Title: Ruins Of Azgayle - Rpg Maker XP - Action/Rpg - 12 Classes Announced.
Post by: Drakiyth on August 04, 2008, 06:46:34 AM
Ruins Of Azgayle - Action/RPG - Rpg Maker XP


The project is under heavy thought and I have a list of 12 classes that basically take a lot of the old RoA classes and combined them together.  Crystal Crazy has given
me a lot of insight and experience and I want to go to a bigger and better game in XP.   RoA will be turned into an Action/RPG game much like the diablo series and will feature
12 classes that all have a lot of depth and customization.  The game sprites will be realistic and mature along with a dark look to the whole project.  I am currently in a frantic search for some spriters that would be interested in designing some class sprites for the game.  Or, if they know of a good place to get some mature character models for the game.   I also want to get some good chip-sets that are mature and make the game look like a gothic fantasy game in a world that is in madness and ruin.   Basically, what I wanted to do with RoA in the first place.


Here is the 12 classes so far.    if you have any ideas or concerns with any of them please respond to this and tell me what you would like to see.





THE 12 CLASSES


Crusader :   The Crusader is a protector that goes out of his way to stop all evil and corruption.
                     Wielding a powerful sword and shield, the Crusader smites his foes with the help of
                     angelic beings. Crusaders can use powerful holy magics to aid their allies or harm
                     their enemies. 
               
                     SKILL TABLES:   Holy Sword, Holy Shield, Blessings, Smites


         
Battlemaster:   The Battlemaster is a warrior dedicated to brute force and strong melee weapons.
                           Destroying their enemies with slashing, crushing, and piercing weapons is what
                           they live for.  Battlemasters wear heavy platemail armors as well as have skill
                           in shields if they want to protect themselves from harm.

                            SKILL TABLES:   Slashing Mastery, Crushing Mastery, Piercing Mastery, Shield Mastery



Deathguard:   The Deathguard is a vile and corrupted being that wants to bring nothing but malice and
                         hatred to everything she comes in contact with.  Deathguards use scythe weapons with
                         razor sharp blades or spikes attached to them. They can also call upon the dark lords
                         to bring terrible harm, suffering, and even undead upon their victims.

                         SKILL TABLES:    Scythe Mastery, Dark Blessings, Death Magic, Undead Summoning

                         

Ranger:           The Ranger is a survivor and protector of the wilderness that has become one with
                         nature.  Rangers can cast powerful spells to call storms or aid their allies as well
                         as tame wild beasts and even become a master of archery.  It's very rare to find a
                         Ranger anywhere near a city.

                         SKILL TABLES:    Archery, Storm Magic, Forest Magic, Animal Friendship
                         


Desperado:     The Desperado is very deadly class that normally roams around in the wastes .
                         They pack dual pistols along with high-explosive devices to devastate their enemies
                         by either trapping them or blowing them to bits from afar.  Desperados are also very
                         skilled traders and will get awesome deals on the market.

                         SKILL TABLES:    Dual Pistols, Trapping, Explosives, Bartering



Assassin:        The assassin is a stealthy class that lives and breathes for the thrill of killing their enemies
                          by catching them off guard.  Assassins prefere to use dual daggers coated in deadly
                          poisons so they make sure to kill the enemy if their initial attack does not do the trick.
                          Assassins also use a form of shadow magic to move through the wind like a ghost.

                         SKILL TABLES:     Dual Daggers, Poisoned Blades, Shadow Magic, Evasion



Priest:              The priest is a robed man or woman that uses the power of the gods to guide their path.
                          Priests cast divine spells and also have the power to turn themselves into a powerful
                          angelic being which wields a mighty two handed sword.  They are also skilled with the
                          mace weapon which can be empowered by the gods of war.

                          SKILL TABLES:     War Mace, Retribution Magic, Healing Magic, Angelic Powers
 


Monk:                The monk is a trained martial arts fighter that also uses his inner focus which gives him
                           mind over body healing power.  He is a master of staves and unarmed combat as well
                           as has the power to take enemies down with strong wind attacks.  Monks can heal
                           themselves or aliies while they fight in combat .

                           SKILL TABLES:    Staff Mastery, Unarmed Combat, Focus Magic, Wind Magic



Dark Seer:        The Dark Seer is a dreadful class that uses dark magics and vampirism to steal
                           the essence of their enemies to empower themselves or their allies.  Dark Seers use evil
                           dolls and twisted animations they create from the bodies of the fallen to do their bidding.
                           This class is feared amongst many people and some say they are the caretakers of hell.

                           SKILL TABLES:    Twisted Animations, Death Dolls, Dark Curses, Vampiric Magic



Wizard:              The Wizard is known for having very little health and armor, but they make up for it with
                           spells that can destroy anything in their path.  They are the masters of energy, fire, ice and
                           powerful golem creations.  Wizards are also very skilled with wands and magic staves.

                           SKILL TABLES:     Energy Magic, Fire Magic, Ice Magic, Golem Creations



Mentalist:          The Mentalist is a master of mind control and manipulator of thoughts and time.  They create
                            illusions and manifestations through magical power that aid them in confusing their enemies.
                            Mentalists can directly attack the mind which will cripple their foe so badly they won't be able
                            to move an inch for several seconds. The Mentalist also uses crystals to focus power into.

                            SKILL TABLES:    Mind Control, Illusion Magic, Manifestations, Crystal Focus


Sorcerer:           The Sorcerer is the twisted and corrupted version of the wizard class. They focus on the powers
                            of plague, dark oceanic and shadowfire magics.  They have the power to turn skulls of their
                            enemies into powerful magical focus objects as well as conjure powerful giant vermin to aid them
                            in their dark schemes.  Sorcerers use staves and wands just as good as their counter part.

                            SKILL TABLES:    Plague Magic, Abyssal Magic, Shadowfire Magic, Vermin Summoning

I love you forever and ever for having a kobold race. The only thing that would make it more awesome was if there was a Gnoll or Beholder race.

Looks pretty good. Reminds me alot of morrowind, which was a pretty fun game, by the way. But I do think that you could go with  custom resources instead of RTP. Unless you wanted the RTP to be there. Wouldn't hurt to have fantastic coding, and fantastic graphics too.

It's hard to find good custom graphics for the XP.
Nobody makes them but Gemini.

While I totally agree with you 100% about custom awesomeness in a game and having the best of everything you can get, I wanted to see if I could pull off a masterpiece with the RTP as a challenge.  If you were around when you saw my old game that got screwed up called "Ruins Of Azgayle" you would notice I put hundreds of hours into my own spriting and custom graphics.   Will I use some customs in AL?  It's still on the work board and could happen. 

Thanks for your input!

Ancient Legends will be a roleplaying game with a rich storyline.   You will have your main character which is inspired by the old Ruins Of Azgayle style of classes etc but more of a open-end class creator system where you make anything you want out of all the stuff from RoA class design.

Basically, you could have a Werecat that uses guns, fire magic, and summons undead.   The choices are totally point based.

Your main character will be accompanied by NPC's that develop the storyline.

You should look into learning Ruby, that may make the systems even better, and more customizable.

I play on Firetree Server. Ive got 5 level 70s. what server you play on?

BTW, Keyloggers only send information before a Shutdown Commences, not during Use.
ANY WEBSITE THAT ENDS IN .cn  for example,   www.stuff.cn/etc will have Keyloggers. (well atleast any links from WoW forums)
because .cn is a chinese website = Keylogging losers.
If you feel your system is compromised goto: Download.com and get "Spybot Search and Destroy"
THE BEST FREE ANTI-SPYWARE/Malware/Keylogger program ive EVER used. Ive been using it for over 4 years now.

GL dude :D

After the effort he put into his last game, I doubt he'll make it a default system.

Good luck, Really, XP can lag a lot.  I'd search for a few anti-lag scripts.  Especially if you are going to event the systems.

XP dosent lage any worse then 2K3
As far as the tech side of things goes, youre better off using XP anyways. From Anti-lag scripts, to Mode7, to one click mothafggin Battle systems.

not to mention....from what ive gathered RoA was intended as a  pretty tech intesive game as far as stats go...there are a multitude of scripts out there that will make your programming and devlopment much faster
