Experience for triggering a troll, pls.

Postby Vigilance » Tue Mar 22, 2016 1:11 am

All of the troll related products are ridiculously high in experience cost, so I think it'd only be fair to give the poor (probably dead) miner an experience when he unearths a troll. Me and my buds were tossing around an idea, and the text could probably go to this effect (except more jorby, of course)

"You hear the earth around you crumble as it gives way to a small cavern, inside of which a foul smelling green creature resides. With a beat of its chest and a roar of anger, you realize the troll is about to end your life. Do you run, or do you fight?"

in the current state of things the miners gonna die 9 times out of 10, but it's still worth the idea.

Maybe not the brightest plan to pop up a window which is hindering your clicking around in panic mode while trying to flee...

indeed. how about 2 different experiences one for fleeing a troll and one for killing one?
Newbie and noob do not mean the same thing.

Neither do figuratively and literally.

I've never had an issue with experiences blocking anything, because I don't play zoomed super far in and I play on an average sized monitor. I am making this suggestion with that in mind. ;)

Maybe experience for its death or butchering it. I'm not a fan of one at first sight.

Also if you got at first sight wouldn't you just loose the exp when you died anyway? Making it pointless for dead miners...? But I do think some sort of exp for trolls would be cool seeing as it doesn't happen very often!

It would incentivize you know, not dying.

I got away initially from my first troll, but it killed my other character there because I'm not a freak of nature with two autonomous sets of arms/keyboards and mice. :)

What would be the text for triggering a troll? "Check your mining privilege, shitlord!"?
