Darklight Tower resources set up
Added 2022-01-10 12:15:38 +0000 UTCJust finished setting up the full spread of resource distribution for the entire Faction:
- Selected Actors will regularly receive potions from Zphenx so long as she's in the Faction. Forcing her out or killing her will cripple the Faction's combat effectiveness.
- Actors will use potions at the appropriate times in combat, including buffs / healing / turning invisible to sneak attack or escape.
- There's a chest in the foyer of Darklight Tower which Zphenx uses to store her overstock -- players that make it in there can raid her supplies. The replenishment is purposefully irregular, so it can't simply be farmed day after day.
- Selected Actors also get Frostbite Venom from the spider once it's active and alive. Killing it regularly will keep their venom supply low.
I've done some playtesting and tuning, and things feel very balanced. Low-level characters won't die instantly, but it's also no cakewalk to get goodies from this group. And, gosh darn it, it just feels good to watch various Actors turn invisible and then sneak attack their opponents; having enemies that also use stealth tactics is something Skyrim has desperately needed for a long time.
