The 11th Vampire TE

BannerTitanhexFinished.png

The 11th Vampire was a PvP non-save RPG that first began in RoC. It had a compelling storyline along with fun gameplay elements similar to that of Against the Darkness.

It defaults as a 5v5v1 map with an optional storyline that focuses on the Lieutenant (The solo player). There is a max level of 26, and a handful of quests to be done that provide various rewards, and the goal to eliminate all competition by killing them til their lives reach 0.

The Storyline:

The Fang Squad and The Blood Pack are in a war by night. The town guard unable to stop them has allowed a dangerous procedure to take place. A naive young Lieutenant has taken a non-lethal dose of vampire blood. Will he bring the city salvation or damn it for all eternity? The 11th Vampire has risen.

What's the purpose? How do you win?

You win by PvP. Simply be the first to eliminate all opposition and your clan will reign supreme. Other modes currently include a King of the Hill option, and a blood orb collection mode is next.


Is 5v5v1 the only team choice?

No, not anymore. I've installed a 2v2v2v2v2v1 mode and a 3v3v3v1v1 mode, both of which are compatible with King of the Hill and the Default modes.


What are the quests and how do they work?

Quests are optional and driven by a plot. Some however can be considered merely sidequests or fillers.

They will typically give Vampire Blood to vampires, which is used to purchase valuable artifacts. However they may also yield a few other rewards a vampire may find useful.

For the Lieutenant, you recieve level up scrolls and weapons, but some quests may yield useful items to help you defeat the vampires. Some high level quests can expand the plot, and allow you to side with certain NPCs and alter gameplay.


So how does the gameplay work. I mean, how do you level and get items?

Leveling is done by killing civilians for blood, which allows you to purchase level up scrolls from havens. As you get stronger, you can start killing guards. This will allow you to level up without spending valuable money.

For the Lieutenant, doing quests earns you paychecks and items, all of which allows you to purchase level up scrolls and slay Vampires for EXP and gold.

You can purchase weapons from NPCs, buy transportation that lets you get to and from areas safer and faster, and kill enemies for equipment.

Be smart when playing. You can't go out of the safety of a haven when day breaks, or you will die. You can gain vampire blood by slaying vampires. Vampire Blood can be spent on artifacts. Getting close to key locations on the map, such as the Palace, Vault, or Castle will most certainly get you killed. Avoid this.

As the Lieutenant, it's important to know that taking on any one vampire is pretty easy, but taking on two is far harder. Don't be afraid to run. Dying to a vampire will result in you joining the ranks of their clan. Still, you'll retain all your power from mortality.


So what else? Are there events?

Every few nights a new event will take place that will alter gameplay. The events are increased blood from strong specimens, the release of two Vampire Hunters and their watchers into the city, and a small handful of others that I haven't mentioned such as stronger guards coming out, and new quests made available.


Boss Fights?

Right now there are no real "Boss Fights." You may fight certains NPCs for items, and some NPCs are more important than others, but they hardly qualify as "Boss Fights." However with the right balance, this may change and the key NPCs may put up more of a fight.

At present, a lot of units have A.I. for their spells, including the Homunculus of the Alchemist.


So how does the Player interaction work, like PvP and Cooperation

Well your team will start out on one side of the map in different Havens, and the enemy will start out on the opposite. Rushing into PVP is as easy as creeping over to the other side of the map and searching for enemies, which can be done in a single night.

The Lieutenant can and typically does go right into PvP. He may do one or two first level quests, but he knows he's stronger than any one Vampire. If he obtains NPC Tynan or Cassidy on his side, this goes doubly so.

If you choose to play with your allies, you'll be surprised at how helpful they are. Each hero can hold purpose on a team. With teammates, you can kill guards at lower levels and reap the reward from it. You'll also have a buddy system, assuring you that any one vampire or lieutenant who runs into you will be caught off guard.


What modes are currently available?

Most of these can be combined to set your modes all at once. There's also packaged commands like easy mode, and individual set up like guard strength & time speed.

Modes:
-em, Easy Mode changes the duration of Night to be longer and Day to be shorter. Sets guards to weakest.
-nm, Normal Mode puts daytime and nighttime on default. Increases the strength of guards to rank 3 after mode selection ends.
-hm, Hard Mode puts daytime and nighttime on default. Increases the strength of guards to rank 5 after mode selection ends.
-2v, Fight against one another in a 2v2v2v2v2v1 mode.
-3v, Fight against one another in a 3v3v3v1v1 mode.
-5v, Fight against one another in a 5v5v1 mode.
-hc, Haven Control allows you to play for control of Havens to win.
-rm, Will toggle Rogue on death for the Lieutenant on or off.

Settings:
-ts, sets the time speed based on 3 setting you must type after ts, very slow, slow, and normal.
-gs #, sets the guard rank from a scale of 0 (Easy) to 11 (Insane).
-vlives, sets the life count for Vampires.
-llives, set the life count for the Lieutenant's Vampire.
-slives, set the life count for Vampire Slayers.
-ct ###, Sets how long in seconds you must wait in a Haven before you control it.
-gt ###, Sets the length in minutes the game will last before victory is called.
-en/in, Sets the language mode. Currently English and Francais (French) is supported.

Each hero will play a role in the map, and have their uses and disadvantages. Moreso they will all have 4 spells consiting of 1 ult and 3 regular spells. The formula for spell levels is commonly 5/5/5/3. However some heres may have a variant, such as 5/5/5/2/1 or 3/3/4/5/3.

Actually no, one person controls Tynan and the other person control the Lieutenant. All players are opposed to Tynan, so he's a bit of a Rogue player, but he can amass an army with his skill, "Master Vampire." He's not done perfectly yet, but he's still a fun hero.

Sorry about the debug version, it's been fixed. You may notice nonsensical messages if you have the debug mode version, simply update to remedy this. The version is meant for beta testers.

Didn't get the chance of playing it.

No one enter my game at all >-<

By the way, I have a request.

Could you somehow wrote the current somewhere? In the title, in the description, in the loading screen... somewhere. So people can know what version they're playing (and for instance, know when there's a new one.)

Try hosting it in European (Northrend) server as French-friendly. (-en francais enables French translations).

I usually stamp a date to represent my versions (v1/27/11 makes more sense than v5.06). But sometimes I forget to do that. I'll try to stay more current.

There's always solo play, and getting the set items, but meh. It really is more fun with more people.

Could work. Except that by french friendly they would propably take that they could also speak in French. And although I DO know some French, it is not enough to communicate with actual french people. Meaning I would be stuck in Lt. Although I admit that I like him. Hmm..

So far so good... BUT:

There are some "typos". Bat games give 5 blood, but description says they only give 8. The same happens with LT's salary: It says it gives 1 blood, however it gives 5. (Maybe it is op? Dunno yet, I went private with a friend of mine and did not even tried killing him. Well, although they have the bat game, so I think it is fair.)

Also, some of the NPCs talks do not show completely. Mainly The Archbishop. Also, on the -lucas quest, which is a guy that wants to assassinate the Mayor, Cassidy does not say at ALL where he is. I thought he was on that upper right corner of the map, which appears to be a prison. However, I did not find its warp...

Try to fix those things for the next version.

Edit: Vampires said to me that minigames were rigged. Try to diminish the blood won by beating them. They also said that Slayers are incredibly imba... although that might not need a nerf. Don't know.

Again, PLEASE point out where LT must go. Just running somewhere already takes precious times, but you have to guess it now... I couldn't complete -lucas (ex-slayer and wannabe Mayor Assassin) and the 2nd part of -slayer (I don't know where the graveyard he mentions is... it is not the chapel one.)

Also, 15 blood and 1 vampire blood just to drink it? That's a lot of human blood! One or maybe just 5 blood is enough.

Alright, all your suggestions have been looked over and implemented. The bugs should be fixed. I also fixed a few bugs with the queen quest and Tynan quest, and allowed the Lieutenant access to Salamar's World Ender Quest.

Lucas is a Vampire Slayer in the bottom left of the map along the canyons (It's now highlighted in green when you talk to the General.)

Tynan's warp to his prison is behind the gate where he use to reside.

The graveyard spoken of in the Slayer quest is to the west of him and also contains a haven. It has been clarified and highlighted in the quest.

Vampires can now outrun Slayers, which should be a viable option for escaping them should you encounter one and not be strong enough. They're not as strong as one might think though.

Enjoy. As always I look forward to your reviews, bug-finds, and balance notes.

The Prophet quest?

That also does not have a direction, as far as I remember. Just says there's a powerful being with a servant named Molok and that you must end its life, and that's it.

Well, they kill you if you're in the same lvl as them. I was lvl 6 once and a lvl 3 slayer found me and I killed him. (Well, I HAD the help of the felhound, but still.)

Thank you for hearing me. If I find another issue or think of something nice to add I'll tell you.

Lighthouse guy have a bug... if anyone get close to him once they instantly win a car.

Also, killing Lucas does not give you any reward? Not even experience?

Hey, first of all I'd just like to thank you for remaking this game so it is half decent. I noticed quite a few bugs and some are even game breaking.. I'll just start listing off what I can remember.

-Key to Tynan's prison dropped by Mysterious Woman didn't work
-Gangrel is bugged; Hunt will sometimes cripple his movement, bat form ability switches are messed up
-When the guard set transformation times out, you get sent to the middle of the town region (which happens to be on a wall...so no moving)
-Pureblood's abilities sometimes stop doing damage and his ultimate, Sanctuary of the Haven or w/e can be used within a haven or inside, the ability just doesn't cast but the effect goes off
-The blooddrinker boots appear to lower the movespeed to about 15 after the effect wears off or something, not 100% sure, and it is irreversible
-After you complete the Molok quest from Salamar, he gives out Orbs of Osmosis if you walk up to him over and over

That's all I can remember for now, if I find more, I'll let you know.

The graveyard spoken of in the Slayer quest is to the west of him and also contains a haven. It has been clarified and highlighted in the quest.

Vampires can now outrun Slayers, which should be a viable option for escaping them should you encounter one and not be strong enough. They're not as strong as one might think though.

Enjoy. As always I look forward to your reviews, bug-finds, and balance notes.

this is shit !! we shouldn't be able to escape Slayers !! they are noob hunters xD you gotta be prepared ! When i first played i kept dying on them but then i saved 8g and got them in havens.

If they're the same lvl as you are, they'll propably pwn you, even with a Hellhound.

That's what happened to me at least. And I was using a STR hero. Besides, Hellhound's effectiveness wears off as we get more leveled. At least, with that same STR hero, lvl 6 (as the slayer) and with a hellhound, he couldn't beat me. If you were in lvl 3, with a hellhound, and the slayer was still in lvl 1 (no skills, or just a really weak one/didn't lvl yet) then he is killable. Aside from that... Also, he still is hard to escape from. But now it is possible at least.

i said it's a noob hunter so if u always die on him then ur not well prepared... at the time he find you, you should already be lvl 5 or 6 or just buy 3 potions instead one of level, don't complain about that o_0
it's made on purpose that they can kill u easily if ur not doing good
and he is leveling with time, u should get him before he is lvl 8 kill the watchers

Slayers level up fairly quick, but they also don't appear until someone reaches level 4 and learns a spell at that level. They are level 1 too when they pop up.

It's wise to take them down quickly though. At level 6 they get a rather powerful spell. It's a tricky business, hunting them.

Anyways, I'm working on a lot of the bugs mentioned by Moonglum. I've irradicated most of them but some of them happen rather randomly, and I'm never sure if it's fixed or not. He does seem to have rather intimate knowledge of the map though, which is odd.

Anyways, I've decided I hate how buggy Hunt and Swift as Shadows are, so I'm removing them and adding new spells for their respective heroes.

I'm glad you looked into those bugs, a lot of them actually ended the game for me, since you couldn't really do anything. :p

Also, I've played many many versions of this map, even made a little one of my own..so I know this map pretty well. I'd be willing to help with ideas or bug testing if you need any.

Newest version updated, hopefully with proper fixes. You tell me :)

Lol I can always use more people telling me what bugs they may've uncovered. I just wish some of them weren't so "Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't"

Enjoy! unfortunately I forgot to update the map description and load screen :X I'll get around to it later.

Have you tried the two new skills:

Assassin:
False Assault - Move into the shadows and create images to assault your enemy. So long as you don't get too far away, every second an image will spawn and attack your target.

Each level increases the strength of the images and lower the cooldown.

Gangrel:
Hunt (v2) - Detect the weakened and injured, which increases your thirst for blood. All units nearby with low hitpoints will increase your attack and movespeed, and you'll be able to percieve their location.

Each level increases the % life lost you will detect, the range at which you'll detect, and the duration of shared vision with them.

Really great game, I love it. :thumbs_up:

I did notice one bug though, it has to do with brown.
I've noticed when anyone playing as brown dies on their first life, it says they have -1 lives left and gives them a bat.
I've tested this a few times to make sure and it seems to happen every time.

Ever since I discovered it I've been playing 4v4v1 games. I hope you can fix it soon.

i registered to the hive just for this map. love it and keep going dude.

however i have been experiencing some bugs:

- pureblood bat form sometimes gets stuck INSIDE the human barracks making it impossible to continue playing.
- sometimes (very rarely 2 out of 15 played games) the blood star does no dmg and never disappears. random places


and also im wondering what is the world ender set?
where do i get more of it? all i have is the candle i get from the cultist store.

oh and the haven control mode, is it required to own all havens? im asking because i play with my friend and he's in the starting phase and i dont want the game to be over after 5 - 9 deaths. i tried setting vampire lives to more than 9 but it diddnt work, i would like to know if its a bug or intended.

id really like a mode that lets you play infinite. keep up the good work

I fixed the Bat Form transformation in the latest version, if I'm not mistaken. You should no longer be able to transform indoors.

The Blood Star spell has that issue with the graphic, and I'm not sure why. Hopefully I've fixed it in this latest version by converting Blood Star into a channeled spell. (It's been needing a balance fix like that anyways.)

As for the World Ender set, it's a new set I'm working on along with the Blood Set. Unfortunately I haven't implemented the candles effects yet. Right now the only two pieces in for the World Ender set are the Void Chain and Candle. The rest will be gotten via a series of quests that I have yet to design.

The Blood Set will likely be finished before the World Ender set is. Actually I could really use a terrainer atm to help me get the quests for these sets up.

As for Haven Mode, there's infinite lives. You revive on the next night if you die. It's timed, not exceeding 3 hours.

It's intentional that you cannot set lives to more than -15- but I've been meaning to add an option for infinite play, so I've implemented it. If you type -vlives infinite then you will have 8000 lives to use.

These changes should be reflected in the version I'm about to upload.

SasuhKun is right i was is the city and wanted to get away from a bunch of guards and then the bat flew into the barracks getting stuck.


MR.Tricky was your friend playing as brown? (the brown colour in teams) in that case the bug has been fixed.

As for the infinite lives i say that is great.

It sounds like the bat might have accidentally flew over the Circle of Power which is the entrance to the barracks...therefore getting stuck with no way of getting out, because the bat will be trying to fly through a boundary.
