View Full Version : Ultimate mode for DDO

Was trying out a game called Shaiya the other day and it is okay but what interested me was the "ultimate mode". Effectively your characters are more powerful as you level (equivalent of receiving more feats and such) but can permanently die if not raised within 3 minutes. I'd come back to DDO if something similar was implemented.

I'm with Impaqt. This is nothing more than another "make DDO permadeath" thread that we all know and loathe.

I think Impaqt said it well. The OP is calling for a permadeath mod coupled with significant power enhancements. That's fine and good, but it's not DDO. Apparantly it's Shaiya. Different people find different things fun. It sounds like the OP has found what they like in the latter. I too hope they have fun in Shaiya. I'll keep having fun in DDO.

not really, permadeath players also ask for having LESS POWERFUL or less easy-to-get powerful gear
the op is asking... permadeath? no, only if not raised in 3 mins (lol? use to get raise far before than this) and... getting more powerful stuff
seems like he's asking for a new p2w class, simply more powerful but with a handicap: must be raised before 3 mins
trololol
can't be signed or not, becuse that's not a suggestion

Can't we go a weak without a "make massive game-changes and permadeath!" thread?
I was on a shroud run the other day where one of our melees must have really been ****ing Harry off, because he died 6 times in about 3 minutes. After the final time he told the healers to stop raising him because his gear was trashed and he wasn't helping out. I've been in the his place more a few times. The beauty of DDO is that the game is designed to accomodate this sort of thing.
So the OP is not only asking for "niche gameplay mode" he's asking to have the entire rest of the game restructured around a game mechanic that is not only "not DDO" but not even DnD.

You realize we can just raise ourselves in DDO right?

Either this idea is extremely poorly thought out or trolling. It is trivial to get a raise within 3 minutes in DDO, even while soloing. You're essentially asking for a power increase with a drawback that simply doesn't apply in DDO terms and the only time it might apply, during a DC or something like that, you lose your entire character. So I repeat, either you didn't think about it, or you're trolling.

I think the OP just found a feature he liked in a completely different game and decided it should be applied to any game. So, yeah, not thought out at all.
