Obsidian Sky

Naomi strolled through the town,an apple she had taken from home in her mouth, and her hands behind her head. Great.... Thanks to my parents i'm probably way behind everyone else....How am i ever going to catch up? Naomi took the apple out of her mouth to sigh and placed it back in. heh, no matter. It just makes things more interesting. Now if only there was someone around to help me...

Darknight...are you going to add my bio soon...?
i'll give you a cookie...

 

Exel sighed as he checks his watch. How long can it take to just wipe out a squad of monsters? HE thought as hhe was waiting for the others next to the bulletin board.

 

Naomi looked at the headquarters, i presume. Let's see...maybe this place'll help.... Her eyes wandered over to the bulletin board where she saw someone waiting. She took the apple out of her mouth and ran over to Exel. "Oi, excuse me but can you tell me the name of this place?"

OOC: I dunno myself. Ask Dark later on.

BIC: Exel shrugged. I dunno. He said and then took a bite on an apple.

 

OOC:....

BIC: "that's helpful..." Naomi muttered as she threw her own half eaten apple up in the air and caught it, "well anyway i'm Naomi Swan. Nai for short..and you are..?"

Well, the other people are working on one job right now as I already finished mine. He said and took another bite.

 

"oh...oh man! another risk missed.." sapphire tsked, "hey that rhymed..."

Exel just sat there a bit confused. She didn't even let me have a chance to answer her..... He thought and then took another bite of the apple.

 

OOC: THAT is a good plan, Xegreny... about the death penalties and stuff... but it shouldn't apply on Genesis, but later it should (Genesis is a beginner's world, y'know.)

Anyway, the reason I don't like Hit and Evade is because it's not practical: how are you going to figure out how often you hit them and stuff. It just lengthens the battle and stuff. So maybe what I'll do is separate HP and MP from Defense and Magic Defense and make them stat dependable as well. So if you add in 1 point to your HP you get 5 more HP? But only 1 for your MP, because you lose HP faster.

That might work...

And as for the attack system, it's not very practical either, really. Your defense is ridiculously high, the attack too low...

So I'm thinking of re-doing it a bit... I'll think about it tomorrow. And I'll add Hidden's bio tomorrow too... Ummm, hopefully I'll be on tomorrow more than just to do that, but we'll see. We'll have to leave Genesis Monday...

Of course, we'll also meet two familiar faces before then... *coughdcoughacoughrcoughicoughucoughscough*

If you got that, I'll give you a rep, XD.

 

OOC: ok...XD
thanks Darknight! ^^ XD
oh and i probably won't be here till saturday....XP competition...
so drag me along every once in a while or don't....doesn't matter....XD
i only got Darius....is the other Xardius or what...? XD

 

OOC: Hey.....i'm sorry i havent been on for like 5 days....i think i should just leave, i dont want to drag any one's plans down, so i'm resigning....I'm sorry, Great RP though Darknight, i really wish i had more time lol thanks for the opertunity though, see ya! :)

 

OOC: I PMed youd that. Mostly so I could bother you with little plot-sensitive questions. Feel free to continue that conversation we were having about tweaking the battle/stat system there... instead of spamming up the thread. Since we were the only ones participating. ;D

Bah, bye Wing. D:

DEF - MDEF should add HP/MP its easier that way, and STR can be direct damage. But if we go that way, it would be expected for Melee characters to have HP in the 1000+ ranges, perhaps even 10,000+, and casters to have RIDICULOUSLY strong Magic Attacks and Spells to offset the low HP they would have. Eh?

Then, if DEF/MDEF are HP/MP and STR and MGC are PDMG/MDMG.. that leaves EVD and HIT. Honestly, the only reason they're not practical is because this is a forum, and not an actual game. The game has progams to do the math for us, and we wouldnt worry about it. I say we scratch that, and change it to CIT or Critical. A stat that increases chances of doing double damage, because if we're following the method above, we're basicly throwing the concept of negating damage with DEF/MDEF out the door, and taking/dealing direct damage.


BIC: Now fully kicking his companions in the side, "GET UP YOU LAZY BUMS!" Xegreny roared at them.

OOC: The problem with Critical is the same as Hit and Evade; the inability to calculate it ourselves. We need something that will affect our gameplay directly. How about we change it to Item Level and Magic Level. It would be a bit different...So I'll explain here.

The Leveling up system would be changed as in the fact that you will gain the EXP as points, and these points will be directly distributed to your stats.

When you take EXP, say 2, you can give it to any statistic you want. These points will LEVEL UP a stat.

Take Tera Roth for example.

Strength Level 1 at beginning, 2 EXP to get to Level 2, then 3, then 5, etc. Each level up will affect the damage you inflict. If I have Level 1 strength, you'll have the equivalent of 10 STR now. Each level will add 6.

Defense works the same way, as does magic and magic defense. So HP and MP will be affected as well.

Now, for Item Level and Magic Level: Item Level affects how potent the item is, and you can choose whether this affects everyone or just yourself every time you level up. Magic Level affects how many enemies you affect, and therefore takes longer to level up.

Item Level and Magic Level take 100 EXP to make the first level, then 200, then 300, etc.

Sound good?

 

OOC- wat I miss? XP

 

OOC: Nuthin much.
