Simple question.
Do you want sleep to return? If so, why?
Or
Would you rather like a new status? If so, why and what status?
----------------
I would personally like a new status because sleep is kind of broken and is sort of just freeze.
Sleep vs a new status. What would you prefer?
@Thunderskull:
*Sleep cannot be reinflicted upon yourself. If you're already asleep, the duration doesn't reset. Once the Knight has woken up, you can be put back to sleep.
*Maximum Sleep Weakness increases the timer to 9 seconds. I don't have Maximum yet but I believe Maximum Resistance is 3 Seconds.
*Slooms inflict moderate Sleep.
*You may be woken up if you have enough Sleep Resistance. I think it's 3 Units of Sleep Resistance
*You heal 0.25 Pips of Health every second after you pass the fourth tick.
Sleep is still in the game, just not used anywhere. Well, I say "not used anywhere" but the ironmight plate set has a sleep weakness. Sleep is a broken status, and I would much rather see stun repurposed as a useful status effect by making it work like sleep without the regen. Stun would be unremovable, while freeze is removable and does damage overtime.
Sleep. Anything new is probably just going to make everyone here cringe at how unbalanced it is.
@Arkate
Stun is at least mildly useful... or at least it would be if the monsters didn't already act like they have brain damage.
I remember downloading a (probably fake) picture of 2 new statuses from 2011 I think. Muddle, and doom. I could have sworn I've seen them before though... EDIT: found it Here
Those two are already used ingame though, although there are quite a few statuses in the files that aren't...
They're already in-game? WHERE'S MY MUDDLE BOMB? WHAT ABOUT MY DOOM CANNON?!
Speaking of statuses, what about those status.ko sounds in the game files? The voices are weirdo, especially the freeze one .__.
Doom will likely NEVER be player usable.
I think muddle is likely a confusion effect. Could be a lot of fun. Although I prefer the blind suggestions floating around.
"Doom" reduces your defense to zero. It goes by a different icon now though, a yellow isosceles. "Muddle" buffs attack, defense, ASI and CTR or something.
You mean lowers. But holy tuna. Time to make a "Doombringer" thread.
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Isn't doom just a recon's death mark?
And I want my sleep haze bomb.
Doom just lowers your defense to zero? I was thinking of something else completely... http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Doom_%28Status%29
Sure that's not just a sloombargo?
Also @OP: Having played this sleep level, it's... well let's say if I was OOO, I wouldn't put it back in just yet. Or maybe ever.
@Arkate
You mean lowers
No, I meant what I said.
Sleep really needs some tweaking to get it right, but there is a good amount of difference between sleep and freeze the 2 main complete immobilizing statuses (freeze is more main of course :P). Sleep:Multiple hits required to wake a knight up(I dunno maybe pls reconfirm),Healing(I don't likes),Allies cant help one who is asleep,and the knight can't used remedies so the knight must wait it out and take the damage. Freeze: Y'all know freeze, do I need to explain? Cause I'm not :P
