Teach Me Please - How Does WoW Work?

[moyackx]

Because I think I'm not the only member who HAS NEVER PLAYED WOW, and I want to give a hand on this, I started this thread to bug Craka and the other WOW masters with stupid questions about how this game works. Let's start.

Ok, Craka wants some help with the mage abilities. But I want to do some question about WOW abilities and levels.

• According to this link, the abilities are classified by Levels and Ranks. Levels are like the heroes in WC3, but Ranks?? what is that?? sublevels??
  
• Other thing is that in this page I can see the abilities packed by levels, so in level 1 we have 5 abilities and for level 4 there are other 2 abilities. The abilities change totally when you reach certain level? in level 2 and 3 the abilities can't level??
  
• Other question!!! Intellect.... is equivalent to intelligence in WC3???

Thanks for your answers

About the levels/ranks with the abilities, Level means level required to train/use that ability, and rank is lvl of the ability.

Intellect is the same as Intelligence in WC3, except in WoW, Intellect also increases chance weapon skills while in combat (not required)

Actually, in WoW, every 2 levels a player can go to his/her class trainer and train for new abilities available.

Ok... Now I have other question...

There are abilities which creates food and water, how that could be managed in this version?? like a heal ability??

 

[Craka_J]

FOOD = HP regeneration over time, but only when character is sitting
DRINK = Mana regeneration over time, but only when character is sitting

 

[Freakazoid]

FOOD = HP regeneration over time, but only when character is sitting
DRINK = Mana regeneration over time, but only when character is sitting

And if the player is a warrioir/rogue?

 

[Craka_J]

Mages have the ability to "Conjure Water" and "Conjure Food"
Warriors and Rogues however cannot make food unless if they have cooking skill and it's skilled up. Rogues and Warriors do not get a boost of engergy/rage (Which will be used as 'mana') when they drink water.
Warriors get I believe about 5 rage points per hit they make and take, and it costs rage points to use their abilities.

Rogues have energy, not rage or mana; therefore drinks are completely useless to Rogues, unless if you wish to sell the drink for an extremely low price (about 50 copper up to 4 silver.) Their energy gains by 10 points per second and it obviously costs energy points to use abilities.

Warriors and Rogues have a set number for their maximum rage/energy, which is "100/100". The most rage/energy you can gain is 100 points maximum and there is no special enchant, specialization, or anything else to increase it past 100.
Also, the only thing that can help regain points of rage/energy is "Rage Potion"(restores 100/100 rage instantly... 10 minute cooldown) and "Thistle Tea"(restores 100/100 energy instantly... 10 minute cooldown)

I'm working with the mage abilities. I have ready Frost armor as an a self casting spell. About the frost armor FX, is it the same as WC3??

BTW, all the spells will have the same ranks as in WoW. So fireball, for example, will have 14 levels.

 

[moyackx]

Ohhh yes please, and if there is one FX done, I'll add to the test map.

*Let's bug WILL THE ALMIGHTY for that FX*

 

[Craka_J]

WTA (Will The Almighty) is already working on a handfull of FX for us, I guess it's safe to add him to the team's list on the website.

 

[moyackx]

Let's add him!!

 

[Craka_J]

Agreed. And he has been added to the website.

 

[Nasrudin]

Uhh, right. What happened to my posts? ^^

Edit: sorry, I didn't see that. I'll shutup now.

 

[moyackx]

I moved to other thread, because I consider that news relevant, and it deserves a separate thread.

My apologies if I affected negatively the thread in some way.

 

[Craka_J]

No problem, moyack. Doesn't really matter.
