Heroica RPG General Discussion

I don't think you can do that. You can only 'reforge' weapons into weapons of the same 'weapons class', for roleplaying purposes. (for example, changing a Scarab Shield into a traditionally-shaped shield)

[Sandy]

Can you do that? I plan on switching to a class that is unable to use daggers. If this is a legal action then it will save me money as I won't have to upgrade a new weapon.

That would totally negate the point of weapon types, so I don't approve that action. Weapons cannot magically change types, even if your job class can use both.

Darth Nihilus, please edit your post in the Marketplace accordingly.

Can there be a a Scroll of Cursing, just so I can imbue it into my Golden Armor?

On a more serious note, would it be overpowered to have Gold Reaper do damage? There's a 1/6 chance of assassination, but that can be pretty useless against one enemy, especially if it's a boss with instakill immunity. Perhaps I'm biased about it, but what does anyone else think?

Many Shield-skills do not deal damage, and not every class can be useful in every scenario, otherwise what would be the point of switching classes at all? Having 1/6 chance of instant kill is a great power (as the Guffington Quest proves), so it has to have its downsides as well.

Damage equal to level would be appropriate, I'd think.

Makes sense. I thought as much, which is why I wanted to ask.

@Peppermint M: I remember you making a post in Quest 19 somewhere about the name of your Zoot's Plaything, but I can't find it. I used Google Translate from Welsh to English, and I got "Wren on" [Zoot], which makes sense but is that the meaning? I also looked up the name Wren, and it means wisdom. If that's what you intended, then the weapons so far are Zoot's Bane, Zoot's Reaper, and Zoot's Wisdom (translated), which I think is kind of cool.

Wren Over Zoot was what I was aiming for, a reminder to Tesni what she learned on her quest and that Zoots Wisdom thing is pretty nifty. Didn't notice that but it is clever (Like LEGO in latin and all that) useful too for Tesni's future path.

Now to go put a diamond on it

[TheBoyWonder]

Time for a Flipz style question!

If Heroica had an animal version, and your character ( and planned second) was an animal, what would it be?

For me Wolf and Frog.

[Brickdoctor]

I would be an elephant. For no reason other than that I love elephants. (similar to how I chose Ranger just because I like Forestmen, and then min-maxed from there to create the character I wanted)

[Endgame]

A dead animal carcass.

[Rumble Strike]

Tarn is a tall chap, and I do love giraffes, so, yes. A giraffe Barbarian!

[TheBoyWonder]

I forgot to mention it would be a Frog Cleric and A Wolf rogue.

[Capt.JohnPaul]

A tiger would resemble Alexandre the most, I think. Cats are so quiet and peaceful, but fight fiercely and bravely.

[Palathadric]

Nah! You'd totally be a horse.

[Tachyon]

Mizuki must be a cat........................

[Capt.JohnPaul]

Nah! You'd totally be a horse.

A horse?! You must mean a valiant Stallion or Destrier.

[Tachyon]

A horse?! You must mean a valiant Stallion or Destrier.

I'd say you would be a Pony or a Unicorn.

[Palathadric]

A gelding, my man. A gelding.

[K-Nut]

Don't know about Althior, but Finnegan would definitely be a Chihuahua.

[Brickdoctor]

Don't know about Althior

Oh, K-nut, you should be the horse. Stuck in a door in a fort.

You should be a poisoned cow.

[Capt.JohnPaul]

You should be a poisoned cow.

Nah, more of a... um... what hunts cows?

[K-Nut]

Oh, K-nut, you should be the horse. Stuck in a door in a fort.

No way! I'm not dumb enough to get stuck in a door! Just dumb enough to make a horse go through it...

[Capt.JohnPaul]

No way! I'm not dumb enough to get stuck in a door! Just dumb enough to make a horse go through it...

Ah. So you're a donkey.

[Endgame]

Quest 36 is a wrap! Please leave Feedback in the QM's lounge.
