New Defence Reduction Hitsplats
« on: April 28, 2019, 03:12:21 pm »
Hello guys!  :)

I have noticed that a vast majority of the players are not so familiar with the effects of some special attacks such as the Bandos godsword (BGS) and the statius warhammer (SWH). The BGS special attack reduces the targets defence level by half of the amount hit. Meanwhile the SWH reduces the targets defence level by 10% whether you deal damage or not. This seems to make some confusion amongst some of the unexperienced players in the game. Therefore, I thought of an idea that could make it both easier and more noticeable to understand what the special attacks of these weapons actually do. Let me demonstrate for you how this could be improved.

This is how the SWH special attack hitsplat currently looks like:

From an unexperienced player view, it could be hard to understand what just happened.


However, with this suggestion I'd like to introduce new hitsplats for special attacks:
This shows the targets defence level being decreased by 10%

This is how the BGS special attack hitsplat currently looks like:


This is how it could be improved:

Here we see the player hitting 9 which means half of that amount is reduced from the targets defence level, that is to say:

I think with a change like this, players will have a better understanding of what special attacks actually do.
Furthermore, this will deliver a new level of detail to the game which I think is cool.

Feel free to share your thoughts and whether you agree or disagree.

That appears to be not quite sufficient as some people can't read properly and that's not a surprise. Perhaps this could be a more dynamic way to make the player realize what the special attack does during the action. Sometimes players doesn't understand how things work and they most likely will ignore it and never take the time to discover what it really serves.

Trust me, I have seen so many players chosing to take an ags as a spec weapon against the stronger bosses that could be more fitting in Pvp.
When I asked them why not a BGS instead, most of them replied with "what bgs does". That clearly shows they don't even know what a bgs spec can do to the target and that it could be really helpful for group bossing. We need to show them the way, even if the description might be enough, it wouldn't be for everyone. Thats what the suggestion is about, when the player will see these hitsplats they will understand better and despite that, it's a nice addition to have for future updates as well.
