Dinosaur Jr

[edit] Elder Dragon

  • Implemented Ukkuhr-Makhai, an Elder Dragon.
    • This is a mob pet (mobile) - not player controlled.
    • Roams Stygia. Terrifying. Kills whatever it comes in contact with. Has like, a zillion attacks and is just plain bad-ass.

    • See its own entry for more information.

[edit] Interface

  • Pets now appear on the map interface, just like characters do.
    • There are like, a zillion combinations for the images (one, few, many characters by one, few, many pets, plus dragon).
    • Thanks to John Ember for the design of the pet icon (and the dragon icon, for that matter).
  • Clothing has now been pulled out into its own subtab on the inventory in the enhanced interface

[edit] General

  • Changed the name of "Untyped" damage to "Nexal" damage.

    • Currently implemented upgrades include:
      • Ward Strength Increases (5 levels worth)
      • Gunsmithing Table (allows characters to craft/repair firearms and ammunition inside the stronghold)
      • Medical Bay (stronghold is treated as a hospital)
      • Forge (allows characters to craft/repair items requiring forges inside the stronghold)

[edit] Mobile Phones

  • Implemented mobile phone messaging system.
    • Characters MUST have a mobile phone to use this.
    • You may add up to 20 characters to your phone's memory (give each one a nickname).
    • You can then send messages to characters in your phone book from anywhere for 1 AP.
    • The receiving character must also have a mobile phone for this to work.
    • You add (or remove) people from your phonebook via profile pages or the target pane.

[edit] Class

  • Pretty heavy nerf to Dark Oppressors:
    • All bonuses are now based on level and scale as the DO gains levels.
    • Damage bonus now starts at +1 at level 20 and goes to +11 at level 30, gaining +1 each level.
    • Soak bonus now starts at +1 at level 20, increases by 1 every 2 levels, reaching +6 at level 30.
    • Attack bonus now starts at +6 at level 20 and goes to +16 at level 30, gaining +1 each level.
    • Defense bonus now starts at +6 at level 20 and goes to +16 at level 30, gaining +1 each level.

[edit] Faction

  • Raiding faction strongholds now has a modified Experience Point grant for the attackers, thus:
    • If the attacking faction is not hostile to the defending faction, XP is halved
    • Otherwise:
      • If the attacking faction is 5 or more levels higher than the defender, XP is multiplied by 0.25
      • If the attacking faction is between 2 and 5 levels higher than the defender, XP is multiplied by 0.75
      • If the attacking faction is "in range" of the defender, XP is multiplied by 1.1
      • If the attacking faction is 2 or more levels below the defender, XP is multiplied by 1.25

[edit] Pet

[edit] Item

  • Added new item, Bullhorn
    • Uses batteries (10 charges)
    • All bullhorn text is anonymous.
    • Speaking through a bullhorn allows the character's words to be heard cleanly one "point" away, thus:
      • If the character is inside, people outside the current location will hear it cleanly, and people in the surrounding squares (outside) will hear muffled voices
      • If the character is outside, people inside the current location will hear it cleanly. In the surrounding squares, people outside will hear it cleanly but people inside will hear muffled voices.
      • It tells you the direction the sound was coming from.

  • Added new item: Frying Pan
  • Added new item: Bullwhip
