I doubt anyone else would like this but I'll give it a try.

Library info for: Shadow Sling Shot:
Base Damage: 15, can be used by RANGERS, description: A magical sling shot crafted by a scientist from the future,  This sling shot has a small chance of taking a enemy out in one blow.  This sling shot is very rare, considering the scientist made very few, lvl needed to equip it: 28, magical: yes Armor: 0, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 0, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0,  damage: 0, Monster damage table: , Mana Leach:

well there was an attempt...

I don't really like the description. The whole 'scientist from the future creates a sling shot' doesn't appeal to me, sorry. Also, where would you get the item from? When creating an item, you also need to post where it would be found.. creating thems easy, its fitting them into the game that isn't.

well, because of its low attack some people may want to use the enchanted bow, but it has a chance of killing an enemy in one hit so that is why it could be better.

Hmm... where could it be found? or......... Bought?
You could just put it a store in a town and have an expensive weapon,

PS and the whole, scientist from the future i didn't think anyone else would like.

well I was thinking to if it couldn't be bought, maybe an alternate drop from the boss that drops Emerald dagger?
Title: Re: New ranger wep
Post by GoD_oF_bLaCk_DeAtH on 11/29/03 at 19:17:09

Why put a ranger drop on a boss only accessible to thieves?

hey, stotic, I was mis-informed about the ED, my friend told me anyone can go to it, so I said that , sorry.  I got some ideas from someone when I posted this topic in the "alternate boss drops".

Library infor for: Possesed Sling Shot
Base Damage: 18, can be used by RANGERS, description: A magical sling shot seems to be possesed by demons and infects whoever touches it.  This sling shot has a chance of taking a enemy out in one blow.  This sling shot is very rare, and whoever gets it is suspected possesed himself. The holder of this weapon slowly looses his life to the demons.  lvl needed to equip it: 28, magical: yes Armor: 0, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 0, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0,  damage: 0, Monster damage table: , Mana Leach:  

And, even though it may be a little much, I was thinking maybe the demonic general?

and the chance of one hit kills is 40-45 %? or if that is to high (which is probably is) then maybe 30-35%?
and also every 2-3 seconds you lose 1 hp, due to it being possesed.
Title: Re: New ranger wep
Post by darknessanddragons on 11/30/03 at 20:36:55
the loos hp is bad because yopu gain hp every 2-3 min.
Title: Re: New ranger wep
Post by GoD_oF_bLaCk_DeAtH on 11/30/03 at 21:49:00
why is that bad? lol.  its a strong weapon with a good effect so shouldn't it have a downside? at lvl 28 you have high HP so it will probably take 2-5 minutes to die so you will have to use lots of pots.  That takes down the power of the weapon a little bit.

5 Seconds loose 1 hp.

so technically, there is a chance, around 5.2% at 40% chance of 1 hit kills, that a ranger can kill 5 arch zerkers maxed out in hp....

seems a little overpowering IMO :-/

NOTE: Taken no biased views to this since i own many arch rangers anyway - but seems too overpowering
Title: Re: New ranger wep
Post by Stotic on 11/30/03 at 23:26:33
I think the fact that it's called a sling shot dillutes it extremely.
Title: Re: New ranger wep
Post by GoD_oF_bLaCk_DeAtH on 12/01/03 at 02:12:41
ok... how about 10% chance of killing and call it
Possesed Bow.

Title: Re: New ranger wep

hmm i can.. : )
how about...
Death's Bow
Title: Re: New ranger wep
Post by Sausage on 12/01/03 at 17:31:46
Or you could name it Evil Bow.

::)
Title: Re: New ranger wep
Post by Spekkio on 12/01/03 at 18:50:35
I always thought there should be a Rune Bow.

Library info for Rune Bow:
Base damage: 20, Can be used by: rangers, Description: Description coming soon - Spekkio., Level needed to equip it: 29, Magical: No, Vamparic: 0.45, Armor: 0, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 0, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0, Poison/30s damage: 0, Monster damage table: , Mana leech: .

It's been discussed before, and I think most people thought that a vamparic weapon would over power rangers.

Lol...  then wouldn't a CSotW over-power zerks?
Title: Re: New ranger wep
Post by GoD_oF_bLaCk_DeAtH on 12/02/03 at 00:58:53
evil bow, sounds good.  Whatever would make it happen :)

and the 5 second thing sounds more reasonable...
Title: Re: New ranger wep
Post by Dr. Rock on 12/02/03 at 08:25:45
lol...  Well i think you're on the right track with a new bow for rangers, no more powerful than a enchanted bow, or maybe equally powerful but in a different way.
Although i dont think this is the answer. Evil bow sounds like it was thought up in about 2 seconds, and 4.5 vamp on a ranger wep is insane. The possibility for it to kill someone in one hit might work if staff could program that, but i dont like the losing 1 hp every 5 seconds. Well thats my 26 cents  :P

Wasn't the sling shot created in between 500b.c. and 1000a.d.? And Nightmist is pretty much in the middle ages which is pretty close to that time. I think the idea would be great if it wasn't a sling shot but an Old timer Musket. I don't mean like today's guns but early pilgrims guns where you have to spend 2 mins. to load the rifle up and most of the time they miss. So how about you make a ranger weapon into an Iron Muskett that has a delay time (for reloading after one shot) by reducing the time for stam and the weopon takes up 2 stamina.
Title: Re: New ranger wep
Post by GoD_oF_bLaCk_DeAtH on 12/02/03 at 13:45:28
That was what my FIRST idea was, before I even made the topic so I totally agree with that.  But the thing that changed my mind is that if it is a gun, logically it would be more powerful than a bow and would have a higher base damage than 18, which I thought was a decent number concidering its effect.  I, personally, like Death's Bow, but whatever.  The gun sounded more appealing to me as the weapon, but not with this pacific idea.  You should try to create the weapon yourself. (the riffle), because I like it.
Title: Re: New ranger wep
Post by sayadin on 12/02/03 at 15:33:40
well the Iron Muskett has terrible shooting so maybe 1 out of 5 shots you will hit a person and does severe damage say about 75 damage per shot. Just the disadvantage of it is that is slows the rate of your stamina and takes up 2 stam per shot. It would be perfect and it would be very very rare.
Title: Re: New ranger wep
Post by GoD_oF_bLaCk_DeAtH on 12/03/03 at 01:59:50
cool. Sounds good, i put my vote on the iron musket too, but i put 2 votes on my wep  :)

Post by Kharybdis on 12/03/03 at 04:27:51
You've said yourself that Nightmist takes place roughly at some point in the middle ages, so how do you justify the existence of a gun?  Did a scientist from the future put it there?

To be technical, the first black powder weapon used was in the early chinese dynasty and they were fireworks and used to scare away enemies. But later they were created into cannons and cannon balls were used. Shortly after that the Handgun was finally made. Some Gunsman soon found out by putting a 4ft iron tube and putting it on an handgun stock, but longer. And if you asked why have a gun when its far ahead in the future then why is there Bikini's in the game? they could never really swim back in the day.

Maybe I overlooked it, but.... which weapon had 4.5 vamp?  Cause I know mine says 0.45... maybe that's what you ment.  In any case watch this *backspace backspace  0.25*  that wasn't so hard.  Now, does that mean it is perfect?



Sorry... I know this post has been dead for a couple days, but I haven't been on very much due to irl problems.
