Insects and Craft Curos.

[_Khorne_]

I dont know if this has been mentioned before or not, it doesnt seem to have been...But my idea is to add a few more insects into the world of Haven & Hearth.

Fire Flies - They fly around like silkmoths, lady bugs, and dragon flies. However they only appear at night, and can only be seen when emitting light. (not study-able)

Fly - Flies could appear flying around the dead corpses of animals and hearthlings. It would help actually explain how a fleshy dead hearthling corpse suddenly turns into a bare skeleton. It would also explain the despawning of dead animals. (study-able)

Craftables
Glass Jar - 5 to 10 peices of raw glass. A glass jar could be used to hold fire flies. (10 being the max) The radius of the emitting light would increase as you added flies to the jar. This would be used as a light source and used by new hearthlings for the most part. (Equip-able)

Lantern - 4 sticks and 4 raw glass. you could put candles into it, equip it, and once lit you would gain a new type of buff. "No Evil Shall Escape My Sight" This would increase your perception. And aid you in the tracking of scents.

Curos:
1 Fly + 1 Spider + 1 Spider Web = Tripsy Trapsy Trapped Fly. LP base = whatever you think is fair.

What do you think?

Tripsy Trapsy Trapped Fly.

These are some pretty nice ideas, tho, make fireflies only spawn on swamps.

But Fire Flies are usually found in like open fields and shit IRL. Nice name for the caught fly though

[SacreDoom]

Trapped Fly.



Fly.





Firefly and jar stuff. Inb4 Legend of Zelda on this one, btw.

lol, nice. You make those yourself or just find them at Image Shack?

[SacreDoom]

I'm the forums' nerdy wanna-be jorb artist, I made them myself.

Damn man... btw, I like the cacooned fly. But Jorb works hard on his art work ;D we should honor that by going with the original spider. http://i54.tinypic.com/27zggg2.jpg
But seriously, holy shit. Good work man. Your pixel artwork is phenomenal.

What if you could put fireflies into a jar and the more you put in (max of say 5-10) the more LP it give like being able to study multiple fireflies at once.

And can't you feed spiders silk moths to increase their q, I think flies would be a simpler version.

[beef2]

I like all of your ideas except for the description of the fly; if they spawn around dead hearthlings, then people could easily kill alts to collect flies. Perhaps flies should only appear on swamps as dragonflies do, but they'd be uncommon.
I especially like your craftable curio idea, and the buff increasing perception is nice too.
