I am willing to pay for this
In case you didn't see the thread, or if you don't support vapus, which I understand, this is my idea (I added some since the thread anyways)
I'm looking into a system that uses custom jewels (probably custom sprites which I will make) to upgrade items, specifically armor and weapon type items. When I refer to armor types, I mean all of them. helmet, armor, legs, boots and shield. amulets, rings, backpacks and any other item are not included.
I haven't thought of any names yet, but:
Jewel1 = random amount of extra attack or extra defense on weapons between 1 and 5 (attribute is random between those two also), also should have a limit of 3 uses of jewel1 per item
Jewel2 = adds extra hp or mana to item (could be armor or weapon types) amount of hp/mana and whether it chooses hp or mana to add is all random and values should be between 25 and 200 (limit of 5 jewel2 uses per item)
Jewel3 = adds random amount of magic level to the item between 1 and 3 (limit of 3 jewel3 uses per item)
Jewel4 = increases attack and defense of weapons and increases armor of armors and defense of shields by a set amount per use (3 attack and defense per use, 3 armor per use, 3 defense per use) with a limit of +10 per item (when an item is upgraded each time, it should add the text +1, +2, +3 to the item, for example: You see a fire sword +3 (atk: x def: y extraatk: z extradef: w) and then the weight, description, etc. as normal. The +3 means it has been upgraded with jewel4 3 times.) an addition is that if the item is +6, using another jewel can make it go to +7, make it go down to +5 (also removing 3 of each applicable attribute when going down) or make it go back to +0 (no jewel4 upgrades will remain) and it will remove 3 applicable attributes per level it goes down (so it goes back to normal values) and lastly, when it reaches +7 it becomes more difficult (more rare) to get it up more and there is a larger chance of failing (if it's +7 or higher and fails, it goes to +0 by default) it can be used any number of times but only up to +10 and if it goes below +10 after that, it can be used again till +10 again
Jewel5 = increases or decreases attack speed by 50 (increase/decrease decision is random) and can be used 3 times per item (even if it decreases more than increases, for risk of making items worse)
Jewel6 = 5-15% chance (randomly generated chance between 5 and 15) to make the item become a "flawless" item. this will add ALL applicable attributes that jewels1-3 and 5 add [will not be affected by the stuff in jewel4], with random values still)
also, it will change the article of the item from "a/an/the" to "a flawless". Example:
You see a fire sword. Bla bla bla.
You see an arbalest. Bla bla bla.
You see the avenger. Bla bla bla.
and
You see a flawless fire sword. Bla bla bla.
You see a flawless arbalest. Bla bla bla.
You see a flawless avenger. Bla bla bla.
Jewel7 has the ability to add a random amount of elemental resistance or weakness between 1 and 4% to armors/shields (example: +4% ice, -2% fire, -1% earth, etc.) and should include all main elements (physical, earth, fire, energy, ice, death, holy) where element and whether or not it gains resistance or weakness is random also. If used on a weapon, it will increase earth, fire, energy, ice, death or holy damage (not physical, as that would just be silly) randomly by a random number between 1 and 4% also.
I may think of more ideas later. I hope all this is possible, as I would love to have this system in my server. Efficiency is not a huge issue, so if it takes A LOT of code, that's perfectly fine. Actions, creaturescripts, movements, whatever it takes to make it. I'm okay with making source edits if needed, also.
