Was just put up on the official SK... everything pretty much, along with "Oh, THAT dark ritual."
You guys remember Black Kat?

This is what happens when you bring the dead undead back from the dead... which makes them deader undead?

Black Kat textures and aura were always in the game, accesible with spiral spy.

Thought it was against the terms of service to mess around with SK files or even use Spiral Spy.

or even use Spiral Spy.
KIKIKIKIKII
Not exactly. Modifying files is illegal. Spoilering content of files is illegal. Using Spiral Spy to look at stuff for your own uses (I'm not judging ;]) is not.

Nope, use of Spiralspy is totally legal. Only issue OOO has with it is if you use it to post spoilers. Spoilering yourself they don't mind, spoilering everyone else, however.
Messing with SK files is against the ToS, but it depends, to an extent. Generally it's just 'Don't mess', but they don't have a problem if you copy everything to a new folder and maybe use Spiralspy from there, or something.

@Shadowki:
AFAIK everyone else summed it up before I even got back to this thread.
It seems they only don't like people using spiral spy when they use it to mod the game or post spoilers.
Spoiling things for yourself I'd assume is alright though.

"spoilering" is not a word.
"spoilering" is not a word. That's like saying "snipering" or "runnering"
Anyway I really don't care about spoilers because waiting for the updates is torturous. I'd rather not know about it until it's actually playable.

Then why did you use it? And I was also talking to thimol.

#12
Technically I was typing before Thimol even posted, so it would apply to me as well.
And for the same reason I use 'Seerus', 'Mecha please', 'What the Firestorm' and the like; regardless of what the phrases would mean literally, they fit well enough into the context for people to know what the Slag I'm talking about.

Wait lemme clear something up
I'm actually new-ish to this game I started on october I think.
So lemme ask what is a black kat is it a spookat that inflicts curse or something like that, cause if that's the case........
Must.....buy......more.......angelic sets.......and.......magic sets......

Kat Boss!
Kat Boss!!!
Kat Boss!!!!!
New boss with new tokens and new token items, I'm hoping for tier 3. DLC would be acceptable. I haven't given OOO any money in a few months.
So much excitement around here lately. I must say, it's nice when the developers let us in on what they're working on. I think it keeps some players from leaving, and certainly keep me interested in everything :)

Even Seerus is big compared to other gremlins....

Oh Juances
They're called "Big Bad" for a reason.
However I'm not utterly against the black kat having mini companions (ohrite pets) that follow him/her/it about.

A large black kat …

@Canozo:
wat
It honestly baffles me how people could look at that and even have the possibility of it being a pet cross their minds.
Anyways, I can almost guarantee it's an enemy. I've been watching the newer version of black kat's model (not the one currently in the SK files, clever people will know where to find & spy the newer one) for the past week or so, and it looks... well... I obviously can't spoil anything, but I'll just say it certainly doesn't look like something you'd want as a pet.

@ Gkku
They just release the info about Sprites...
A shadow type, kat look-a-like Sprite is not out of the boundary of possibility...
Not everyone uses Twitter, as a matter of fact. The people who uses the most Twitter are Americans...
So yeah I can see how someone (like me) could confuse this "new" enemy with a new sprite
Like Canine said, I had no clue what a black kat is and all I know from wiki is that it's a dark kat that has no info on it...
Edit: And not everyone will try to look on SK files for more info... I know Garry's mod allow you to use other Steam game physics and model but IDK if it work for SK, anyone can confirm this before I get Garry's mod? (because that's all I would do with Garry's mod...)

I hope a Curse and/or Sleep
I hope a Curse and/or Sleep Undead Kat Boss is en route available for Tier 3 with tokens and weapons.
Gooodbye FSC!

What dark ritual?
It is not a Battle Sprite.

@Eurydice If it isn't a battle sprite, is it a SL enemy?
Thu, 01/17/2013 - 11:55

I thought it was obvious.
This is clearly not a Battle Sprite. You can see that it possesses no harness.

Battle sprites were created by knights. Kats were not created by knights.

From the mention of Kat
From the mention of Kat themed equipment and the picture of the Black Kat it sounds like either a Danger Mission, Expansion Mission, or possibly a new boss strata. I am personally betting on Expansion Mission or boss strata.
If it's a new boss strata it would be very amusing if it was not available via the Rank Missions. That would definitely breathe some new life into the Arcade.

@Gwen That'd be great if it was in the arcade only, It'd encourage people to get off their rump and get some recipes while they're at it.

It seems wonderful but...
I'm certain this will be DLC; it's not exactly because I'm broke that I'm saddened by this, it's that the last DLC had no replay value due to how dreadful many of its components were.
Mortar gremlins weren't hard to beat, just annoying due to how they'd keep spinning and you'd have to wait for them to stop or freeze/burn them.
Battlepods aren't challenging, they're tedious. Just waiting for it to become vulnerable was the most aggravating thing; also, the no status thing makes haze bombers near useless against them.
After spending 50 mist and about fortyfive minutes, you get about 4K crowns; after you've crafted the masks, it's probable that you'll never want to step foot in it ever again.
I hate battlepods, fo' rizzle; it's like waiting for a pot to boil just so you can hit it a bit.
I'm just afraid this DLC will just be another chore to get nice weapons as well.
Pessimist aside; I'm so glad there's gonna be something new to try soon! I wasn't that thrilled about the guild hall updates but I LOVE the idea of new things to do PvE wise.

You know what I would like to see?
A robot cowboy that uses a Sentenza-esque gun (deals shadow damage, resistant to pierce damage) that rides a horse which it can dismount from (while dismounted the horse can attack to deal element damage, resistant to element damage) in a classic dusty desert where the buzzards circle knights with low health and all kinds of weird robot-animal freaks wander the dunes.
Been listening to a lot of Johnny Cash the past couple days, can you tell?

All the lonely people, where do they all come from?
As much as I hate fiends and everything to do with them, a kat boss stratum would be a great addition to the t3 clockworks. Make it arcade only and bam, life is breathed into the arcade once again. I do hope it isn't DLC though. I would much rather have a normal ol' clockworks boss over DLC.

My bet, without actually offering anything
It is a new Tier 1 boss:
- Nick makes new Kat based gear. Most likely a crafting line.
- Vanaduke in Tier 3 is already a Shadow element boss, and Tier 2 has two bosses already.
My two cents, I mean reasons. :P
Thu, 01/17/2013 - 19:07

Cowboy idea
Nice. Horse should have a rush attack regardless, then the cowboy can walk and pewpew. If he uses a charge attack while on the horse, he would still be able to move, and that would be pretty potent.
Also, I'm seeing people talk about angelic helms. OOO, make a helmet with a feind bonus and a curse weakness (with some other defense compensation). You will never get cursed while fighting feinds unless you use a faust, but that's a shadow weapon. On the other hand, undead + curse armor makes sense.

I'm betting on T2 boss, after all the dark ritual kat is at moorcraft (start of T2).

Cooperstown, ND
Event only prestige mission like Winterfest. So it's a mini-boss like Pumpking taking place in Candlestick.
My guess anyways.

We seriously need more curse enemies
So Angelic sets would actually be VALUABLE!!!
th-that just makes too much seance for it not to have been planed. I bet its for some boss as a special mob of sorts.
