Horizons: Hoard Decay Changes - A Dragon Must Read!!!
|
Just in from AE, there is going to be some changes to the dragons hoards!! Read on...
The first change will be the removal of hoard decay. Armor and Breath Ability damage will still be tied into it as they are now, but there will be no constant decay to the hoard itself. This should make it much more possible to casually build a hoard, without resorting to manufacturing. Additionally, we intend to add loot drops with a high hoard value to make it easier to build up out in the battlefields.We do still want some kind of degradation, however, largely to encourage a dragon to keep building it. Ideally, though, this is voluntary and under the player's control. To this end, the second change will be the alteration of probably two lines of dragon abilities. Vital Strike and Ice Strike (or possibly Dragon Reach, instead) will both be getting a dramatic upgrade, with the caveat that using them will cost a dragon a portion of their hoard. In addition, adult dragons will get a new ability line, which is capable of converting a portion of damage taken into hoard damage. Together, these abilities should make a dragon a formidable creature -- if they are willing to expend some hoard to do it.
