Gifts of Lórien

<< < (2/12) > >>

Gandalf7000:
I like it. It's better than the current concept. Highlights the roles of the present heroes, which is what the Gifts of Lorien should do.

OakenShield224:
I like these ideas. I'm not entirely sure about the magic resistance for Thranduil though. It seems a bit limited. Maybe expand it to elemental damage (fire, frost and poison) as well?

Walküre:
I was thinking about elemental damage as well, but then it seemed to me too much. This magical shield provides him with a permanent defence; wouldn't including elemental damage make him too resistant? Keep in mind that his new level-5 ability (which I hope will be passive) is to increase armour against monsters and award him a splash-type attack. Together with his silver armour :)

OakenShield224:
I guess so. If necessary, I guess you could reduce the total resistance value (i.e. the value that the armour increases by).

--- Zitat von: Walküre am 24. Jan 2019, 13:48 ---I get that the current Arcane Shield functions quite weirdly, and it even makes less of a sense, when circumscribed in its actual context; I mean, why in the world would a magical shield spawn so casually? Thranduil is no sorcerer either. So, I suppose that the shield would go hand in hand with the Lady's gem quite well. In my opinion, both as a graphical and conceptual feature, this special typology of protection was and is still revolutionary. Seeing it altogether gone from the Mod would result in a considerable loss

It wouldn't be gone, I suggest to move it to CaH. There it would be unique enough. :P
Yes, bubble could be visual upgrade of magic resistance, which would mean that bubble would be still active.  xD ... It doesn't really help to players who just don't like bubble not only conceptually, but also visually.
Well, that is maybe the problem - bubble has quite aggresive rich blue color, that's why doesn't naturally fit to Middle-earth, where white magic is primarily represented through flashes of light.
So I suggest use light blue, rather translucent color, for bubble shield. :)
It'll help.

Yes, that was the idea. :)
But mainly I wanted to make it more unique than generic armor upgrades. I always considered Edain mod strong in the details.
Lorien's mystical nature was important for me, too. Enchanted things, mystical waters, lanterns ... also connections to nature (Grimbeorn) or even ancient nature (Ents).

Gifts shouldn't be so strong, rather cosmetic upgrades which add slight buffs, cause they are now linked to Galadriel's skillset - their purpose is channeling her abilities. ;)
