Questions about felewyn shard

[Cokecola]

Not long ago I made a felewyn shard in game with the help of my friends, but it come to my notice that people can only have one felewyn shard per character.

Is it possbile that I can make another felewyn shard after I managed to craft one and after that have all the symbols?

Thanks for reading this.

In anycase, currently, no. Once you've received one Felewyn Shard, you'll be disqualified as a recipient for another via Undamael, barring certain extreme circumstances, or via trade.

The idea was that no single player could gather more than one shard, and they'd have to be mixed and matched via trade. Seeing as how that turned out to be impossible, and certain people just couldn't deal, resulting in there being, literally, hundreds more in the world than there should be, we're removing the item entirely. Whether you have one now will not affect your ability to get the replacement item (and said Shard will be automatically replaced), but you'll only be able to get the replacement item, via the quest, once per character, via non-repeatable event.

Wow, I guess I'll have to wait for the new stuff then.

New stuff in 2017.

Meh, here, have some tease:


Or one of those new fangled animated webm's peeps are using these days.

Just so we can now say we've seen some progress in MSC, since the last time we saw progress in MSS.

Thothie 2 of my f-shards are still gone pls help

 

[TheOysterHippopotami]

That looks awesome. Who made that model?

 

[Thothie]

Draegor Redfields donated it from a dead M&B mod, among a few other models... Most of which will sadly be going to replacing Morrowind weapon models, rather than adding new content. (Though it may take me quite a while to be bothered to replace the ones the mobs are using as well.)

This is the best thing I've heard in a long, long time.

Dayumn, look guys, another sword to add to the list! /jk

Swordsmanship actually need some attention soon, and that model looks fairly good imo.

 

[Monika's_BFFEx0256]

If it does become a new sword, can we name it the Lion's Heart? It looks like it's a spikey-maned heart...or something.

 

[Thothie]

The sword will have quite a boost over the original, so it should help.

...Here, have moar tease...

 

[Monika's_BFFEx0256]

Holy shet... that quality... those polygons.. Clearly not intended for MS:C

 

[Thothie]

3470 poly for the viewmodel. 1921 for the world model, thanks to Redfield's amazing skinning.

Even better wid da bloom (dern thing est on firah):

(And yes, that's the 1921 poly world model there.)


Sadly, from the FPS view, not so hot... though I could probably shave maybe 1500 poly off that viewmodel by removing the front you can't see from that angle, but even as is, it is lower poly than a lot of our other viewmodels, and at least I managed to get the hand in there right. ><

 

[Monika's_BFFEx0256]

Hot damn! Time to change my undies. So that'll be replacing the DemonShield I hope :roll:

Yes, sadly... Seems a waste for such a fine model. C'est la vie, I suppose. But at least it recolors easily for more flavors down the road.

 

[Monika's_BFFEx0256]

Well, it LOOKS like the epitome of a demon shield... a green variant that's nearly the same in function as the demon shield, but upped your poison resistance or something of the like would be neat too

sorry for double post but idea struck
I don't think there's any reason to replace the f-shard model, seeing as it's not stolen anyways... why not replace the blood blades (if they're stolen) with this? What you could do (if you can) is cut the model in half, reskin the insides of it... and have it so you can either dual wield, or combine them (alt attack) to make a two handed sword that hits WAY harder, but way slower. Doesn't have to be blood blades, just thought of those because they look stolen from Morrowind as well. I know this may seem like a far fetched idea, but it isn't impossible.

Or better yet, you could even turn this into a spear by elongating the handle a bit more. *shrug*

 

[zeus9860]

He isn't replacing the Fshard model, it was made from scratch by Shuriken. It's not stolen material since it was made by someone, just the concept is well known in the internet.

And that sword is a new holy sword it seems, it's related to the topic at least.

Btw Thothie, i hope you buff that demon shield aswell! Let's face it, it's not really usefull when compared to other shields such as rune shield. Rune shield uses cold effects to slow down enemies, deals no damage, slow down effect is already one hell of a thing, you consider the fire element the most common and strongest in the lore and in this very case it's weak and the special ability isn't one of the best tools in the game for a defensive item, given that the AI is hella hacky.

 

[Thothie]

Having a %10 chance of slowing one creature, who has already hit you, vs. pushing back and setting on fire every creature in your field of view, at will? :\

 

[zeus9860]

Thing is, i'm pretty sure that applies to every hit and i think it ignores undeads, which makes it very usefull for tanking enemies of any kind while healing ourselves. It keeps things balanced in the middle of the chaos.

Demon shield... you can ask around people, they will directly point out that it's useless and less common than the runeshield. The breath itself needs to be used when blocking, consumes mana, seems to act as a lesser version of dragon axe fire breath, by the time people get the shield, they will either discard it's usefullness or simply don't find it appealing and will use rune shield over the demon shield.

It's the same as comparing hoarfrost vs ice staff in the shard attack. One seems to be greater, the other one seems to be lesser.

I would suggest changing the concept behind it to something new, doesn't need to be a big baddie. But something unique, for a shield that spawns in high leve maps.
For example:
Like a passive demon blood effect striking the enemy (and player) when holding the shield in the hand, could be classified as affliction damage (so xp would split with affliction when using the shield). Using block would cause fear on nearby enemies, so they would walk away from us for a small amount of time. If using block against a fire based attack/dot, a pulsating fire aura would unleash from the shield and set enemies on fire while providing fear. No mana use on this thing, it would consume health each time demon blood did impact damage though.

I honestly only wear the shield because nobody else wears it, but I've never used a shield for anything regardless. Might be useful if they gave elemental resistances though.

 

[Thothie]

Hrmm... I'll think about it. The Rune Shield doesn't work well on undead, for they are fairly cold resistant, and thus unlikely to be slowed by cold effects.

why not replace the blood blades (if they're stolen) with this

Thing's a might longer than it looks in that image, due the angle, but it's also quite massive. Bloodblades would need to be a swift sword - more katana'ish. I might have something - though, really, a reskin of one of our regular katana'ish blades would likely do the job. (And only the hilt would split in half well, the rest is joined, thus it'd need a remap of the skin, likely beyond what I can pull.)

 

[Cokecola]

I know I shouldn't be asking this but.....

What would happen to my felewyn shard? Will it get replaced by holy blade?

 

[Thothie]

Fair warning, your Felewyn Shards will likely be replaced by a more generic - though better (and maybe even prettier) - holy sword come next patch. You may, however, be able to repeat the whole quest sequence for another one of said swords, one more time per character. (And I'll probably have to come up with a new dark sword formula involving those...)

Yes...

Also, time for an avatar update.
