KotB Suggestion Thread

Well, they usually weigh half as much, and thus are less encumbering.

You know, that paragraph propelled me into ranting at length on special encounters, the design goals thereof and desired probabilites, but then I realized that with the optional Co8_config.ini, you can have your cake and eat it too. So I'm going to add a "make Special Encounters less rare" toggle, should please everyone, no?

 

It doesn't have to go to waste... it's always good to have more than one way to skin a particular cat...

 

Weight. While true that the Little People can have strengths of 18 and more . . . for me it just doesn't seem right that some half-pint who I can barely see on my screen can be strong enough to carry 100 pounds and more -- especially when some barely weigh a third of that. It's just a realism thing for me, is all. Little People have it rough enough with their light weapons. It would be nice if their armor didn't limit them down as well.

I see your point, though. More important things to do.

 

Father Leamus (Priest) has a Ring of Protection +1 in his Chest. As the finale of the Who's Raiding the Trading? quest, given that Father Leamus is expecting a confrontation with the player's party, surely Father Leamus would wear his Ring of Protection +1 in preparation for the expected confrontation with the player's party in order to increase his chance of survival.

During the One Flew Over the Harpy's Nest quest, if the player selects dialogue response number 2 in the image below



then if the player selects dialogue response number 2 in the image below



then the player will have the following dialogue responses in the image below



which will allow the player to kill Lady Maeri legitimately (i.e. Lady Maeri will attack the player's party). But if the player selects dialogue response number 1 in the second image, then the player will have the following dialogue responses in the image below



which prevents the player from killing Lady Maeri legitimately. It is impossible for the player to know which dialogue responses that the player has to select in order to be able to kill Lady Maeri legitimately, and it is unfair that the player is punished for selecting the dialogue response that uses one of the player's PC's social skills. I recommend either removing dialogue response number 1 in the second image, or adding another dialogue response in the fourth image (if the player selected dialogue response number 1 in the second image) that allows the player to kill Lady Maeri legitimately (i.e. which causes Lady Maeri to attack the player's party).

I never did any item crafting, I only sold items that I didn't want to keep, and I never bought any items that were priced more than 1000 gold. My party finished the KotB module with almost 96000 gold. I recommend adding a useful new way that the player can spend a lot of money on.

 

marc1967, how are you positioning thumbnail images where-ever you want in your posts? Are the images that you post in your posts being hosted by Co8.org or some third-party image-hosting site? I need to be able to do what you are doing so that I can idiot-proof my game guide & walkthrough for the Co8 Modpack New Content Edition sticky thread because new players refuse to examine all of the images that I have thumbnailed in that thread.
