Item wish list?

onomastikon · #1 February 2nd, 2004, 09:31 AM

I havent seen an Item wish list anywhere, and just wondering if I could start one.

What would you think of some of the following? Do you think these could be included in an update?

- Cloak of the Forester: Prot 0, Enc 0, enables the wearer to move unseen through provinces as if he/she were a stealthy unit.
Nature 2, Astral 1 (?), Lesser Magic Item (?)

- Ring of Hiding: Anyone wearing this ring will have his or her ability to hide unseen in a province increase.
Nature 2, Astral 2 (?), Greater Magic Item (?)

Any other suggestions?

The variation of magic items that could be made to fit this game are so numerous that I wouldn't know how to start listing my suggestions.

It would be a moot point though since I don't know if we will ever be able to add items to the game. Might be able to edit the existing ones eventually perhaps?

More nation specific artifacts. There is only one for C'tis now. Why other nations haven't got any?

Mjollnir or Gungnir would be great for Vanheim.

Stealth items could be used with the heart that creates assassins. Being able to add both of those to anyone you want might be too hard to try and figure the balances on

Metamagic might be interesting; say, a magical item that gives bonuses to dispelling enchantments, or even an artifact which locally causes a substantial drift towards drain, and a twin that's the other way around.
A Standard of the Dead artifact that automatically does low-magnitude reanimation of corpses might be thematic, but perhaps too strong.
A magical eye artifact that lets the wielder ignore Mirror Image and phantasms, and gives him a patrol bonus might be nifty.
Perhaps a commander could benefit from a magical horse, giving him the benefits of being mounted (namely, more speed plus ignoring armor enc for melee purposes).
