Critical Hits

Post by zizuph » 01 Mar 2023 06:43

Code: Select all

For many years, Genesis has had a critical hit system under the hood.

Back in the day, they used to be quite deadly - getting hit by one
death was basically guaranteed.  This was one approach to keep players
from getting too big, and had been removed a long time ago.

There is still a system in place, with more moderate critical hits,
and it has an effect from time to time.

Instead of it being hidden, I am proud to announce an update that
now shows when critical hits take place.  You will see a message,
such as this:

The dragon recoils in pain as your attack was more powerful
than expected!

Critical hits will be visible to the attacker, the one hit, and
those watching combat in the room as well.

Hopefully this new change will also add excitement around the
imminent race rebalance launch.

This only applies to white hits? Casters do not get critical hits on their damage spells?

The answer on that one is a little tricky.

I had planned to add it to spells. However, I'd also want to add it to damage specials. For the spells, it is pretty easy to add. For the damage specials, it requires me updating every single one of them for it to work. So this will take time and effort. i would want to add both at the same time.

Understood, thanks for clarifying.
