Heroica RPG General Discussion

[Zepher]

Yeah thank you for the infoboxes, they're super useful and really are things I could not have put together myself!

[bionicle_fanatic]

So, do I need to wait until a quest is available in the Hall to start playing? [:)]

No. You can always talk to the other players in the hall.

Feel free to roleplay in the hall all you want. You'll have to wait for a quest to be posted though to actually start adventuring. Read over a few of the most recent pages of the Hall topic to find out who is currently present. Additionally there's always the Marketplace for buying more equipment, the Arena for challenging other players to PvP combat, the Library for more info on the world of Heroica, the Embassy for info on the races that inhabit Heroica, and the Treasury for some of the more interesting items that have come up in quests.

Thanks [:)] And these links look great, they'll keep me busy [:P] [:P]

"There is one last thing." Siercon said, disappointed to be seemingly giving this letter away for free. Still, Rone knew the true identity of The Archer, and he seemed very competent. He supposed things would be safe as long as he was around.

"I would like to visit your marketplace on our way home. My friends here have been before, and still to this day carry pieces of your craftsmanship, but I have not had the pleasure myself."

Siercon respectfully finished.

And with that, Siercon jumps up several rungs on the "most genre/mechanics-savvy Heroes of Heroica".

[Palathadric]

Makes sense; you can't really expect the world to need pay for Heroica every day.

Ah, now it looks right.

[Flipz]

"You know what... let's put a hollow upgrade on the halberd as well."

495-50=445g

I was literally just about to comment on that.

Ahh, Duplovia...land of the adorably but subtly broken loot.

I have no idea what I was thinking when I made that Halberd.

[Flipz]

The Halberd isn't that broken (well, as it is now--if you recall, Sandy ruled that it can only deal Stunned as normal, so you should probably update the description in 113). The other stuff there is more broken, if limited to much fewer classes.

[swils]

Deals stunned as normal... as opposed to? Heh

[Zepher]

If someone picks up two hollow boomerangs for Bobby he'd pay good money for it. :thumbup:

[The Chosen Minifigure]

I have to go on a Duplovia quest, I need a hollow blade for my staff.

So, what other ways can you specialise a weapon?

Mythril, Admanite, Hollow blade, Deals *effect*, and ____ elemental. Is that it, or did I miss something?

Ignores Row, Ignores SP

[The Chosen Minifigure]

And dual strike!

How do you get Dual strike and ignores row/SP?

[Flipz]

You don't, that would be insanely OP.

Well, no, I take it back; there's a dual-spellcasting staff (I think Thalion owns it) that does dual-strike spellcasting at the cost of double Ether, which I think is really fair all things considered. That ignores Row, but it's fueled by Ether (and with the Bad Luck Charm attached to the Hero it eats through Ether fairly quickly as well) and is elemental, which balances it out.

It still doesn't ignore SP, though; even my enemies don't ignore both Row AND SP at the same time.

(...although I myself could with my Metasimian Dory if I switched back to Skirmisher...hmm...)

[Endgame]

And that was the great big series of cosmic loopholes that was The Regret's true plan.

[Duvors]

"Based on what I've seen, you're getting pulled into something you don't know the extent of, raikuun. We were attacked not five hours ago by the Wolfgang who were openly manipulating someone in a position of power to further their own gains. If they're trying to do anything good, they're going about it the wrong way by recruiting traitors, witches, and children to their cause. Like it or not, this city needs people like the Bonapartes. This island would've been razed to the ground by my people long ago if they weren't around to keep order. This Ulric Tirnetzomlo might speak sympathetic words, but that doesn't make his cause any more valid, or even better for Eubric in the long run. If you want to do some good for this backwards city, go and volunteer for some useful work instead of yelling about the Wolfgang out here on the street. Help an alchemist, help build houses, I don't know, just don't waste your time standing out here and trying to tell me that turning Eubric into a KINGDOM is going to make things more fair. Believe me, that is NOT what kings do."

Miderun shook her head, turning to Bullsworth as something occurred to her.

"Well, we helped find your children...I've got only one question for you. Does an elf named Fogfarer manage your ships' cargo here in the city?"

My name is Throlar Wineghilm, and I approve of this message.

You know what, let's just move this to the Expert Class discussion topic.

So does that mean it's time for the Final Final Final FINAL battle?

[Endgame]

Yes, it is!

I just have a few final touches to make to the Eternal Reaper's model, but he should be done soon... After some RP, I can finally reveal my ultimate final battle.

[Flipz]

I need a better way to denote Assistance on enemies, I'd use effect tags but the Pumpkin Bombs make those a cluttered mess anyway. I like what Doc did in 112, but I'm not sure that conveys exactly how the skill works in the case of enemies.

And yes, even I'll admit it's kind of lazy to just adapt Hero classes as enemies, but what can I say? PC classes make for good minibosses.

That's why I adore Changeling enemies. They're as nasty as the heroes facing it.

Stats for Changeling Dragoon Arthur, go! (Yes, I want to prove a point. )

[swils]

the ultimate dream class for those "play on autopilot" players who do little other say "repeat" for six months.
