New stat system? - RunUO

wstsdwgrrr · 09-09-2004, 08:13 PM

I was wondering how people feel about the idea of a new stat system for ultima..

One with 6 stats instead of 3 - Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, Charisma, Vitality, and Mind.

Any thoughts?

Too many numbers!

But wouldn't that make it harder/more fun?

VIT - hp
MND - mp, healing spell strength
INT - mp, magic spell damage
CHR - effectiveness of dot spells, summoning strength, cutting through enemy resists
DEX - attack speed, stamina
STR - attack damage

Then stack some new skills and spells on top of those to make them useful?

it would make it just like all the other mmorpgs out there.

OldSkool Ultimas for the longest time had a full set of stats.

Sometime around U5 they realised most of them were useless, and went with the Big Three they've used ever since :-P

Haha guess I'm still thinking in the past then -

Thanks for the input

So what do you guys think would be good in a server to make it unique?
