I'd rather see something new than undead, this idea has been use in video games so many times it's not even funny.

mightyzap · Aug 05, 2006, 04:07 AM // 04:07

hehe also...some whole new types/kinds of things would be nice

or maby, since there is a link with the tyria desert stuff, we find huge army's of our friends "forgotten/enchanted"...sure u know the pain of dunes of despair

and then imagine it as a "standard mob" like afflicted and summits

only problem i see is they kinda reached the maximum to handle with a character lvl limit of 20...in factions some bosses 1 hit u with 30%dp (tarlok evermind, bazzr dustwing...just to name 2) while a same class/lvl boss in tyria hit u maby 150 max.

There could be Mursaat rits, but the Assassin, Paragon, and Dervish are all melee classes. Mursaat are a race of squishies, remember?

The undead lich and his titans destroyed the enitre mursaat race in prophecies anyways :P

And their origin is the Maguuma so....

Undead are annoying. Can't bleed em, can't poison em, and they don't leave usable bodies.

If Undead became a playable race, that'd be something else though...

You can smite them (and set them on fire) quite well though.

The Nightfall trailer presented at the ChinaJoy expo quite clearly showed an Executioner. So it looks like the Undead will make a return indeed!

Undead in tyria is pathatic easy to kill creatures theres not even alot of undead in UW nor FOW. rotscale and lich lords,are only some of the high level undead. its hard to find a high level undead in tyria. i wish the undeads will be at least level 24 in nightfall. i heard of undead lords in the desert in nightfall

Well, in the ingame Cine, there was a HUMONGOUS Abyssal running after some character, so i guess the Shadow Army will be there, rather then the Skeletal army.

BTW, we DO get an UNDEAD hero, or I assume he is a ghost to be precise. There is a hero, who's origin lies in the Mysts and he can change both Primary and Secondary Class....

And didn't the very same character get hit by a Temple Strike? Assassin Abyssal FTW!

I mean, who doesn't want to see a 30 foot giant jump about while performing Death Blossom?

Even if they don't add more undead. It would be nice if they buffed smiting to make it even with other ignoring types of damage.

darrylhaines · Oct 17, 2006, 10:30 AM // 10:30

Regarding the monks smiting, you might as well take an E/Mo with the 1 self heal and a couple of smiting skills with the normal ele skills, mainly because of much better energy pool and management.

Much more effective.

I wouldnt mind if we saw more undead but make em fleshy! my necromancer still has nightmares from the krytan missions with the tons of non-fleshy undead >_<

Yeah, that was really annoying how I had to switch what i did for those few missions from my mm.

Question: Is there any chance that Nightfall might bring about more combat with the undead?Therefore allowing Monks to make a comeback as a combat effective class, not simply as some Healer or precisely dictated build?

OMG, I feel so left out, I mean I'm a monk and I can't do anything but healing :O:O how unfair... Dude /sarcasm, Like monks haven't had enough treats already.

/Agreed. Well, with the second part anyway. My Ranger was salivating over his newly aquired Apply Poison, then there were nothing but undead everywhere!

The Black Curtain. Taking my lvl 20 Rit/Necro through there to cap VA was NOT pathetically easy.

...therefore, no need to wonder what type of mobs you're going to encounter at Elona. They also featured the very same mobs during the Dragon Festival, also attributing it to The Darkness.

Close to the end for the WPE of Nightfall you had to stop the rifts too.

I can easily do Mo/Me or Me/Mo and have tons of more energy management than an ele could.

Ridiculed · Oct 17, 2006, 05:29 PM // 17:29

It'd be a cool twist if there was a twist about the undead in nightfall, such as instead of taking double the smiting damage, they take double shadow damage, and of course it'd have a logical reason that goes along with a lore ect.
