      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Totems

10 posts in this topic

I would like that added Totems, which besides being a decorative object for TFC tribes would be something like a Low Tier Beacon. You would any ritual, dance or something for Totem and gain a little Buff, such as speed, regeneration or stem for a short time. It would be nice we can also be a Shaman, which uses a mask and a staff that serve to give Buffs for friends who are close to the Shaman. (If in a TFC teams, the Shaman can only give buffs to those in his team)

This kind of seems like it would be better in the TFC2 forums, relating to magic. Do you have a notion of how this would 'work' in game?  A little more idea of the process?  I'm assuming the player would have to do some work to get these things...

Yeah, this is pretty much magic. It's not much, but way too much for a mod aiming for SOMEWHAT r- believable gameplay.

Just a idea, man.

Darmo was simply asking you a question. He wanted a better idea of how this would work, and so would I. He was not even disagreeing with you, no need to be defensive. I actually think I kind of like this idea.

I agree, it would be great for TFC2.  You would have to gather the materials to craft it first, of course. Perhaps giving boosts to those within it's influence.  Perfect for villages.

Maybe a way to do it would be to create a chiseled block that would have to perfectly match an existing block to the last micro-block. It would take time and patience, and at the same time be very realistic.It would not allow for the creation of blueprints and it would depict several different animal spirits. The order that the totems align with what goes on top of what would change the bonus that the players in the vicinity would receive.

Experience is shared in your tribe. Every tribe have a god. When two tribes follow the same god, they automatically become allies. NPCs Tribes are also a suggestion. The tribes differ by their colors. Flags and shields have a symbol. This symbol represents the god of the tribe, containing their colors as well. The system shields is the same to make armor. When an animal is killed, it will spawn a corpse to be butchered to get meat, bones and leather. You can get an animal skull to make a Shaman's Helmet. It has two types of Shamans, carnivores and herbivores. The helmet of each is made of a different material. Carnivores use skull animals as herbivores use huge wooden masks with feathers or leaves.

This totem thing is pretty neat, even if magic stuff isn't really believable I think this would fit well in TFC. I like the chisel idea but that could make totems to easy to make. If you could incorporate gems in to it, it would make it more difficult to make, at least for higher quality totems.

 

In the mean time you could chisel out a totem and rely on the placebo effect for the buff :)
