Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego

Hey there, heroes!

It's that spooky time of year again, when the magical town of Croft merges into Lore, and candy abounds! Last year, you met the Baleful Brothers, Al, Akaz, and M, who endeavored to kidnap humans who wandered into Croft and the surrounding areas aof Apsaydaaun. This year, you return to Croft and meet up with the Cauldron Sisters once more. Everything seems to be going well... Or is it?

[image]https://cms.dragonfable.com/df/images/SWOLLENEGOdn.png[/image]

Check out this year's chapter in the Mogloween Storybook!



Also this week, the inventory has received a major upgrade!

[image]https://cms.dragonfable.com/df/images/shownglow.png[/image]
  • Shown items will now be highlighted in green in your inventory.
[image]https://cms.dragonfable.com/df/images/filterbuttons.png[/image]
  • Filter buttons have been added to the inventory UI.
    • Clicking on the filters will show all of the items of that equip slot.
    • For example, clicking the weapon filter will show all weapons.
[image]https://cms.dragonfable.com/df/images/searchbar.png[/image]
  • A search bar has been added to the inventory UI.
    • Type in your search and click the search button or press enter to search.
    • There are two search filters that can be applied.
      • ~type (i.e. ~dagger) will show all daggers.
      • *element (i.e. *fire) will show all items of that element.
      • These can be combined for precise searches. (i.e. ~scythe *ice frost)
      • Order does not matter. (i.e. frost *ice ~scythe)
      • Capitalization does not matter (i.e. *Ice ~Scythe Frost)
    • Press the All (Backpack) filter to return to your full inventory.
  • Newly acquired items will attempt to be sorted into place in the inventory instead of appearing at the bottom.
  • The search bar has also been added to the Bank UI (although not the filter buttons.)
    • You can search your inventory as well as the bank.
Let us know what you think about the new changes and functionality!



Other changes/fixes:
  • The Scythe of the Unhallowed's special now has a 10% chance to activate, and lasts for 4 turns instead of 1.
  • The Character Page button has been removed from the options UI. You can still access your character page from the character list.


And that's all for this week!

spoiler:

Can we just, like, kill Bubble now please? I swear, that cat has caused more trouble then it's worth, and at this point the only reason I tolerate her antics is because killing their sister would make The Cauldron Sisters sad.




Primate Murder -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/19/2019 2:22:01)

@ above

I'm not entirely sure what you're blaming Bubble for. For one thing, she's a human (or, well, apsaydaauner) now. I'm, like 90% certain they're talking about Verly. Which is a combination of hilarious and horrifying.

For another, she's the only one of Cauldron Sisters who actually tried to fix the messes they leave - the cats, the creepy girls, the moglins; hell, she even purified Myx so that it no longer creates cursed candy! Granted, it was done in an overly dramatic "nobody understands me" fashion, but it was, in fact, more than the other three sisters did combined.




FDBlackKnight -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/19/2019 2:34:15)

The quest caught me off-guard . I was expecting more of a recovering scene , but then i heard the music and saw the monsters . That was real funny what you guys did and i loved that.




Jay -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/19/2019 3:13:31)

Loved the Mogloween release, it was very fun and comedic in true Mogloween fashion, but the real star of the show for me is the new inventory and bank searching feature. The amount of opportunities this opens and time this will save cannot be overstated. The filter buttons also make switching or showing certain gear very convenient without having to remember what certain items you are looking for are named. It also provides information we could not infer before such as determining the true element of accessories, resources, and other items without an element symbol, since ???, None, and Ebil are all lacking unique element icons. Quality of life updates such as this and the addition of resists to an item's info panel are my favourite additions!




Flabagast -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/19/2019 4:27:15)

^Hear hear! I don't have that much bag space, but I imagine this will be massive time saver for people with an arsenal in their backpacks!

As for the quest... It seems a lot of the people of Apsaydaaun lack a firm grasp of proper ethics don't they? Oh heck, I just realised something.
spoiler:

Akaz said he volunteered, did Verlyrus risk his livelihood to become human so that he could have a chance of being with Bubble? ;-;





Dratomos -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/19/2019 6:31:43)

Great Mogloween quest again, and the new inventory is amazing.




s_venom -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/19/2019 9:39:28)

The inventory is awesome and all, but would it ever be possible to sell stacks of the same item without needing to convert them into one item?




blowthemandown -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/19/2019 11:24:43)

I hope you ran this BGM by your lawyers, Dove.




megakyle777 -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/19/2019 11:25:14)

Primate: Truth be told, I forgot Bubble became human and also forgot Verly was a thing, so the moment they mentioned a cat I blamed Bubble based on the past where she was behind it like 30% of the time.

In the face of this incident, I will now put all of my Mogloween murderrage on Verly instead.




KittyKat Destroyer -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/19/2019 13:24:05)

Those enemies are some buff boys! Looks like the Hero's about to have a bizarre adventure. Also, that 'Take On Me' music caught me off-guard.

Reminder for everyone: Cats can cross the barrier between worlds. That might be an upcoming problem.

spoiler:

Al x Bubble




Roxas45 -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/19/2019 15:17:27)

Ao apparently I hadn't completed last year's halloween event... Hmm... :/

There is a glitch when you try destroying an item when you have a full inventory and wanna take a quest drop with you.
If you scroll, your entire inventory goes blank. Cant select anything, and the destroy button also disappears. :/





blowthemandown -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/19/2019 18:01:44)

Hang on, aren't Clawkin sentient? Not at all like bears or ravens.




Vaalirus -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/19/2019 18:22:40)

I'm sorry but did Akaz just imply that he used Verlyrus in the first of his experiments, which then also implies that Verlyrus is walking around in either in Lore or in Apsaydaaum as an angry buffed up flexing muscle cat man?

Because I'm both curious and terrified about what he looks like now. Though hearing that Verlyrus volunteered for this experiment it seems clear to me that he wanted to become human, or at the very least humanoid enough, to have a chance with Bubble romantically again from when she was still a cat and I doubt he's over her...which also might mean that he's probably look for her in the state he's in now...oh no

Thought I fixed this before release. Hm. I'm aware of this issue happening with the Temporary Item inventory too. I'll investigate it on Monday.

They are, but there are no Clawkin in this quest; only Bears, a Beaver, Cabits, Dirt Beetles, Ravens, Togs, and a Tuskmonger.




Phantasys -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/20/2019 0:22:41)

Well... playing through the enemies in this quest made my brain go "aiyayayaya!"
Like seriously, this quest just oozed Pillar Men vibes.




The Finnish Phoenix -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/20/2019 0:49:36)

Hopefully Akaz shares some of his candy.




Necromencer -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/20/2019 4:16:03)

Good lord everything was so wrong yet so right.




HORRIOR -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/20/2019 7:31:19)

I expect JoJo references in the next few weeks.




Silver Sky Magician -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/20/2019 15:41:36)

Would like to see buff Twilly and Zorbak as the next Inn challenges




elcidIII -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/20/2019 17:38:29)

wait what? how is transmuting animals into humans and then eating them worse than eating humans? am i missing something?

also, the fact that the previous update had a name very similar to a line from a certain song, and the next update had music as similar to that song as you can get away with is... amusing, to say the least.




The Finnish Phoenix -> RE: =DF= October 18th Design Notes: Mogloween 2019: Swollen Ego (10/20/2019 18:38:29)

Animals are people too.

Leaning towards picking up Scythe of the Unhallowed now considering it can potentially stack with Dragon Magic!!! for further boost shenanigans to bring our hero ever closer to Tog?'s bodybuilding prowess.

I believe the comparative that was being made was that eating animals transmuted into humans is worse than eating bodybuilder animals.

I don't recall if there were any Clawkin in this quest. Regardless, Akaz might not know that they're sentient (after all, we didn't for a long time), and even if he did, why would he care? He didn't have a problem with eating humans, the only reason he's even trying to find an alternative is because we told him to stop and caused problems for him and M when they wouldn't. We didn't tell him to stop eating all sentient creatures after all. Though given Akaz is trying to find a substitute for humans specifically, it's likely that other species, sentient or no, may not have the same appeal to them as humans do, which is why he's transforming the animals in the first place.
