@Xzoviac Sure, but ability will keep its power, it will just be little different (but not stronger or overall beter - it might have lower cooldown, but lower damage as well or so). But it would sure be nice to have dude specialised in one element. Personally im more interested how CC skills will change.

A hard 1 second stun may turn in to a 3 second slow for example

A single target silence that stops all castable spells may turn in to a aoe deafening that could stop only 1 type of spell or only stops attack spells

Something along those lines

@Tero-Kaze But

Harvest 1000 Stones = +1 knowledge of Metallurgy opens up Iron Ore

Harvest 1000 Iron Ore = +1 knowledge of Metallurgy opens up Coal

2 points of Metallurgy opens up Steel

Imo there is difference between "i kill X bad guys --> I get ability X" and " I harvest X lvl 1 material so i can unlock X lvl 2 material". All abilities learnt from monsters (hopefully) will be on same power level (yes, some differ in power, but also cost more memory), I will not have to unlock one skill of one enemy to unlock skill of other enemy . This kind of grind based on prerequisite is boring and always have been (aka "make 1464131846 same daggers to unlock sword") and as its based on power levels, it´s imo not very horizontal.

I hope some of the more unique spells will be on bosses and a little difficult to get

For example acid dragon could turn a flame thrower attack in to a acid spray

stating that someone will do physical harm to your family isn't allowable under most TOS. the great companies will actually press charges or pass the threat over to the police and let them handle it.

What kind of games did you play? Psychopath XI, the road to insanity?

I think personal threats are fine too unless doxx related
People will say they are gonna kill each other so on, on the regular
Cant get a gm involved everytime a player chimps out because you stole their boss
If someone is going ott in the abuse block em and move on or use the in game systems to pk/punish them

So basically, those things would be not acceptable in real life ( at least where I live), but fine in a game?

Seriously? I haven't been in PvP related games, but if this is the "standard" now. Those kids need a nose brain job or get out more often.

I guess peoples words just dont bother me I'll block em if I cba with the spam.

Harassing a player with multiple alts ofc shld be upgraded to a gm.

My point isn't that it's ok to be that way, by fine I mean should not be delt with by gms

Because dealing with player arguments adds a massive work load.

If you choose not to block someone then the problem is at you end.

If you block them and they make alts to keep harassing you, then you can raise it to gms.

Just my opinion I dunno what the rules will be like

Yep, GMs should only react if:

1. hacking / exploiting = player ban (no mercy)
2. botting = player ban (no mercy)
3. gold seller messages = player ban (no mercy)
4. extensive normal player (non whisper) public spam = player muted for certain period (this can be progressive for repeated offenses)

i was thinking more personal threats but yeah that too.

Gms are not babysitters

Unless a player is actively endangering another person.

Or is cheating botting hacking then all is fair in love and war

Anyone can pop a healing spell on their bar, and each spell is going to have 3 versions.

I'd be surprised if certain spells dont gain utility instead of damage type change, such as slows life steals burst in to dot

There are some restrictions. plate with magic, blunt weapons with bleeding dot.
And anyway, if you don't have a weapon with matk bonus, it makes little sense to have a healing spell unless it consumes very little mana. Now this raises the question of how will damage dealers will high matk be balanced if they can effectively use healing spells? The more I talk with you on the forums, the more I start to think that this is going to be the first game I switch from tank/mdps to nuker/necro.

I would like to go necromancer too, I'm hoping rock paper scissors style combat with each type weak to another

@dj35 I hope mods dont deal with in game politics even if its bad language, players should police these things imo

As long as its not DOXing or anything illegal.

I think guilds /civilization should be able to bounty drag a player in to jail.
Leaving them in a player driven time out if needed .
pk and steal the guys loot business or livelihood if they piss off enough people so on

as soon as devs start dealing with trolls instead of putting the tools in the players hands to fix the problems, it can snowball, and snowflake the server (never a good thing in a PVX game) because player generated hate towards each other creates great wars and Intense rivals especially if players can punish each other withing the game mechanics

Daily daily woo how are you?

@Gothix said in How will be decided which group takes a farming spot on Arboreus (animal planet)?:

Mmmm... a mini zones of influence around guild created cities on Arboreus that allow an optional rule to be set by leadership allowing only guild members to farm in that area.

Attacking the mobs if not member of the guild would then lower your karma.

Or you could buy a hunting licence or be classed as poachers

I'd like to be able to get 3 pets 3 summons and make a small army, more if possible I love summon classes

Coming out of cage but I'm doing just fine

Kills will probably just be shared joint xp and loot.

@Razvan said in New spell Ideas:

If the effects are strong enough, people will use them. In fact, I don't know what MMOs you guys played, but the ones I did required a good deal of coordination between players and guilds tried to take advantage of this as much as possible.
Anyway, now that you mention those games, Aspirin, I reckon that Magicka also had coop combos - for example, multiple people shooting a beam results in a stronger one fired on an altered angle. On the other hand, if they make mages so badass, nobody will play archers or melee.

Fire arrows ice arrows flaming swords rock defenses lightning reflexes could all be ways to make one player op while the others buff
taking on a boss or turning mele in to CC pvp tanks

This is not the first event to have to have the dnd stuff

@dj35 said in New spell Ideas:

@Jetah well that's assuming using the same spell with someone else doesn't boost it i mean like if we both use fire-bolt at the same time it might get boosted doing more damage

I'd like it if using fire and someone else uses wind together made the fire explode

water then fire would make steam burn damage then fog aoe

Using earth then fire could cause a clay trap or lava wave depending on the ground under the player
If on a beach you would get glass shrapnel explosion

Ice and wind may cause a blizzard

So on

Undead poison homeing pidgeon was a beast

Think it started as a Polimorph a rock in to pidgeon then pidgeon attacks player and is set on fire with fireball and poisoned incase the enemy wants to eat it, then raised from the dead becoming a undead poison pidgeon

stand up for the quest

Instead of just a board it could be a guild quests

they setup a board and get quests from the genral population to get items build houses or kill monsters.

The members of the guild can then do the requests from the board.

More quests you do the higher rank the guild members will get allowing them to do bigger quests.

rep scores will tell the public how reliable the guild is at finishing certain quests.
Instead of being a list with everyone's score you could have to go to the local tavern and ask around town wich would get NPCs to reveal what a local guild is like

Thank you, and happy new year

Whenever you have to have to be in a way to deter them in the forums could have been designed
