Belts

Post by Juniper Onyx »

I know that on the inventory, we have six little boxes that say "Belt".

However, how come there aren't 'Belt's' in the Game?

It seems that Tailor's and smiths could be able to make Leather or Chain Belts which would give a slight bonus to your defense.

Solution: Add an extra box between the "Legs" Box and the "Right Finger" box on the Inventory for "Waist". Then we could add 'Leather Belt, Money Belt, Chain Belt, Extra Heavy Belt (Like Weightlifters), Magic Belts such as "Belt of Strength", etc.

Nothing else would need to change, and it would give one extra space on the 'inventory' to sling something around your waist.

What do you all think?

PS.....We could even add "Whips" to the Game that could be carried on the "Waist" until used in the Hand.

I can think of several such as "Leather Whip", "BullWhip", "Cat-O-Nine-Tails", etc.

They should be a Weapon category by themselves, but for now could be in the 'Concussion" group since they are similar to Morning Stars.

PSPS....Or even 'Money Purses'.....Hmmm?

I'm not too fond of this.

Belts that give a bonus of defence? They're not really..protective.

Money Belt? What's that? I always imagine that the pouches are tied around the belt strap and that's it.

Magic Belts like Belt of Strength? Sounds a bit...odd.

And what if you're not wearing any belts? Should the 6 boxes disappear?

Heh, I'm not sure if this is worth it. Graphics need to be changed (no idea if this has considerable work). Thus it would also need a client update, most likely a server update and some scripts.

I would actually like some small pouches (maybe six to ten 'slots'), which would give added space and be openable anywhere on the inventory. These would naturally have a rather small weight-capacity in comparison to normal bags, but enough for herbs, some food, money, jewels, rings and stuff like that..

Those could actually be rather useful.

I don't think we need real belts either.

i think if a pock picketing skill is ever added, belts could be added as a defense to that.

or possibly also just an item that gives you some more slots
