New item - painkillers
« on: September 18, 2011, 03:13:04 pm »

I've been thinking about some way to increase chances for survival for new players and came upon this idea: Easily crafted painkillers (made from broc or xander) Which would work somewhat similar to Super stims but in another way

If you would take a painkiller it would temporarely heal you for 15 (or 20) HP (as well as capping your max HP 15 - 20 higher than normal). After a while it would subside (just as super stim's withdrawal effect) That would be nice for a newbies as those increased HP would add to their survival chances. For high level players 15 or 20 HP is not much of a difference.

Another way of implementing those would be by a doctor profession. In that case advanced painkillers combined with sedatives and stabilizers resulting in the above bonus plus:
- All damage resistances would rise for 5% (except poison and rad resists)
- No withdrawal damage from super stims
- Sequence LOWERED by 10 (down to one point)
- AC from agility lowered by half (round up) or fully
- OR - 1 Perception instead of two above cases

I don't know however if this would be easy or hard to implement in FOnline

So please comment on this (and entire post)

Like this idea. I suggested a "doctor overhaul" sometime ago, and i dunno how could i have missed paikillers!
I personally prefer to see it with the stats of oyur first idea (small heal, max health increased) but adding it to Doctor [1] would make sense, and make Doctor [1] a little more useful. Plus REMOVE WORKBENCH REQUIREMENT!

The question is - are devs considering adding new items at all?

(also please for more comments ;) )

No matter how good or bad is idea, there are simple no chances to implement it at the moment.

After the wipe none would remember your idea so it will die... sorry but thats how this forum suggestions section works.

See my speech count?

25% means that i already should know that most suggestions have less than 5% chance to be implemented

That still won't stop me from suggestions that may make this game better  :)

Quit crying! You'll discourage other from commenting! Shoo! ;p

I wouldn't post this if it wasn't something with absolutely no chances to be implemented

(cause this would balance the game towards new players a bit imo)

Lotsa stuff would have helped alot new players, without others even noticing, and was trolled by everyone around.

Well i haven't been around for a while (from the time you could find junk in barrels) so i don't exactly know what was trolled during my absence

I think that (at least first from two tiers of) painkillers should be implemented
second tier is only optional

According to this idea, these painkillers are pretty similar to how psycho has worked last era and before. Except that these painkillers are way more weak according to psycho. It was possible to make a blind-psycho-suicider, which was one of the most proficient builds. It was a good time, when PvP was mostly dependant on the player's skill, not its build, plus the swarm wasn't the decisive factor. I liked it back then, and thus I like this idea.

Well i meant a feature for helping new players but no obsolete for hi-levs

And yes - somewhat veeeery limited psycho (exactly as a strong painkillers should work)
