Post  Post subject: Second consideration: "Stat-exchange ticket" Reply with quote

Storm Shadow aka Kody does not have a forum account, so I am basically posting this for him.

Kody PMed me asking if I would like an item such as this to be implemented. This was our conversation. (The suggestion is basically IN the conversation).

Notes: "To:" means I am speaking TO Storm Shadow, "From:" means he is speaking to ME. Red are important portions that Kody said, Blue are by me. Ellipses (...) between sections indicate skipped portions. Brackets are comments I typed up just now. Also, this is ALMOST verbatim, I just changed a few things and made some spelling revisions and shit <<

From: adam!
To: Hey =o
From: alright so im trying to get luzz to reconsider bringing something called
a stat exhange ticket where you can take the stats and effects off one headgear and ut it on another. would you want that?

To: Wait, so let me get this straight. Let's say I wanted to exchange the effects of the Pure Valk Helm [Stats +10, Neutral Resistance +20%, Def +4, Weight +100], with the Frog Prince Hat. This is what that would do?
From: exactly. youd be able to use your favorite hats.
To: So basically you can get the sprite you want with the effects you like...
From: yeah
To: Not ONLY would I say yes to that, I'd sign a petition 30 times for you.
From: lol, luzz said they considered that a long time ago, im trying to get him to reconsider it again.
To: OMG, please do it! -.-
From: lol
...
To: How exactly would we get a "stat exhange ticket"? And also how would it work?
From: they had it on one of my other servers, never actually used it thought o.O i wouldnt go as far as making the ticket a donate item, and if so make it like 1 GC? o.o
...
To: You could post a topic on that on the forums :O
From: i dont have a forum account =/
To: Bum <_<
From: you could do it for me Very Happy
...

There you go Very Happy Will leave poll questions and the like =) AAAAAAAAAAND GO!

I vote a million times, yes.

i dont care what stats people have on their items. it means nothing. the only thing that matters is what cards people have.

Well, there has to be a limit. people cant get a 10 GC hat, and make it like a 15 one

stat exchanges should only be allowed with same price items

I still don't know how the mechanics of the item would work, but that would be the ideal format, yes.

And again, as I have no idea how it works/will work, it will probably like an item in your first inventory section (Usables), you double-click it, you select the headgear you'd like to transfer the stats FROM, and then afterwards the headgear you'd replace the stats TO. The process will probably be similar to the card-equiping, or pancake-making, or possibly even like potion-making and the like.

I don't know. Sad Doesn't mean I don't want this BADLY D:

On my old server they had this exact same thing, except it was called "Dyna Hats" where its basically the same thing, its any sprite hat you want with any effect you want from a current donation.

The way it worked on my old server was this, there were 3 Dyna Hats, according to price, (I'll use the prices here on Reign as the example)
I want my Purple Valk Helm (15GC) i would buy the Dyna Hat for 15GC and i can only put in the stats of any other 15GC hat. You cannot mix and match, For Example: Neutral Valkyrie Helm (10GC) with Garm Hat effects (15GC) you cant do that because they arent of the same value.

Thats the how it worked on my old server, and it worked pretty well, so if it were to be implemented here on Reign, I'd suggest that each hat be paired together with their prices, that way you cannot have a mix and match, making it slightly unfair, cause it would seem as a way to "scam" Luzz; due to a 10GC Dyna Hat with a 15GC hats effect. You just got a 15GC hat for 10GC and thats not right. So each hat should be paired up with its own price range and not be able to use any other effects for hats that arent of its value.

I TOTALLY AGREE TO HAVE THIS IDEA ON REIGN!!! Very Happy

I just like the idea, cause sadly and hoestly

Looks before effects every time for me :\
Would be nice to have 10% hp on my favorite helm.

but i this should work on Butterfly wings
Example: Shadow wings with swaped for holy property effect.
thats just fucked up in so many ways and same for mid's

i say if this goes down, should only be for headgears(top)

Here is my idea on how this could work.

A hat converter item is added to the donate NPC. We will call it "Hat Converter" for now.
When hat converter is applied to the helm you want the stats from it turns it into another item, lets call it "Hat Token" for now. Hat Token is a clicky item that carries stats from one hat, and applies them to another hat when used. So for example, if you used the converter on a Pure Valkyrie Helm it would be "Pure Valkyrie Helm Token". When you used the token on a Ribbon, for example, it would gain the stats of your pure valk helm.

The tokens would be color coded. If they were created from a donate that was 15 gc the token would be platinum, 10gc donate would be gold, vote helm would be silver, quest helm would be bronze, and non donate/quest/vote tokens would be black.

Each token could be used on a headgear that is equal or lesser in vallue to the original hat it was created from, giving it the stats of the original headgear. For example platinum hat tokens coudl be used on any headgear where as gold hat tokens could be used on any headgear that is a 10 gc donate helm or lesser, etc.

The downside would be if you wanted to move stats from one donate helm to another. In that case I think there should be an NPCs tucked away somewhere that have voting and donate helms with no stats. If you talk to the NPC with your token, it will exchnage it for a helm from the list and apply the stats from the token to it.


Or

Another idea would be just to add an item to the donate girl that could be used at another npc. We will call it Hat Token again.

The NPC will change the image of the current headgear you are wearing for the price of one Hat token. Headgears that a helm could be changed to would be listed in classes, like they are on the slotting NPC. [Class S] could be donate headgears, which could only be selected if the current helm you are wearing is a donate headgear. [Class A] could be any headgear that is non donate, non quest, non vote etc. So for example I could change the image of my Pure Valk Helm to any image I want, but I can only change my Puppy Band to another [Class A] image.

Or..


The two ideas could even be combined. The converter could change your headgear into a token which would carry its stats, but instead of the token being a clicky item it could be exchanged an an NPC. There could be several npcs dedicated to each tier of Tokens. Whichever way woudl be easier to code I guess.

Im sure either way its probably not that easy to code, and in any case I cant really see the hat change thing ever happening. ;x

NyuubiRO has a script for something like this. What happened was you needed both headgears. The base one, (the one you wanted stats and slots from) and then the disguise headgear. You'd take them both and you would disguise the base headgear with the disguise headgear. (Yes you need to have both headgears to be able to do it). You only get the stats and stuff from the base headgear, but it disguises it as the other headgear. If you wanted to undisguise you could take it back to that NPC and seperate the 2. This could solve the difference of GC debate because you'd need both headgears to make the one you want. Smile

My only counter to that would be this...Does the knowledge of the headgear they're wearing make such a large bearing on how they are approached in combat? In time I'm sure players will come to sort a be able to guess what the "true" headgear a player is wearing...
