New Set Ideas

Post by Griffinheart » Thu Aug 08, 2002 4:13 am

HA, 54X (and the rest of the New Dawn Staff)! You said no one reads through the entire read me, but I did! In it somewhere (not sure where, I skimmed fast, looking for cube recipes:D) you asked for new set ideas...I didn't find anywhere, however, where you told us to stop... :)

Here's my idea for a set:

"Division of the Tribe"

Martial Discipline- Ring
15% increased damage, 20% increased attack speed, 20% crushing blow, 30% open wounds, 7% life leach, +10 magic damage

Nature's Affinity- Ring
Slows target by 20%, +1-50 fire damage, +1-50 cold damage, +1-50 lightning damage, 5% life leach, 5% mana leach, 56 charges lvl 8 Raven

Bul-Katho's Choice- Amulet
+1 all skills, 20% increased life, 15% faster attack speed, 25% chance to cast lvl 9 Hydra when struck, 100% chance to cast lvl 7 Charged Bolt when struck (+2 skills as one of the set bonuses)

Fiacla-Gẻar's Decision- Amulet
+1 all skills, 15% faster cast, +30% resist all, 25% chance to cast lvl 9 Armageddon when struck, 100% chance to cast lvl 7 Twister when struck (+2 skills as one of the set bonuses)

And, then some set bonuses...yadda yadda.

I know what you're thinking...two amulets! You can't wear the whole set! But, that's the point...the set represents how a part of the berzerker tribe split off to become the shamans. You make a decision of whether you side with the shamans or beserkers.

The partial set bonuses for three pieces would be similar to the full set bonuses of other sets (so, you're not losing anything by "not having the complete set").

Tell me what you think. 8) (Another set in the works, for better or worse)

The man deserves a medal. I congratulate you on reading the entire readme :mrgreen:

I don't really need more set ideas now though, but thanks anyway :)

:( I feel so used...

But, oh, well. I'll get over it (as long as there's a new version soon)!

P.S. Sorry for the signature text, copied and pasted bad.

I know...You promised a new version...and we're waiting patiently. :)

God speed and thanks for making the best mod anywhere.

P.S. This almost seems like our private message board, 54x. No one else posts here ;)

Well, I guess this post is dead now that no new sets are needed :D

But, what do you mean by secret experience areas?

I think he means like how the AR mod has a 99 level dungeon in the Blood Raven area. You can go there in the beginning of the game but you won't be strong enough to beat it until the end of the difficulty. I think it's a good idea and you should include something like that in NS. Kinda like a cow level but better.

You got the idea. But realy in A:TFW the secret tunnels have plenty of easy monsters that give tons of exp. It's just too good. Don't make it so good in NDX or NS.

For a new set there should be a set of 4 or so charms. Rare but powerful. Can it be done?

*chuckles*

We had something like that way before, but it eventually started causing bugs so I dropped it.

It had drops like NDX has now, except back then drops were otherwise largely unaltered :)

Was quite cool.
