Quote:Lots of people are freaking out about the suggestiong of using a "tree," thinking it'll reduce options. The way I read, the "tree" is ONLY a UI change, not a new mechanic for selecting enhancements. Hell, what we have currently is basically a tree based set up, it just isn't displayed that way.
Yeah, they are freaking out because they see a tree, with a trunk and branches...
But what if it's several trees that jumps to each other ....
That's another reason I didn't go into details of the tree, but gave a general hint of something that could be nice ( something that works like Civ Tech tree, that is you select what you want to reach and let the game points you the requisites. Note the : WORK LIKE, I want something more complex than the Civ Tree with at least 20 trunks ( base enhancement that opens the others up ).
To be honest it's already more or less tree based, but it's not that obvious :
Improved Heal I Life Magic I Charisma I
| | |
Divine Vitality I----\ Improved Turning I Improved Heal II Life Magic II Empower Healing Charisma II
| | | | | |
Prayer of Incredible Life I<----Prayer of Life I \---->Radiant Servant I <-----------------------------------------------------/ |
| | | |
\------------------------------>Radiant Servant II <------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------/
In the above example : Prayer of Life I, Divine Vitality I, Improved Turning I, Improved Heal II, Life Magic I and Charisma I are trunks ( no requirements )
Any you end up with a nice Radiant Servant II tree.
But actually it's not a real enhancement tree...
There's part of a real enhancement tree hidden in it...
Prayer of Life is a requirement for Prayer of Incredible life... that's a tree... from the same trunk.
If it's like that, there's definitely won't be any problems... If it's something else there's going to be lots of rage quits.
