Unlocking Enchantments
Darkhax opened this issue ยท 1 comments
In previous versions of the mod, enchantment scrolls were added to help balance things out. Scrolls were a bad way to do this, as they created a lot of spam in mob grinders, and having a mob grinder system effectively removed all balance added by such a system. I am currently looking for suggestions and feedback on a new system that would solve the balance and spam issues.
Current Idea
Enchantments can be unlocked directly at the E+ table. The GUI would have an "Get New Enchantments" button, which would bring you to the unlocking GUI. When a player first opens this unlocking GUI, a random amount of experience points within a configured range will be presented. The player can pay this amount of EXP to unlock a random enchantment. The random amount is unique to each player, and unlocking an enchantment through this GUI will re-roll the cost.
In this system, scrolls would still exist, however they will not be dropped by random mobs. Instead, scrolls would be for debugging, and be available for modpacks and servers to distribute as part of their questing and progression systems. Scrolls could possibly be created through addons, or other mechanics as well.
