Title: Does anyone want to see a ball and chain.
Post by: Akhooey on November 28, 2011, 12:28:35 am: I had an idea about Ball and chain getting into the game and wanted to see if others like that idea.

Post by: Slamz on November 28, 2011, 12:43:33 am: I would love to see one but I don't think the engine supports it. I don't think something like that is moddable.

Post by: RandomDude on November 30, 2011, 11:11:00 pm: it could almost be a ranged weapon where the ball and chain spins round when you hold down the lmb and then gets thrown up to its maximun length at the target

I had an idea about Ball and chain getting into the game and wanted to see if others like that idea.

You could actually see 2 balls & a chain if I spawned my char naked but unfortunately its a bannable offense nowadays. Few of the lucky oldtimers had a pleasure of seeing it tho, you could ask them for a description and then kindly ask Khajjira (or whatever her name is) to make a high quality picture based on their memories. :wink:

Post by: Fluid on December 10, 2011, 09:57:16 pm: it's so worth it just for the hilarity of no-block unblockable flails on horseback.
seriously, this needs to go in.

With a shield.

I suppose it wouldn't be able to. It could be a throwing weapon with auto-retrieve of ammo (1) and it would not have a melee mode. It would need to have extreme drop-off (short range).

To make it worth using, it should have two bonuses, such as Knockdown / Shield Bonus or Crushthrough / Knockdown.
