ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Just to point out, sorry if this is obvious/condescending, nsrr/pseudolonewolf's idea will Not affect any other attack talents you use. Any talents you make for the class will need to also attack twice with mainhand, and if they learn, say, rush, rush will still attack once with both hands. If this...

Your notes have been... noted! I've actually put a really good chunk of work into it now, at this point all I have to do is code the attack talents (which should be easy-ish, a lot of them are variations of each other) and give it a lot of testing. And once I'm happy with the testing... images! And ...

That's... a way better way of doing it than how I was tackling it. Not a bad plan.

The major code hurdle I'm dealing with right now, ironically, is the double attacking thing with the mainhand. The VERY FIRST SKILL. I want to make the mainhand attack twice but remove offhand attacks. BUT I don't want to make it so you can't equip an offhand. So basically your offhand slot would us...

A long time ago I posted an idea for a class here, and today I come here with another one. It might not score me points on originality, but the talents in this one are way easier to code and thus I might actually do this in the near future if this drums up any interest. Maybe it's too similar to Arc...

Made a small update to the concept/plan for the class and rest assured I am working on getting rough write-ups of the code. I've gotten a little into it, at least. Testing is a different story, but we'll worry about that hurdle when we get to it. Mainly I just want to get all the talents in place an...

So here I am planning a bunch of skills that interact with the Wet effect, but I have no idea where in the code Wet interacts with existing spells so I'm having a hard time basing anything off of that. Am I better off just writing a new Effect specifically for these spells?

Thanks everyone for the feedback again! Your suggestions have been really helpful. I've tweaked some things around. Keep on posting in this thread and letting me know what you think this needs... I'm going to start the hard work now!

Oh geez, darkgod! :shock: @Razakai: I like that idea, actually. I was sort of toiling over how to make a melee build "make sense" and I think I'll brainstorm one up at some point today. Probably make it critical-based like in WoW. My original intent behind allowing access to Antimagic is t...

So far this is just in the concept stage to see if people follow my logic for this and would like to play this class before I start putting some real hours into this. Basically, I wanted to have a Wilder class that reminded me of the Shamans of WoW: They can have vastly different roles depending on ...

EDIT: Nevermind. I'll get back to you guys on this. I was very clearly using something wildly incorrectly...

So I've been coding and I'm running into an issue. Despite the skills working correctly (meaning they hit foes and deal damage correctly), I don't seem to be getting any combo points. Where in the game files can I change the nature of combo points so that Sword Dancer can gain them without being una...

Thanks for the replies so far! I think you're right about the talents, especially the combos and finishers. While I know I want to use a combo system to sort of emulate the "tempo" of a battle, I could definitely do with some making those skills more interesting. You're also right about th...

Hey guys! I'm a huge fan of the game, and I'm ALSO a huge fan of very fabulous-looking men and women dancing with dangerous weapons. So I thought I would have some fun and ideas-guy up a class. It's basically a dual weapon class except with the combo/skill system of a brawler. Before I jumped into e...
