Hey hey All
This guy suggest we have dragons http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/70330
Let's talk about creating a new monster/miniboss then
Dragons!
Did someone shout Dragon? All men to battle stations, it's time to tame this wild beast!
- Subject : Dragon
- Type : Beast
- Health :
- 500-800 for Tier 1 (sorry, forgets tier 1 damage)
- 1500-2500 for Tier 2
- 4000-8000 for Tier 3 (though I realize how blitz can easily take this damage)
- Possible Status effects : Freeze, Poison, Fire, Shock, Stun(for normal stratum)
Attacks :
~ Tier 1 onwards ~
Swipe : Swipes its claws at a 90 degree radius in front. Deals normal damage/piercing damage, possible knockback, possible stun. Swings have a range of 2 -3 squares.
~ Tier 2 onwards ~
Breath : Exhales a foul smelling breath from its mouth. Possible damage, deals status effects. The breath travels forward at a 90 degree radius and about 6 squares.
Tail Swing : Swings its tail around 360 degrees. Deals normal/piercing damage, possible knockback. It has a possible range of 2-4 squares.
~ Tier 3 onwards ~
Fly : Flys up and lands on a knight. There will be a shadow to indicate landing. Deals heavy normal damage and knockback.
Bite : Bites at knights. Deals piercing damage, possible stun. Possible higher damage, but it has a low range. Bite deals heavy damage at the front for up to 2 squares.
Drops : Crowns, Heat, Yellow shard, Green shard, Dragon scale, possible salamander gear...
Anything else to say?
Looks :
General description : Dragon is huge size, possible 5 times bigger than the knight.
~ Tier 1 ~ Light colors, scales are flat and smooth. Has a normal tail scaly tail.
~ Tier 2 ~ Slightly darker colors, scales are slightly pointy. Tail has a few spikes on it.
~ Tier 3 ~ Very dark colors, scales are rough and pointy. Tail has many spikes on it.
Normal dragons : Dragon is of yellowish/brownish color.
Fire : Dragons are reddish in color.
Shock : Dragons are Purple/blue in color.
Freeze : Dragons are Bluish/white in color.
Poison : Dragons are greenish in color.
Shadow : Dragons are grayish/blackish in color.
Edit: If not we can have smaller dragons as normal enemies ^^ Thunderbog is gonna hate me :3
Smaller versions of dragons : About the size of a wolver, but with wings @q@
Perhaps take out the tail spin attack and swipe attack.... Tier 1 will have biting only, Tier 2 will have Dragon breath, and Tier 3 flying!!!!
Health : 100-200 for Tier 1, 500-800 for Tier 2, 1200-1600 for Tier 3, and they can fly to dodge bullets :3 Take that blitz!
I'm done, feel free to comment and suggest and BASH this thread.
And if you do bash it, I will personally FUS RO DAH you.
No offense, but the Dragon will be slaughtered. It's Beast, weak to Pierce, and two charges of a Blitz will annihilate it.
I say it should be given Vanaduke's Mask resistance - all special damage deflected. 'Course...Blitz will still probably have the highest damage....but at least it won't die in a charge.
I have a question...why exhale foul breath? It's not a hippopotamus. Why not exhale fire or something that most dragons do?
I'm also assuming since you said "onwards" that T2 will have T1's attacks, and so on and so forth.
I also suggest that the T1 dragons and other Tier dragons have different names. T1 Dragons can be called Drakes, and hence drop Drake Scales. T2 Dragons may be called Wyverns, and have a higher chance of dropping drake scales. T3 Dragons may be called Dragons, and drop Dragon Scales. This way it goes with the Armor Sets named after the beasts, as well as the materials.
EDIT: Oh, and while it gets resistance to special damages (due to its thick hide or something like that), it still is a Beast. Thus, it will still take bonus damage from Beast-Family Damage Bonus UVs.
