How difficult would it be to implement a MM set like this?

[SirJeal]

I've had a thought about a unique type of MM set, but I don't know how difficult it would be to implement, or even if it would be possible at all.

 

Basically, it started with the thought of how people used to want a Mech Suit powerset. Then I thought, would it be possible to create a MM set where the "minions" are pieces of a greater whole?

 

Imagine something akin to large power armor that is built around the MM with each minion summoned. Each piece would still have its own hp bar and attacks, so your suit could be destroyed piece by piece by mobs, but essentially the "minions" would make up the suit and be attached directly to the MM and would move around directly with the character.

 

You might even be able to make unique power bits for the powers outside the minions. (I like to imagine an "All Out Assault" power that has all of your pieces (minions) unload all of their attacks in a spectacular fashion simultaneously over a targeted AoE or cone, for example.)

 

Anyhow, yes... just my thoughts on a possible unique way of implementing a MM set. Again, I don't know if it would even be possible with the type of Spaghetti code the game has and other limitations from how old it is.
