I suggest that the PC lycanthrope Damage Resistance be changed to 10/+2, 5/+1 like the Greater Chosen used to be in EFU!

Thoughts?

Thirsting

I think what you meant is 10/+1 & 5/+2, because otherwise 5/+1 would have no effect with 10/+2 in place at the same time.

Sounds like a nice thing to apply to high level lycanthropes rather than across the board.
Unless +1 wpns are more common than I think (which is entirely possible).

They're not, but the spell magic weapon is!

Yes, indeed sir.

Given how the server is awash in Magic Weapon charge ambient loot, I don't think this suggestion is too crazy!

Not.Him.Again

I 100% agree. I know my current character has yet to be in a situation where he has -not- had at lease one charge of magic weapon via some trinket.

I think this is a good idea, but would it not make them sort of invincible on scripted quests? Unless there are actually quite a few enemies that carry +2 weapons around.

Snoteye

I share Wern8's concern, but not his enthusiasm.

Caddies

Any scripted quest where a lycanthrope can shift freely on will destroy it anyway. Very few monsters on scripted quests have +1 magic weapons, at least from what I have seen.

Letsplayforfun

Maybe making better as the lvl of the PC goes up? Like +1 at lvl2-7, +2 at lvl8+?

Not that it concerns many pcs... or does it? *forges a silver dagger*

Damien

Also considering when you shift you lose your AC from armour so your ac becomes shit anyway (if you're not a dex based build) so I don't think this would make much of a difference on scripted quests but would help bring some fear facing them if its PC vs PC

Wern8

From what I know, there are actually quite a few monsters with +1 weapons. But there might not even be any with +2 or higher weapons. There is a huge difference in this. And Damien, AC does not matter if you are basically immune to damage. It's basically like you could only be killed by spells or traps.

And I thought ECL/LA characters have been given an easier time recently, in terms of XP gain? Although, my concern is mostly just about scripted quests.

Oh my, the truth has been revealed.
