That kinda Looks like an DragonHmmm... Here's my suggestions how could Celebration look... Yeah, they aren't very good (it's my second sprite ever) or even look like firework launcher... but it's not meant to be. At least, they look pretty (a bit...) cool.
Actually, this sounds pretty awesome, something I might try myself later on as well!(Off-topic: Due to this topic, I've started a little Explosives-only run for the fun of it.It lets me use the "Throwing Class" until WoF, then Range for that onward because Hellfire arrows / Explosive Bullets / Rockets / Stynger / Nailgun. It's pretty awesome.
That signature, I like it, even the sprite. It's alienish and large and glowing and cool and I like it.Esmerelda the Slime Girl's signature said:
I vote Rangers get a Nuke instead of Fireworks. :3
But IMO a Minigun/Gatlinggun would be the best Choice!Celebration on-topic again?
Well, I'd like to see it go. Let it go, let it gooo... xD
There's no way we could make it good, because there is no good part to keep from it.
Especially from the last boss, we expected Grand Theft Loot.
Instead, it's just Unlimited Farm Works in order to feed our new dolphin which eats ammo like omnomnom-nom-nom.
Call ofCthulhuDutyTerraria: Steampunk Warfare just failed to give us the ultimate gun. Mages got the ultimate spell, warriors have the ultimate blade and even summoner have - not too powerful, but - useful drops.
Obviously I can't see Re-Logic changing their mind about that weakling fish, as it has a tradition. The tradition of dealing crappy damage, eating ammo and being a fish. They just won't change anything about that ever.
Even if I were optimistic about guns, I wouldn't expect a Gatling Gun or any direct upgrade to the Chain Gun, tradition stops them from doing so.
We could, on the other hand, get at least a decent rocket launcher.
We already have a bow, the only problem is that they just can't get bored of nerfing it, like if it was Irelia or something. If it continues like this, it's base damage will reach 0 before 1.3.1 is released. xD
I don't even play League of Legends, but better nerf irelia is a meme you can't ignore on the internets...
As we have a bow - for now until it gets nerfed to do negative damage - and we will never have a gun - as tradition forbids cool guns - the only general ranged weapon type left is... ...rocket weaponry.
Which by coincidence is the only weapon type for which we can buy the best ammo from a vendor.
That's why I demand that if a rocket launcher is dropped from the final boss of a game, that thing must be godly, I mean Unreal, pun intended. We desperately need that awesome rocket launcher, before I break my mouse using the Electrospehere Launcher. xD
Actually, this sounds pretty awesome, something I might try myself later on as well!
That signature, I like it, even the sprite. It's alienish and large and glowing and cool and I like it.
Hell no, not another ammo-eater. Ammo is a problem with a fire rite over 10/s already.
Made it myself this morning. :3
Balancing isn't that hard, just maths and some experience with the game.
Umm... Sorry, but I must say it: Wepons with warmup are for continuous firing, as well as hellish firerate. I don't want more od these ammo devourers... I'd prefer to repel Tyranid invasion with stick than have another ammo-eater.
That's why I'm drilling Kardfogu a hole in belly to update first post and then write to devs. Alternatively, I could do the latter for him.Also, I think we've kinda thought up every possible way to balance the Ranger in this thread by now. xD
From ammo, to weapons, to armor set bonuses; We've pretty much gone through them all. I guess we're just waiting on a dev to check it out?
I wouldn't mind if it could use it's own, unique ammo - something like "Energy Pellets" or other of this kind.
Your drills can pierce the heavens!
Actually I already included everything in the calculations when I said 5000, but this thing would be my favourite plaything at the moment anyways. As for a comparison, 4455 is the base DPS of the S.D.M.G. which is subpar to all mage weapons and to most warrior weapons too. On the other hand, this weapon loses less DPS to defense and is much more ammo efficient.Ah, okay. So this would be balanced as EndGame?
"The Nuke"
4500 Ranged Damage (A little less than what you suggested, since we have items to boost the damage anyway. Imagine this with all the Damage / Ranged Damage modifiers! xD)
Insane Knockback
"Charge it up, then unleash Hell."
Takes 3 seconds to charge.
Can not be fired uncharged.
Takes 5 rockets per shot.
Just call it "Nuke" and make it cost 1 gold for each or craftable from the celestial shards/luminite, this thing can destroy bosses in one shot, so it could "maintain" itself.
75 % Not consuming Ammo is Enough for 233 Damage (Without Modifiers/ Armor Bonuses) and it would shoot 35/per sec.
How would it shoot 35 times per second? Due to how the game works, it would be either 30 or 60 times.
For example: use time of 2, with a 1/6 chance of releasing double projectile.
Maybe something like 1 gold + 1 luminite ore for pellet. That would be expensive, but just enough, as from ML You get about 70 of them, and gold are neither too precious, nor too cheap.
so It could only fire 30/Per Sec or 40/per sec?
In "standard" fastest possible speeds are:
Well, slightly too OP, even 200 base damage x20 deals 4000 base damage, beyond the DPS of the infamous Last Prism which is kinda overkill along with stealth. That's something I consider powerful enough to not mind eating all my ammo instantly.
So 215 DMG and 20/per sec...with a 75 % not to Consume ammo with 2 Seconds "Warm up/Spin up" Time...Still too OP?
Sorry, enough guns. I like Nuke (or Tournament, variant Redeemer [
is so awesome I had to colour it]) idea, as they are both badass and unique.
They need to add atleast One/Two new Rocket Launchers and 2 New Guns IMOSorry, enough guns. I like Nuke (or Tournament, variant Redeemer [
