Keepsake Addon

#1 Post by benli »

I just uploaded a new addon. Keepsake is a zone/quest exclusive to the Cursed class. It scales for levels 15-25 and appears in the West. Shouldn't be hard to find on the map. I'd love to get some feed back on it.

Also, I don't think there have really been any zone addons that I've seen other than the example, so if you have questions about how some of it works feel free to ask. It includes a lot of random features (lore, quests, grid events, fixed and generated maps, talents, etc). Also, unlike the example this one doesn't overwrite any existing files so it may be useful for other zone creators (are there any of you out there?).

wow this is really good

*ahem*

Anyway, the story elements (which are clearly significant) are very well done and enthralling. I really like the contrast in the two artifact rewards.

Very good, and I hope you have another planned for Doomed...

So can someone spoil me and tell me when/how/where this quest/zone spawns?

I really want to check it out without being to spoiled so didn't crack the add-on open. But I'm pretty terrible at playing cursed and my level 18 halfling cursed died before finding the zone :(

It's not hidden. Near Angolwen (sp?) should be a small lake icon for all Cursed at lvl 1. The latest beta doesn't seem to have the sparkle particles which I miss a lot :(. It uses one of the mage npc spots there.

It was an excellent addon, but I do have one complaint.....it made me hungry for either an entire side-story quest, or more Afflicted classes :D

This was good. Very good. POSSIBLE SPOILER: What should I do with the book if I took it?

**** SPOILERS **** The choice to take the book is considered an evil act (along with some other choices). This affects the reward (punishment?) at the end of the quest. As far as the book itself: Its a chance at power that you greedily took despite knowing the consequences. And in the end you are left encumbered (literally) by an worthless object that does nothing. Best to just drop it and move on. Or you could hang onto it like some kind of "memento". The book is just one more repetition of some of the themes running through the story. I tried to repeat them often to create a kind of mood to the story. I may work on another addon or two if I feel ambitious and so the book could find some other even more nefarious purpose.

**SPOILERS** So if I understand it correctly, the stats of the acron at the end of the "storyline" are defined by my actions?

**** Spoilers **** There are two versions based on your actions (including whether you took the curse tree at the beginning).
