i think that there is a number of items for every faction like elf maybe a new bow or a robe..... | Fascinating.
Now, instead of just tossing out a "I think that...", could you give some more precise information?
Like an actual idea?
Coding various items is quite easy, but getting the inspiration to create something that isn't overpowered or useless is harder.
Would you perhaps buy an
• Elven Bow. (Cost of 10000 gold, 25 Logs, 5 Mercury, 5 Crystals and 2 Sulfur)
Required Level: 6
Durability: 55
A beutiful elven craft, with sharp and deadly precision.
Increases ranged damage by 10%.
Can be equipped onto back.
Repair cost: 7,600
? | BTW the resource is wood not logs | what i`m sayin that a number of items can be equiped onley elf or knights that can be won in hunts dules and depend on the faction skill level and those items Increases much to the player but cost a lot and it`s durability is about 40_50 | yep according to me durability could be increased of expensive items | well, here some ideas then, no proces or whaever, only as a suggestion
race specific items:
these should not be copies of existing items (so, no amulet of luck but cheaper for a race or so).
also the used slots should be important for when they take another no brainer item.
none of these items should increase critter count, they can only have effect in battle, but preferably taking on of a race spoecific strongpoint

Common items:
Ring of prosperity
doubles hunt gains (gold/ resources)
Ring of searching
doubles chance of finding artifacts on hunt | Just one problem.. there wil be no balance at all | Well,
dunno about balance, and also, it is just a couple of suggestions.
i think a lot of effects can influence the balance in a way that the old fashioned ways are not always as "old reliable" anymore, but that is something else than unbalanced if ye ask me.
to often everyone will play a certain race the same as anyone else, but a few new options due to these (kind of) items can change your whole way of playing.
keep in mind ye are sacrificning slots for artifacts with the basic parameters as well (amulet for luck, rings for luck and morale, weapon, shield, cloak) the most important slots are taken out and ye gain an effect for it with a chance to trigger.
and as far as i can see, all items play into a strongpoint of an army as it is now, so what is unbalanced? no suddenly tanking forestkeepers or powerhouse gremlins, just more shooting elves or casting magi, more gating demons and raising necro's, defensive knights and high powered casting dark elves.
these would be unbalancing if armies could cross combine them, but that is no option | Those are great ideas Mirz. I'd love to see some of them implemented. :)
Abdullah, see what I mean with "more precise information"? | I like the idea of faction-specific items, but you need to use proper grammer. It took me several minutes to read your post. The items should require a Faction level, and a combat level. |
