[RPG] Suggested Item Enhancements

MerricB · May 3, 2004

The following list is for enhancing items. It should be noted that any item can be enhanced only once, but you can apply any enhancement to any item. Thus, if we created a "Keeness" item, you could apply it to armour - and that wouldn't make sense!

The costs here are likely to be rather steep.

I'm not sure of the relationship between Attack and Defense, but I'm going to consider them analogous for the time being.

Defensive Enhancements
Defending - +25 DEF - cost 500 gp
Shielding - +50 DEF - cost 2000 gp
Foresight - +100 DEF - cost 8000 gp

Offensive Enhancements
Bull's Strength - +25 STR - cost 500 gp
Ogre's Strength - +50 STR - cost 2000 gp
Giant's Strength - +100 STR - cost 8000 gp

Magical Enhancements
Clarity - +25 MP - cost 500 gp
Perceptiveness - +50 MP - cost 2000 gp
Sight of the Magi - +100 MP - cost 8000 gp

Holy Enhancements
Angel's Might - +25 STR, +30 DEF - cost 1200 gp
Angel's Honor - +30 DEF, +25 MP - cost 1200 gp
Solar's Might - +25 STR, +50 DEF, cost 3500 gp
Solar's Honor +50 DEF, +25 MP - cost 3500 gp

Fiendish Enhancements
Devil's Might - +30 STR, +25 DEF - cost 1200 gp
Devil's Guile - +30 STR, +25 MP - cost 1200 gp
Balor's Might - +50 STR, +25 DEF - cost 3500 gp
Balor's Guile - +50 STR, +25 MP - cost 3500 gp

Draconic Enhancements
Dragon's Rage - +25 STR, +30 MP - cost 1200 gp
Dragon's Mastery - +25 DEF, +30 MP - cost 1200 gp
Wyrm's Rage - +25 STR, +50 MP - cost 3500 gp
Wyrm's Mastery - +25 DEF, +50 MP - cost 3500 gp

Universal Enhancements
Topaz - +5 STR, +5 DEF, +5 MP - cost 600 gp
Ruby - +25 STR, +25 DEF, +25 MP - cost 3000 gp
Sapphire - +50 STR, +50 DEF, +50 MP - cost 15000 gp
Diamond - +100 STR, +100 DEF, +100 MP - cost 100000 gp

I've left off HP enhancements for the time being, as they may be buggy.

Cheers!

Good names for these by the way....

Check my post in the FAQ for how Defense/Attack relate. Given the formula's the two are about equal.

I saw that - thank you very much for that.

I'll be redesigning the weapon list once I know how much you gain in DEF and ATT for going up in level!

Cheers!

How about:

Berzerker: +30 STR, -10 DEF

Crothian · May 3, 2004

Greyshadow, I like that idea...cheaper items to greatly improve something at the expense of something else.

I think it's partially random I noticed that even without weapons equipped I was one of the strongest yesterday. And that Fighter who was at equal level had a much lower strength (its possible thats because he doesn't have fire element equipped though).
