Hammering a point home

[ermorden]

Just a reminder for our newer friends, and old ones alike: there are indeed epic battles to be had with demigods, gods, whoever else in Darkfall. And, what excites me most about those kinds of fights, is that anything you see that monster wearing, wielding, etc. will be your loot if it falls.

EVERYTHING YOU SEE A MONSTER CARRYING IS YOURS TO HAVE ONCE YOU KILL IT. This is a huge plus for realism in Darkfall. I'm assuming there will be some kind of skinning skill as well, which would make it even more interesting. I recall raids in Everquest when you could actually see what weapon the bosses wielded, knowing you'd get it if you were able to kill it.

Something so simple added so much excitement and depth to the game. It's really a great feature. No golden lightning longsword dropping from the "diseased mosquito" you just dispatched. Feel free to ask about PvE or discuss looting here.

I like the fact that you can turn on your friends before the boss falls to steal the lewt

...ok guess the title was kinda fitting.

Can already see people complaing if that happens. "He killed me and it was my loot"...And what Response will they get...Either "Well Go kill him" by a friend or a "Ha Ha, You Sux0rz" from the guy who killed him.

Good Fun.

aaaaah, yes. Ermorden. That is truly an amazing feature.
Many games in the past have had difficulties finding a way to balance this.

How can you have strong monsters without giving them good items?
But, giving them those items make them unable to drop all they wear because too many good items would get into circulation. Then players would get too good. Economy would be screwed.

Full loot removes the incentive to hunt the same monster 100 times to get the rare loot.

Yea... it's a fine line to walk.
I'm glad Darkfall is attempting. I like realism and sense in a game :)

Yo guys... If you wanna stay friends and keep a decent reputation you probably shouldn't do things you can't stand up for. Such as stealing from your own friends.
Noone would want to be your friends in the future then...

Well Duh. But just could be a PUG for something of your own race, a few minus alignment aint bad if your getting some nice ass items.

I can see bloodbaths following a ninja-loot after killing a boss.

the fun part is, if that "demi-gods" are set to "need everything" there is a possibilty that they will have ALOT of loot if some players failed killing them :D

Absolutely. Yet another cool part of the loot/AI.

Ermorden: /random 0 1000 You have rolled 999.

Ermorden: Yay I get teh lootz! WTF? Quit hitting me with your hammer you asshole!

Mr.LichTwitch: Fuck you bitch. That's my loot :lmao::lmao::lmao::lmao:

hahaha. Perfect.

I wonder if this can extend to spells. learning a spell from being nuked by it is kinda kool. Maybe a disintegrate spell that instantly destroys you can only be learned by being disintegrated.

Damn, I wanted to say that.
Even more fun, if a player with better gear then that demi god dies, the demi god could end up with better then his "starting gear". Making him even more godly :sly:
