Item wish list?

Why on earth would it nullify regeneration? There's no reason for a Lamia to have their regeneration turned off because of a piece of wood.

Sword of Eternity could grant Horror Marked and Never Heals -abilites as well...

I would like to have more helmets too, and boots wouldn't hurt either, but what would firey boots be like? No items should be added just because public wants them if they are not thematic and/or do ont fit in with the other items of the game.

Hmm, new Posts. Wouldn't Holy Water be effectively the same as Banishment? Maybe short-range, big AoE banishment, but still Banishment. Maybe the same item could grant penetration bonus, but then it would be used by pure mages in combination with Stellar Focus and/or Rune Smasher.

What would Holy items be like? Would there be new Holy gems?

The problem with most efforts at a MoM2 is that if they try to multiplayer it they do the balance like AOW:SM instead of like Dom2 does which kills the replayability. Especially any solo replay. (yes I do have AOW:SM also, and any other game that ever claimed to be a MoM2)

Linky?

Also, did you try Leylines?

I think I gave enough info for it to be googled Its not good to put too many links to other games on a gameboard.
And yes I did try Leylines. Not bad.

Sheer perversity once suggested to me an artifact Meteor Magnet that sometimes attracted Gifts from Heaven during battle. Since that spell is rather low PREC, the bearer might actually live decently long.
The KODP fan in me wouldn't mind seeing an item that cast Flaming Arrows, either.
Would it be thematic for kills (lifeless need not apply) with a Jade Knife in the hands of a blood priest to have a chance to count as blood sacrifices?

Oooooh! All good suggestions! I especially like the jade knife one.

Things that change dominion strength before (or during) combat as a (even psychological?) counter against immortals would be wonderful.

The suggestions about the Jade Knife and the sword/stake/whatever that kills immortals are *excellent.* If the devs ever wondered what kind of racial item Machaka could have, that knife would be a great one

And something for immortals to really fear would be nice as well.

I think that if you're going to make an item that permanently kills immortals, that it would have to be a unique artifact, and require level 5 skill in three or more magic paths. Preferably useful gem types such as nature, death, and astral.

I writted down about an immortal slaying sword ... below.

Now I add Lythanies of Faith ... an item astral+fire that can have a random effect before battle if handled by a priest ... (raising morale, or stats or other things) or simply creating more lythanies.

Those represent the pre-battle blessing, sermons and so on, spoken by priest reading ancient holy texts, that their presence is similar to a relic one.
