Magic item questions...

leafe · Post by **leafe** » Sun Apr 11, 2004 5:38 pm

1) I already realize there won't be the uber-items of NS3, but just how rare will magic items be? Will we have to craft almost all of them?

2) Also, will there be True Seeing items? What about immunity items?

3) Will True Seeing continue to work as normal?

I was under the impression that there wont be true seeing items, as they had a tendancy to make rogues and shadow dancers near useless since there might is in there hiding.

Hrm..very good question..I guess we will have to play to see

There is magic all over the place to be had.

True seeing will not be an effect on an item. There may be a couple of items capable of casting it but you have to wear them.

There are still uber items, its all relative to the world and the creatures you face.

We have just redefined the term uber.

Yes from what I have gathered the items wont be as Godly as the ns3 items were and with the level restirctions placed on them there wont be that Level 40 in 5 days deal anymore.....Bit more work involved to try out a new class.

No, you misread what he said. Trueseeing IS on items. just not as a permanent effect. I.e. you cast it from the item.

nah, u just misunderstood what i meant by truseeing being on an item. you are saying a spell is on an item and that spell is trueseeing...

my real point of that post was asking how trueseeing will function

What I gathered was that items will have the #/per day effects but not (at least for the most part) any type of perminent effect of this type. Of course with a decent lasting spell and no rest restrictions if you got the patience you got almost the same thing...... Me .... I would be just too lazy to bother

which bring up another question... can u rest whenever you want to? (battle permitting)

Exactly, I mean I know the docs arent done fully but there is a lot of details to weasel out of the dev's :wink:

As from what I've seen of Trueseeing (as cast by my sorc), it works just like it always has. I'm not sure about seeing other players though, because I haven't seen a rogue or shadowdancer with high enough move silently and sneak to get past my search skill.
