Primate Murder -> RE: Primate Murder's Suggestion Thread (11/11/2020 2:45:16)

Since the Halloween war is coming to an end and I wanted to do something for werepyre paladins anyways...

Fluff: There are few areas that need the services of the Paladin Order more than Darkovia. Unfortunately, the variety of curses infecting the forest's inhabitants (including the paladin Coeuraservi himself) leave them ill-suited for wielding holy weapons. Darkovian Armaments were crafted specifically to countermand that weakness, combining the werepyre's curse with the full might of paladin magic. That, on its own, might not be enough to reclaim Darkovia from the grip of the shadow... but it's a start.


Hallowed Armaments
A light mini-set with a focus on undead-slaying and hybrid stats.


Hallowed Tenacity

Melee/Magic light hammer
0-proc
-3 bth lean.

MC: Uses Str, Int and Luck for stats.

Effect: Gain a stacking 2.5% damage boost each time you hit the monster. The next time you miss a hit, you loose (x/.15)% melee hp, where x is your current boost; this resets your boost to 0.

Appearance: A gnarled wooden branch gripping a tombstone.
Description: A large hammer, perfectly suited for crushing a variety of undead foes and enchanted with paladin magic that makes you stronger with every hit. The enchantment is not without its downsides, though – should you fail to hit your foe, the magical backlash will strike at your own curse!


Hallowed Radiance

Light shield
MRM is low, but focuses on Magic.

Effect: Looses 3 MRM. Against undead, you use the shield's Light resist for all eight elements. (shield version of paladin's Unwavering passive)

MC: Gain (y * 10/1.4)% light Backlash, where y is the number of light spells you have in active inventory. Monster can resist (MainStat/Luck vs Cha/Luck) with +10 bonus to save, or -20 penalty if it's undead.

Appearance: A gnarled wooden shield with softly glowing runes.
Description: A shield of light and shadow, capable of adapting to any undead foe. Its power resonates with your own light magic, punishing your enemies for every injury they deal to you!


Hallowed Ground

Light element spell.

Does no damage, but has the following effects:

- Monster is inflicted with light Burn (power: 1) until the end of the battle. Monster can resist (MainStat/Luck vs End/Luck) with -5 penalty to save.

- Monster is inflicted with EleVuln (+10% light damage taken) until the end of the battle. Monster can resist (MainStat/Luck vs Cha/Luck) with -5 penalty to save.

- You gain Str and Int (50 * MonsterLightRes each) for 2 rounds.

MC: If your foe is undead, you also gain 4 Defiance charges (for lvl 10 paladin skill).

Cost: 50% melee sp + 50% melee mp + 25% melee hp (50% if Int>Str). Against undead, the sp and mp costs are halved. (calc: 12.5% spell damage downtrigger = 25% melee, so a trigger is worth 50%).

Appearance: Permanently changes the background to an old cemetary, lit by moonlight,
Description: Consecrate the ground with your blood, enhancing your combat abilities while assaulting both body and anima of your foe. If the enemy is undead, the spirits of paladins past will even help you shoulder the ritual's cost!

Primate Murder -> RE: Primate Murder's Suggestion Thread (12/30/2020 12:48:30)

The Book of Whispers
A dark/ice tome with Sleep effect triggers.

When attacking, select one of the following:

Army of Horrors*

- If you don't have Gathering Horrors status, you gain it (power:1.9). The status' power increases by 0.1 each time you cast a dark, ice or neutral spell (that is not Army of Horrors).

- If you have Gathering Horrors status, it is consumed and you cast a 4-hit spell at -5 bth lean, with each hit randomly using ice or darkness element. The spell gains *(1.1 * GHPower) modifier to damage. (basically, you deal 380% damage if you cast them back to back, 400% if you cast a spell in between, 420% if you cast two spells, etc, and gain *1.1 bonus for non-allied elements).

Monster can wake up at the beginning of it's turn (Int/Luck vs Cha/Luck) with +0 bonus to save. When it wakes up, it gains Berserk (-20 bth lean) for two rounds and celerity.^

Efficient spell, so costs 60% mp of a standard one.

Overcharged spell, so costs 4/3 of a standard one.

Dreamcatcher****

MC effect is a trigger against Sleeping monsters:
- Army of Horrors. The status' power increases by 0.15 instead of 0.1.
- Sweet Dreams. If the monster is already Asleep when you cast the spell, it deals only 1 hit (2.2% melee), but the power of the Nightmare status increases to 20.

When you say the Necrotic Minion is a pet, do you mean a guest?

One too many knights in the pool, eh.




Primate Murder -> RE: Primate Murder's Suggestion Thread (3/22/2021 1:02:46)

Effect: Whenever Koschei is inflicted with an immobilizing status, he consumes the effect to restore sp and gains Berserk (-20 bth lean) for 3 rounds.****

Stage End: When Koschei is reduced to 0 hp for the first time, his horse dissolves into smoke, while the man himself falls onto the ground. From his body grows a large oak with a chest hanging on its branches with chains of gold; the time changes to sunset (background change). Koschei rises from the tree's roots, shorter and thinner than before.*****

***Koschei pushes you off-balance and acts again while you're recovering!
****Koschei grows enraged at your attempts to chain him!
*****...You really should have expected that from a guy called 'the Deathless.'


Stage Two

Enchanted Winds status is replaced with Water of Life. Description: The enchanted waters of Buyan isle are said to possess powerful restorative properties, even capable of bringing the dead back to life! Effect: You gain a temporary healing spell. It costs nothing except your turn and deals 1 hit of Heal element worth 50% damage of a standard spell. In addition, the first time you die during the battle, you're brought back to life with 25% MaxHP and the status is removed.*

*The waters of Buyan bring you back to life, but doing so drains all their mystical power!

Koschei the Deathless

Appearance: A short and skeletal old man leaning on a crooked wooden staff.

Dark element monster
Resists: -200 Water, -100 Darkness, 100 to everything else
Fairly low MRM with a focus on Magic.

Stats: Int, End and Luck.

Attack:

- If you're not inflicted with Sglaz and Koschei has enough sp, he makes a 0 damage darkness attack that inflicts Sglaz for 2 rounds. Sglaz combines Mindlock, Fragile (-50 End) and Poison (dark, power: 5).** You can resist the effect (Int/Luck vs your Cha/Luck) with -20 penalty to save.

- If you're inflicted with Sglaz and Koschei has enough mp, he makes a high-damage darkness attack.

- If he lacks either sp or mp, Koschei hits the earth with his staff to regain sp and mp.

Effect: Koschei is permanently inflicted with Master Enchanter status, reducing all damage taken by 80%. The status is removed for one turn after he makes the mp attack.

Stage End: When Koschei is reduced to 0 hp again, his body falls and rapidly decays into a skeleton. The chest (on the oak) opens up and a rabbit hops out, dissolving into a pool of liquid darkness that consumes both the skeleton and the tree, as the sun sets and the moon rises (background change). Koshei's skeleton rises from the waters with an entire undead army.

**Koschei's curse shatters your body, mind and spirit!

Final Stage

Water of Life status is replaced with Exhaustion. Description: You've been fighting all day and all night. Effect: Make a save (End/Luck vs End/Luck) at the beginning of every turn with +0 bonus. If you fail, your sp is set to 0 for one round.*

*The fatigue takes its toll on you.

Koschei the Deathless

Appearance: A crowned skeleton stands in a pool of dark water with 4 groups of smaller skeletons before him.

Water element monster
Resists: -200 water, the rest are hidden; at the end of every turn Koschei's resistances (except water) are scrambled, and Koschei takes and deals *1.1 damage
Low MRM.

Stats: Int, Cha and End.

First round: Koschei consumes all mp to summon 4 minions (each a group of 3 skeletons).

Attack:

- Minion army 1 (wields maces): Earth damage, inflicts Daze (100% chance of inaction for 1 round). You can resist (Cha/Luck vs your Dex/Luck) with +0 bonus to save.

- Minion army 2 (wields skimitars): Wind damage, inflicts Bleed (power: 0.3) and Disease (hp, power=Bleed damage). You can resist (Cha/Luck vs your End/Luck) with +0 bonus to save.

- Minion army 3 (wields staves): Fire damage.

- Minion army 4 (wields tridents): Water damage, inflicts Drowning (renamed Panic, -30% damage). You can resist (Cha/Luck vs your Cha/Luck) with +0 bonus to save.

- Koschei: Harm damage, removes all status effects from self except for Freedom and Still Waters. If he has enough, Koschei consumes 20% MaxMP to heal remaining Minions.

Effect: Freedom.

Effect (Koschei only): Each time Koschei takes damage, he gains an equal amount of mp. If mp bar becomes full, Koschei resummons all Minions with full health.

Effect (Koschei only): Still Waters (power: 1/4 Koschei's MaxHP). After dying a third (and every subsequent) time, Koschei reduces one of his remaining Minions to 1 hp and regains hp equal to (Still Waters * Minions Remaining). If Koschei has no Minions left, the battle ends.

Stage End: All the liquid gathers into a single dark egg. Koschei turns into a raven, grabs the egg and flies away.

Lagohm Reactive Armor

FO energy armor
Fairly high MRM with a focus on Melee
1-hit attack at -3 bth lean.

MC effect is a skill: Reactive Rush.

Necroquest

Sample mechanics for the upcoming Necromancer class quests. Note: Presumes that the enemy is hostile Mantle necromancers and the undead they raise, whether they're attacking the base you're setting up or you're raiding one of theirs.

Quest Start

Fight 4 undead monsters. Each monster has Overflowing Anima status (+45 MRM, -20 bth Berserk and Freedom).

Your enemies hide from your sight, attacking with remote-controlled puppets and marionettes. Can you persuade the local spirits to locate them? Make a Cha roll.

- On success, proceed to the boss with Initiative Bonus (+105).

- On fail, fight 2 more monsters and make another save with reduced difficulty, but no Initiative Bonus. Repeat until you succeed or fight 12 monsters.

You don't get any heals inbetween the fights,* but for the duration of the quest you gain a temporary Drain Power spell.** It's qc, 1/turn and has no cost. Make a save (Int/Luck vs VStat) with +0 bonus. If you succeed, you heal 10% Max hp and mp, and your foe looses Overflowing Anima status for the rest of the round.

Additionally, for the duration of the quest you gain Burial Grounds status. Description: Graveyards are your home ground, willingly absorbing the excess energy from your spells. Effect: Each time you cast a spell, it reanimates 1, 2 or 3 skeletons to attack the monster, dealing 50%, 100% or 150% melee respectively.

Fight the boss (necromancer or undead that acts as a transmitter). Has 2 undead minions, but each successful Drain Power save reduces a minion to 0 hp.

*No Rest for the Wicked!
**Drain power from your foes to restore hp and mp!


Quest End

Dead of the Knight

Darkness shield
High MRM with a focus on Melee.

Effect: You take +(10/1.4)% damage from monster attacks. Each time you heal hp, the monster makes a save (Cha/Luck vs Cha/Luck) with +10 bonus to save. If it fails, it takes Harm damage equal to 50% of the amount you healed. (calc: 5% melee = 10 HealRes, so 10%=20, /0.4 for save)

MC: Click on the shield to summon Dead Knight guest (mp upkeep).

- Guest deals 50% damage, but each time the monster attacks, it makes a save (Cha/Luck vs Cha/Luck) with +10 bonus. If the monster fails, the attack looses 45 bth.

- The guest has *1.3 upkeep, but you have (Blocks/HitsAttempted)% chance to gain a charge each time you block a hit. Once per turn, you can click on the DK to consume a charge for one of two qc effects: Channel Anima or Consume Anima. Channel Anima makes the Dead Knight guest deal 5x damage for one round. Consume Anima gives you a hit of Heal damage worth 91.8% melee. (calc: 60*0.3=18% melee, /0.15=120% bonus; *0.9 and *0.85 for healing)

Appearance: An old wooden shield. The guest is an undead knight atop a zombie horse.
Description: This ancient shield can summon the spirit of its past owner!
