Suggestion Please Buff Severite/Azores Treasure drop rate. (Weekly Quest)

For some reason the thread tag is wrong, should be a suggestion.

When Runewaker added Treasure Hunts, they were severely imbalanced. Quests designed as a weekly achievement deemed impossible to clear in the week due to the immense and unrealistic grind by a handful of the quests. Caromund's Treasure? The only RNG you dealt with was road quests at night, at the rates were fine. Dog Star Pages? Also fine, you just had to hunt out Remnant Moon merchants. Barbarossa's treasure is a fairly fun one, wandering into Corzine to spawn the dungeon rare was a fun task. However, the imbalance lied with the last few quests.

Now, with this server and Lundhal's treasure, thanks to how it deals with the PE completion in the territory war zone, it always guarantees the final piece, no matter what. So in a sense, that problem was fixed with adeptgamer's server. A once, very tedious quest, was placed more in line with the reasonable weekly grind that the Babarossa's, Dog Star and Caromunds also follow.

Now, the only two outlier quests are Azores and Severites. Runewaker thought it was an excellent idea to hide Severite Treasure fragments on glowing mobs. Spawning these is a grind in itself, you have a roughly one in 10 chance of spawning one, and they are fairly spread in number across the map. The second RNG wall, is the drop itself, and on NA server, this took me 6 months of on and off grinding to complete. That... doesn't sound like a weekly quest to me. I don't know if the drop rate was a slip up or someone in the RW offices felt horribly devilish that afternoon. What's more, you also need 4 of these Severite pieces in order to complete the quest. That seems... unreasonable. The enemies that need to be killed are Stone Eye Witch Doctors (Puretia), Blood Stone Guards (Alentia), Steelsnarl Fighters (Korhala) and the third Palace of Methus Boss (His drop feels far more reasonable, for whatever reason.)

Azores isn't as severe as Severite, but the quest itself is safeguarded by a very high entry toll so the difficulty for the first stage is needless. The drop needs to be boosted, everything else does not. We're already paying 300 Kindred Insignias, 3000 Adventurer Insignias and 3000 Dragon Shells (Yes those shop shells, it's a good shell sink.) in order to complete it.

Anyway, that's about all. I really hope I can, for once, see the weekly treasure hunt complete, because if I'm not mistaken I don't remember anyone who's ever done all of them consistantly per week.

Suggestion Rejected Soul Gaze System

Hello, I feel that what could really make this version shine, would be introducing the soul gaze system that gamigo currently has in their dragon prophet game version, called savage hunt. This system, gives people a small chance (probably around 10-40% depending on dungeon), of the dungeon boss dropping an item called a soul gaze. This item when used reveals a hidden giant egg that can be collected in the boss room by only the person who used the soul gaze (also if not used, the soul gaze dissapears from inventory upon exiting the dungeon). This egg gives one of usually 5 different cash shop dragons, each dungeon having a different static set of 5 in them except for the first beginning dungeon (consus cave only having 1, brimstone glow). This system made their version very fun to play, giving it a pokemon vibe, collecting all the cool dragon models and working hard to earn one rather than just buying one outright. I feel that implimenting the system on this version, besides excluding maybe a few cash dragons from it, or creating new skins of dragons to sell in cash shop instead, would make the game feel fresh and exciting. It would also elevate this version of Dragons Prophet to the overall superior version in all sense of the word, pricing, gaming experience, community, etc. & it would attract over the majority of the players who went to savage hunt specifically for the new soul gaze system.

This is just a suggestion but I feel it could really make this version extremely popular and bring a larger influx of new players into it. & as you know, happy players are more likely to spend money on the version they enjoy, especially for simple things like cosmetics/costumes or perfecting their favorite dragon.

Commissions, Suggestions and Pro-Tips? :D

Hi everyone!

My name is Misha and I'm a 19-year-old Artist from the UK. I dabble in quite a few different areas, including 3D Model Texture painting, Concept Work, Logos and more! I'm currently part of the development for Beasts of Bermuda, as well as an official tester for a few other games. I currently work as a software tester to pay the bills!~

On the side, I love doing artwork and I'm looking to switch up my prospects a bit to go into full-time concept artwork and other types of art as my career. On the side of all this, I do commissions which are special in that I will work with your budget!

Thank you for checking out this thread, of course. I really appreciate that! :D
If you want to see more examples, I'll be more than happy to directly message you my portfolio, which includes some of my 3D Model Paints!

Now, let me show some quick examples of what I can do! I am always looking for ways to improve, so do say if you see an area I could improve on!

Merchandise Show Off Thread!

I was thinking maybe people would like to show off the shirts they bought or other accessories such as mugs from the shop. :D Sometimes it's hard to judge what the product will look like from the stock images so why not show off your merch here!

I'll start with the FroYo shirt I just got in the mail the other day, I chose a light blue for the shirt color because I thought it went well with the blue accents on the dragon. The print is nice and clear, vibrant, and silky smooth!

I also apologize for the horrible cell phone camera.

Announcement Development Update & Previews

Because we are likely going to see an influx of players in the immediate future I thought it would be a good idea to preview some of what we've been working on behind the scenes.

Concept Art

One of the biggest tasks that we have been working on has been expanding upon the concept art we'll have available when we finish our update. We have been working with @22RII, @Vipera, @Theluji and @heminyx to create new model concepts and some recolors of existing dragon models. These are some of the ones that are finished, but there are many more ideas that we will be working on in the future.

Amhuinn, Protector of Travelers

Called the Protector of Travelers, Amhuinn is known to save travelers who are lost in the woods. The vines and flowers that grow from its body are considered a panacea able to cure all wounds and ailments, making it widely sought after. While Amhuinn is usually docile and gentle when attacked it will retaliate with it's overwhelming strength.

full


Falkor, the Wish Dragon

Extremely wise and kind, Falkor is among the friendliest and most dignified of dragons. Sought after due to it's innate ability to increase luck of those it bonds with, Falkor is also a strong fighter and capable of holding its own against the best.

full


Yuletide Joy, the Festive Snoozyfloof

This emerald green and scarlet dragon is seen only during the Osiran midwinter festivities, assisting Karuna and Randolph in delivering presents. With its warm and joyful smile it spreads happiness and merriment to all it blesses with its gifts and presence. It is often heard at twilight singing endearing songs about the Osira and their bond with dragonkind.

full


Ivory Shadow, the Hidden Watcher

This dragon is deceptively difficult to spot, able to hide practically in plain sight even with it's bright coloring. With highly sensitive senses even when spotted it is extremely difficult to approach without being detected. When it is threatened Ivory Shadow is particularly nasty, protecting himself and any he has bonded with.

full


Arsir, the Scarlet Dragolich

Arsir, the more violent of the Dragolich siblings is permanently stained with the blood of it's victims. Prone to attacking without cause or reason, many travelers have lost their lives at the claws of this dragon. As cruel as it is strong, this dragon is one to be wary of, and best avoided if possible.

Imri, the Azure Dragolich

Imri, the less violent but more intelligent of the Dragolich siblings. Extremely skilled in the use of magic, this dragon's strength lies in it's intelligence, cunning and sheer force of will. While not as cruel as it's sibling, when angered there is no saving the cause of their ire.

Pegasus Model

New model based off of Mythical dragons. Most of these will be available in the wild to be captured, with a few exclusive to the marketplace or dungeons.

full


Faceted Dragons

A new variation of existing models, Faceted dragons will be more ornate dragons studded with gems.

You can see all of the concepts we have posted publicly here: Dragon's Prophet Concept Art

Merchandise

While not exactly dealing with content creation, we have also been working with our illustrators to come up with new merchandise to make available to players who are interested. The majority of merchandise is of existing dragons, while a few will be new color variants of existing models.

Each purchase of $25 or more will also receive 500 Platinum for use in purchasing Diamonds.

You can see the available merchandise here: AdeptGamer's Merchandise | Featuring custom t-shirts, prints, and more

Research

The majority of work that we have done has been research. Researching existing mobs and mechanics, compiling data on how things work internally in the game, and discovering functionality or content that can be adjusted or expanded upon are extremely important to future updates.

To bring forth new concepts, ideas and the overall vision that we have for Dragon's Prophet will greatly rely on the research that is done by @Haterslayer, @Light and @newb. The more that we are able to learn and understand now will greatly affect future updates and the content that we can provide.

New (and old) Content

Now for the information that is most important to most players... Content!

View attachment 663

We have previewed Devouring Void previously, which is the unfinished 108 dungeon. We have recently been testing what needs to be done to get the Dungeon completely ready for release. We have also begun doing play testing to test how hard we should make the dungeon, and how we should pace it. There is a possibility that we may use the dungeon for an event so that people can see it, but it would be made up of placeholders and not completed.

For those that are nostalgic from the original beta of Dragon's Prophet, you probably fondly remember Satuma and the original introductory tutorial. Thanks to the research that has been done and the hardwork by @Light we should be able to bring both back soon after we release our source update.

Both new and old content will not be ready immediately after we release our update as we will need to fix some issues with Devouring Void, and add missing functionality and features that didn't exist back during the beta to Satuma.

Retexturing

Along with making unreleased dragons available, adding the missing Brastens to battlegrounds and expanding mechanics we will also be working on completely re-texturing all dragons. This may not be fully available with the release of our update, but we will continue to offer updates with new retextured dragons while adding new functionality and bug fixes.

In regards to previous timelines, we are a bit behind due to delays on other projects, but we will continue to keep you up to date every so often. Real updates take time, and it's best not to rush just to make a quick buck. Be assured that our primary concern is making sure that Dragon's Prophet survives a long time, and continues to grow and evolve as we develop it.

  • Question
Bug Report Solved Treasure Hunts gets broken when passing 105 lvl

After you bypass 105 lvl, all the treasure hunts gets fcuked up. I can confirm that, as I try to do as many as i can weekly. You either get nothing ot just 2-3 items(usually that white one and powder, sometimes also that marketplace chest). All other items, including special orange chest with currency, gears, gorgoreus diamond etc, are gone. Everything is fine, if you are 105 lvl or lower, but if you're 106-108 lvl, you can't finish them correclty.

Old EU player

I never introduced myself here, so I've decided to do it lol.
I'm Theluji, but for most known as Luji, QQuji or TheQQji :p yeah, I have to admit, I used to whine a lot in past, and I still sometimes do, but that's just how I am.

I was playing on EU since idk November 2013, stopped in middle of 2015, right before Sitheran release. I'm quite experienced player, I discovered many things on my own, and helped for many in past as well, tho I'm not so much of a helpful type anymore due to bad experience with some people :p But I don't bite, if you want to ask me something, ask, If I will feel like to help with, I will help, if I don't, I don't. Simple as that.

I'm not sure if I'm going to seriously play here, I'm first going to wait to see that Savage Hunt thing, if it turns out to be bad, I will spent more time here.

For now I'm focusing on doing concept arts for this server.

Old DP- player here

Hey everyone!!!! I finally found what I have been searching for, since NA shutdown!!!! I played dragon's prophet since closed beta in na, I was one of the people to name one of the servers for the server thus winning me that cool dragon's prophet shit!! its good to be back finally. If you want to catch me in the game my ign is Risengeth!!!

Clean lineart without drawing tablet

Because I have an art block, and can't sit to the stuff that I have to finish, I've decided to fight with it by making simple tutorials. I want to show techniques that should be easily done with or without drawing tablet, because I know that not everyone have one. For the first I've decided to start with lineart - because this part tends to be the most difficult for most people. I'm creating those tutorials by using SAI mostly, but they should be repeatable in other software like Photoshop, Kirita, FireAlpaca, GIMP etc, etc.

So let's start!

First, general information about program I'm using, I've made some points, and will try to explain what do you do with all those stuff.
tut1_by_sinaloae-dbux0fv.png


AD1: Working Area
Well, this is bascially area where our work is going to be made.
AD2: Color Palette
Simple as that, this is where you're choosing your colors.
AD3: Layers + Layers settings
This is where you're creating layers, and what are layers? Well to explain it as simply as I can, layers are bascially parts of artwork. Thanks to the layers, we can easily get rid of or add some parts to the image, without fear of damaging anything. To put it simply, we draw a sketch and when we think that the sketch is good enough, we want to create a lnieart based on it, but if we make a lnieart directly on the sketch layer, we will have a big problem to do the next steps to finish our work. That is why we create a new layer over our sketch, and on this new layer we create our lineart.

AD4: Drawing tools
This is where we choose our tools for certain steps in creating our work. For example for sketching I'm using INK PEN, for linearts, PEN or INK PEN as well, depends on what type of lines I want to have. For shadding I usually use AirBrush, and then finalize it with some Blur. And Eraser to get rid of parts that I don't want :D

AD5: Settings of our tools
Helpful thing, but I will explain this one in laters tutorials

AD6: Other tools
Such as selecting tools, copying colors etc, will also explain more later

AD7: Program options
AD8: Overview of our artwork
AD9:Setting of the work area

I use this rarely, but can be helpful in some situations

So back to the work. We start with selecting our sketch we want to line on. Then we change it's opacity, just as shown on the video below:

Then we are going to create Linework layer, this is 2nd option in layers area, as shown on the video:
Login to view embedded media
Then we choose "Line" tool, and we are creating straight lines to make general shape of the body of our drawing, just as shown on the video:
Login to view embedded media
But oh no! It dosen't look cool, what do I do now? Easy, boy, here's the nice step now, choose tool "Edit" and choose any point on our lines, and simply curve it in way that you want, as shown on the video!

Thunder's Dragon Lineart

I'll start with a massive in your face I am not an artist! :D But art is beautiful and mortal beings such as myself can't help but try to grasp beauty in their hands.. and as such I present my linearts that I am proud of but lack the skill to actually color! This is probably the best artwork of my entire life so far I'm not quite sure if that's a happy or sad thing though.

Thanks to my good friend Theluji I have my favourite lineart colored by her master hands I shall show off here:

It's sexy beautiful aura makes me squeal!

Here is the original lineart -

Dear god Hater help me these are massive omg
Lunar Frost -

A toothless Twilight Ocean (I forgot to draw the teeth lol) -

A weird Midnight Shade -

And that concludes my weird 1am thread posting. Feel free to color any lineart if one catches your fancy, they will most likely stay black and white forever in my hands! :p

We have also activated the Christmas Event, The Silver Dragon Festival. After some serious work on the part of @Light we have fixed the majority of events, and will be activating them from now on.
