Things that would be cool (at least to me lol)

Dark_Ebon_Spider · 04-20-2008 09:31 AM

Just a list of little things that would be quite cool to have in the game.

Bane Spiders: to retain their Executioner strike (maybe they will keep this) albeit not as strong...i seem to recall an NPC executioner strike is almost a oneshot and for banes Pets to not be timed and to have MM controls (probably not gonna happen)

Fortunata: for their dom power when affected it brings up MM controls for the enslaved foes and makes them able to be controlled like a pet this would be awesome in all but pvp. imagine as a Fortunata you run in and mezz the boss and a few LTs then run around and kill the others then when that runs out kill them with a TK blast

Also for those classes you start out as an Arachnos Soldier or Arachnos Widow but when you branch your class name changes (so you would go from Arachnos Soldier to Bane Spider)as does your class symbol (this is most definately not going to happen)

I would love for them to have their own Origin too, Arachnos Origin with its own Enhs, temp power and whatever

well thats four, what would you like to see for the veats

Not so much a dev affecting thing, but I would love to see a bright pink Crab Spider.

I don't have the courage to do it myself, but surely someone's crazy enough?

Dark_Ebon_Spider · 04-20-2008 10:22 AM

Im sure you will see it along with bright pink Banes and huge male pink fortunatas.

one thing im really hoping on at the moment may sound silly but, i hope that banes get to have those arm claws that the crabs do, I know the vid shows a bane with them but that may change.

I forget who confirmed this, either BAB or Castle, but Bane Spiders will be getting their Executioner's Strike. It'll "only" be around 40% of a Stalker's AS power, though.

Col_Blitzkrieger · 04-20-2008 10:31 AM

So wait, are they going to get Stealth Strike, Executioner's Strike, or both?

Mongoose_EU · 04-20-2008 10:31 AM

i want crab spiders to role up into a ball and walk around on there 4 legs or just role around like metroid

this would be super speed obviously but rolled up into a ball, you can't attack while in ball form but you can knock enemies away by rolling into them, PBAoE obviously. just by you're speed you knock them back, that's how fast it should be.

My Crab Spider's second cossie will feature a Duster hat, and nothing else...

Also I'm in Fatality, so my Arachnos armour, altho being made black, will spend most of its time in SG mode. ELECTRIC PINK FTFW

im still not sure on this, can more than one costume be arachnos outfit, but only the first one has to be?

Dark_Ebon_Spider · 04-20-2008 02:16 PM

It was semi confirmed (cant remember who though...suspect it was BABS) but they stated that the reason they went with the first char slot for armor was because alot of the arachnos pieces dont work with regular bits and clip. I do however hope for our other slots we still get some bits that can be used where applicable.

You probably want to check out this screenshot then:

I really should do something about this signature.

Dark_Ebon_Spider · 04-22-2008 10:07 AM

Thanks Praf

but as I said it would appear we as Banes would be able to do that but there is a chance it could change and that perhaps that was a mistake that they put the blade arms into the Bane costume options rather than the crab ones *since we havent seen a bane with those ingame yet*. but the I live in hope as I want to design a costume using those blades since they will emulate my Original Mains costume albeit in SoA form.

Nice link PRAF, but aren't those all just stills from the video? I think we need a red response <poke poke>

Golden_Crusader · 04-22-2008 06:32 PM

i think would be cool for Arachnosian (a word i made up, steal it and i sue you) Soldiers get thier own special tutorial mission, (I.E. arachnos training center) with thier own explore badge, somthing like Arachnos recruit or somthing.

Arachnosian Soldiers get to select a sub-faction to belong to (I.E. Black Scorpion) and get to run missions from that sub-faction against other sub-factions (E.G. brukes mission)

Arachnosian Soldiers cant fight NPC Arachnos ubkess in a sub-faction mission

Gilmore · 04-23-2008 04:35 AM

It would be too difficult coding-wise to stop VEATS attacking Arachnos/vice-versa, bt those other ideas sound pretty cool.

ReclusesPhantom · 04-23-2008 12:05 PM

Yeah. If they can stop heroes from attack LB vice-versa why can't they do it with VEATS?
Btw I love the sub-faction idea and the training centre!

Black_Wildfire_EU · 05-15-2008 09:32 PM

I'm surprised theres no 'ears' option for Arachnos Widows. think that'll appear by the time i12 goes live? and what about helmet less Arachnos Soilders? The Widows can go without helmets, so why not soilders?

So how do you want to be done? Medium, Well or Extra Crispy?
