Abyss Event Idea
So Loops was talking about the original Abyss shard the other day, which I had no idea about... And I got the idea that it would be pretty cool if we had events in which the players were monsters and had their stats and skills.
Could easily be incorporated into CTF, each player is a random monster (although it would be balanced throughout the teams). Or even in individual events, the better a player does, when he respawns he can choose an even better monster etc... Just a thought, I think it would be really cool and spice things up.

Re: Abyss Event Idea
It would have to be balanced as well, as in putting liches rather than liche lords because they can heal, yet adding in Ogre Lords because they can't heal but have the advantage of hitting hard. Each team would have a balance of the same amount of these monsters etc.

On one abyss server around halloween, the paladin moongate in trinsic gave you 500 hps, 500 dex, 250 int, a full spellbook, 100 ea reg, and insane skills.
Re: Abyss Event Idea
I liked the original Abyss Test. It was basically CTF, each color had their own castle with reg & equipment stones.. You'd have to run into the center of the castle on the 2nd floor to get to their flag, and make it all the way back out. I believe there was a permanent gate system set up, where each castle was linked to the fire temple with access to all of the gates there -- which was usually one big ass war.
It was pretty hard to capture a flag, even if you made it out of the castle you'd get caught in crossfire at the fire temple.

Re: Abyss Event Idea
abyss was the shit back in the day. anyone remember Santas Slay during the christmas season? i loved that shard too. we should definatly do that here during the appropriate seasons.
Re: Abyss Event Idea
There was a cool bug that involved being way over the stat cap and gaining a stat, on Santas Slay and related shards.
3500 magery is fun. Kill people with reactive armor, and overweight people with the stregnth spell.

I would love to see the original OSI Abyss Test CTF shard replace the test center shard here. every skill GM, 100/100/100 stats, free regs weps etc.
the only way to capture the flag was to invade their base and stack a boat load of hides everywhere, then polymorph into a chicken to get the flag and get the hell out

Re: Abyss Event Idea
Except the point of test here is to... well, test. All changes made to the shard are first tested on the test shard to work out bugs.yaadood wrote:I would love to see the original OSI Abyss Test CTF shard replace the test center shard here. every skill GM, 100/100/100 stats, free regs weps etc.

I wouldn't mind something like this being added to the CTF already on the main shard.
