Grace Xisthrith -> House Guards: Staff Question (7/7/2024 20:29:45)
|
Briefly, I'm hoping to ask how much work making a boss into a house guard is. I'm a big fan of house gauntlets -- although I'm too stingy to make one for myself, for now at least : p --, and I'd love to see them have more variety in terms of bosses.
That being said, we pretty rarely get house guards. So, I wanted to ask, how much work is it to make a house guard? If it's easy, and just a copy paste job from monster code into house item code, then I'd love to advocate for house guards being added to every release with a boss. While not everyone would want to add a praetorian juggernaut (random recent example) to their house gauntlet, having the choice to would be awesome. Big story bosses, like Pestilence and Entropy might reasonably be excluded, but I'd encourage they be thrown in as well. If they can be beaten in a story quest, they can be beaten in a gauntlet.
That being said, if it is a hassle to make a monster into a buyable house guard, I'd love to know. In that case, the effort of making praetorian juggernaut (random recent example) into a house guard might not be worth the time it takes.
If it's not a hassle to do it in future releases though, would it be notably harder to go back into older releases and add house guards there too? I keep track of releases somewhat regularly, and we don't usually get more than one or two bosses a month, so if it's a very quick job boss to house guard process, I'd be happy to provide a list of every boss in the last year or two, with their location, and monster number / ID.
Thanks for your time staff and or knowledgeable players :)
