Boons

Post by justakid88 »

I have been treasure hunting for the past few months now, and have not found a Boon. Thus I have rendered you cannot get them from treasure map chests anymore? I really think they should be put back into the game, because it made a real impact on the whole economy of dl. Even if they are rarer then the already really rare ultra runes, it would still be a great astonishment to see a boon pop up in your chest. I think the way the formula should be set up is as follows, or closely related to it.

Have all kinds of boons: Tax, Fame, Honor, Experience, Glory, Favor, Gold, Silver, Bronze, Map, Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, Charisma, Luck, and best and rarest of all, Level


Tax- 100k gold to tax box for citadel

Fame- give 1 point of fame, which will stand for something later in the game

Honor- give 1 point of honor, which will stand for something later in the game

Experience- give specific amount of experience, maybe 1000, to that player

Glory- 10 glory points

Favor- completely fill you favor level, or if already at 2500, raise to 3000 temporarily

Gold- give a High amount of gold when saced, like 30k :idea:

Silver- give a Medium amount of gold when saced, like 20k :idea:

Bronze- give a Small amount of gold when saced, like 10k :idea:

Map- give a random map when saced, (kind of rare) :?:

Strength- temporarily add +5 strength (rare)

Dexterity-temporarily add +5 dexterity (rare)

Constitution- temporarily add +5 constitution (rare)

Intelligence- temporarily add +5 Intelligence (rare)

Charisma- temporarily add +5 charisma (rare)

Luck- temporarily add +5 luck (rare)

Level- automatically raise the players lvl by one, (Very Rare) :?:

If there are any objections to it, I would love for yall to post why. And please tell me if this sounds like a good formula. Or if you have any other feedback about it.

Thanks,

Edit:

Have a chance to get a Boon from all chests, just make it harder to get a boon on the easier chests.

childish map- Have like a real low chance of getting a boon
simple map- Have a low chance of getting a boon
stained map- Have a ok chance of getting a boon
tattered map- Have a better chance of getting a boon
cryptic map- Have the best chance to get a boon

Also, with the amount of coins we get in the chest, they could be lowered as they are whenever you find an Ultra Rune.

Example;

When you look inside, you see:
A small chest
---------------- --------------------- ----------------
capacity small condition pristine
size Medium value (gold) 2
weight (lb) 2
A small chest contains:
Treasure
(fine) 6041 gold coins
(Glowing) Fame Boon

[instead of]
When you look inside, you see:

---------------- --------------------- ----------------

size Medium value (gold) 2

Treasure

Change it to 1-2 fame/honor on the fame/honor boons, and increase the glory to 10 on the glory boon

Gone to notice i love that boons are back in, but they seem te be a little more rare than i think they ought to be, it takes me about 150 maps to find one.. maybe if you added the bronze,silver,gold and maybe platinum boons it would make it more of a surprise :)

:idea: platinum=60k
:idea: maybe have pieces of boons
