Request: Battle Damage

[Slevin_Impudicus]

This has been requested before, but personally I don't think it'd work out. As often as considerable damage is taken and healed it would turn off and on far too frequently, potentially producing unnecessary lag. Furthermore, you wouldn't really have any time to truly appreciate it. Also if it isn't tied to remaining HP then what would it be tied to, not to mention how would it be remedied?

Easy. Just tie it to the equipment condition and have it cleaned when mended.
I agree this would be a major graphics/data burden though. If they implemented it, but then had to provide a user setting to toggle it off for performance reasons, then it's better just to fix a more pressing issue.

Tied to equipment condition = awesome.
Overlay on the body of dirt marks and scuffs that appear as the condition worsens. Dings and gouges on weapons would be cool too. Functionality wise it'd be a good way to show that your gear was getting close to needing repairs.
I agree it should need an option to turn it off since it would add some processing requirement to users machines.


I don't think it should be just poo-poo'd away as "we have other things that would be better use of dev time". While this isn't what I'd like instead of my new relic quests, I would like the devs putting a little time into it when they could.

That's more worn gear though than worn adventurer. Now that you mention it though worn gear is the previous request I was thinking of lol
