[2019 Q4] 2019 Strythmas Wishlist

[Stiehl26]

I would like to see Dwarven Paladins, which in a recent thread seemed to get some attention and they sounded like they could initiate some good RP.

[Nycticora]

I'm not against dwarven paladins as a christmas wish but would prefer to see Dav weigh in on the subject

[Stiehl26]

he kind of did here.

[Dogran]

What about Slith ranger? I mentioned it earlier in the thread, but didn't get any feedback.

[kento]

Seconded for Dwarf Paladins if Dav isn't against it.

[kento]

I wish for Druids to have actual charmy pets like they used to. They used to have I think it was a panther and/or maybe a treant, but you could do lots of things to fit in theme with their new elements

[Vevier]

I wish that player-created custom races were available at creation as variants of their parent races.

[Kalist19]

+1 to vevier's custom races at creation wish.

Having Undead race available for some classes might be cool. Has anybody gone undead with a non vampire race in a while? Would be pretty cool to see Undead warrior, dkn, invoker (lich) maybe.

[Ergorion]

Wasn't there an undead warrior not too long ago? Like maybe past two years. Scarecrow or something?

[Davairus]

We did the dwarf paladins thing before and is gone because Burzuk re-deleted it. In my experience that was not ever seen to be a hugely powerful race/class combo. Paladins/DKNs share the same concern of being a hybrid class, and we've tried to keep the races with blanket magic resist/phys resist off that kinda stuff. If everybody could just keep that in mind going forward

[Lorne]

Purples and gyvels that last longer...annoying as fuck.

[kento]

Bring back Psionicists!

[Kornhole]

Seconded Psionicists, I miss my pyramid! Also beads strangle, and druid brew. Also Align/Ethos in dashboard. All that being said these are Strythmas wishes, coming from a player who has rolled MANY bards, only one of which who has ever rehearsed Ode to Stryth, so there's that.

[Kornhole]

Also, on the players page of the website, a spot for minotaur warrior, and a treants catergory?

[Nycticora]

Santa Claus yells 'Die, Kornhole! You singing fool!'

[Davairus]

Well druid brew was a massive amount of work for very little benefit, so there is your answer. I mean I literally already wrote down a bunch of things I wouldve like to made. It just doesnt seem worth it. And I'm sure you guys would've agreed. The class feels complete without it.

In addition to that statement, lairs have some crafting options that are already too much like brewing so we would be doing the work twice for literally no point.

Bead strangle probably still has an edge case where it'll work if you are in drunken style, I am unsure but would not be surprised. It could be a grandmaster drunken style thing if not.

Pyramid was just identical to sanctuary except undispellable which I would fix in any psi remake. And am not going to issue re-skinned spells, that's lazy and crap. I would like to see more interest before trying any psi remake again. Youd have to give me an idea for pyramid of force that isnt just sanc. The main issue with remaking psis is that every spell is practically useless

[Ergorion]

Regarding psis: anything that gets more squids into the game I'm in favor of.

[Davairus]

well, we have talked about opening the illithid race up to shamans and i prefer that route if we have over entirely remaking psionicist. it would play very similiarly except it wouldnt be crap. a couple of racial legacies (e.g. ectoplasm) would make it feel almost identical to psionicist because of just how many useless spells the psi class had. but i am unsure why the sudden fad with illithid again.

[Kedaleam]

I mean, the original post says things that are "easy to code" and people are asking to bring back a class that would need a ton of work. Kids these days asking Santa for their new Iphone 27.

I do want to say, most of the requests are just simply more race options for specific classes, don't know if that's just because one person started a trend in the thread.

My request would just be more racial legacies for the race/class combos that are lacking, but I don't want to try and think of any, because I'm a terrible person.

[Ceridwel]

DEPO ALL

Easiest thing to code, why are we even still talking.
