Title: I want to throw stones.
Post by: Olig on January 30, 2004, 02:28:29 am: Either Im not looking in the right places, or there is no \"way\" to become a geomancer. I want to specialize in spells that hurl a large boulder of rock at my enemies to cause blunt, crushing damage without a hammer. I was hoping it was the brown way, but I read off the forums its was for summoning toads and creatures.

Tying this in with my cartographer profession would be interesting too. :D

Post by: druke on January 30, 2004, 04:24:46 am: aye, its not just summoning, there will be 8 parts to it, not sure of all 8, the\'re kept secret =) summoning i assume is one of them.

BTW it should not just average diging but pulling a large amount of earth out so it will find more things and more chance in finding things than digging with a shovel

Usually all that takes to kill a mage are not more then a few hits, their defence and hp are usually low, so, you can RUN RUN RUN in the mage\'s direction and hope you can kill him before he kills you, or summons something powerful...

Post by: MercenaryVII on January 31, 2004, 08:28:33 am: this could bring in the social and team aspects as well as stealth. the mage obviously cant be seeing all 360 degrees around him so you either have to sneak up behind him and start beating him up quickly or get a friend or 2 and all come in from different angles so he can only get one of you b4 the rest are upon him and hacking him to bits

Post by: Junilia on January 31, 2004, 11:32:56 am: their defence would be low unless they are a battle mage :P

The Swordsman should have special moves like to charge, slash or a passive skill like dodge so they cant only RUN RUN RUN they can RUN RUN RUN and dodge :D

Post by: LordOfNecropolis on February 06, 2004, 04:20:39 am: hmmm...geomancer would be awesome but i\'d much rather see a dracomancer though
Title:
Post by: Olig on February 06, 2004, 04:39:20 am: A dracomancer? Thats someone who controls dragons right? I think that may be too powerful for a player occupation. Oo Maybe a boss type npc could be one?
(I admit, that would be cool to see a guy surrounded by dragons as though they were his minions.)

(50th post!! :D)

Post by: Watcher on February 07, 2004, 09:15:42 am: The devs have alredy said No Dragons, so no dracromancer.
