Legendary Items

[CaineDeSoulis]

legendary = Orange stuff.

anyone else remember the rarity system

Dark Grey = Common
White = Fine
Green = Uncommon
Blue = Rare
Purple = Epic
Orange = Legendary

Is this still true. (1st to come up with a new name for full orange gladiators win's an internet)
I'll call them Pumpkins ^_^ any more ideas?

I have a Couple of Questions I dont expect many answers but worth a shot.

Will gladiators still be able to fight in the blood games and participate in a conquest? in the arena? will there be a leader board? how long will a conquest take in terms of time? Can you give an Example name of a legendary item? (Soul-stained,Heroic,Soul-tanned,Epic and Masterwork are all purple names) what was your favorite part of developing the "Conquest" system? Can we have Javelins? How about nets?....Can i throw a ball and chain at an enemy?

In Regards to storyline

I'm not sure an actual story arch is required. So far its been completely player driven in my mind. With 2 factions currently rising "Rage United" and "The Imperium" (Crow/Oedi). A "Friendly" political atmosphere is starting to develop based solely off of competition. With all the challenges flying back and forth from both sides its starting to turn into a war. Iv'e had more fun in the past few weeks than I ever have had in the pits. Now we just need something tangible to fight over.

A throne....in my eyes the Society that would support this kind of bloodshed in this type of low fantasy atmosphere would be a very very grim Combat Based Meritocracy. Where in the prowess of a combatant in the arena/blood games would rewarded with not only survival but leadership roles within the government structure. Most likely considering the combative nature of the great realms this leadership role would relate in some form or fashion to Warfare and/or the Defense of the Civilian Population.

In terms of why and how this system came about is a fairly simple matter. The Great Realms is FILLED with Daemons,Trugs,Snivlers,Urks,Spite,Beast men,Monsters and whatever the F%#@ Apocalypse is. Only the strong can survive and then only the strongest can lead. While at the Same time the Weak live in COMPLETE servitude in order to increase their survivability.

Lets Face it. The Great Realms is a Hellish Dystopian Nightmare world. Where Death/Disease/Famine and War are as common as dirt or sand. Now lets RULE IT.
