Swamp King (Ogre) Credo Idea

Postby ZantetsukenX » Mon Mar 18, 2019 3:39 pm

I was playing today, going through a swamp collecting dragonflies, getting bit by midges and thought it would be cool to have a swamp terrain credo.
Some examples of what could be possible rewards would be :
Improved quality on plants found in swamp.
Improved quality on creatures found in swamp.
Faster (unmitigated) movement speed in swamps.
Immunity to midges.

Quests could follow the same format as other credos:
Deliver X to quest giver. X being a swamp related item.
Eat Frog legs or Candleberry or lizard on a stick.
Study X curio.
Pick X plant y times.
Capture x creature y times.

There's a few problems overall that would need tweaked. The quests might be too easy when compared to some other credos. Immunity to midges (and the credo in general) promotes swamp botting. It would only be useful to people who happen to be near a swamp. But overall I think it could be an interesting credo to add. Maybe put it with mystic as the pre-req for getting it or something. Whatever works best and makes logical sense.

Special credo for Granger Shrek sounds cool, but:

Makes it almost mandatory for PvP.

Immunity to midges.


Would make it very desirable and generic.

Just my 2 cents. :)

I think that it is a great idea for a credo.
BUT, there are already plenty of credos, and with the current system its quite difficult to get more than few of them.
So is this credo really worth it, because most players are probably not going to get it.

Level 5 of this credo should give you green skin and ability to eat raw onions.

I mean, swamps are already a great place for getting resources, idk if there needs to be a whole credo made for them. Where does it end, forester's credo, field credo, oceanman credo, river credo??

^ This. Well, not the green skin, that's dumb.
jorb: I don't want *your* money. You are rude and boring. Go away.
Sevenless: We already know real life has some pretty shitty game mechanics, it's why we're here instead.
Avu: The end is near it has finally come to pass: I agree with Lunarius...
Shubla: There are also other reasons to play this game than to maximize your stat gain.

Before You would finish this credo, your party would have leather armor already, maybe not far from bronze swords.

Well, you are right, it can be useble only if you can buy it as first credo, and later only add some damage to players by midges, and maby little undestroyable armore will help you first time

Always in favour of new credos.
No movement impairment would make it valuable for fighters
