Intonation
From Sanctuary Shard
Currently in development. Combines Discord, Peacemaking and Provocation.
Using
Successful skill checks will be done against Intonation whereas effectiveness will be scaled by Musicianship. Intonation requires the off-hand weapon slot free. This allows players to fight with a one-handed weapon, but they will lose parry and shield thus making it harder to introduce Devotion and Precision into a build. Arm and disarm will work, but we do intend to implement a delay between use or a stamina cost that will not be circumvented with Razor.
- We will work to convert the equipable instrument art to the off-hand so they can appear on the paper doll.
The effectiveness of Bard skills in Sanctuary prior to this change was very poor. It is our intention that this combination should be as effective as Evocation and Evaluating Intelligence is.
Tunes
I'd like to convert peacemaking, provocation, and discord to using the new targeting system. Here are some thoughts:
- The fact that none of the skills can figure out which musical instrument to use is annoying. If we don't get actual equipable instruments in place please have it know to use the first instrument found in the main pack.
- Discord (Discordant Shout and Song of Discord)
- Give it two abilities, direct and AOE. The direct one works on the nexttarget like spells but only applies to that target. The AOE works on the next target but has an area of effect.
- Peacemaking (Shout of Peace and Song of Withdrawl)
- Same as above. Give it two abilities, direct and AOE. The direct one works on the nexttarget like spells but only applies to that target. The AOE works on the next target but has an area of effect.
- Provocation (Battle Cry and War Chant)
- Give it two abilities, direct and AOE. The direct targets the mobs currently under nexttarget and then provides a cursor to target the second mob. The AOE targets the current nexttarget but then attempts to provoke as many mobs onto other mobs in area as possible.
- Charm Creature
- I think its Dryad Allure, lets you charm a creature to be under your command.
Spell | Skill Range | Cast Time | Cooldown | Range |
---|---|---|---|---|
Discordant Shout | 6 secs | |||
Discordant Shout works on a current single target. Discordant Shout applies a significant debuff to the target. | ||||
Song of Discord | 6 secs | |||
Song of Discord is an AOE version of Discordant Shout that applies to an area around the current target. | ||||
Shout of Peace | ||||
The Shout of Peace applies to a single current target. The Shout of Peace stuns the target causing them to lose their target and stay in place. | ||||
Song of Withdrawl | ||||
The Song of Withdrawl works like the Shout of Peace and stuns the current target as well as a AOE range away from the target. This replaces the old Peacemaking skill which was used by targetting oneself. This implementation allows the player a little more distance from the onrushing horde. | ||||
Battle Cry | ||||
Battle Cry provokes the current target onto a player selected target. The song assumes the current target is the first of a pair to be provoked, and then asks for a second target to be chosen via a target cursor. | ||||
War Chant | ||||
War Chant works like Battle Cry in that it provokes one mob onto another mob, but the War Chant version automatically selects the mobs to fight. The song will choose lower end mobs over high-end mobs, in the area, so as to afford the bard with the highest chance of success. | ||||
Charm Creature | ||||
Charm Creature works like the Dryad Allure from UO's Spellweaving skill. 40 Mana Cost?
Dryad Allure can be used to charm any humanoid creature. The charmed creature will act like any Pets or Summoned creatures. Allured monsters will never lose loyalty and always follows commands, responding "Very Well" to each one. Charmed creatures take 3 follower slots, no matter the type. Upon release, the charmed creature will say, "Sorry, but no." Upon a failure to charm, the message "The Humanoid becomes enraged by your charming attempt and attacks you." is given. Charming is effective on meer, savages, ratmen, the named ratman and ettin located in Sanctuary, and any non-paragon or non-named monster that is in the repond group (Titans, Cyclopean Warriors, Ettins, all Orc types, and all Ogre types), not including reptilian humanoids such as Lizardmen. Charmed creatures must be removed from the subserver they were charmed on for another of their type to spawn. | ||||
Campfire Melody | ||||
This tune effects a nearby campfire by raising its effective rate equal to Intonation/4, for a max skill of 120 Camping. If the camping value is over 100 the GM Camping bonus will apply. |
