New Giftbag Sale and Behaviours!

Written by: Jeremy

Addressed to: Everyone


The 30% credit bonus has come to and end and we are starting a giftbag sale.

You will receive a giftbag for every 100 credits you purchase. Any purchase under 100 credits will get a giftbag as well.

The reason for the hold up this month is a new feature called behaviors.

Behaviors take some of your profession's basic attacks and give you optional messages. New behaviours can be learned from scrolls that are awarded in the giftbags this month. 50% of all giftbags will have a behaviour scroll in them. Scroll will be attuned to a specific behaviour and to a specific profession. For example, you may be awarded with a scroll that will allow you to basic learn volcanic priest attacks or advanced drunken warden attacks.

HELP BEHAVIOURS will give you more information.

You will notice as these are discovered by the players some of the scrolls have more messages. In particular the warden, amazon, and predator professions. This is because the code already allowed for these professions to have more custom messages. Over the next few months we will slowly allow more attack messages to be customised.

For those of you that are combatants and fear needing to add hundreds of new messages, fear not, you can turn this feature off and only view the default messages. See HELP BEHAVIOURS.

That said, the messages will make things more entertaining. Don't turn them off too quick.

Svorai and I have written over 430 new messages, and each message needed three perspectives. This means over 1200 new messages. There are bound to be some typos in those messages. Feel free to TYPO them and Svorai and I will fix them. Some messages may semi suck, so feel free to suggest minor improvements and we will weed through them.

Here are some examples with some alternate DSL messages for knight classes:

With a lightning-quick motion, you slash a kohdon head hunter with a blade of black obsidian.
You swing a blade of black obsidian at a kohdon head hunter with a powerful strike.

Ice trails a blade of black obsidian's path as you slash a kohdon head hunter.
Ice courses through a kohdon head hunter's veins as you slash him several times with a blade of black obsidian

Belching loudly you slash a blade of black obsidian at a kohdon head hunter.
You drunkenly swing a blade of black obsidian at a kohdon head hunter.
