Some GK Changes, Battle System Updates
 

Knockback has been removed from the battle system for now. Right now we're looking into re-adding for spells.

A new UI has been added when you die allowing you to choose when you want to resurrect. This will help prevent "laming" and expands our horizon.

The cloak of nocturnal shadows has had its stats updated to include some sustenance.

Interesting.

Now that cones are useless i have an excuse to spam large bullet and nobody can complain.

At your own peril.

There are some bugs with the updates.

First, some monsters absolutely rape now. Go up to zombies and stand by two or three of them, they kill you almost immediately.

Vampiric Guardians also kill almost instantly now, even if just one attacks you.

If Kvasir attacks you once, you're dead.

Lightning (and probably similar spells) is also greatly overpowered now. Since you aren't kicked out of it, you are constantly frozen and then rehit and then frozen again making it very hard to get out of. (edit: seems like this is only a problem with monster-casted lightning, not player-casted)

The death windows also has some bugs. Apparently you can just cast spells normally via hotkeys while dead (before resurrecting). You can still kill stuff and even use manna leaves to heal. Monsters also still try to attack dead players as well, which could potentially make them easy to lame.

Sounds like a blast.

Good finds tho they definately need fixing.

Thanks for the feedback.

• Spells now properly push back again.
• Monsters push back now, but soon it will only be with certain monsters (not all will push back).
• You can no longer cast while you're dead.

What do you mean by "you can still kill stuff" though?

Really good stuff! Loving the updates, keep it up!

I don't really play GK but any reason for the removal of pushback? It's typically a very good addition to any game and avoids frustrating situations where you can get locked in damage loops(like Chris posted).

Basically on GK, fighting takes a while to kill someone. Push back made it even longer. This just makes it a bit easier to PK each other and not have to deal with the annoyance of being frozen for 0.25-0.5 seconds to be pushed away.

This is a "trial" change, so if it is not well liked can be reverted back to having the pushback system.

Can we make zombies weak to fire so I can level my magic? <- ctrl+n update

Since dead people are now stuck on the ground;
Can we give the prayer "Restoration" the ability to resurrect them with like
10% HP
10% SP
10% Grace
25% Food Bar

Could make the casting time a lot longer to

I don't like the way some monsters attack, i think it leads to these complications concerning damage loops.

Did this make it live? it's not on mine
