Last because you need absolutely everything else in place before this will be "fair". You need people who CAN cast life spells before you can have people who need it; otherwise you have a GK-like situation where All you need to do is buy a Life Potion, h'yuk, it's only 600p. Works out to mining 12,000 gold nuggets, no problem at all for a newbie!
Again, you're putting this into GK. Oasis is NOT GK. There are no life potions to buy. I would not release Oasis without things like that completed. :|
Rapidfire death happens in quests. You put in a boss - a dangerous boss - and set it so it attacks anyone who touches it. Then players stand still and let the boss touch them instead. Well that will never do! So you have the boss attack anyone on any tile it occupies. Suddenly it drains everyone in the level to 0 health within a second. Oops! So you fix that, now it only drains the person touching it to 0. D'oh! So you put in a delay, but already at least 2 people need to be "restored", probably a lot more. And that's assuming they repop somewhere safe; if they revive where they died, they get the pleasure of dying again immediately. If they repop somewhere safe with full health, they can run from anyone who attacks them; otherwise you get PKs who stab you back to 0, wait for you to get up, stab you back to 0 again...
Um, first off, I wouldn't add such a glitchy boss without testing it privately first. Secondly, I would never script something that stupid.
Then there's balance issues. Surely those who have been playing longer deserve to be stronger than the newbies, but by what scale? Can an oldbie stab a newbie to death in 3 hits? 2? Then newbies hardly have a chance to run; they need some manner of protection. Noplayerkilling zone? There's still no command to clear that...
There are no NPK zones on Oasis. You're thinking inside the box. Which makes me feel like you're not listening to anything I say. Yes, an oldbie could stab a newbie to death in a few hits, but with the systems in place that I would have, I doubt it would happen. If it did, there would be many ways to seek justice for that person.
Again, stop putting these scenerios into GRAAL KINGDOMS. Oasis IS NOT GRAAL KINGDOMS. You won't be able to "buy" life in shops, there won't be such stupid glitches like a boss killing everything instantly. How would that even get past alpha testing? I mean don't you think I'd be testing the damage done while I was making the script? I don't just put up scripts blindly and hope that they are bug free.
