Now all we need

[Munchkin9]

Well I'm right impressed with how far this mod has come. I was there at the beginning *sniff* briefly. Reminiscing aside.

Now all we need is for the skill of a weapons forger to influence the stats of the weapons, allow them to set the price of their weapons, and allow their skills to a virtual infinity. Then the best blacksmith in the land would be sought after and would have to work hard to keep his spot as the best.

And when I say "all we need"... well not quite. But that's all for now.

Keep up the good work.

And what is supposed to influence the skill of the blacksmith?

 

[Armie_knock]

You should maybe be able to level up, and/or instead of the game making it itself, you have to press some buttons, better timing- better weapon. 

 

[Eragon91]

I'm not sure this is even implementable, nor that it's needed. If however, Vornne thinks that the challenge would be fun i'm sure that he could make it neat.

It should ofcourse be balanced. The difference should be in max 4-5 dmg, to avoid breaking the game.

Maybe but what if the guy that makes good weapons isn't online :O I think maybe this is delving too deep into things, not sure I'd like this.

I think everything is complex enough as it is.

I think everything is complex enough as it is.

I agree.

 

[Ser Orindell]

I disagree that things are complex enough as it is, but I also think that this is a bad idea.

Vornne has said on a number of occasions that "I don't like the "MMORPG" style" (His words exactly). I think there is enough grinding as it is, without introducing a silly levelling system for weapon making. If anything, one of the main appeals of PW is that allows for Roleplay/Semi-persistent gameplay without forcing people to invest too much time before they can get going.

Not to mention, there are few enough engineers at the moment. Nothing should be done that could make being an engineer less enjoyable.

Long Iron Bar + Silver Bar = Tempered Great Sword
Long Iron Bar + Gold Bar = Masterwork Great Sword

Long Iron Bar + Silver Bar = Tempered Great Sword
Long Iron Bar + Gold Bar = Masterwork Great Sword

Actually that sounds good, although I doubt anyone will will use 70,000 worth of gold bar just to make one sword lol.

 

[Rasorath]

Long Iron Bar + Silver Bar = Tempered Great Sword
Long Iron Bar + Gold Bar = Masterwork Great Sword

Is that an actual combination, or is it a suggestion?

 

[Troubles]

Long Iron Bar + Silver Bar = Tempered Great Sword

Suggestion.

 

[Armie_knock]

Suggestion.

EDIT: Deam you ninjad me.

 

[Eragon91]

Not a bad suggestion though. If someone would be willing to pay an engineer to make it, i don't see a reason not to have it. Except for that it might require more items added to the game, which Vornne sais may increase lag.

 

[Holgard]

I like that "Masterwork" GS thing. I believe a Sword of War, would be a better alternative though

It's my favourite weapon because it allows me to backpedal and spam more effectively. heh.

 

[Munchkin9]

I agree with the no grinding thing. I was going more on the assumption that these skills would naturally level up as you make the weapons, which you will. so its more of a bonus to doing it. hopefully making it more enjoyable

I like the extra recipes except that it adds more complexity...

 

[Ser Orindell]

In truth, rather than better versions of current weapons, I'd prefer just the addition of more weapons if anything was going to be added.

 

[Armie_knock]

Everyone will just buy the best, none different. if you have to make the weapon yourself/buy from a person, it makes it more.. complex.

 

[Ser Orindell]

At the moment, people don't just "buy the best", they buy what best suits their class and play-style. New weapons would hopefully mean a broadening of play-styles.
