Looks like you've made it possible to find good randarts.

Yes... the better randarts are now less rare and are less likely to aggravate too. I've also tweaked generation somewhat (though the overall power of randarts is less if anything).

Just found about the best possible weapon for rounding off kit and consumables! Winged Dragons are my new staple diet. Another change has been Great Axes from 5d4 to 4d5 - meaning the enhanced versions can be a lot better...

Should have said that that is also the sort of weapon that the branding rings were made for... however I have to sacrifice speed or my power ring when I use it.

Now I can't decide if it is over-powered to allow rings to affect archery... However I have the best longbow in the game (Bregor) with the best arrows in the game (Seeker 3d5) so maybe I should expect good damage? With my ring of Acid wielded I could do around 260 dam/shot when buffed. This is considerably less than was possible in 035 though. It let me soften up Gothmog a lot before I finished him off with Crisdurian.

Ancalagon was a different matter, with my 4d9 Great Axe of *Slay* Dragon I took on him and his escort of Winged Dragons all at once (wasn't intentional as a plasma vortex breathed and woke them all up, but I thought it would be fun to try once it had happened!). It was a really fun battle too.

However Bignose and FA036 development will probably go on hold now whilst I have a go at the O comp...

Seem to have everything but healing. Looks like I need to tweak drops a bit more.

One of my aims with this version is to remove the need to spend ages scumming for consumables when you are otherwise ready to take on M.

On 15.12.2008 10:52 Psi wrote:
A few more changes based on this run through.

Firestar has been toned down to 3d6 rather than 2d9 - it made the 'Holy Fire Set' a little too powerful for how easy it is to complete.

The branding rings no longer apply to ammo - however the code is in place for branded launchers now. I will be changing Cubragol to being a fire brand rather than having a branding activation for example.

Healing potions are now considered a 'good' drop therefore they can be dropped by Winged Dragons etc.

Enhanced dice arrows are rarer.

Enhanced dice weapons are less rare at greater depths.

After slaying many Winged Dragons to top up my supply of !Healing, it turns out I only needed one !*Healing* for the battle with Morgoth. The combination of ?RoP and Mana Burn is still too powerful even after I've made glyphs easier to break.

Archery still niggles me, but I may have got too close to it all. It probably needs playtesting to see if it is better than it was and what still needs tweaking.

It is a lot easier to pick up speed now than before and consumables are also easier to gather. I think this makes the game smoother to play - though it does make it easier too because of this. Is that a good or a bad thing...?

Speaking as someone who still regularly gets his ass handed to him by flocks of novice mages and paladins in the wilderness, easier is definitely a *good* thing...that is if I survive long enough to reap the benefits of smoother consumable gathering. :P

May as well make the changes - if we decide later that it's too easy, it can be changed back.

Nice win (I almost forget to comment on yours now!), Psi. If you stick up a beta/playtest version, there's a few people to report back now...

What would make the game unduly easy is if valuable consumables turned up to regularly at low/mid levels - increasing their frequency at depth (more than 3000ft, otherwise thralls can cherry-pick too easily) should fix it...

Not sure about archery - I haven't played enough Rangers to know. The only change that sounds potentially unbalancing is that, given how rare Branding scrolls were, allowing elemental rings to apply a weapon brand might be overpowered for the likes of the Glaive of Pain - toning it down a little (sorry, HM) would probably mitigate that, if it's a problem in the first place...

Its close now. I'm just adding in a few of the fixes that Nick made to O.

Though level feelings trouble me a little. Testing object generation in O (with Harry) I had a level at DL30 containing Ringil rejected by the autoscummer! How ridiculous (and oh what might have been...). Therefore I've tweaked it so that artifacts have a bigger say in the level feeling. Also I discovered that OoD monsters were not taken into consideration either! That is now fixed too. Anyway it still seems that level feelings aren't calculated as best they could be...

The consumables are no less rare - what I changed is that they are now considered 'good' drops. That means that DROP_GOOD monsters can now drop them whereas before you could not get a !Healing from a Winged Dragon for example.

Using a branding ring with the GoP is exactly the sort of thing they are designed for. In how many builds could you sacrifice a ring slot to do it though? That was the theory anyway - I'll be interested to see people's experience with them!
