If you saw it, comment. If you have any more ideas for these, share with us.
1. Battle sprite project contest - loooooots of players actually want valestone and moonstone to have their sprites, some of them started posting topics on suggestions forums. As we have too much of these suggestions which actually drown in sea of AT removing spam(you can actually do it yourselves in options), there should be a battle sprite contest created, so that we can get all our suggestions there and choose the best ones, you know. Otherwise we should get the gate construction back into game.
2. New sprite equipment: backside - as we have only harnesses which only alter damage, I introduce new equipment piece: backside, which can do much and much more to your sprite! The default backside is called Plain/Clear Backside. Examples for onthers:
- chilly backside(drakon only) - change your drakon's element to ice/water, make it shoot ice bolt which freezes enemies and has similar traits to fire bolt, all skills' element becomes ice/wter and drakon's color goes cyan, white and blue;
- pollen backside(as well) - like higher, but element is wood/nature/leaf/grass/whatever-you-want, the effect of it is poison etc.;
- ion backside(too) - as well, like higher, but element is electro, the effect is shock etc., hope you get it;
- rotary backside(all sprites) - makes your sprites' first skills become circular, like firebolt creates a big boom, ray of light creates a sanctuary harming enemies, and caustic quills create a spiky circle, hope you got it;
3. Refilling emergncy revive - store your overheal to recharge your emergency revive.
4. More for fun/emote comments, like /facepalm, /hug(your sprite), /stroke(your sprite) etc.
5. Bash effect altering/new trinkets - okay, new group of trinkets introduced for this one - stun/fire/freeze/poison/shock/curse/sleep/damage bash ring. Wearing a proper ring will make your bash cause a corresponding effect on enemies. Of course, they will have an alchemy path, so that they will all(except from stun one) will have 1-5 stars(stun only 2-5).
Post your opinion and idea.
1. Having a battle sprite creation contest sounds nice, as it allows OOO to get ideas for new sprites while getting direct community feedback, which would greatly increase player morale. As long as this contest is OOO sponsored, and not just some fan thing then it's a great idea. But they are intending to do something about players altering gates, so the mineral gates will not come back.
2. I've actually suggested giving Drakon the ability to change statuses as well, back around when sprite first came out. But it was pointed out that the only way for this to be fair is if all the other sprites got a similar, or at the very least equally impressive add-on. The rotary backside can be used by all sprites, so it doesn't count. Also altering the function of the skills like the rotary does seems a bit too much, that should only be done by leveling up your sprite not adding an attachment to it.
3. 1 ER per floor is more than enough. Any more would potentially give players infinite lives. If you die too much on a mission, just learn to leave.
4. Yes, we really do need more emotes. Especially ones relating to sprites (not sarcasm, just in case someone tries to say otherwise).
5. The bash command isn't meant to be an offensive attack, but rather simply a more aggressive version of the shield bump. Giving it offensive qualities like this would allow players an infinite supply of any status they want at any time, which would not be appreciated. And even if this was implemented, a curse version would be too overpowered, while a shock/freeze/sleep version would defeat the purpose of the bash.
