[SVN] Scroll of Transcendence

[SVN] Scroll of Transcendence

Missing feature. something else for players to do, especially if skill gain ever gets "nerfed".

Non-Felucca facets Champ Spawns will now give special rewards for working the spawns

Working the Ilshenar spawns gives Transcendence scrolls but not 105 powerscrolls

Two types of rewards can be obtained while leveling the spawn: Scrolls of Transcendence (SoT) and 105 Powerscrolls (PS).

- http://update.uo.com/design_512.html

The skill on the Scroll of Transcendence is randomly selected. The number of points per scroll will range from 0.1 to 0.5 in Trammel rulesets, and from 0.6 to 1.0 in Felucca. There is no timer on using these scrolls.

The Scroll of Transcendence are totally independent of the boss. Whenever you work the spawn you get a chance at receiving a 105 or a Scroll of Transcendence scroll. In Trammel, you will only get the Scroll of Transcendence, in Felucca you will get one or the other.

- Works by killing creatures at any champ spawn.
- This does not include the replica rewards, as the two systems are completely different, and were only introduced at the same time.
- This does not work with luck.
- Every champ spawn has a chance of dropping a prize into your pack; SoT's, but in fel, you could end up with a PS 105, 50/50 chance.
- Fel champ spawns drop .6 to 1.0 (+skill) SoT's, they can be for any skill.
- Tram spawns drop .1 to .5 (+skill) SoT's.
- Will not raise skill above caps
- Will not raise skill caps
- Possible skills are all skills.
- Rate is about 1 in 200-400, im pretty sure anyway, so people aren't GM-ing all skills whenever they feel like it all the time, even though the gains could be for any skill (begging)

Also needed is the ScrollofTranscendence.cs which is attached to this post.
It goes in \Items\Special\Special Scrolls, and the extension/file-format needs to be changed from .txt to .cs

Code:

Other notes: the attaced ScrollofTranscendence.txt(cs) file was posted/scripted by Callandor2k.
side not to him: Thanks for pointing out the reason certain things were in the file.

The patch is for leveling the spawn, you kill creatures spawned by a champ spawn, you get a chance of gaining a scroll.

Re: Scroll of Transcendence

Does anyone know why 105 Power scrolls are able to be insured and aren't cursed? in terms of gameplay.

They don't exist on demise, so i assume they aren't on any RUNUO official servers, was there a purpose behind making them void of the curse? anyone know?

Re: Scroll of Transcendence

It was to act as a small reward to those who couldn't complete the spawn.

Re: Scroll of Transcendence

105s are cursed same as the others.

Not to offend the coder: I will say this statement bothers me:

and im lazy, changing PS to SOT was a waste of time.

I'm not sure what you meant by it but it kinda scares me.
