The Eclipse of DOOM!
Hey there heroes!

This week, an eclipse has blocked out the sun over Falconreach... and of course, an undead army has followed! It's time for a war!

The undead alone would be bad enough... but it looks like they've been Doomed as well! What's going on?! Who could be behind all of this? Defend Falconreach in this week's WAR!

New cosmetic items will be available for Defender Medals at 50%!

Note: This war and its rewards (besides Defender Medals) will be permanent after its completion.


Also, presenting: Umbrabrand!

This awesome cosmetic weapon of unknown origin is available from the Eclipse of DOOM war town for 300 DCs! You can upgrade its appearance for 100 Defender Medals for each tier! After you upgrade it, you can click on it to change its appearance to a previous version as well.


Also this week, some bug fixes/adjustments!
  • Adjusted description of the Glaive of Eternal Peace and Savior's Spear to better clarify the lore behind it.
  • Fixed issue where giving a build/outfit the exact name of an item in your inventory would put it into the set (even if it wouldn't get equipped).
  • The Dragesvard button no longer appears in the Elemental Foothills part of the Book 3 Travel map after it has been rediscovered.

And that's all for this week! Enjoy the war, everyone, and stay healthy!



Paw printed, and tagged! ~Gingkage

Please dear God don't let this be another silly war made by Zorbak but instead let it be connected to the main storyline and Akanthus.



Flabagast -> RE: Friday, April 12th Design Notes: The Eclipse of DOOM! (4/13/2024 2:18:55)

Must be Friday the... 12th? Eh, close enough. I've been looking forward to using the Escelence drip for something.

spoiler:

Gotta say, Zorbak's head turn was delightfully smooth.



Rukaji -> RE: Friday, April 12th Design Notes: The Eclipse of DOOM! (4/13/2024 2:49:14)

First an amazing fight with Jaania, and now a war? DF team is spoiling me.



Sumbrosus -> RE: Friday, April 12th Design Notes: The Eclipse of DOOM! (4/13/2024 3:10:47)

I really like the artwork for this war's opponents. The undead and slimes look legitimately ghoulish, and the idea that the fog is coalescing into elementals at random intrigues me.
The idea of DOOM-infused undead reminds me of Black Winter, though, which was a particularly grim event in the DF storyline.
spoiler:

The best thing to come out of that was the Hero being able to make up - somewhat - for failing to rescue Serenity from her monstrous brother.


I know Zorbak looks like the most likely suspect, but I am choosing to reserve judgement for now. He could just have gotten a kick out of the increased Darkness-power granted by a full solar eclipse. It seemed to me like he was mellowing out just a little in recent years, too. He might be getting on a bit, as Moglins measure their lifespans.



Flabagast -> RE: Friday, April 12th Design Notes: The Eclipse of DOOM! (4/15/2024 20:18:41)

Wow, y'all have tearing through this one! I might not be able to get 500 waves lol.



Sumbrosus -> RE: Friday, April 12th Design Notes: The Eclipse of DOOM! (4/16/2024 0:32:41)

Why, were you saving up defender medals for something?

======

Edit: Well, that's the war!
spoiler:

I like that Zorbak is actually going through changes.

The scariest part of the epilogue (to me)? Cysero. Always Cysero.



Flabagast -> RE: Friday, April 12th Design Notes: The Eclipse of DOOM! (4/17/2024 4:03:38)

^ Nah, I just like to set goals for wars like these. Managed 400 this time though, which I'm happy with.

spoiler:

I forgot that Zorbak is technically a Guardian now. Points for trying I guess?



Sumbrosus -> RE: Friday, April 12th Design Notes: The Eclipse of DOOM! (4/17/2024 10:24:51)

^
spoiler:

Considering Zorbak feels dirty when he does a deed with good intentions, it was a very solid effort. All those skeletons, all that necromantic effort. I'd applaud him, really. ^_^

Not to mention the unintended side benefit: all of that DOOM's been drawn out into the open and dispersed. Better than to have it lurking around in dark corners.
