I know for a fact that that the spears, tridents, javelins and lances would have at least some of the attack effects and elements, such as poison, fire, thunder, and needles that shoot out of weapons; just that those attack effects would have to be appropriate in some way to the weapons for the Lancers.

They could have special effects when thrown, like the fire lance could go through enemies and do damage at the sort of rate of the Pink Gel Tree's fires hit you.

Yeah, and perhaps a needle spear and a spark speak could explode into a barrage of needles and sparks respectively, when they reach their range limit.

Yeah. The sparks would be like the spark glove's and the needles would be like that of the needle glove?

For poison, the spear could inflict poison on each enemy that touches the spear when the spear is charged and travelling. For ice and freeze, the effects are applied when the enemies come into contact with the spear.

its okay but maybe more range like 40 Are you referring to the weapons' normal attack range, or their special attack range? As I mentioned earlier, the weapons' normal melee attack range would be around 45, and special attack range at around 90.

30 is the range of most of the Gladiator's weapons (Long Sword has 35 range, and Long Sabel has 40 range). I had the impression that a spear would be longer than that of a sword, so that is where I came to the value of 45 for the spears.

I'm just wondering, will the lancer hold the spear/lance/trident in one hand or two?

I'm just wondering, will the lancer hold the spear/lance/trident in one hand or two? The Lancer would hold the spear/lance/javelin with both hands. The weapons would be held by the Lancer like this... ...or like this... ...rather than being held with both hands in the way the Gladiator wields the swords. As I mentioned before, the Lancer's normal attacks involve thrusting the spear/lance/javelin at enemies, rather than swinging it at enemies.

Cool. The first image is a better example, I believe. Allows plenty of ranged stabstabstab.

Maybe a Volcanic or Spark Lance/Spear could explode into a shower of flames or sparks once it reaches the range threshold?

Post by Rabidbadger on Jul 20, 2010 6:39:21 GMT
Yeah. The flames would look like 'Concentrated Fire', right?

Something like that, yeah. And the flames (and all other special attacks) would get more powerful the more SP spent on DEX...

That works perfectly. Hopefully Lancer can be the next class.

It's nice to see you put a lot of effort into the character construction Would work pretty well if it was implemented.

Thank you for the feedback Over the next weeks or so, I'll look through all the current weapons for the existing classes, and then put the existing weapon ideas for the Lancer, plus any new ones into a table. (After all, I'm sure I could fit in a Rapid/Mach Spear somewhere in the table )

Now that would be cool. Would it have a magical spear effect just for awesomeness, or just be a normal stabstabstab?

Well making it a magical weapon could make it overpowered (or "OP", as many people would say when evaluating new or existing weapons and classes), so I think it would be for normal attacks only.

Cool. Mach spear does sound extremely awesome. I like things with 5-10 AGI...

Well it is something I thought of, that can get more use out of Vampire's and ONIGIRI's cards ;D
I also thought that the Iron Spears, javelins, lances, tridents and poles would have higher AT (and thus, Bonus AT) than the other weapons used by the Lancer, but a slower AGI as a result.

Basically have some hardcore slow but damaging items, and some insanely fast weapons. I'm liking the sound of this.

BEST class idea yet. I love lances, They could also have Halberds. Or however you spell it.

It would look kinda epic. The only problem would be if the epic speed disrupted its attack pattern by launching the ranger into the air half the time.

The only problem would be if the epic speed disrupted its attack pattern by launching the ranger into the air half the time. The Gladiator sometimes jumps in the air while attacking - and the swords all have an AGI of 20-30. I don't see that particular problem with the Boxer equipped with a Mach Punch, Sonic Punch, Mach Knuckle or Sonic Knuckle, which all have 5-10 AGI. Anyway, I'm considering how the magic attacks for most of the level 3 and 4 weapons will work. Please feel free to come up with suggestions if you have any ideas.
