Titel: New abillity for Thorin Oakenshield +Other stuff
Beitrag von: ™Æ¿® Aragorn £ ‡™ am 3. Aug 2015, 11:06
I just watched the hobbit, and I got this idea for one Thorin's abilities.

The name of the abillity would be
Madness of the king

Thorin would pull his bow out, and take a shot at a target hero. (You all can guess which scene of the movie this is from ;) )

He would have a very high chance of missing (1/6  chance at hitting or so)
If he hits the chosen hero, the hero dies instantly.
If he misses, nothing happens  :D

.

Oh yeah, and I have played with world builder, and I noticed something

In world builder, there is a unit called "Khazad veteran spear-men."

And, I just had an idea with that:

What if you had the option to arm Khazad veterans with spears?
I mean, you've got the module already   ;)

I have to say that none of the a abilities are necessary nor so good over all!Thorin Abilities are perfect the way they are at least that is my opinion! :-)

I don't like this proposal.  Thorin is not a hero killer for one, so this ability doesn't fit.  I also don't think an ability should be able to outright kill a hero in one shot.  Balancing the ability with chance is never a good way of doing things.

The miss chance has something to do with how he could not hit anything in the movies, and I mean EVER; but if he did hit something for once, don't you think he would of killed it instantly? Look how close the arrow went to Thranduil's head  :D

Well first of all in the forest he was dizzy and thata why missed !And second he missed Thranduil on purpose,it was a warning shot! :-) And every hero shooting an arrow could have killed anyone if he hits him the head so it is not like only Thorin can but others too like Faramir,Cathean,Aranarth,Lurtz and etc. You get my point! :-)

Okay, the point of this is the fact that Thorin should get a bow ingame (Since he used one quite a bit in the movies, and Aragorn can use one too; to be fully honest)
And I thought it would be a good way to implement it without adding a toggle.

And can someone discuss what they think about the Khazad dum spear-men idea?  8-| [uglybunti] :P

I recently have had the same sensation as well for other matters  :)

Anyway, I totally agree with Dáin, Thorin's abilities are well integrated and in line with his role  :)
I personally think that, once the Edain Team has implemented his long-waited royal armour, his concept has finally become almost 'perfect' and very satisfying.
