New Power set for Blaster: Shuriken Blast


Recommended Posts

Hello Devs

 

Any chance you could make a shuriken blaster AT. Since the powers are already in the game it should be fairly easy to do. Just have to increase the damage of the attacks. I just really want a shuriken blaster. Here is what I came up with. 
 

Level 1- Shuriken Throw - ranged, minor damage (lethal)

 

Level 1 - Poison Shuriken - ranged, moderate damage (lethal), minor (toxic)

 

Level 2 - Trick Shot - ranged, chain moderate damage (lethal)

 

Level 6 - Shuriken Barrage - ranged (cone), moderate damage (lethal)

 

Level 8 - Aim - self +tohit, +damage


Level 12 - Explosive Shuriken - ranged, high damage (fire), minor splash damage (fire dot)

 

Level 18 - Masterful Throw - sniper, extreme damage (lethal), chance for DoT (lethal)

 

Level 26 - Shuriken Dance - PBAoE, moderate DoT (lethal), Foe -Def -Res

 

Level 32 - One Thousand Shurikens - ranged (target AoE), extreme damage (lethal), change for moderate DoT (lethal

Rather than "Shuriken Blast" I would say "Thrown Weapons".

Then you can have a skin for shurikens, a skin for thrown daggers, a skin for thrown javelins / pilums, a skin for thrown playing cards (*cough*), a skin for thrown baseballs, 

 

Well.  Not sure on Javelins, might be too much difference in animation for something above a certain size.

but shurikens/daggers/small axes, for sure.

Aye.  Thrown Weapons.
I need me some Throwing Knives, after all.  And there's a lot of potential fun for people who want to throw Axes too, as @MTeague said.  Playing cards . . . as long as they don't glow with "kinetic energy" or something like that, I think we'd be fine.

 

So, some renaming suggestions:
Throw Blade

Envenomed Blade

Trick Shot
Blade Barrage
Aim
Explosive Edge
Masterful Throw
Cutting Dance
One Thousand Slices

Throwing Blades

You are trained with deadly throwing blades, armed with an assortment of martial weaponry to attack your foes from afar.

MartialAssault ShurikenThrow.png - Shuriken Throw: Taken from Martial Assault. This fits well for the low damage/quick recharge attack.

 

WeaponMastery Shuriken.png - Throwing Dagger: An NPC power used by a multitude of enemies, ideal for a moderate damage ranged attack.

 

MartialAssault TrickShot.png - Trick Shot: Taken directly from Martial Assault. this ability works well as a nice AoE ability.

 

WeaponMastery ExplodingShuriken.png - Shrapnel Shuriken:  A renamed version of Weapon Mastery's Exploding Shuriken. This works as a basic AoE power.

 

FireBlast Aim.png - Aim: Your basic blast set 'Aim' power.

 

MartialAssault MasterfulThrow.png - Masterful Throw: Also taken from Martial Assault. This works perfectly as a snipe ability.

 

MartialAssault SpinningKick.png - Fan of Blades: NPCs like Chance McKnight have a similar ability called 'Shurikens', which is a cone version of the standard Shuriken power. Though I would perhaps give it the Eviscerate/Ripper animation.

 

MartialAssault ExplosiveShuriken.png - Explosive Shuriken: Taken from Martial Assault. this power works well as a low-range/high-damage attack

 

MartialManipulation DragonsTail.png - Blade Storm: The T9 for this set would likely be a mix of projectiles thrown in all directions, likely using the same animation as Typhoon's Edge.

If someone posts a reply quoting me and I don't reply, they may be on ignore.

(It seems I'm involved with so much at this point that I may not be able to easily retrieve access to all the notifications)

Some players know that I have them on ignore and are likely to make posts knowing that is the case.

But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it. There is a group that have banded together to target forum posters they don't like. They think that this behavior is acceptable.

Ignore (in the forums) and /ignore (in-game) are tools to improve your gaming experience. Don't feel bad about using them.

@Lyris came up with the idea for 2 great powersets, Flechettes (for small hurled items (like Shurikens)) & Thrown Weapons (for large hurled items that ricochet & return to you (like Boomerang, Chakram, etc...)).
