Hi there everyone.

 

We're considering taking some time to create new content for the Realm Chests. The question is, what would we like to see? 

 

Specific types of Gear? Sets? Sets spread across multiple chests?

 

Not sure potions work. There'd be demands for them to be more powerful, which is impractical. They really do not need to be more powerful.

 

Random "Quest Items", specifically for use in future invention recipes? Possibly future Hunted Cow Titan Epics? Could be used for invention of new gear across the game. Arena, PvP, GvG etc.

 

Frag Stashes in cheaper Chests with large quantities of specific Frags? Like, LARGE quantities.

 

Your thoughts and suggestions on this matter are most welcome!

Having more powerful potions in chests makes the most sense because supply is low and demand is high. The issue with very powerful potions is when the supply is unlimited so it can just be used all the time.

Chi Strike 750 is debatably one of the most OP potions in the game (Comes from chests) and because of it's low supply you have to pick and choose when to use it.

I don't think anyone would have any gripes if another powerful potion (maybe leveling related) was added to chests.

Definitely yes to more frag chests (and yes to cheaper and more chests).

 

EpicPiety makes a good point. Have powerful potions through chests. Not necessarily "more" powerful than the existing ones, but have the rarer potions available through chests.

 

I like the idea of sets spread across different chests. More opportunity to create trades between players (and to fleece each other :P). Have new sets, and then have medals for players who complete a specific number of sets.

 

Add some dangerous chests as well. You open one and you lose 100 stam. You open one and your realm goes dark (require vision to be activated) (I don't know if this would be feasible though :D). You open one and you lose 1000 gold. You open one and your gear gets rusted and needs repairs. Not too harmful and not impractical penalties either, but small scale and varied. And similar small scale gains would also be welcome (random common gear; arena tokens; stam refill of 100, one additional bank deposit for that day, etc.). More such "chance" chests to be found. These would need to be cheaper to open, though. Some can be empty as well for that matter.

I think it would be fine if there were more powerful potions like conserve 800. There would not be enough of them brought into the game to be used often.

I think could add more themed chests, based on each game aspect, like a Titan based chest; possible rewards include items related to future Epic creation, Teleport and/or Titan Doubler potions, recipes. PvP based that gives Arena token stash, Ladder stash, potions, recipes etc. Composing based where it gives a substantial gold drop (like 1,000,000 or however voted on) various large Frag quantities, etc. Leveling based chest that gives smaller quantities of FSP (like 1-10 for example), various mid-tier to high-tier single leveling buff potions (like an Adept Learner 650 pot, or Conserve 800 as suggested)

Could bring the gods into it, assign one to each of the 4

Other than rare potions from the chests as pointed out above (only current useful thing dropped IMO)

 

It may be good to have components dropped from Chests that can Make a few epic items. My 1st thought would be similar to the original Writhing Ward shield. Need component A,B, and C to make some new epics.

 

I would say 5-6 total components dropped in chests with 5-15 new epics spread across 50-6000 to invent. Each epic depending on level would need some combo of 2-4 of the components to make.

Maybe add potions like immobilise Titan, perfection, and high level enchants similar to the lvl 1k enchant weapon ? Could maybe have special items in that give a larger than normal xp/gold gain just for the fun of it, think everyone would prefer there stam gain epics but would be cool to see. Maybe add a fighters chest that gives x amount of PvP or arena tokens ?

I would like to see fragment stashes but with the contents significantly higher or maybe stashes like we receive from the fragment global events with a range of fragments in each chest.

 

Set items would be good as the current items are pretty much useless apart from the few that are used for inventing. Sadly as things progress items and other things in the game become out of date so an update would be appreciated.

 

Thanks for your hard work.

Could maybe add reserve stam in there or other player upgrades eg component slot, bp or ah slot, max stam similar to the dqs and for the fighters chest I suggested before could also add bounty tickets.

Hey Peeps!

 

Okay, Frag Stashes are a big yes. Rather, substantial Frag Stashes are requested. That's definately something we can add.

 

I reckon you've changed my mind on Potions. Ideas for potions are welcome, though remember some buffs are specific to Potions, Composing etc.

 

Not gonna see FSP, when Mystic Chests give Shards.

 

Quest Items specifically for Invention is definately something that I hope would be interesting.

Upgrades? Unlikely. But who knows?

How about also adding a x2 of  the content of a treasure chest for the Crystal and Gold key chests.

 

For example, a random roll may give x1 potion or the roll may give x2 of same potion.

 

 

Also, maybe have a few "stacked" potions in a container.

Not sure if stacked container is possible though since 1 potion might be used and then 

have it placed in AH for sale short a potion or 2...hmm

It takes a ton of stamina and time to find chests. I think finding chests is possibly the hardest thing to do consistently in FS.

1 Unique pot to encourage someone to go around and find more would be:

 

Lightfoot Pot (2000) or something pretty close to that.

 

Another could be a higher Titan Doubler (300-400) range

 

High level Counter Attack (500+)

 

Invigorate (1000+) 720 min duration (good for offline defense in epics)

I'm all in favour of pretty much any and all changes to chests as long as the "value" of the item is commensurate with the price of the key to open the chest.

I do like the idea of LARGE frag stashes ..

The quest item idea is intriguing - but how would that work tho ? - would it be a specific item for a specific quest item ? - or would it be a "voucher" that allows you to get a specific quest item from a shop ? - more details on the thoughts behind this please ?

 


Homer : Marge, don't discourage the boy. Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals .. except the weasel.

 

Eddie Izzard : The National Rifle Association say that guns don't kill people, people do. But I think the gun helps, you know ? I think it helps. I think just standing there going "BANG" - that's not going to kill too many people, is it ?

 

I don't mean to sound pessimistic, but it seems that everything I eat lately turns to poo ...

Multiple chances in a chest could be interesting. Something to consider.
 
Crates having Containers? Dunno. Maybe?

I'll have to double check those numbers versus what exists and what those levels would be but thanks for the suggestions. smile.png

It would be what it sounds like. A specific Quest Item that would used in multiple invention recipes.

Conserve or AL 800 could be on the table. Probably stick it at a low duration like 60m though. 

Overkill 1100 could be fun.

Is the realm chest the treasure hunter chests? if so I would like to see a new skill potion for artisan like chance to make 2 potions. haven't seen a new artisanship buff for awhile. its usually always a new combat buff. ofc it could only be found in realm chests.

How about like… a sorta Cow themed piñata as the chest? Maybe even give reference to HCG staff?

Arioche’s Cloche, Stash of Hoof’s Hooves, Grim’s Grimmer Glimmers? Maybe even run a player contest to have them design and come up with good chest ideas/contents? The Titan Design was a fairly solid hit, so why not?
