EDIT: DAMNIT!

Oh well, I'll take the time to say that as much as that restriction system was a good idea, it has totally messed up (All elven blades require sword 15, PFCK is common, etc.) I suggest it either be re-examined or done away with except for the good weapons...
Also, your chest unlock thing works beautifully :D

You are here --> X
It would be nice if func_water entities lead electricity, so if monster X stands in the water and player Y hits the water with erratic lightning, monster X gets hit. :p

What was that jelly? Something about a new ice/water spell that creates a pool of water at the enemies feet so you can zap them all at once for more damage? Really though, spell synergy would be great.

New artifact system is disappointing. Finished a keep run in which I do most of the work on the boss (not to mention the rest of the map) and the artifact chest gives me a elven long bow, while some other random person gets the orion bow. They then pretended to not have recieved it, and later leaved the server. His name was WuBing and his steam is STEAM_0:1:38402, but that doesn't really matter. Point is that artifact chest should give out the best item first, not just randomly pick one. I guess that reminds me I should never farm for items in public servers.

Happened to me too Shuriken, Me and Killerlot were soloing Wicardoven, then I got some people to join, around level 20-25 (lower than me) and then when we are about to kill the boss, a level 31 joins, get the arti chest, and gets a Phoenix armor.

Please Thothie, make the Arti chest pick the people that actually work, I don't know if it possible to count the monsters slain (this could be abused), time in the map (there's afkers waiting for artis sometimes too, if there's no admin around), or something, since I've run out of ideas right now.

He would have had to been on the map for several minutes and have been attacked, but there are already so many conditions for being validated for an artifact chest that it's already too likely to reject legit users, I don't dare add more.

As for giving the highest players the best items, there's no easy way to arrange that. Odds go way down on anything spawning at all with less players about though, so unless you can arrange eight buddies on your passworded server, your always better off in a pug.

Maybe he joined a bit before, since the boss fight took quite long, but yeah, he wasn't there since the beggining and no, he didn't give the phoenix armor, he kept it.

Ah no, it was Lockdown, tPoD member, atleast he said he'll help us to get a new one, well we did like 3 rounds before he "had to go" and then he was playing in another server.

This is what guilds are for ;-). Now if only we had a server that could handle all of us..

I know it sounds a little offtopic, but I have a little suggestion. Since we don't have any small arms better than the very very old PFCK, I though it would be nice to have a "dual wield dagger" as a weapon. In fact it would be a very fast attacking two handed weapon but with the anims and model of dual wield with two daggers. We need some new and uberness in the small arms category :wink: .

That was our (me and sabre) idea for Sabre's swords.

Except you want all different combinations and crazy crap. I think he just wants a dagger that's 2 daggers.

I think you should be able to attack with both weapons at the same time when dual wielding.

You're giving away defense for offense.
You know, instead of having to wait for the first weapon to swing before you swing your next.

That way, you can simply just equip two daggers.

I've wanted to look into that, but the attack system has scared me away thus far.

I'd prefer to get exp to pass to the attacking weapon instead of the primary weapon before working on a system like this ;-)
