Trengal Keep Progress
Trengal Keep Progress
I decided to go ahead and do TK. TK needs A LOT of cleanup. Normally I leave cleanup for last, but there's so many mobs in this area that it's really hard to just move anywhere.
I've already started to stack the mobs on top of each other just to get them out of the way a bit. Those are mostly around the outpost near the questgivers. I haven't done much outside of that.
I'm going to proceed with setting up all the quests. That way I'll know what mobs need to be up for quest completion. After that, I'll do cleanup.
Meteoric Studies: Done. (Note: The only reward is a caster wand. Add more options)
Scouting the Keep (Part 1): Done
Scouting the Keep (Part 2): Done
Ebonwings Ebonwords: Done (Note: The only rewards are a mace and a bow. Add more options)

Re: Trengal Keep Progress
Just found this in my logs for this region, so I need to set this up in the chunk script for when you enter/exit the ruins:
As you enter the ruins, your lungs begin to sting with each breath you take.
The air begins to clear as you travel away from the cursed ruins.

Tonight's Work: Not much done.
The Legend of Trengal Keep - Part 4 - Complete. One ring reward. Super suckage.

Re: Trengal Keep Progress
My plans for a Trengal Keep Revamp.
I have always loved TK. This is my favorite dungeon in the whole game, even over APW (Which is hella fun, but for different reasons). But there's some parts of TK that I hate. Getting in and out of the dungeon for turn-ins and new quests got pretty tiresome. Most people cheated with a healer that would stay behind and summon people in (After the caster evac'd them out). Or if you were lucky enough to have a bard, you'd just run the fuck out.
And then after doing all that work, the rewards were a single blue ring. Or a single blue mask. There was no choice. No archetype beneficial selection. Just one for all classes.
Most people just did TK for the cloak, back when it was the first cloak you'd get in game. But after IOD and Blighted Lands, that was no longer the case. So it became harder and harder to find people to do TK unless they just wanted to do a good ol' dungeon crawl or wanted some good XP.
What I'd like to do:
I want to revamp the rewards so there are archetype (Not class) specific rewards. These will be generic enough that they could benefit all classes, but not class specific. So players will get a choice, but it might not be entirely optimum for their build/class. I'm trying to avoid making them OP. They should be rare or UR and match the power of the Hunter's League gear.
I want to make it jewelry, masks, and the cloak. This way the gear does not compete with Hunter's League, but actually fills in the gaps left by Hunter's League. This way TK is worth doing along with Hunter's league, or standalone. I don't want people feeling like they're wasting their time in TK.
Treasure Chest Changes:
TK, like many dungeons, has treasure chests scattered throughout. These chests used to have things like +10 stat potions, sometimes crafting powders, rarely a really shitty sword. The stuff was so pathetic that most people didn't even bother opening them and having precious bag space wasted by whatever was in them.
I want to set these up so that they won't open unless you have a very special dungeon key. Dungeon keys will drop off powerful boss mobs or a very low drop rate from regular trash mobs in the dungeon. The keys will then allow people to open these chests and get a special loot reward. We're thinking about setting this up as a quest-turn in with some gear choice rewards. This also means that your toon can only do it once.
For now I need to finish setting up the quests and then do cleanup. Afterwards I will look into setting up the above.

Right-click The Flame of Karujin on the dais to begin the event. You will need the binding ring in your inventory to do so.
[edit] Phase 1

Karujin Gulgrethor shouts, "Ashiji and Razranu, my sons, you are granted another chance at vengeance against those who have wronged you. Forgiveness is a sign of weakness, if you fail again, it will be your last."
Karujin Gulgrethor will despawn and ASHIJI and RAZRANU will attack in his place. Defeat the twins and Karujin Gulgrethor will respawn at 75% health.
Karujin Gulgrethor shouts, "You've defeated my twin sons, not once, but twice in honorable battle. I may have judged you far too quickly, however, I suspect you will not leave here alive."

Karujin Gulgrethor shouts, "You have proven to be quite the worthy adversary, but you are still no match for the will of Koth Teros."
[edit] Phase 3
Attack Karujin Gulgrethor until Karujin reaches 25% health.
Karujin Gulgrethor shouts, "Nishek, my eldest child. You of all possess all that is necessary to rid me of these foes. Succeed and Koth Teros will reward you, greatly."

Re: Trengal Keep Progress
The Karujin encounter has been set up! It doesn't quite work exactly how I would like it to yet, but it does work. I didn't test it with a group though. TK still needs cleanup though.
Re: Trengal Keep Progress
Hey Jakkal, nice work on TK progress. Im about to head to this area for my next round of testing. I do not notice any "refrain from /bug submissions" in this chunk, but I want to double check that its ready for bug reporting. LMK.
PS: Trengal Keep was one of my favorite dungeons as well, its quite large and offers such an awesome experience. A real masterpiece, especially considering someone built this for a mid level experience. Crazy.

Re: Trengal Keep Progress
It's ready with the exception of whatever might be listed above. The chunk needs cleanup, none of the mobs (that I recall) have been scripted to move or do anything other than drop what needs to be dropped. The Karujin encounter mostly works. It'll be refined more later as we get more options but it works for now.
Re: Trengal Keep Progress
Sounds good.
