I think race respecs would be bad.... All the troll tanks would disappear.... and become small harder to target races.

non stacking attacks
the same way that if, say, 2 cave shammies dot the same target, one will hit, the other gets "target already has that effect" but similiar for all. so if, say, you have 4 warlocks in the group you get diminishing returns, first does 100%, 2nd does 75%, 3rd does 50%, 4th does 25% etc . so people actually group like they used to in the old days and stop opting everything.. group with mates playing whatever and have fun instead of min maxing :fluffle:

I like this idea - although the first example will get 'target already ahs that effect' surely?

the cave shammy example was purely to illustrate how having multiples of one character in a group gains you nothing due to non stacking attacks;)

I want special arrows.

Elemental Damage Arrows - doing the 6 missing forms of damage, craftable by people with enough fletching.

HereIAM arrow - Shoot someone with the arrow (doesn't do damage, but can't be blocked) and you can see their position on your /map for ten minutes.

KnockKnock arrow - Does half damage, but shoves people 200 units away from the archer.

PotArrow - Variant on poison, cast-time debuff while the user is admiring the pretty-pretty clouds and contemplating the color purple.

CatNip/MobNip arrow - Arrow laced with a generic mob-luring agent, which instantly aggroes any neutral/hostile mob in a 500 unit range. Perhaps usable to redirect pet-aggro as well.

Just a few ideas. :)

a solo BG
the same damage/speed calculations for casters as tanks
an npc based at each realms main rvr entrance, dl etc, that removes rvr RS, pain in the arse to have to wait for it to drop before you can go out again.
rare drops that can be used as ingredients for crafting, not as a replacement slot but an extra alch slot for instance, be it stat cap, /use2 or something, would make crafted parts more attractive.
increase the slots on a crafted part from 4 to 6
change the ingredients needed for leggy weapons, make the parts stackable. (like they did with linings)
bigger variety of skins for crafted armour and weapons, partical effects on weapons for example.
get rid of the vanish RA, an assasin picks most of his fights, he shouldnt be able to just bugger off if it goes tits up.
give back the old som charge so at least we dont look stupid when in som mode. (make the shape change removable while keeping the proc)
fix the way con on weapons makes you lose hits if you switch (1h has 20 con, 2h has 20 con, you lose hits when switching)

  • Some kind of in-game communication, like vent, or e-mail, a message board etc
  • New classes/races
  • Better crafting system - bring back the point to crafting, drops are far better and have more utility than we could ever dream of imbueing(sp?)
  • Ability to add 'glow' to your weapons (been after this since like day one)
  • More epic dungeons to raid
  • Erm... more people to play with :)

I seem to come up with mostly fluff, though I have been working on my own way of sorting out the crafting situation. The bits of fluff I would like to see.

-Quest Checklist: Pretty much what it says. A window pops up with details of what quests you have done and haven't done. Some of us like to do a bit of questing when bored.
-Artifact Checklist: Pretty much same as above, except this tells you what artifact credit you have and haven't got. Sometimes it can be forgotten.
-Banker NPC: Housing merchant where you can drop any amount of money for easier transfer between characters.


As for the ultimate bit of fluff: Horse Racing and Jousting! An area you can zone in to where there's a track for both racing and jousting.

I would like ingame voice chat... Like standing in camelot crafting or something, and ppl within a certain radius could hear you. I know about teamspeak and other thirdparty program, but imo an ingame voicethingy could be fun.

All the Boss Mobs in Daoc (Like Dragon, Hydra, Balnor, Legion, The SI Dungeons like Galladoria, etc) should get new Loot to make them interesting again!

You would have people running through ligen yelling *** is a f*ckhead t*tbrain.. etc etc a shame really cuz it would be nice if there would be no abuse ;)

I like the starting point respec as i had put 10 quick on my luri ns and 10 quick on my bard back in the day.... newbism 4tw :D

And the transfer vaultkeeper in ligen is very good idea imo

And ofc Advertising would be great ;) bit late now though.. but it is truly weird i hardly ever seen daoc mentioned in big game magizines etc.. I mean really, fire the PR guy...

some UI modifications like being able to split the current log windows in two, close them, create new ones with different font sizes, different things showing in them etc

if you ever played wow you know the damage indicators there, the damage you do shows ontop of the npc/character you do it to, and with a certain mod damage and events that happen to you can seen over your own chars head, thing i most miss about wow

and, if you have a lvl50 rr5+ ml10 cl5 char all new chars created should gain
like cl3 ml5 on ding50

I just really wish they'd give in and steal the postal system from WoW. Would make scamming so much harder if you could just sort out your own transfers and not have to rely on other people.

Typing /quest will show what you've completed also shows artifact encounters


i'd like to see a whineless community about how others play the game :)

Some better crafting tbh :) remember in the old times when there was kind of honour in being a crafter , also do so you can craft other looks on armor then the standard boring one :(

update the old lands with new epic mobs that drops high util items an you need a zerg for :)

also make the dragon of the realms harder so a fg cant do it anymore..

Really really like these ideas. Top stuff that'd make the game much better tbh :)
