[dev1031] goblin airman

[Buttons]

I actually like this idea. It would make a very interesting NM fight, that could even be tied into a little Goblin storyline.

Imagine a tough NM fight where it starts off with one (or even multiple!) Goblin Airmen floating around hanging from balloons. At the start of the fight they can only be hit by mages. They drop bombs and you have to evade them, similar to the rank 46 storyline fight. The mages then proceed to pop the balloons, sending the goblins crashing to the ground, temporarily stunning them. Now the melee fighters can engage and damage the goblins. After a set time the goblins blow up new balloons and become airborne again.

I really like this idea. *Lalafell stamp of approval*

i imagine the goblin airman idea to be 3 goblins, 1 nm and 2 helpers. all 3 goblins fly on a shared balloon(s). while airborne it uses aoe attacks like bombs and hailmary style rockets. using ranged attacks (archer, gla's throwing daggers, pug's chakrums, etc) will allow you to incap the goblin airman's balloons much like incapping great buffalos legs. with the goblin airman(s) on the ground, the main nm will fight while the other 2 refill the balloons with air leaving you with 2 options; do burst dmg on nm while he is on the ground or try to kill the 2 helpers to ensure that the group doesn't get airborne again.

to me this sounds like such a fun fight and something completely different to what we currently have.


p.s. it would be super cool if some fantastic person can draw us a fantastic concept picture!
