"Web" Object on-hit causes "Web" spell effect

We will file suggestions here that did not make the cut. Don't expect detailed responses, but the most common reasons are:

  • implementing the suggestion is impractical, or too much work for the gain
  • the suggestion is thematically against our design philosophy
  • the suggestion is too detailed/low-level
    Keep your suggestions broad and focused on RP benefits, please, not detailed suggestions of how to fix everything.

"Web" Object on-hit causes "Web" spell effect

Post by The Kriv »

So, your path is blocked by a great big spider-web object, and you've got to bash it with your [insert melee weapon here] to destroy it to continue on your way...

I would like to suggest an "on hit" or "on damage" script to fire off an effect similar to a "Web" spell each time you smack it, essentially immobilizing you (on a failed save of course). -which would of course be a real bummer for you if there's a SPIDER on the other side of that Web-object waiting to munch into your leg!

I would ALSO like to suggest, that if you are carrying a TORCH in your OFFHAND when you make the bash on the object, that the script does ~not~ fire and carrying the torch prevents you from getting web-stuck! -in essence you are using the TORCH to help bust it by burning the web pieces as you bash it!

-essentially, you want to bash your way through Spider Territory? fine... but it will be slow-going (Not to mention more DANGEROUS!). -unless you equip your handy-dandy 1gp Torch! -Hooray! useful item! and Cool Effect at the same time!!! :D
