Title: Steroids
Post by Everlast on 01/16/04 at 01:47:54
Wondered if there's any chance of adding pots that enhance stats.  There could be different combos or something that change diff. sets of stats diff. ammts. and such.  I would say not allowing them with ehance/rf/hm, or something like that.

Just thought they might help when ppl want do things without clerics.

Also a pot that made you gain 1/2 extra stam for the next 2 rounds would be cool (it would be like blessed haste only a pot, or better than the spell)

These pots could be rare drops in some places around the game.  I would suggest making them 1/50 drops on all sorts of things.  Monsters dropping cool items would make the game more intresting, especially if skeletons dropped things that were like Consecrated Embrace, just make it a rare drop.


Sorry if this seems un-organized, I was typing off the top of my head.

The use of steriods, is publically and internationally condemned by the International Athletics Board and therefore any partaking in this event or the use of such anabolic enhancement agents is completely banned.........


But we aint them so

Gaddy's not a n00b.. I'm sure he's aware of the jag pot. The new stam pot would be a toned down version of the jag pot for those of us that don't want to drop 1 mil for a pleasant 30 seconds.. I like the idea of some new pots.

Maybe not Stamina pots but Str, Dext, Intel, wisdom, Const, Char Elixir's would be good they would increase your stats  by 3 points each.. Str Elixir= +3 str, Etc.

Seems very overpowered even if it costs alot. It would need to be balanced out by another stat that was relevant but I don't like the idea at all.

Well maybe the +3 pots would be too much how about plus 1str pot, +1 dext pot, +1 wis pot etc. they cost 200k each pot and last for a min. They can Be sold in Varrious locations
Difficult to find locations. and they also can be dropped by bosses/monsters.

umm...i was not thinking 3 str really.  Though more like +1 to 2 stats, such as +1 to wis and int for 20-80 secs.  They would be nulled by enhancing spells from a cleric, so as not to make it like a super modification.  I would suggest that none of them involve dex seeing as there is plenty of it anyway.  Skill is not something you would gain by taking drugs.

If pots like that are overpowered i think clerics are also, i get +6 str or something like that for a good while from 1 spell.

The idea is for these pots to be dropped by monsters rarely, not to be sold.

ok lets try this

bare with me I suck at math and english so please no comments on that....


if
hp = >=3
and
str = >=3
and
Drug = >=1

then

hp+str = y
drug+str=x

then
-y from hp for x amount of time

And as Dexterity is about being dexterous, not skill, that isn't a problem.

Dexterity is basically skill, don't quote 1 small section of what i post and try to give me nuts you noob ass little pregnant dog.  Stop going on post and trying to give people nuts about things.

The point is that dex wouldn't be in a potion if i were making it.

I thought it'd be cool to have them added so that they were rare drops around the map, i would probably just use them right then to train with or just out of good fun.

I don't understand what your equation is suppose to be suggesting?

Is it that your hp determines how long the potion lasts?

rofl, Dexterity isn't skill. Dexterity is, suprisingly, how dexterous you are. Hence the name 'Dexterity' and not 'Skill'. It does have a small reference to skill, but only with ''Skill and grace in physical movements''. If it's skill like that, then you can easily improve it with drugs. After all, you can improve your 'skill' with an amulet, so why not drugs?

I wasn't trying to give you nuts, I was merely correcting you. It doesn't matter if you're wrong, everyone is some times. The difference is though, most people can accept it. You just go 'apenuts' - for lack of a better word - and start trying to flame me, which by the way, was a pathetic attempt.

You take 1 sentence out of a post and try to modify it, and you are still wrong, dex is basically skill.  Skill of movement is still skill, is it not?

The point of having no potion to increase it is simply because too many people think dex is almighty god of nightmist, and i dont think anymore of it should be availible, at least not from a potion.

My "pathetic attempt at flaming you" was my way of saying **** off because i dont care to have people sit on forums trying to correct my word usage, you're not my english teacher, don't try to be.

rofl, Dexterity isn't skill. Dexterity is ---- ''Skill and grace in physical movements''. quote]

And grace in physical movements is not that much to say dex isnt skill.


Anyway, this wont be added to game.  If you find anymore need to give me lecture me just memo Gaddy because im sure ppl dont want to read though a little more fighting on forums.
