Shield of the Haunted Souls [UT Shield]

#42

Edit: Slightly rebalanced

#43

while that may be the basic use of a shield in real life, in the game shields already give a strong passive def bonus which is giving protection meanwhile having a shield bash ability. [quote=ā€œCMME, post:42, topic:4647, full:trueā€]

I still donā€™t see much reason to use this item, I will get armored for about 2 seconds but why would I want that when I can go and stun for a long time with a tiered shield

#44

Edit: Reverted to invincible, let the hate begin :cry: slight buff to MP cost to attempt to accommodate that.

#45

Nice sheild idea, but i like the 1st design FunDjembe made. If anything, he could add some faded yellow-ish green at the bottom right. Other than that, great sheild design!

#46

Tag him so he knows!

#47

Re-re balanced, huge this time

#48

I hope bumping is allowed :cry:

#49

Iā€™m pretty proud of the lore I put like 30 minutes into :wink:

#50

it is dont worry.

rarely see ideas bumped though, usually just forum games and guild

maybe more time shouldā€™ve been put into the actual idea lol

#51

Try making something that doesnā€™t copy the exact shape of an ogmur, for example try going off the Scrotum Shieldā€™s sprite just add minor edits in the shape of it.

#52

Why Quiet? It seems highly redundant considering your mp will likely be depleted by the time you stop using the shield due to pet stasis. Just add a cool down like Oreo, this way you canā€™t switch to another shield immediately after.

#53

Good idea! Iā€™ll change this!

#54

Iā€™m terrible at spriting :wink:

#55

spent like 30 mins on idea

#56

I think this shield is an awesome idea, and definitely deserves some attention. It could work better if you implemented some kind of magic sickness. Unlike quiet/silence, it doesnā€™t drain your MP to 0 immediately, but it prevents you to restore MP (like sickness does for your health) + it needs a cool name. Think of some lore why you canā€™t regenerate mana.
I think the bug that @IAmShurima talked about would still exist this way, and deserves some thoughts.

Raid out.

Yeah, the think is that this ā€œmagic sicknessā€ is made to prevent perma buffing. I donā€™t know if it should really be into the lore.

#58

It could also be in the description or something. "By draining all your magic, you become invincible for a short amount of time."
I DO NOT KNOW how the magic in RotMG works, soā€¦
(Magic sickness would just work better imo)

#59

Actually, you arenā€™t forced to use all your mp, you can release at any time to stop the mp consumption. So ā€œdraining all your magicā€ couldnā€™t apply. But something like this might sound good :

In exchange of the userā€™s magic power, this shield can provide short invulnerability.
(not the description, but a part of the itemā€™s lore)

#60

I think this is a good idea :wink:

#61

Yeah, maybe like um um, yeah that will take some thought :confused: and rip @IAmShurima 's 8/8 pally
