Re: Chaos Skills Trees
Collision function... Just don't get too optimistic: it doesn't hit enemies. Having a missile hit an enemy and spawn 1 new missile seems rather impossible at the moment. :/

Re: Chaos Skills Trees
I don't care about having it HITTING soemthing, all I want is that when My Oni No Ona collides whith something (monsters or wall), it releases a missiles (aka Bizzard)
So if i use the SFIA collission onto OnO then i set the missile below it in missiles.txt to use the BlizzardCenter collison/movement fnctions, it should release Blizzard on impact ?
BTW what value to use in Collide??? to have the missile explode on hit or when it reached its range ?

Re: Chaos Skills Trees
Compare with firebolt. I think it's 3... not sure. As for it exploding when it 'reaches its range': that's controlled by AlwaysExplode.
But again, your SFIA won't HIT anything.

I think he means the missile itself wont do the damage, but the explosion does the damage instead?

Re: Chaos Skills Trees
Can't wait to play them!
We still will see how good they work ingame.
For example, poison only. Maybe, the Corruptor will need another kind of attack or a defensive skill instead of one or two poison skills. Since they are kind of similar, people will probably realize quickly which are the best and take them. But we'll see.
For the Tormentor: Can you have the minions side by side or only one at a time?
For the Infernal Denizen: Damage x 4 may be too much considering multiplayer. Also, it will be kind of hard to balance his life/mana since he needs both for his spells. But that's also to see in the game.

Re: Chaos Skills Trees
But when you say dmg x4 that means it does that when maxed or if not then what does maxing it boost apart range?

Lucifer's Vision does x2 at slvl 1 with a nice range. At slvl 20, it will make x4 for a very nice range.

How about adding some magic damage skills in this tree? Thinking of poison immunes, and the fact that one'd pick and max 1 skill plus the curse.
Contagion won't get used. If it does more damage/sec than other skills it makes them utterly obsolete, if not it's pointless.

If it turns i can't I'll surely go the passive way you suggest.
ahah ... NS is a volcano like skills that spew out poison puff. so basically it's not auto hit all the time due to the randomness of volcano missile function.Brother Laz";p="96214" wrote: What's the difference between noxious spore and fruits of the doom? And what exactly does death clouds do?
FoD is under work but currently, well it's true it looks like NS .... arg somle more work so ...
DC is a Posion Nova with large radius, modified gfx and good poison dmg ....

Well the reduce poison resistance curse affect immune in the nice way (making them NOT immune). But well it seems that there's some flaws in the trees ...
Maybe i'll ahve to find something more nice to replace Contagion,FoD and the Endemia skills .... arg ....
i'm open to your suggestion so

Re: Chaos Skills Trees
May need some effect copying in D2Joel.dll...
Missile that hits, leaves an invisible stationary frozen orb missile (or 16 overlapping ones, spawned by a poison pot explosion thing) that shoot missiles that instantly explode as a lightning fury that emits 1 bolt, and the 'bolt' looks like a rat (act 1 critter)... you'd get a missile that when it strikes spawns dozens of homing rats for the next few seconds.
A nova with volcano movement function can look quite good if you get the speed/frequency right, it looks like multiple jumping discs (circles of volcano bombs)... you could also make the bombs invisible and just make them leave a fire/poison cloud. I'm sure you could give some occult explanation to a skill that leaves multiple circles of fire on the ground.
PS: belated happy birthday.

Re: Chaos Skills Trees
Well, i've replaced some Corruptor posion skill with magic damage one, using disease carrier at theme. So expect to see :
Fangs of Nights : A massive plague rats attacks (pierce + mag-dmg)
Broods of Shelob : Invasion of mag-dmg+noheal spider swarm.
Doom Serpent : A crawling snake spirit missile attack.
I also have revamped the Contagion/Malison skills and compact the three others. I'll post the updated skill tree tonight along with the firts draft for Hunter Skills

Re: Chaos Skills Trees
Will you use all of those skills or just one or two of them? My fav is the Brood thing. Prevents monsters healing is useful I believe. Unless it works in a way I don't understand: I see that as the monster won't heal anymore during the rest of the game, right?

Re: Chaos Skills Trees
A throwing bomb that releases (insert nasty homing missiles) on striking?
A bomb/missile that releases a spirit that follows an enemy without colliding (chain of many CollideType=0 missiles that explode into 1-target lightning fury that releases another missile etc...) then after 20 instances (or 5 seconds, or whatever) explodes with a magic damage nova? The 'dog-with-a-stick-of-dynamite' effect (Darwin Awards).

Re: Chaos Skills Trees
I was thinking to make Endemia the -res-pois% curse thingy and make
contagino some kind of Poison Totem. A assy-trap like stuff that periodically spew out poison and magic sparkles ....
Hmmm so maybe movind Death Clouds as the lvl 30 skilsl of the PM-Cont branch and put Endemia as the dual element, lvl 50 skills ....

Re: Chaos Skills Trees
I don't like how you have the summons for chaos.
Just doesn't seem right.
Maybe something like this instead:
Educate followers - Passive skill that automatically trys to convert any monster that does poisen damage or has poisen immunity. % chance to convert raises per lvl, once a monster gets into view you automatically try to convert it, only works once. The converted fight for you, but slowly lose health untill they die.
Poisen Blooms - A poisenous plant raises from the target location and lashes out on enimys that are within range. Would work exactly like Baals festering appendages, but with more range, more life, and use poisen damage. Maybe have them stun people to. They should be pretty powerful since they can't move.
I can't think of a 3rd
