[RunUO 2.0 RC1] Avatar System

[nerun]

Summary:
Avatar System is a system that create a new type of player: the avatar. Avatars are like Super Sayajins in Drangon Ball: there are levels each one with your own benefits, each level stronger than the lower. This is in beta test and can cause unbalance in game (some players very much stronger than others). The idea is to create new stronger creatures, dungeons etc, just for these players.

Description:
There are 9 levels of Avatars:
- See the attached thumbnail below.

Ring/Bracelet Of Avatars:

- Cast Recovery and Speed 1
- SpellDamage 5
- Lower Mana and Reagent Cost 15%
- Regenerate Hits/Stam/Mana 2
- Defend and Attack Chance 5
- Resistances: 7/5/5/5/5

Artifact Deed:
- a red deed will be placed in the player backpack, with it the player can choose any artifact he/she wants, and it will be blessed.

If a player is AVT1 and buy/use an avatar deed again, he/she will become an AVT2, if he/she was AVT2, will become AVT3 etc.

I will add a custom vendor in the future, just to sell the Avatar Deed. Something like an angel.

Yes, just it, copy/paste. overwrite all files, easy.

New release, with a few changes: i don't know if 10.000.000 gold is a good price, or if deed must consumes 5000 karma from the player, i accept suggestions.

I don't see the purpose of consuming karma as the Avatar historically in Ultima is a pretty good guy. I'd probably recommend consuming heaps of fame as a sacrafice to humility or something.

[nerun]

Thx, i changed the body to an angel, and it gives 2500 fame instead consumes karma, and the Dealer can talk with players about the Avatar Deed. Just say "Hi", or ask about avatar.

had a question...for my shard, i am wanting to change it where you won't have the "avatar" title....possible with the way you have it set?

if not, then i was going to change it where it just said something besides avatar....to fit into a different theme....where all do i need to change to where it would give this new title instead of the avatar, and make sure it all checks ok?

And while im here, what happens when you get skills over 120 since UO is really designed around the idea that 120 is the BEST you can get? I didn't really think about it until one of my staff mentioned it

thank you....great system by the way
