Boomerang & Judgement Knife

Vladamir Blackthorne · 06-05-2018

If the boomerang script is acceptable enough for the free for all event... Can we finally get a quest to get a boomerang outside the event? Might as well bring back the judgement knife from the good ol Graal The Adventure days too.

A boomerang would be great for pking.

I'd love to have Boomerang as well. I doubt they will implement it. I Also wish we had a different shield system. One where you have to press a button to block all damage in front of you. Besides bombs, But makes you more slower. But classic doesn't seem to care to improve the combat system.

Simple and easy. Should keep it like that

Would that shield theoretically block "bushes"?

I was gonna say yes, but now that I think about it. It shouldn't. In case a player is having problems dealing damage they can use Bushes which is usually always around

I say if you need to use it actively, make it block all incoming damage from the facing direction. Hell, make it REFLECT arrows and rocks!

I like the idea of an actual shield, but it would be weird in spar and corridors.

If it were to be in spar, the player holding the shield button shouldn't be able to change directions unless he or she let's go of the shield button. Probably doesn't belong in spar anyway. It is a sword fight, nonetheless.

Corridors are a problem in towers. A person can sit in the corridor and block all damage from swords and arrows. No one is going to have bombs on them at all times, so this could disrupt the flow of towering.

I don't know. Cool thought, but I don't know how it would work.

The shield is more something for Spar i think. Because it is as you said. A sword fight. A sword fight like classic is more like Fencing than an actual battle spar you'd see in Medieval times, In which was both Sword and shield.

The shield would I'd imagine have a Cooldown. 6 second cool down and you can only use it for 3 seconds. So you can't use it whenever, And the shield would make you about 50% slower so you only go half as fast. This way it grants a bit more balance between all weapons. Arrows become a bit more useful since they can hit all sides of you don't have a shield which makes the shield useful in corridors but not something that will make you spam on it. So even if you don't have bombs the shield won't last forever. Which this can open up for custom shields as well.

Not sure what you mean by Rocks, (Bushes?.... Unless you mean the rocks the rocks those spider things shoot out) But reflecting arrows would be a neat thing to see
