Nomad's Staff

Post by bitza »

i'd really like a staff, like the dude in this picture:

for functionality, the nomad's staff could either reduce stamina drain while running, or reduce the likelihood of being attacked by animals. i don't think either effect would be too overpowered since the staff would take either one or both hand slots.

Reduced stamina sounds good, but I dont think that you could run with a staff.

we have "Völva's Wand" and "Ranger's Cape" and it could provide same bonuses like credo but less amount (or another bonuses for traveling)

Personally, I think a good buff would be taming animals requires less cycles. (When Paired with the credo)

I think things like this are a better approach to fast travel then the teleportation mechanics we have now. Make travel easier, your tread faster, but not instant.
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.

and every ganker/fighter will have this credo to switch to a stick to sprint around like sonic. rip to anyone that doesnt have this credo i guess.
see homo sexuality trending,. do not do that.

i have extreme downs.
i'm not proposing a credo. it's literally a staff, that you equip in your hand slots. so that every ganker/fighter that wants to use this for that purpose won't be able to equip a weapon at the same time.

"weapon switch timer" here to reduce this effect
fighter with faster swim/ridges already "rip to anyone that doesnt have this credo"
