[_] [G] IdleQuest 2.0: I have no life and I must scream. A trilogy OP !8nHncBHSeM 1381991 THIRD TIME'S THE CHARM I was saying, I think we're done with beta testing and suggestions. IdleQuest 2.0 is here guys. I will take a break from updating after this and give you time to play the game, so if you find something you want changed, now is the time to point it out. Sorry I couldn't put in everything you wanted. New in 2.0 (since 1.5): Individual monsters Completely new dodging system Character titles New items New equipment Class specific skills that can't be obtained by other classes (Bone armor, Quickspell, Power attack, Sneak attack, Scoundrel's luck, Bard song, Holy smite, Trick Shot) So much rebalancing it's not even funny. Marked for deletion (old).
>> [_] OP !8nHncBHSeM 1381992 Replies to people in the previous thread - Yes, I did accidentally previously post v.2.0g and not v.2.0. Yes, I did post a broken copy of 2.0 with an attack choice algorithm I had broken during some last minute tweaking. Sorry about that. - Quest exp rewards have been increased at later levels. Gold is purposely kept low for the benefit of classes and skills specializing in gold management. - Rogues get a lot of dex, sure. It's what pro rogue players say is balanced. Sneak attack is tested and is not overpowered at later levels. Deal w/it - What do you mean not open source? I only just posted source code to version 1.9.1 and you can decompile and edit and recompile this with flasm16 as you like what are you a retard god damn
>> [_] OP !8nHncBHSeM 1381993 Also, not compatible with characters from previous versions. Attempting to play this with one will make your character bugged, stuck in "Smite" or "Sneak Attack" or "Undefined" forever. Nothing I can do about that at this time. What else... yeah, I fixed your pathetic pathetic donkeys too One more thing. Bard song is now completely new and has both offensive and defensive powers (actually the only skill to have both at this time). Report anything you want changed and any bugs you find while this thread lasts.
>> [_] Spartan !/eURofAGTo 1381994 You dun goofed up! Props op.
>> [_] Anon 1381995 1st
>> [_] Anon 1381997 >1381995 lol fail
>> [_] OP !8nHncBHSeM 1381998 >># Well it's not like you shouldn't expect it. I've posted about half of the releases prematurely. Testing this game takes so much time I'd rather fix what you guys find.
>> [_] Anon 1382000 >># DOUBLEFAIL
>> [_] Anon 1382002 Sneak Attack: Makes you attack like the fist of the north SNEAKATTACKSNEAKATTACKSNEAKATTACKWRYYYYY Power attack: Makes you one-shot everything at later levels. Bard song: Adds exclamation marks to your attack names.
>> [_] Anon 1382003 Never tried a version 2 before. What is a good class nowadays?
>> [_] Anon 1382004 >># Knights, Necromancers and Rogues are all solid. Actually everything does pretty well in the early game except Bards and nobody knows about the late game yet.
>> [_] Anon 1382007 >># What class power attacks?
>> [_] Anon 1382009 >># Knights and Paladins I think But sneak attack is better, try a Rogue
>> [_] Anon 1382010 >># > except Bards Did you try a bard in this version? Holy fucking shit.
>> [_] Anon 1382012 >># >sneak attack is better Was disproved for higher levels in last thread by comparison. It is better at lower levels.
>> [_] Anon 1382013 >># What does Trick Shot do?
>> [_] Anon 1382015 NO YOU STUPID FUCK DON'T SPECIALIZE IN ICE ARROW YOU ARE A BARD YOU DON'T NEED IT YOU SHOULDN'T EVEN LEARN TO THROW ICE ARROWS BY BUYING A TRIANGLE WHERE THE FUCK ARE MY MANUAL CONTROLS?
>> [_] Anon 1382016 Harry The Level 16 Spiked High Elf Wizard My int is only 1184(+74) so I run out of mana too fast. My concentration is Hypnosis, so my charisma is 1008(+886) quicken spell+ice arrow means that I usually get in about six fireballs to any one enemy attack. Until i run out of mana, I AM GOD. in the ice caves, BTW
>> [_] Anon 1382017 Is my cowboy SUPPOSED to be one-shotting everything in sight?
>> [_] Anon 1382019 >># specializing in ice arrow is dildos you only use it once in a battle
>> [_] OP !8nHncBHSeM 1382021 >># Screencap or accurate description and I will tell you, but probably. I've double-checked the Trick Shot code.
>> [_] Anon 1382023 >># [Woolhat] No pope you are the dildos
>> [_] Anon 1382024 Fuck year Bards finally kick ass! In fact almost too much. The enemies don't even get a chance to attack. But I guess we'll see.
>> [_] Anon 1382026 >># Right now I'm level 10 in the orcish ship and enchanted forest and I'm still killing everything in one hit. They never dodge, either.
>> [_] OP !8nHncBHSeM 1382030 >># Interesting. Can you tell me your stats?
>> [_] Anon 1382034 1 start game 2 talk to old man 3 start first quest 4 get sneak attacked to death by all enemies no matter what class you are 5 ????? 6 DEFICIT!!!
>> [_] OP !8nHncBHSeM 1382036 Well, anyway, chances are that you are indeed supposed to be killing them very fast. Version 2.0 is more aimed at higher levels, where previous versions focused on early game. Hence also the initially large exp gains.
>> [_] OP !8nHncBHSeM 1382037 >># You probably didn't refresh before starting the game. I managed to break the attack selection algorithm during some final tweaks to Trick Shot and Smiting and then accidentally posted that. That shouldn't happen in this version (and doesn't to my characters at least and seemingly others' too).
>> [_] Anon 1382042 ima go ahead and say hypnosis makes the enemies att a lot slower, cause I land a good 10 hits before they hit me and it's at least a .5 sec wait for each att also bard
>> [_] Anon 1382043 Totem: Glowing talking head Fuck yeah I'm finally a necromancer and not a wizard clone.
>> [_] Anon 1382044 Wow. The attack speed rogues get are fucking insane. I have a level 8 rogue now and I can barely even see the progress bar.
>> [_] Anon 1382047 >># It's never done that before, it used to just increase your cha
>> [_] Anon 1382048 >># well what would be slowing down the enemies att? Could it be bard song?
>> [_] Anon 1382049 Goddamn it bard You hit for several hundred stop fucking around with your shitty 20 damage fireball
>> [_] Anon 1382052 >># Can't really say because I haven't tried a bard, but the old Charm Foe bards used to get in the betas slowed down the enemy and nothing else.
>> [_] Anon 1382054 >># ha your fireball does 20 damage, my ice arrows do 2 and he keeps on using them... >># also that might be it, cause bard song is at 8 and if I get hit once, im 99% positive I'll die.
>> [_] Anon 1382056 So bards now slow down enemies and get "Attacking!!" instead of "Attacking". What else?
>> [_] Anon 1382058 Jesus Christ, gaining over 300,000 XP per kill in the Ocean. Learning is awesome.
>> [_] Anon 1382059 >># Which class is that?
>> [_] Anon 1382060 >># Cowboy.
>> [_] Anon 1382061 Wow. Just... wow. All the speed and all the new skills make this version confusing as fuck. It also doesn't really capture the mood of the old versions. Sorry OP, it's really fancy but I think I'll stick with 1.9
>> [_] Spartan !/eURofAGTo 1382062 Is power attack an active or passive skill? Does it require mana? My lvl 10 human knight never seems to use it, and it doesn't buff any stat. Maybe my 17 mana pool is to feeble?
>> [_] Anon 1382063 >># Screencaps pls
>> [_] Anon 1382064 >># Probably passive. My knight hits for like 10k damage and I haven't seen any other class do that.
>> [_] Anon 1382065 >># I get the feeling that this is a completely different game. Not sure if that's good or bad.
>> [_] Spartan !/eURofAGTo 1382066 With 370 strength I do around 750 damage on lvl 10. Nothing special I think. At least my dexterity is high (270) and I don't miss.

>> [_] Anon 1382068 >># Well, I've been running mine since like 2.0e, might have been nerfed since then.
>> [_] Anon 1382070 >># >># I don't get it. My Cowboy isn't one-shotting anything. He's doing like 15 damage at level 3.
>> [_] Anon 1382071 >># Just wait. Mine didn't start out that way either.
>> [_] Anon 1382075 >># Got to level 5, now I'm one-shotting everything too. I think Trick Shot's broken.
>> [_] Anon 1382080 My level 12 Cowboy isn't one-shotting shit
>> [_] Anon 1382089 >Mount: Pathetic Robot Unicorn oh you
>> [_] Anon 1382090 >># Actually mine stopped one-shotting shit too as soon as he hit level 9. Disregard previous remark, trick shot is just tricky I guess.

>> [_] Anon 1382100 >># Try a wizard, then you'll be all fireballfireballfireballfireballfireball fireball
>> [_] Anon 1382102 O, Scoundrel's luck is still bugged btw. It works but shows the wrong item, again.
>> [_] Anon 1382103 >># >># I must be lucky, then. My level 15 cowboy is killing enemies with more than 37000 HP in one hit. Trick Shot level 15, 2901 strength.
>> [_] Anon 1382106 Anyone tried a priest or necro yet? What are they like now?
>> [_] Anon 1382110 FWIW, I started a human cowboy, and he's one-shotting things at lvl 11 in cold mountain.
>> [_] Anon 1382114 Harry Johnson, L13 Giant Human Cowboy: Collecting spoons in the ocean. One shotting *everything*, which means he's dishing out at least 15k per hit. Hard Johnson L11 Naughty Dwarf Rogue: Killing skeletons in the Catacombs. Not one-shotting anything, but sneakattacking so fast it doesn't matter. Dex is OVER 9000!!1! Freaky Johnson L8 Bloody High Elf Wizard. Appears to have fixated on Ice Arrow :( Looking for body parts in the Orcish cave. All three started simultaneously.
>> [_] Anon 1382116 Wizards at higher levels are like Metal Storm guns in this version. They empty out their mana reserves in 2 seconds, destroying pretty much everything and if anything survives, you're fucked.
>> [_] Anon 1382118 One thing i dont like is how a mage or necromancer will always upgrade weapon first rather than magic book thing. fucking annoying. YOU DONT HIT FOR SHIT. GET A MAGICBOOK
>> [_] Anon 1382119 >># Sir, I wasn't being too serious about that. I LIKED THAT DONKEY. I'LL MISS YOU PONCHOS ;_;
>> [_] Anon 1382121 >># I've run a few high level wizards since 1.0. They actually start buying books almost exclusively at higher levels... which is nice. Just wish they would do that earlier.
>> [_] Anon 1382122 Are the characters supposed to use their skills by themselves, or do you have to do something for them to use it because none of my characters do anything but attack.
>> [_] Anon 1382123 >># They should use the skills by themselves. However, most skills aren't used in battle.
>> [_] Anon 1382124 lvl 15 cowboy killing things in one hit @ battlefield. the only time he dies is if something manages to one-hit him first.
>> [_] Anon 1382125 >># Priest Smite is like a faster, higher damage fireball. They only start using it at like Holy Smite level 5 which makes the start kind of suck. I don't really have the interest to test it further.
>> [_] Anon 1382127 Bard song on the other hand is like a combination of ice arrow and sneak attack. Too bad it's not as fast. Not sure how it handles at higher levels.
>> [_] Anon 1382128 Dear sir, my first "Sneak Attack" has frozen and broken my game.
>> [_] OP !8nHncBHSeM 1382135 >># That happens if you try to play an old character in the new version. Don't, you'll break them. It's because their skill arrays don't have that skill defined and they can't answer the question of whether they have that skill in the negative, so they'll try to use it and freeze.
>> [_] Anon 1382143 My rogue now has 50 million dex.
>> [_] Anon 1382145 The loot called 'saffire'? I assume you meant 'Sapphire'?
>> [_] Anon 1382164 so i'm up to level 6 as a wizard and he has yet to cast a single spell broken game
>> [_] Anon 1382180 At level 10, I got a quest to kill Boss Winter Wolves. Got to Cold Mountain, and killing anything counts as a BWW. Bug report'd.
>> [_] Anon 1382181 I finally to decided to "play" this game since everyone and their mother seem to be playing it. Shit sux. What is wrong with you people?
>> [_] Anon 1382190 wow poison is the worst spell ever. it does like 5 damage a battle.
>> [_] Anon 1382192 bard song = Epic He's still bring up his weapon, while I take my time and poison and beat the hell out of him.
>> [_] Anon 1382205 >># Poison used to be amazing before every battle found itself solved in a matter of two seconds.
>> [_] Anon 1382250 Loving slaughtering preadolescent mermaids with my wooden Uzi.
>> [_] Anon 1382260 >># trust me, you will know that its useful once you run out of mana, and it is the only thing hitting because you can't attack worth shit
