Instances, first public test

[Entropy]

Imagine Zeddi being a/d 60's and magic 70+, he can enter an instance, designed for 60's a/d fighters and beat all the damn waves alone.

Lol, not gonna happen.

[Aphistolas]

Don't people with magic >70 who call themselves mages usually have +130 harm? :S

[Entropy]

So?

[Aphistolas]

I'd imagine most things around the sixties-seventies level would be more or less instantly killable by two or three of those harms, or am I grossly misinformed?

Depends on hp I guess. Afaik creatures from instances have higher hp than comparable normal creatures.

Those creatures have their a/d, armor, hp and weapons much higher than level 60-70 creatures.

Not at 70'ish, from what i know you'l need to be close or even over mag. 80 and i dont think harm will be the most tactical spell in an instance, 1 harm takes 8 essy's. Emu with sr's (emp's) will be 18 and building a mage char includes having not too much p/c, so emu will be low or you must be completely negged out.

 

For me the damage i do is still to important in the rest of the game, therefor i work on rat. more than emu.

 

Hearing more about the instances i must agree with Radu, mages wont be of much use in "higher" instances. So i'l just wait till there will be one for my own lvl. and the game being in progress we can always see what will happen then..

 

I'm sure if a strong mage with a/d at lower limit prooves to be too strong there will/might be some adjustments. Else we (mages) will be of very much use then and maybe more players will see the skill is of as much fun as just a/d training

I made it so that the waiting time in the isntances can be reduced (or eliminated) with serpent stones and invasion tokens. The changes are on the test server, so please test them.
