a spiffy new idea (for tempus at least)
Mihoshi Posted 13 Sep 2004

ok while playing a gamecube game recently i thought of a nifty idea that would probably be a great addition to tempus

giving some ON BODY eq 'slots'

and creating medical/support 'units' to put in those slots and with the random eq generator thingy going on some choice peices of ON BODY eq could potentially already have one or two slots on it already, skyrocketing thier value, and adding a new twist to the same old 'load some eq, then sell it for ridiculously inflated prices'

there would be a maximum slot number of course, i was thinking 4

these slots could only be increase through the use of 'addslot' items, possibly a quest prize or reward for services rendered

now to the juicy part, the 'units'

heres an example of a few, keep in mind that they would all be extremely rare, but some would load more often than others, see below for example

General/Battle -gives haste Devil/Battle - gives haste and berserk God/Battle - gives haste and maybe some Speed or something equally good for such a rare item

Wizard/Mana - increases Mana value by 100-200 God/Mana - increases Mana value by 300-500

Cure/Poison - would effectively make the user immune to poison Cure/Slow - would effectively make the user immune to slow type spells

All/Resist lowers (the good kind of lower) all types of saves by 1 point

Super/Resist - same as above, but by 3 points

Perfect/Resist - same as above but by 6 points

Knight/Power - raises STR by 1-2 points General/Power - raises STR by 3-4 points God/Power raises STR by 5 points

Elf/Legs - raises DEX by 2-3 points God/Legs - Raises DEX by 5-6 points

i think you get the idea, just use your imagination and the possibilites are endless!!!

Discuss!

someone's been playin too much PSO eh Miho?

While I like your idea, I think it'd be cool to give it to borgs only, and instead of have it on eq, just give borgs a few extra positions to implant. Maybe something called: Ex Slot 1, Ex Slot 2, etc. That'd be kinda cool to see.

Heartsbane Posted 14 Sep 2004

yeah, that'd be kickass, and some new remort borg skills to, but i know the imm's have been busy, and borg isnt in dire need.

Mihoshi Posted 17 Sep 2004

uh no, not for borgs only, this option would be avaliable for everyone, borg gets enough special shit already

Jakezor Posted 21 Sep 2004

Wait, can you explain that a little better? I didn't quite understand it. Do you want to add an extra eq/implant slot or what?

Mihoshi Posted 21 Sep 2004

yes and no jake. this 'slots' would only be found on equipment that is worn on the torso, i.e. takes up the slot on the eq list they would be hidden, and the only way to see what units are in the eq and how many slots there are would be to examine the peice of eq in question. they wouldnt show up when you type 'eq'

units would be inserted by typing 'insert carapace' for example. and they would eb removed by typing 'get all carapace'

over all it isn't that hard a concept to understand

Gasraidh Posted 21 Sep 2004

Just picute a skill interface, basically that's what it is, except it's on "on body" eq instead of an implant.

Jakezor Posted 22 Sep 2004

Oh i get it now, kind of like having a pocket on your armor, right?

I guess that would be cool, but what extra benefit would it serve other than being an extra equipment slot?

Mihoshi Posted 23 Sep 2004

well the main purpose would be attribute boosting, but like i said in the first post, use your imagination, the possibilities are endless
