What would you like for this year on Ryzom? - GENERAL

#100 Added by Placio 6 years ago [en]

It splits between daggers and hand-to-hand, so maybe a wood knuckles weapon for h2h instead of our amp boxing gloves? Or give the gloves a bit more punch:)

Why ?
The purpose of close combat (boxing gloves) is to increase your parry stats while you are not handling weapons.
Why, would you kill that ? (which is an interesting stats to improve btw)]

more options , more is more. again, I'm okay with balance. But having an entire skill tree just for parry, when you can't hit anything with your amps... yeah we can maybe have knuckles or something one day

Sorry. wood knuckles in addition to boxing gloves not replacing. Or as I added make gloves a bit more powerful.

I'm also totally fine if the only branch that results in base 250 parry remains the amp branch. Even if you max the knuckles, shells, claws, gloves (whatever) it doesn't have to give a parry base stat.

hence boxing amp skill tree remains relevant

Initial complain is about merging 2 branches, reducing the amount of options.

ah sorry, its confusing. i guess gillana said something about daggers cahnging to close combat. then placio and i ran with it in another direction

my apologies. consider our input as another idea in this case

i would not agree to less branches or changing existing branches, just adding

More close combat options would be nice. Right now, you have bare hands which would be silly to use against armor, amps which you really don't want to punch with unless you want to save the time of equipping/removing them, and daggers, which are 150% faster for reasons than either I do not get.

How about a close combat weapon that does more damage than fists but uses the H2H skill just like punching with amps? Replace the Zun with Zerx claws to make something a little less zappy and a bit more slappy! Maybe up their speed to depict how they are more of for trained martial artists than simple brawling.

Of course, a lot of folks use amps to train H2H so they can enchant-kill. To avoid making swapping to/from amps the optimal way to train, how about "Combat amps" with enhanced speed and damage in close combat at the expense of having +0% in Heal/Affie speed and power? Would it be possible to give them a permanent, non-removable range penalty that doesn't increase the sap/HP cost the way simply increasing Malus would though? I'd still like them to be a close combat weapon.

Do not assume that you speak for all just because you are the loudest voice; there are many who disagree that simply have no desire to waste words on you.

OR! OR! OR! even better! make a mission rite that will teach the homin martial arts and if you finish the rite, your H2H damage will increase!? sounds good to me!

the mission rite is ofc lore-friendly, like a homin hermit that discovered and has been keeping secret how to channel Ki> ( can be called different in atys ofc, but functions the same just like Ki ).

You could combine the two and have that rite as a way to introduce the weapon, but the reason I went the way I did was simply because I feel that it would be a lot easier and a lot less risky to add stuff that works within the existing framework than to modify the framework.

Also look at how fast a homin can move their hands when you give them a dagger or two. I've always took that to mean that H2H attack speed is limited more by the care required to avoid breaking one's hand than any other factor. Amps are made to channel magic, not protect the hand. And while regular LA/MA/HA gloves may protect the hand from many forms of harm, they aren't exactly made to prevent one's fingers from bending in harmful ways, so they really aren't much better for punching than a bare fist. But if you had handwear that did not have any concern with retaining the dexterity to hold other weapons, that handwear could be a weapon. One light enough to have speed comparable to a dagger... but that might require instruction (NPC rite?) to use effectively.

My understanding is that what we call amps were originally intended to be the cestus or boxing glove of Ryzom, and that staffs were to be the spell casting assistance item.

The only problem with using amps for boxing is "wasting" mats to make a melee weapon amp (not gonna use sup zun for that one) and the fact that the speed and damage stats don't seem to actually do something.

The cestus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cestus is basically an improved set of brass knuckles.
With the skill that our art folk have shown, I think it could be made. The trick would be to work it into the crafting system and the combat system.

Cette année, j'aimerais voire plus de PvP sur Ryzom. Je pense que beaucoup de joueurs ont été dégoutés du PvP par de très bons joueurs qui ont abusé de leur force sous des prétextes RP. Il faut redorer le blason du PvP au travers d'évènements et le faire découvrir "doucement" à ceux qui ne s'y sont jamais essayés... pas en leur tapant dessus mais en les formant :)

Je pense que c'est quelque-chose qu'il appartiens aux joueurs de faire! Si vous voulez de bons adversaires, oubliez le RP quelques temps et formez les! On a tous à gagner à jouer ensemble et à apprendre à mieux se connaître, qu'on joue dans la même faction ou non. A la fin on se tappe dessus, mais c'est beaucoup plus fun de tapper sur quelqu'un qu'on connait et avec qui on discute HRP qu'en frustrant un adversaire qu'on ne connait pas et qu'on ne respecte pas.

J'ai déjà eu l'occasion de le faire et j'ai trouvé un vrai intérêt pour le PvP chez des joueurs ouvertement anti-PvP... qui en fait ne savaient rien du PvP. Aujourd'hui quelques guildes maîtrisent cet aspect du jeu (les maraudeurs bien sur, quelques Karas, Les Larmes et une poignée de Kamis), ce serait vraiment chouette qu'on arrive à transmettre ce savoir faire pour donner le jour à des combats plus intenses et plus équilibrés, pour le plaisir de tous!

... et sinon dans un tout autre registre, j'aimerais beaucoup que le bug des fenêtre de chat qui se mélangent soit réglé (untel me répond mais sa réponse apparait de la fenêtre de discussion d'un autre...), aujourd'hui c'est vraiment le bug qui me dérange le plus au quotidien.

... sorry, it's in French! hope google translate will be helpfull ;)

PvP

I agree with this. I didnt like PvP at all before Virg/Bucs/Others had these tiny PvP hangouts in Void. And like you said, I think it belongs to us players to do.

(Tho as in last PvP tournament my team lost every battle, better I just join and not try to teach!)

Zarden

... and if not in a completely different note, I would love the bug chat window that mix is set (so and so replied but his answer appears in the chat window of another ...) aujourd 'hui is really the bug that bothers me most every day.

I think this happens more often if you switch between virtual desktops and get new tells there. Need to test this more someday..

C'est un bug ou une maladresse car il suffit d'effleurer la touche de tabulation pour passer d'une fenêtre à l'autre et même que ça m'arrive tout le temps !
