That which was shall never be again

What do you do with a drunken sailor?!?

That would be a totally awesome idea! I would probably make it more of a pact type of summoning than just a pure transportation summons. Like tge caster gets some passive benefits for pacting with a specific demon and can summon the player when online with a decently long cooldown. This could be pretty overpowered if multiple demon summons is possible. The caster would potentially instantly double, or more, their fighting power with the summoning. Being able to summon a squad of players to your location would be just broken. Although, this could be offset by strict requirements to summon and a lengthy cast time, or perhaps a sizable manz upkeep.

I am not sure that demons would actually benefit from this summonings. According to a spotlight they already are better at world hopping than the other races so while the lack of debuffs from the summons could be useful, if the demon is restricted too much to the proximity of the summoner it could be difficult to find demons for the summoning. A mechanicto incentivize the demon would likely be important.

I love how this thread is an actual discussion and not just stupidly arguing for permance or a specific game mechanic they like but actually taking the time to respond to others and defend their ideas.

A slow change over time sounds tge best to me. It will be difficult to balance consequences with freedom, but if done well could be an absolutely wonderful part of the game.

Yippin kai ya oh!

I assume there will be some way to move materials between planets so that crafters can get the raw materials, but I doubt it will be easy.

@Prometheus Thats for all the clarifications

Hey poeples

@fibs That is true, but attributes are one of the only character parts that is set first at creation. Skills and takents are developed as you play the game, so I think it should be more difficult to reset attributes than skills.

Can’t wait for the next spotlight!

Assumming of course that gear needs to be repaired or enchanted. Its entirely possible that it can only be enchanted or otherwise enhanched during creation. Also, I don’t know if item durability is a confirmed thing yet

Yeah, even things like outposts will still need a general store or blacksmith for repairs. Partly it depends on exactly how big the worlds are and how quickly people can travel.

@finland Yes, i know. I can definitely see auction houses in big cities, but smaller towns or even roadside inns will need something different.

I was thinking of players setting up individual shops and the owner could sell items or buy specific ones, such as crafting materials, from other players without the shop owner needing to be online or directly interacting with the other players. Like setting a list of things they are willing to buy with prices. I mean, crafters won’t really want to spend time waiting around for people to come buy or sell to them. Particularly if crafting is highly specialized.

It would be good to have a npc shop keeper that player crafters could hire. Also, it would be good if the shop keepers could set prices for typical items that people could sell to the store. It will be interesting if crafting services like repair or upgrades takes time.

@fibs Of course they need to retain the same limitations as at character creation, otherwise everyone would want to reset their attributes instantly.

I would like something similar to a planeswalking demon. Some race that is good at traveling between the planets and across distances with a higher movement speed. That said, I don’t know if there are race specific skills and not just attribute affinities. If there are no racial skills then this suggestion might be more of a visual change than anything.

I use Norton and don’t have any issues with this site.

If there is an in game way of resetting attributes it should be quite difficult, and perhaps with some penalties, so that it would not be an easy decision for people. Perhaps some sort of debuff to the increased attribute for awhile? Like a sort of adjustment period.
