my RP is just killing humans and beast(kin) and other demons.

How do you min-max an allergy?

There will be a best food in the game for a given character build and you'll want to reroll to be allergic to some other food that you'll consequently never eat.

what if food doesn't give buffs outside of replenishing the "you need to eat" bar.

@Jairone
how many do have them but are undiagnosed? I'm lactose intolerant and severely allergic to bananas. the banana and lactose were never diagnosed by a doctor but something I found/figured out along the way.

@codetsilon said in Mount Questions:

@jetah rng....something the devs once said they wont implement

I’m sure the subject wasn’t whether a mount could knock back or knows down. It was probably more about loot.

@wylte said in Allergy to various types of food.:

Yeah, no. No RNG weakness to a necessary resource. There would be an "optimal" allergy that everyone would just re-roll for, and it really wouldn't add anything even for a hardcore character. Just RP it if you want your character to die from peanuts.

How do you min-max an allergy?

so long as any mount can be trained to assist in combat, I'd be happy with perma mounts.

and by assist I don't mean to be a second player but to do a little damage-maybe some CC (like a 2 minute CD on it so it isn't OP). Horses can buck which could be a knockback or knockdown (maybe rng between the 2).

Eventually I'd love to see mounted combat. Calvary could be another set of skills to learn and could be a separate knowledge all together because you'd have to learn to do your thing but on a mount.

I was watching an anime and one theme was bringing technology to a past era. This time period didn't have stirrups! The protag gave them the design which made their calvary better than the opposing forces. Since Humans are techno freaks, what if some "research" was done on a server level (maybe linked to all servers) to add that to the game.

i haven't played a game with food allergies that also required food for survival. it would be an interesting twist.

So long as the allergies doesn’t kill but doesn’t really harm it isn’t bad.

@atoro
this is why we're not theorycrafting right now. there are too many unknowns.

@daz
I'd say as neutral. i think of the Gargoyle tv series when I think of that.

allergies could be done in a way that a buff food doesn't give that buff. it just replenishes the resource but nothing else or replenishes it a slower rate.

If there are allergies then there should be favorites, which give a bigger buff or replenishes more than normal.

I'd prefer to have a complete random on this.

remember that spells don't home to a target. Although there might be a few that do, it'll be an exception. they fire in a direct line and whatever is in the way gets hit.

this allows tanks to be shields for their friends or allies.

@Jetah how would beholder work

how wouldn't it? it'd work just like every other race. just a different visual.

And not able to equip a single item any other race could.

that seems far fetched from a crafting economy when 1 race has unique gear. A beholder could use more jewelry as gear instead of what the other races have. I'd have the eyes always face the direction the body is facing to make it a little easier. Maybe certain spells could be setup so that it does an AoE instead while some AoE spells are 360⁰.

@TheRippyOne
it would depend on where the (c) stands at. Since DS is in Italy then it'd have to checked there. I see Beholder in the US Patent Office but it doesn't reference mythical creature. but then again i'm not a Patent Lawyer.

I wouldn't call it flight but the beholder could always 'glide' instead of fly.

@kairosval said in Classes:

Post launch I think I'd like to see more races for Syndesia. Beastmen and demons both get some variation, but Humans do not. Might be nice if other races get 'discovered'.

Elves and dwarves would be the two obvious ones, but that's a little cliche even for me. Not sure what would be good, but I'm not a game designer. ^_^

it doesn't take a game designer to think of some races.

Beast style

• Naga
• Turtle
• Honey Badger
• Lizard
• Bat
• Rabbit

Human is pretty used up to me. I'd prefer to not see humans but some other beast and demon that are neutral but it is what it is.

• dwarf
• elf (really it's over used)
• Giant

Humans could even have half human

• centaur

Demon

• minotaur
• beholder

@lx15
the game will have 400 skills, not saying it'll be all but that's plenty for a while.

there are no classes. you pick a number of skills you want to use with limited slots available.

i'm sure they'll add more races post-launch.

@aleworth
the game is 3D! you can walk in any of the 4 axes. 2D is more like a painting, like cartoons/anime (minus those 3D and cell animation ones).

the game will be similar to Ultima Online before the split between pvp and pve realms.

if you want a movable camera similar to WoW, this wont be your game.

@Prometheus
what other conventions will DS plan to visit?

@forlornmurps
yes.

@greenfire
why not report a bug in the block mechanics so it can be fixed..
