Everyone has ideas for this mod, but they usually do not see the light of day outside of the game and are forgotten by map change. This is why I am starting this thread.

Post whatever idea's you have for master sword continued. Be it weapons, armor, maps, or items, whatever idea's you may have floating around in your head post them here. who knows maybe someone will actually put that idea into use.

I will start off. I was recently staring at the tab menu looking at everyone's title and noticed a lot of fencers. it hit me about 5 seconds. Rapiers. Quick and accurate weapons that would put the elven blades to shame.

The first rapier is a Steel rapier. it would require 20 swordsmanship, Look like your average rapier, and could be acquired from dorfgan after the siege of helena for 10-15k. It would do very good damage (About 75 percent the damage a GiB does), be quick (Same speed as a Sylvian blade), and only have 1 charge. which again does about 75 percent damage the GiB would dish out.

The pro would be Stamina cost, It would be nonexistent compared to a GiB. How ever the catch is it acts like a two handed weapon. You can't use a shield and a rapier. Keeping with fencing tradition you would have the same chance to parry as a two handed weapon (Well mostly for balance concerns).

The description for the Steel rapier: A Light, Sharp, and Deadly rapier made of steel.

The next rapier would be an Elven Rapier. Level 25 swordsmanship required and would possibly be found in lodagond or in sky castle. It is the same thing as a steel rapier. Slightly higher chance to parry and generally looks better. it would be up to the modeler for how it looks. However it would have a second charge.

The second charge (Red charge as I refer to it as) would unleash a flourish, A series of attacks, 5 quick normal attacks that takes half of your stamina, costs 25 mana, and does 5 percent more damage then a normal swipe due to an enchantment on the blade (to justify the mana cost) but the catch is you are not able to attack again for a few seconds and because half your stamina is gone your pretty much stuck there unless you got really little weight in the bar.

The description for the elven rapier: A pristine elven rapier, enchanted to increase it's deadliness.

By the way, Non-fencers could use it as well. The rapier idea just sprung from the fencer title. Mostly to be a good weapon up until Dark sword.

So now that I got that idea out of the way post what ever idea's you guys might have or post comments on the ideas posted.

(I did a search and did not find anything. Sorry if a topic like this already exists)

If you want a real fencing weapon, get a sabre 8)

Not to bash, but we have very little room for new weaponry, as we are approaching our model limit...And, at this point, I'd much rather see new game mechanics, such as complicated, mulitmap quests. Not to mention, people have to make the models(Not that I mind, but of course I'd like to see the stuff I make make it ingame).

I understand. The point of this thread is mainly for the many times were in game, End of map, bored talking about possible additions to the game. Those ideas need a place to go or else they are lost into the void of chat logs that are never released.

Anyway yeah, A quest log would be helpful but I would also like to see a mail delivery system. To attach gold and items to them. Dunno if this is possible but it would be useful.

As do I. Along with a world map and every where I have been. (Clouded parts of the map where I haven't been, markers for safe zones, colored spots for low, medium and hard areas)

Ok this might not be even remotely possible, but Ive been thinking about the model limit thingy. Would it be possible to have a type of "expansion" mod? Another MS:C mod for our half-life folder...Maybe just a near exact copy of the mod (expect some models). Since FN is just about characters I think it would be possible to keep character for both mods.

The only thing is if someone has items from MS:C (original) and bring them to MS:C(expansion) the models won't show or items will get deleted. Maybe we could.....nvm.

Yah, I failed.

I'd like to see zombies be less lame :S Or some harder versions, but I'll live without them (I guess).

I was thinking about this ingame, some barbed bolts would be nice add to the selection of bolts. Bolts "wrapped" with barb wire and would continuously do damage until the target dies. They wouldn't need to do to much damage over time, maybe like 4-6 damage per second, but iron bolts contact damage would be nice. They'd be super rare :eek: But I doubt they'll be added :|

Poison not effect by armor, but I think I mention this one before.

Magical apples? Regens ~5-20 mana per bite, would be great for starter mages :D

I have a lot more ideas but I'll try and not ruin this thread :|

I dreaming about new shield. There is only about 5 in game. I named it - draconic shield - because it will looks like dragon head. It would be have charge like rune shield but this wont be frozen -> fire charge like flamelick dagger. Model(WIP).

Im thinking of an upgrade for an orion bow instead of just 1 hit it will do multi dmg (like in dec patch) but it gets weaker every second its in the air and smaller so the orion doesnt suck so much

Don't know if that's possible, but I like that idea.

You just want to be it uber again so you can whore up more easy Archery levels...

Orion bow is not meant to be like a normal bow, it's incredible when you use it on the right places/situations, learn when those are and you will be happy.

It's actually awesome. You just need to know when to use it.

Mithril armor didn't originate from runescape.
