Perhaps giving us more elemental (electricity) defences would help?
Thorgal2005-10-02 17:49:45
Enabling electric proofs to work on cloaks and coats would help, they only seem to work on greatrobes.
Munsia2005-10-02 18:11:05
revamp the entire armour issue and get rid of runes
Thorgal2005-10-02 18:15:24
What armour issue?

Runes are a great concept in general.
Changing them, fine, but no removing! dry.gif

In a more ideal situation where nobody had already bought runes, I think a good solution would be:

1. Remove wounding runes, because they seem very out of place now that precision is used for wounding.

2. Remove artifact elemental runes and make them obtainable by non-artifact means (like forging or arts or something). This way warriors could balanced taking into account that any serious warrior would have them.

The first doesn't make any sense and the second is just stupid, I would rather have elemental runes entirely removed than that.

I can see your point on the first as it was more my opinion than anything else, but please, tell me why the second one is so stupid.

Artifact worthy power for several hundred gold, I would guess.
Ceren2005-10-03 23:33:43
See, the common complaint is that unruned warriors are underpowered and runed warriors are overpowered. If every warrior could obtain elemental runes, they could be balanced fairly.

Then the warriors would all be overpowered and be imbalanced with all the other archetypes doh.gif I want all mages to be able to buy level 3 scepters with gold if that happens

Well, what he means is that if everyone had them, they could nerf weapons in general so that only those using the runes would be effective. Basically, a lot like it is now, only it'd bring down the damage of top warriors and bring up that of not-quite-so-top.

He's right in a way- while those runes exist, warrior damage CAN'T be balanced. Whether that's an issue or not, however...

It seems kind of pointless to have the runes at all if your aim is to make all warriors more or less the same. I mean, why pay however many credits for these runes when you're just going to be the same as everyone else?

Because without them you're just another not-whorish warrior.

I want level 3 sceptres to be worth buying to begin with.
