Status and teasers for Silver Tunnel areas and beyond

**S1x** · 03-02-2009, 03:25 PM

All the areas have been made, but the descriptions, monsters, shops, and some NPCs are still missing. I'm slowly filling them in when I can, but it may still be a week or two before I open them depending on how much stuff I need to test.

When opened, there will be 2 branches of areas that can be accessed through the Windy Shore - the Silver Tunnel (which grants access to the Golden Hills) and the Platinum Path. The first route will be the way most people should go. The other route is a shortcut to the new town, but could easily cost you everything you have without even reaching the end.

Is there some type of pre-requiste that needs to be accomplished in order to access these tunnels?

***Cosmonautical*** · 03-14-2009, 10:17 PM

Don't forget to show me when you finally put that pic in the game, and let me know if you need anything else.

Are you just talking about money? I wouldn't have thought you could code it to take all your items.

**Cravdraa** · 03-18-2009, 01:42 AM

Well actually we could, but yeah. It's a toll road with brutal enemies and maybe a puzzle or two. Come unprepaired and it could easily drain your resources and you still might not make it though.

I take it that's why I'm not allowed to have 630,000,000 gold?

Quick question: Will these areas allow for parties?

You know, I'm not sure... Any body want to meet me at the paranoid village to see if toll roads support parties?

I am nobody · 03-27-2009, 06:13 AM

Doesn't look like anyone else is on right now, but I could do it sometime this afternoon.

New areas: Done
Area descriptions: Done
NPC data: About 75% done
New items: A few made
New enemies: About 30% made

You can fight one of the Silver Tunnel monsters in Top Secret Area if you want to. It's probably too easy on its own, so it'll likely have a chance of appearing with a teammate or with itself. Until everything's done, you can't earn experience or money from it yet, so that's why it's level 1 for now.

Also, tell me if you ever see it cast Blast. It's supposed to do it 10% of the time, but against me it seemed to never do it.

By the way, a warning for when you guys venture into the tunnel when complete and first run into these enemies: For balance reasons, it's better to start with them overpowered than underpowered.

**Deku Trii** · 05-04-2009, 11:09 PM

Cool. The monster actually has a significant vulnerability to a certain strategy.

**S1x** · 05-04-2009, 11:37 PM

A lot of them are like that, with a particularly low stat or two, and some pretty high ones. Depending on how your stats are some enemies may give you trouble that other players can breeze through, and vice versa.

**Deku Trii** · 05-05-2009, 05:02 PM

Known Locations
· Top Secret Area
· Top Secret Area 4
· Silver Tunnel (South Branch)
· Silver Tunnel (South Branch 2)
· Silver Tunnel 3

It also just used blast on me. It was only my second fight with it.

I hope you've de-equipped and discarded all of your custom items that were made before the adjustment in Weight...

Joker · 06-16-2009, 01:29 PM

Silver tunnel?

**Cravdraa** · 07-05-2009, 08:38 PM
