Imladris' Ring Hero

--- Zitat von: Saruman der Bunte am 23. Feb 2016, 19:41 ---@DieWalküre: Well, the elves are sad to leave Middle-Earth, and after the ring is destroyed their realms will fade. They also have the longing for the glory of past ages. So Elrond as High King of the Noldor, restoring the old splendour makes sense throughout.

I think it doesn't make so much sense, though.
Because the pivotal fact is that Elrond doesn't have and wouldn't have the intention and will of achieving something of that kind, accepting the ineluctable destiny of the Elves and remembering what type of effects the One Ring eventually displays (in his total refusal of the One Ring, I always found him a bit 'purer' than Galadriel, regarding this very specific aspect).
That's why I believe it would be highly difficult moving throughout this what-if possibility to seek for not so inaccurate concepts.
In fact, the solution that has been found exactly reflects the fact that Imladris doesn't want the One Ring ;)

Ok. A pity. I've always loved the High King mechanic! 8-| Elrond is my favourite Elven-character of the third age (sorry, Galadriel fans! ;)). But I don't doubt that the solution the team came up with will be excellent too.

i think that for the concept of the fellowship it could be a unit controllable by Imladris, a unit like the black riders in Mordor with some powers, it can be just five random heroes from other factions, for exemple, 30% chance to get (Bard, legolas, Gimli, faramir, boromir, gloin, aragorn, haldir, and some others heroes that COULD be in the council of Elrond) :)

One thing that I have in my mind that when Elrond (I suppose he is a ring hero) gets the ring he could gain new abilities (or the old ones remain with stronger effects) but when he uses some of them it cost's him not hit points (like Zaphragor) but experience. This could be a reference as the ring corrupts the minds of people. So all his ring abilities would be available at level 1 and he would get exp faster than other heroes due to that his abilities cost exp points and have cooldown (ofc).

I like this concept, although I would make some abilities be more than level 1 just to up the stakes.
Walküre:
Elrond is very likely not to be the Ring Hero of Imladris anymore. If you take a look at the previous posts, it is explained that the Edain Team will probably opt for an alternative and innovative Ring System for Imladris; the idea of a pure and sacred faction as Rivendell using the One Ring has always been problematic.
The new system will exactly reflect the fact that Imladris doesn't want the One Ring, and it rejects it. I can't say more for obvious reasons, but I sincerely invite you to wait for the release, or until the Edain Team reveals other details :)
