Item Ideas

[GLB]

Morning everybody (it's 7 o'clock in my country ^^ )

I am seeking for some really good item ideas for my new map (for a capture the flag map. Perhaps this piece of information can be useful) I have already searched with the search fonction thingy but I found no thread about item ideas.

What I am looking for, is not standart item ideas like "+5 on all states", but some really crazy items. Personally I am not creative, therefor I need your help.

thanks

what kind of setting its gonna be? fantasy or present/futuristic?

what kind of setting its gonna be? fantasy or present/futuristic?

Good point, I should have specified that. It is a more a standart warcraft fantasy map. Stuff like skeleton warriors, magic wands, aso...

 

[Trillium]

Shard of Warped Reality - blink with random destination and rather large area of effect. useful to get away from a stronger enemy and possibly allows to get straight to your base... if you are lucky ofc =)

Crown of the Conqueror - adds +6 to all stats (since seem to dislike the '+5' variant) =DDDD

Sword of Holy Slaughter - each kill resurrects an ally (i suppose there will be trash? if not, it may be chance to resurrect an allied hero). active ability - 10% chance to instantly kill target unit.

[GLB]

Well, so far, thanks for all these good item ideas!

But I should have said that I need some good, strong, powerful (but not imbalanced) items. Some of your ideas are to weak, other good and other too imba. However, thanks for posting and helping me!!!
And by the way, you can download an old version of my map in my signature, if you want to. When I have finished all items, I will upload the final version on THW.

Crown of the Conqueror - adds +6 to all stats (since seem to dislike the '+5' variant) =DDDD

hahaha lol not bad!

Sword of Holy Slaughter - each kill resurrects an ally (i suppose there will be trash? if not, it may be chance to resurrect an allied hero). active ability - 10% chance to instantly kill target unit.

that's a bit imba, isn't it?

Dreadshard
Increases Intilligence by 17, and when used, it burns 60 mana of ALL units, including enemy.

I like this idea! I don't have enough mana burning items, so this would be useful in my map!

Dark Crusher
Increases all stats by 4 and damage by 7, also every time the equiper attacks, he will be healed by XX and the enemy will lose XX mana.

Not bad at all!
Here an item I invented my-self.
Orb of Dark Energy
Increases intelligence by 30. Each time the hero kills an enemy unit, energy is stored in the orb. When using the orb, the hero can deal X damage to all enemy units within target area, where X is amount of stored energy * 2.
(don't worry, each orb of dark energy carried by the hero has its own stored energy coutner...)
What do you think about this?

Thanks

 

[Trillium]

Warsong Battle Standart (or whatever faction you want) - increases health by 500. Use: increases your health by 100 and armour by 2 for 30 seconds. (rather long CD - like 5-7 mins) as a special effect creates a fake flag, identical to enemy's on the hero (mainly a distraction tool)

Dem Booterang deals XXX damage to the target and continues to hit X more targets (aka chain lightning). each strike has a 5% chance to make target drop the flag, if target has it. Also, each strike has a 25% chance to stun its target for 1 second.
Dis be an astaundin' wepon, mon.

 

[Rowboat]

Well, now i know what kind of effects you want on your items =)

Im glad you liked them, will update it if i have time.

And i think that idea is pretty cool =P Keep up!

EDIT: Can you show me one of the "Bad" items?

 

[Cyper95]

Dark Staff Of Epic N00B Pwning(must be spelled that way)
gives 100000000 Agility, 100000000 Strength, 100000000 Intellect and 10000000000 extra damage 100000000 armor and a hp reg on 5000 (requirements have less than 1 kill when you buy it costs 0 gold/0 lumber)

okay now to the serious stuff
Feet Of Death(restricted to caster classes(magic classes)) gives a chance to summon a dark elemental which can cast a spell that gives a debuff that slows the enemy by 100% (lasts 1 sec) then it have a spell that is like slow maybe with more slow speed or less slow speed(this willl be used to slow the enemy so they cant reach the flag as fast/the caster)

Staff Of Confusion: restricted to caster classes again this will have 5% chance to teleport out to the place of nowhere(somewhere they can run back) this can only occur every 5 min and gives a -5 int to the wearer

Dagger Of Mortuus: Gives a + 10 to damage, + 5 agility, + 2 Strength and when used increases movement speed by a 100% (only usable by rogue like classes) i have more just to lazy to write em atm

 

[Darkfang]

Golem's Venus
adds 12 strenght and 12 Intelligence also allows u to petrify a zone stunnig the area for 1 second, adds 22% mana regen and 2 hp regen.

 

[GLB]

First of all, thank you all for your great ideas! I just wanted to say, that in my map there are "ranks". Not classes actually. Killing enemy units or heroes, capturing the flag, destroying buildings etc. increase your rank. There are 5 of them: Private, Corporal, Sergeant, Master Sergeant and Major. There some really stron items you can purchase just like that, but they require a minimum rank.

List of all item types in my map:
-normal items
(ex: Magic Wand - +75 mana)
-normal items requiring a certain minum rank
(ex: Necromancer Book - +10 int)
-merged items
(ex: Orb of Dark Engery - ...)
-set-items (set items always require at least the Master Sergeant Rank. They are always composed of thre diffirent items.)
(ex: Paladin's Suit of Armor - +400 lifepoints, +25 damage, Ability: each time your hero is attacked, there is a little 5% chance, that a healing wave jumps out of his wounds, healing him first and then jumping to other targets. Each Paladin's Suit of Armor carried by the hero increases the chance by 3%)

@Dark Fang: I already have some item like that

@Cyper95: Feet Of Death sorry but I already have an item like this in my map. the other items are useless in my map 'cause there are no classes. Though there are good ideas!

Warsong Battle Standart (or whatever faction you want) - increases health by 500. Use: increases your health by 100 and armour by 2 for 30 seconds. (rather long CD - like 5-7 mins) as a special effect creates a fake flag, identical to enemy's on the hero (mainly a distraction tool)

I like this idea, Trillium, though 5 or 7 mins is a bit too long for cooldown time.

Dem Booterang deals XXX damage to the target and continues to hit X more targets (aka chain lightning). each strike has a 5% chance to make target drop the flag, if target has it. Also, each strike has a 25% chance to stun its target for 1 second.
Dis be an astaundin' wepon, mon.

wow... this would be an uber item. When I find some well working damage source system, I think about creating this item.

At the moment, thank you all! There are some items I realy liked and I am looking forward to adding them in my map as you presented them or just bit modified.

 

[Trillium]

I like this idea, Trillium, though 5 or 7 mins is a bit too long for cooldown time.

perhaps. it needs a larger hp/armour bonus in fact - main idea is that enemy tries hard to kill empowered flag carrier only to discover that it wasnt flag carrier... but the ability must have CD long enough so it cannot be spammed

 

[GLB]

I thought about something concerning your item, Trillium: You and your allies cannot pick up the own team's flag, since when picking the flag up, it is automatically move to the flag point. Either I trigger that you can pick up your own team's flag, but then you have to bring it back to base, or I will have to change your item's idea....

 

[Trillium]

i mean it looks like enemy flag... imagine WSG, when suddenly u see TWO enemy flag carriers with TWO your faction's flags... kinda confusing, eh? thats the point

 

[GLB]

ah... now I got it! That's an awesome idea! Great! However, I uploaded my latest version of my map on THW. In the next version I will add your item! I didn't understand like that at all, but the way you say it, it sounds very useful!!!!

thanks man!

 

[Rowboat]

List Updated, look on Normal and Weak items. Hope it helped.

 

[Nelisje85]

Sirens bane/song:
use: taunt

[GLB]

Rowboat, I really love your item ideas, espacilly the hourglass of time and the holy thing that deals damage enemy undead units. I will try to add some of your items in my map. Thanks!!

 

[Rowboat]
