Make Ghosts useful


Recommended Posts

Currently Ghosts don't drop anything when killed, they spawn from graves on fullmoons now but they are still useless.

I made a mod for ghosts so they are more useful.

They should have a chance to spawn from dug up graves every night, drop some loot (ectoplasm) and that loot should be used to craft some cool items. Also there should be more kinds of ghosts like:

fire ghost - will spread fire around him,

lightning ghost - will cause lightning strikes around him,

ice ghost will freeze you,

angry ghost - moves faster, and deals more dmg,

insane ghost - will drain saniity instead of HP (when attacking player),

hungry ghost - will drain hunger instead of HP (when attacking player),

 

Craftable items from ghosts loot could include:

ghost blade - drains your hunger but has high dmg and gives off small area of light, also has a chance of spawning ghost on hit

spirit torch - if you fuel one of them, all of them will be fueled over large area and smal chance of spawning random ghost, so you don't have to be limited to fire pits and torches in late game

 

Autumn fullmoons are perfect time for ghost invasion event: ghosts will spawn in area around player , number of Ghosts depends on number of dug up graves.

I generally approve of the idea of having ghosts be more useful, but I'm not sold on the whole ectoplasm thing. I'd rather just have them drop nightmare fuel. The spirit torch idea could be transferred to the Night Light, actually. That would make the thing way more interesting. The different types of ghost sound fine, but please, don't have fire ghosts set the environment on fire. We have enough problems with fire in RoG as it is.

They are not nightmares, and there is enough of easy sources of nightmare fuel alredy.

The touchstone is not a nightmare either and it still drops nightmare fuel.

 

Perhaps nightmare fuel plays a role in making ghosts manifest.

 

Do you think there would be a better drop that is already in the game? If so, what?

I suggest new item, orit can be nightmaere fuel if they will remowrk nightlight to work like a spirit torch, and add new craftable items, but the current dark sword uses nightmare fuel so ghost blade would need new item to craft it anyway.

Current ghosts are just in game and thats all I can say about them. Beside the digable items from graves there is no other purpose for them to exist, and you can live without graves items, and get the gears and gems normal way.

This would be really great ! And more during full moon nights.

 

For the rest, I'm not really interested. (for example, the ghost blade is useless, there is enough melee weapons, and I don't like all the different ghosts: only the original one seems enough for me !)  

 

Agree with this:
