EliteMobs 10.0.0-SNAPSHOT-5 (BETA 1) EliteMobs 10 is a very substantial rewrite of EliteMobs. The old Guild Rank system has been completely replaced with a deep Skill System featuring 70+ unique abilities across 7 weapon categories. Almost every dungeon now scales to player level with three difficulty tiers. Combat math has been rewritten with exponential scaling for more intuitive difficulty curves. I even added gambling. Beware: Testing has been done for lower level content, and the feedback is universally that this is much better than EliteMobs 9. However, things will be actively rebalanced based on feedback, and high level content is unlikely to be balanced as of right now. That being said, it should take a least 6 months of nonstop playing to start really seeing big problems, and I should be patching this on at least a weekly basis, with the full EM 10 release coming out hopefully in just a few weeks of tweaks. Some big systems are half implemented, like the ability to update and download dungeons from in game, and some are still planned to come out later in the lifecycle, like classes and custom item scripting. --- The Skill System The Guild Rank system is gone. In its place is a comprehensive skill system where players level up individual weapon categories by using them in combat. Skill Categories - Swords - 11 skill bonuses - Axes - 7 skill bonuses - Bows - 10 skill bonuses - Crossbows - 8 skill bonuses - Tridents - 10 skill bonuses - Hoes (Scythes) - 11 skill bonuses - Armor - 10 skill bonuses Each category levels independently. Use a sword, gain sword XP. Wear armor while taking hits, gain armor XP. Your Combat Level is calculated from all skill levels combined and displays above your head. Skill Bonuses (70+ Total) As you level each category, you unlock skill bonuses - special abilities that activate during combat. Examples include: - Blade Dance (Swords) - Chance to strike all nearby enemies - Executioner (Axes) - Bonus damage against low-health targets - Multishot (Bows) - Fire additional arrows - Explosive Tip (Crossbows) - Bolts explode on impact - Storm Caller (Tridents) - Summon lightning on hit - Soul Siphon (Hoes) - Drain health from enemies - Last Stand (Armor) - Survive a killing blow once per combat Skill bonuses use different activation mechanics: - Proc skills - Chance-based activation on hit - Cooldown skills - Powerful effects with timers - Stacking skills - Build power over multiple hits - Conditional skills - Activate when specific conditions are met Skill Commands - /em skillcheck <player> - View skill levels - /em skillset <player> <skill> <level> - Set a specific skill - /em skillsetall <player> <level> - Set all skills --- Dynamic Dungeons Every lair, minidungeon, and story mode dungeon has been converted to a Dynamic Dungeon that scales to player level. Converted Content Lairs & Minidungeons: Beast's Sanctuary, Fireworks, Hallosseum, Knight's Castle, Catacombs, Colosseum, Dark Cathedral, Dark Spire, Invasion, North Pole, Airship, Pirate Ship, Sewers, Steamworks, The Ruins, Under Grove, Vampire Manor, Yggdrasil Story Mode: The Bridge, The Cave, The City, The Climb, The Deep Mines, The Mines, The Nether Bell, The Nether Wastes, The Palace, The Quarry, Bone Monastery, Craftenmines Lab, Frost Palace Three Difficulty Tiers Each dungeon offers three difficulties with different level sync values: - Normal (+5 level sync) - Enemies 5 levels below you - Hard (+0 level sync) - Enemies match your level - Mythic (-5 level sync) - Enemies 5 levels above you All difficulties have a 24-hour lockout timer after completion. NPC Teleporters Wormholes have been removed from the Adventurer's Guild. In their place, teleporter NPCs provide quick access to each dungeon with custom models and cleaner navigation. --- Combat Overhaul Exponential Scaling Combat math now uses exponential scaling instead of linear modifiers: - Every +5 levels = exactly 2x HP (works consistently at all level ranges) - Player damage scales exponentially to match - Same-level combat feels identical whether you're level 25 or level 100 Damage Formula Boss damage has been completely rewritten: - Calculated based on player's armor skill level and max health - Pre-compensates for expected gear and skill reductions - Target: ~5 hits to kill at same level, ~2 hits at +10 levels above Armor Skill Health Bonus Players gain +1 heart (2 HP) per Armor skill level above 1, applied via attribute modifiers. Number Formatting Large numbers now display with K/M/B/T suffixes. "1,500,000" becomes "1.5M" in health bars and damage popups. --- Gambling System A complete casino experience has been added to EliteMobs. Games - Blackjack - Standard casino rules with hit, stand, and double down - Coin Flip - Quick 50/50 bets with configurable payouts - Higher/Lower - Card guessing with streak multipliers - Slot Machine - Spinning reels with configurable symbols and jackpots Economy & Debt - BettingMenu - Select bet amounts before each game - GamblingEconomyHandler - Tracks transactions, debt, and house earnings - Gambling Den Owner - NPC displays total house earnings via floating text - Debt Collector - Boss that spawns to hunt players who owe the casino money NPCs - Blackjack Dealer - Card Shark (Higher/Lower) - Coin Flipper - Slot Machine Operator - Gambling Den Owner Configuration GamblingConfig controls bet limits, payout multipliers, debt collector spawn chance/cooldown/timeout, and all game parameters.
