More Animals & related buff accessories & equipment

Postby Sarge » Wed Nov 11, 2009 3:37 am

Lots of guys seem to be able to 1-shot even lvlX bears - add lvlsXI though XX to increase challenge and balance out quality?

These animals also suggested in line with potential future continent and localised specific fauna & flora to "create" different looks and traits (refer races/cultures thread, OP by BTaylor)

Swamp/Marshlands
Aligators/Crocodiles
- Crocodile skin armor, more resistant than hide leather armor
- Coin purse
- Leatherworking skill

Snow
Snow Leopards/Sabre Tooth Tigers
- Paws crafted into Claw Gloves for unarmed combat damage buff
- Fur Coat and Fur Boots to endure snow terrain (leatherworking), assuming health reduction in blizzards without wearing these

Fox
- Davey Crocket style hat, Intelligence or Agility buff

Wolfs
- Found in forests, but very rare
- Paws crafted into Claw Gloves for unarmed combat damage buff, less than Snow Leopards/Sabre Tooth Tiger
- Wolf tooth pendant + Stealth

Mountains
Mountain Goats
- Milk
- Goat Horn Helmet/Goat Head Staff buff black skills
Hawks/Eagles
- Tail Feather Pendant, Perception Buff

To have various type areas have players have different appearances than others will take a lot more than these few, but thought it to be a start. If there's interest, please add your suggestions and expand.

That sounds pretty good to me.
Might I suggest that there is no limit to animal level? Why not have it increase as endlessly as any other Q level?

While I like the idea of alligator skin money pouches, let's not prevent newbies from having money storage... so maybe have a linen money bag, too. It all depends on whether someone can have more than a hundred coins and still be unable to find alligator skin for a reasonable amount.
Surprise.

Well, I grew up on a farm and when we were kids, we made or own coin purses... this might shock some and might not surprise farm boys/girls at all:

- Deer scrotum + course salt + cure over time + string = coin purse

There's another option for noobs able to kill lvlI deer... but is likely not exactly suitable to an all ages game :o :lol:

That would be rather awesome.

I like these suggestions, and I'd love to have one of those goat horn helmets. :lol:

If by 1-shot you mean 'one hit,' you are out of your mind. They have over 1k hp!

I wouldn't mind if they added stronger animals though. The stronger the animals get, the faster high-LP characters can make even more LP.

I love Kung Fu Hustle! I also think you have a lot of great suggestions OP but I would also like to see more catchable critters like the rabbit and chicken.
