I do, and it will be quite a good one, but I need 4 maps (at least) made before I can get the really good one...

I am still waiting for the images you promised to send me so I could get working on one of those maps of yours.

Meh, last couple times I hit up bosses, twas Maldora and a few different bandit bosses, they lasted long enough with 6+ players to satisfy me (5 to 15 minutes, with maybe 2 or 3 overpowered players - woulda lasted a lot longer against foes of their own level).

In anycase, yeah, there will be harder bosses in Lod..Lor...Loa... Skycastle2, or whatever it's called. I dunno how close Crow is to done... I know how close I am, and it does not bode well...

I'd *REALLY* like to see some more mid-level maps though.

We also took out the fragment of maldora in around a minute or so, with just 3 of us.

Heres a demo file


How to play demo files:

1. Take the file and place it in your msc folder

2. Open msc and type "playdemo mal" in your console (without quotes)

3. Ignore the fact that the hud is missing along with some other things such as first person weapon models its just how MS:C does demos.

4. ??????

5. Profit

A rat can't kill a 5 HP noob "in 1" (if you mean one hit, that is).

yes ,well he said it was in 1, but i'm guess it was calruin.
i told him to w8 for me to go online so i could show him what to do what areas to go and stuff (this was b4 the level guide on the maps)
but of course he wanted to play b4 i got online and now he don't wanna play :eek:

Level caps, level caps, level caps.

I noticed they implemented such on some weapons now.
Problem with no level caps is that players will eventually become gods, and need new areas with harder monsters in order to find challenge.

I for one find MS extremely difficult, being a 9th Blade Caster. The heavier skeletons slaughter me, and I barely dare to move up against orcs or bandits. I actually don't know of any low level area I can fight in. The bats in the sewers are so many with so much health and little experience gain that I didn't really want to spend too much time in there.

I finally fire darted myself to a Perfect Skull Blade, so now I can at least stand a chance to most enemies, and kill them before they kill me ;)

I have a feeling that armour doesn't actually absorb any damage anymore?
I took quite a beating with plate mail, and didn't notice any significant change in damage taken, going from leather to plate.

I can understand why you think the dark armor doesn't absorb damage when there are monsters that can do hundreds of damage through it, but that's exactly how hard the game has become :p

I haven't gotten any futher than where one might find Plate Mail, seeing as creatures kill me in few blows, even at 100 HP.

The spiders in the Thornlands are difficult because of the spitting spider interrupting the fight all the time.

I remember now, though, that I reduced the absorption of the armour to such an extend that the variety was so small, you would truly value to the extra percent.

Now, however, I see the flaw in that design.
Going from 12% to 15% isn't going to help you squat against a skeleton.

Heck, 2% is a mere 2HP of a 100HP blow. That's what you get when noone's able to play out and test your changes...

I wanted the game to be hard in the first place, mostly because we didn't have all the maps we have now, and because there were no other hard creaures other than the bosses.

But now, I feel as if there are no suitable places fo a low level character to play, other than abusing the spell/archery distances or kill boars and skeleton warriors for hours.
