if #1 seems to overpowering the price could be raised to say 1m but at least then people would buy them instead of the 1 pair ingame now and it wouldent mess with santas boots/boots of haste any


they would do fine for training only or something but would totally suck pvp

i think #1 would be the best option but increase the -20 ac a bit to -25/-30 ac
with the -3 str on the item no one will use it on anything but a mage or for some odd reason a cleric

[Rappy_Ninja]

changed

[Gaddy]

I would actually use versions 1 and 2.

But I have doubts about paying for either of them. That price takes dex to it's extreme values, and I don't think it's anywhere near worth wild.
Perhaps 1m for -10 ac, -1str, +1 dex, -2 char.
Would put a negative on every class, with the dex bonus, but they could still be used in training this way...

wot bout sg's thn ?

[alone]

SGs are a basic game set. They've been around too long to change now. These boots have been around a long time also, but when they were introduced they were such a bad item, no one bothered with them. So it's only logical they get changed.

[Muse]

Supported for #1.

nightmist is a fantasy world, a wepon can even make you more ugly... picky picky

[Dark]

Supported #2 as i think i would actually buy them for that

[Rappy_Ninja]

lets all sell our accts and buy mages/druids

Edited by Rappy_Ninja, 07 February 2006 - 04:12 AM.

[Sneaky]

I wouldn't buy #1 but would buy #2

[Perfection]

both is cool, first one i'd use on my rangers second on my mages

[Rappy_Ninja]

scrap the whole idea unless its #1 or #3 because this game doesnt need anymore mage useing noobs #2 is no longer an option

all we need is more mage/druids winning events

...Well, come on now.
I don't think a mage is better off with ONE more dex than 10 more armor or 2 more dex than an extra wis, char, and 15 armor?
Druids pretty much the same--dex is not important enough for them to give up 3 str and armor.

Really though, I don't see much point to number 2 except for using on a dwarven/ling cleric or something of the sort. -shrug-

[Dracon]

just a curiousity...
does that mean we should buy lots of feathered boots?

thats how i'd like to see them

these could be used for many things, thieves stealing, wouldn't over-power mages

if your not that hard up for 1int why not. druids dont need much dex, but if you want to be fancy slap some gaunts of virtue with these on. clerics be nice for dwarfs, would lack armor but who cares you got call upon deity. fighter may lack 3 strength..but theres enough equip out there to play about with.

So you threw a suggestion out there, and now you're taking it back because the option you don't like isn't winning?

And you mention the "mage noobs"; what about the "20 party noobs" who's rangers would have another point of dex. if number one was added?

after seeing every person vote for #2 and they are all known mage/druid #####s 1 dex still wouldent make rangers even HALF as good as zerks because they are hell loads overpowered esp when you get csotws on every single one you get to have a crit you NEVER need to heal again and doing 3x the damage of a ranger

Loses 14 armor for 1 dex against vindicator's boots. It's not an entirely serious suggestion, but could be kinda cool if it was put in lol. I figure this should make rangers better against zerkers, and maybe won't affect much else.

thx for your time

And edit: also doesn't mess with existing quest items due to class restriction.

Rangers already rape zerkers...i've tested this my self, i have 105 armor rangers, 13 of them, ive dueld 12v12 against zerks, 10 zerks with blades of times on, against 23 dex/105 armor rangers, rangers obliterate zerks due to high armor
giving them 1 more dex will just over-power them, -10 armor is nothing still have 95 armor, these boots have to be balanced for all classes

Why don't we add more paci items while we're at it..I think we need some more of those too

And bad alan, no!

I believe Frank was holding you back Rappy. Every since getting rid of him for mullet man you have actually came up with some good ideas.

Now if I can only find some help for me the world will be perfect.

[Raylen]

Yes but. I like rangers! And everyone knows zerks are for nerds anyway, so lets make em more easy to kill.

Bumping this topic--

My suggestion:

Armor base: -5, Can be worn by: clerics, druids, fighters, mages, paladins, rangers, thieves, pacifists, Description: A special piece of footwear used by the people of Windia for 'Speedy movement' when travelling around their city. The boots feel extremely light and comfortable on your feet and seem to fit perfectly. Made with small feathers these boots don't offer the wearer much protection, and even the people of Windia agree that the boots do make the wearer look a bit silly.., Level needed to equip it: 20, Strength modifier: -1, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 1, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: -1.

-5 armor makes it a slight disadvantage for mages to wear them, -1 str. makes it slight dis. for fighters/rangers/paladins/thieves/druids, and -1 charisma makes it a slight disadvantage for paladins/clerics/pacifits.

With these changes the benefits and losses are more spread out, just not as severe-- ie people may actually use the. Before anyone argues that -5 armor isn't enough off for mages-- Remember that you're taking away 4 ac from removing vindi. boots AND taking off another 5-- so a loss of 23 ac.

why worry with it now when no one has bothered to worry with it before?...i would not really buy a stat decressing item anyway...pfft....
