Yanno, I like to look at those things too, like racial qualities-- but I don't want this to get overly complicated. I mean, I could say *Add 10% damage to a winning roll for strikes by a blah blah blah* but that means people'll probably have to spend half their time checking back on the side-skills and such and arguing over who gets to do what. I'm already afraid the roll system above is going to come out unbalanced and I mean, what happens when an archer gets into the mix? It's not really supposed to come to blows with a guy carrying a bow. On the other hand if his opponent is a slow-mover and not much of a dodger he could easily get seven 'hits' on him from range and it would become infinitely more difficult to get close enough to hit him back.
Might have to leave archers out too and just allow them to train against other classes and the like but not to fight -as archers- during any sort of event. Maybe they'll be Archer-Pugilists or somefin.
I love Ul'dah but I think if we can find a place in Limsa with enough room, that'll do.
Hahaha, yeah. I was worried about it becoming too complicated. I think archers would be fine. I mean, if they ever got in close, then archers would have to find a way to block or attack with their bow/feet/hands/head/whatever. And for the archers opponent I think it would go simply with dodging, blocking, deflecting arrows. Maybe even putting a cap on how many arrows the archer could carry on them might help even it out? It will probably take some kind of trial and error to see what works and what doesn't.Â
Maybe even for large events it can become more complicated with a GM measuring HP bars until there is a knock out or something. I'm just throwing stuff out there because I am a bit excited. I play a bit of a rowdy character who likes bar brawls, but haven't been able to really RP any brawls out because you know..people lol.
