[Expansion Concept] The Remnants Discipline
Discipline: The Remnants
Link to main threadNew System: Survival of the Fittest-
Players who are looking to get in good with The Remnants are rewarded for specific actions:
+1 Alignment for each bit of loot traded to Karven Bir.
+3 Alignment for each Victory in Combat Trials.
+5 Alignment for each Warden aligned player killed.
+10 Alignment for each "Getaway" Trial completed.
(Unlocked instantly) New System: The Remnant Treasury-
After joining the remnants, players can interact with bags of loot and essence beside Karven Bir to initiate a trade with the Remnant Leader. Being the generous scoundrel that he is, players can exchange up to three items(duplicates allowed) in their own inventory for an item they do not yet have.
They also gain a point toward Alignment for each bit of loot given, so yay.
(Unlocked at Alignment 45) New Combat Trial: Getaway-
Players are sent to a separate instance of the map where they have just recently stolen the loot of a Wardens or Feral enemy, who proceeds to chase them as they attempt to stage a grand escape. Players must run from one location on the map to another, avoiding hyper aggressive Lost Prospects as well as a constantly scaling number of enemies that follow you closely as you run. If the player takes any damage or dies, they lose the run and must either quit or start over.
For instance, after my character snatches the essence from a Warden(other Discipline), that Warden will begin to chase me as I attempt to escape. To suffer flee the Warden, I must run from the beginning of the Oration Quarter to Raslan Coliseum, all while limited by stamina in addition to the constant threat from hyper aggressive Lost Prospects. Along the way, for each checkpoint I pass, a new constant enemy will begin to follow the last one added- meaning that if I stop, I'll have another enemy to worry about evading. If I take damage at all or die, I lose.
New Style: Vile Style-
The Vile Style is a dirty fighting style utilizing cheap tactics and an underhanded moveset. Heavily influence by dexterity and endurance. Each move is unlocked every 10 Alignment from Alignment 45-165.
