Yet another Angolwen reward for killing Urkis idea

#1 Post by Strongpoint »

Or rather prereward

Before sending you to the battle Linaniil should say something like " Your weapon is not good enough for the task, let us improve it" That adds arcane egos to the weapon equipped in the main hand while keeping existing one turning the weapon into an artifact

To prevent abuse, that should happen either only if character is below some level (15?, 20?) or limited by a tier, if you wield tier 5 than your weapon is surely "good enough"

Not sure what to do with already artifacts...

Idea is based around - if you go Zigur you need to give up arcane items, if you go Angolwen - you get a nice arcane weapon instead

It could get weird if you've already got an artifact in your main hand, or if you're a brawler. Still, it does sound oddly fitting: "Go, hero, take the Blade of Angolwen, and strike down Urkis in our name!"; perhaps she could offer you a choice of weapons instead, or hand over a t3 randart based on your currently equipped weapon (or gloves/gauntlets, if you have no weapon equipped).

^ I really like this idea. Kind of fleeting, but helpful for the time you get it, especially if you have bad luck with loot.

Nice idea.

The teleport happens in a dialog, so she could just offer you a choice:
- "Improve my current weapon, please!": adds Arcane Powers, removes Arcane Disrupting, adds t3 ego stuff -- if already ego, adds one nice thing.
- "I wish I had a nice staff...": t3 ego staff
- "I like greatswords!": duh
- "A shield would help most.": t3 ego shield with guaranteed Lightning resistance
- "A dagger, that I might cramp his style by placing it between his vertebrae.": duh
Check out my addons: Nullpack (classes), Null Tweaks (items & talents), and New Gems fork.

And when you come back after Urkis, she could upgrade the weapon (again).
