None. AoE ruins the game because you can just AoE an entire training map and ruin it for everyone else. ---

Re: Servers with aoe?
I really think aoe does ruin servers its so stupid i believe if there was some sort of limitations to it rather than just spamming all day long it would make it interesting ^^

Re: Servers with aoe?
EE has AoE spells, but I have a lot of tweaking to do to make them usable without kill-stealing the entire map as well as dividing the spell power by the # of targets attacked. Tricky business...

Re: Servers with aoe?
I could get behind some well done AoE spells, they at least make sense.

Re: Servers with aoe?
I think there are certain types of weapons that deserve and aoe value such as chucks with a random 2 space aoe or an extended spear with a range of 2 on it ect.. I think if its designed right aoe can be used successfully and create a better training experience.
The spell aoe in my opinion is very valuable if utilized correctly, meaning a perfect balance of distance and range per lvl or cost of the spell!
To answer the question if I turn pandemonium on you will see a very nice balance of aoe even certain NPC's have aoe values!

Re: Servers with aoe?
any of the old good d&d type games or rpg games on the old playstation. aoe was done with spell scrolls/spell that basicly was used once"each scroll" was fun. but it was ranged around the target area. Not the player area. it also used lots of tp/magic.
i had aoe wep on a old rev that was ranged within a few tiles but seemed just seemed two much. i agree some weps should have it when others should not.
the spell skill point leveling system needs upgraded. and with aoe,
with each spell cast divid the amount of damage between all the npc numbers
"if you hit 1000 with a spell and cast into 20 sheep it should divid 1000/20 and give out the divided damage to all npc's in the area" not hit all 20 with the 1000 damage.

Re: Servers with aoe?
What i'd like to see (Most probly needs a custom client) Spells have timers so when you cast a AoE spell it takes 40 secs to recharge, Instead of getting Skill Points the Level bar under the spell should be the recharge bar.
