In reference to an earlier post viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1625 where I referred to the current HK in the game to basically an Elite with a different name I propose a change and I wanted to see what everyone thought.


1 - Change the Hunter Killer class of creatures to be more like a "Super-Elite" in fallensword.

2 - NOT be part of a mission

3- Drop usable items rather than components.

4 - Found in different areas at different times.

5 - Change the current HK in the game to an Elite

I think that doing the above would set the HK apart as something more prestigious and sought after rather than a race to find and kill.

bah... for now I say leave it as it is. and as game evolves, there will be more areas, more HKs, etc. so it won't stay like that probably.

edit: and please don't remove HKs from mission. it's great in the "other game" and I hope they continue in that way here too.

2nd edit: only part I agree is make random spawn times... I thought they learned the lesson for that one in the "other game". so far not dramatic but it will get boring fast if they don't tweak that.

So then if nothing is changed what is the difference between an Elite and a Hunter Killer... So far I dont see a difference.

differences will get bigger as game evolves... there is so little content that there is not much space for "differentiation" so far heh. and I mean that on many aspects of the game...

way too early to say it will stay all the same. patience...

the difference is the elite sets suck. the HK sets are actually useful...(speaking of... has anyone completed a set yet?)

Ive seen some players with a few of the set items of the current HK set. But I have heard that the lvl 20 elite set is very good

Sorry I like it the way it is. Its a challenge to get the HK, only thing I would change is make it harder to kill, but other than that I like the way it is.

1. No, its fine how it is for it being the first HK in the game.

2. I agree with this.

3. Agree completely.

4. Thats another good suggestion that should be implemented into the game.

5. I would have to say no, because theres no need for it.

4 - Found in different areas at different times.

5 - Change the current HK in the game to an Elite

1. Or perhaps stop trying to get Sigma to be a carbon copy of FS.

2. Again, stop trying to create FS2. I enjoy how missions can actually be challenging here, and with a semi storyline

3. I highly highly doubt this would happen. From what I've seen so far, Sigma's theme is that pretty much everything drops components. No actual equips. I don't think they want to stray from this.

4. Perhaps, but I doubt they'll do it.

5. I don't actually care since I'm not a HK hunter unless I happen to stumble upon while PvPing at the right time.

Also, to answer Supmet's question. 1 piece away from a full set :twisted:

I like the fact that elite/hk's only drop components. It adds difficulty to the game that I think is necessary.

Don't change the class, as some people have said as the game develops the difference between hk and elite will get much larger.

KEEP it as part of a mission. Not all missions should be beatable by everyone. And I say that knowing that I have NOT completed that mission. I think that's the way it should be.

Making it spawn in different areas or at least at random times would be great!

I found it two times on two tries and was well able to solo it...
