Hi everyone. So to give people something to discuss who are bored, at work, or otherwise not logged in to the server, I’d like to get your ideas for potential quest reward items, or even new items that could be found while adventuring.
These items do not have to be constrained to just the typical item properties in the toolset. For example, we have a quest reward item that gives immunity to knockdown for a certain amount of time. This was done by putting a simple ‘Cast Spell: Unique’ item property on the item, and then a special script was setup to run to provide that immunity whenever the item is used. So ideas that like, which are unique in some way, are those I would prefer over a suggestion of a 'Flaming Longsword +5'. Of course the flip side to this is that if the ideas are very complex they may not happen either. It's a fine line to walk.... ;)
I will not be saying which ideas or items make it into the game (you'll have to find that out on your own!), and even if they do I may end up modifying them in some way. But I bring up this topic to see if you, the members of the Thay community, can help provide some inspiration for items or trinkets or artifacts you think might be neat to have some day!
