Gamemode Stronghold - beta this evening?(CET)

- You will use your own items, however, they might not be unlocked right away or come at a price (temporary resources, not your real gold).
- A 'round' means the total time played on a scene. During a round the dummy can be destroyed several times. It just means that you don't have to worry to start building a castle, and losing every progress within a few minutes.

Wait. People didn't get this already? Damn, you have to feed people with teaspoons these days.

Ah, fantastic. Much much better!

If you assume anything about cRPG then you are a fool, give the slew of history of troll posts and weird issues from the past.

I prefer hard data not speculation of the community that is pretty much worthless.

Awesome looks like a fun game mode

[Teeth]

If this shit is fun, I don't even need xp and gold. Just saying...

[Thucydides]

we should get multis for achieving objectives, not just destroying a dummy. Like controling a key bridge or resource, or building a completed wall/castle.

I didn't assume. I just read the HOLY EQUUS AFRICANUS ASINUSS post and understood what he meant. My troll detector is also highly sophisticated and chadz have been very decent with his posts for a long time anyway.

The idea seems awesome as long as the multiplier factor can be worked out to be more equal, the same system as battle won't work when the rounds are so long.

One big question is how are resources going to be allocated? If you team holds 3 mines or whatever do they go to a team pool? Individual pool? Who chooses how to build shit with what money.

So that means I could use a simple sword until we unlock the masterwork long espada eslanova.

Yes, although I would take an axe (high damage, fast, shieldbraking) or a mace (fast, medium damage but blunt damage, knockdown) instead. The earlier swords are not that good. Sword, on the other hand, is nice and the first good 1h sword in my opinion. Maybe the Nordic Sword if your not that keen on stabbing. Still, it's nice having to use lower tier weapon a bit, then go for the heavier ones. I'm looking forward to this

Also this is a nice place for the MILITIA to fight! We're already using low end gear (not peasant but not far from) so in the beginning we'll be more used to the equipment.

I have a fond relationship with the simple sword, along with the long arming sword and the long espada eslanova, they're my 3 babies :3

Damage is no issue for me so I need a relatively long weapon as well as fast one, the sword combines both, with 10 ps the damage agaisnt other people, who wont be really armored by the time I use the sword will be more than sufficient.

This also means having heirloomed low-tier items give an advantage early-game.

Omg, must.. have.. full low-tier +3 set!

Hold on, the long arming sword is MY little baby. :O You were that random chick I knocked up! WE CAN FINALLY BE A FAMILY AGAIN!

(Yeah, the simple sword is totally cool with 10 PS, but for 6ish you wanna have something with a bigger punch. Maces are, and will always be, awesome against everyone. Try one. Although it might be bad if your slow. What's your athl?)
