Special Traits for The Forge


Recommended Posts

What do you think the "special traits" each character has for The Forge would be? 

A few I think would be neat: 

Wendy: Have Abigail possess a minor enemy for a short time, making them act as a follower and attack other monsters. 

Webber: Able to lay stationary web traps that make enemies who walk into them unable to move for a short time. 

Wickerbottom: Able to spend certain gems to use a spell related to it's use. (Red makes a fire spell, blue makes an ice spell, purple makes a draining spell, Iridescent gem does a pretty animation and nothing else.)

 

Maxwell being able to make different types of servants, or being able to turn into a shadow for a few seconds and then phase out, and while he is a shadow he is invincible. You could have him not be able to attack while he is a shadow, or just leave it as is. Think Reaper's wraith form.

But anyways, I think that the abilities are going to be more toned down than that. In the announcement, he showed a gif of wolfgang being able to slam the ground, and wigfrid dashing with a sword. I don't think we will be seeing special abilities like those.

I just hope they use this as an opportunity to experiment with Maxwell's duelists. It could lead to something that could benefit the base game itself. Cause they're pretty useless otherwise. Well, for their intended purpose anyway.

I can imagine that to be one of the reasons they did this event in the first place. Perhaps if what you're suggesting does make it into the future of the base game, the duelists can work faster than Maxwell's mortal body.

Looking at the special "traits" that were shown in the gif with Wig and Wolf. I wondered, considering those abilities would look odd with other weapons being wielded, and this place probably has some collection of weapons. Are those actually character traits or just abilities linked to the weapons. Or is it that each character can only use one weapon type. Like Wolfgang can only use hammer weapons, Wig can only use sword/spear weapons etc.

Woodie: I would love to see Woodie using Lucy as a sort of magic throwing axe in a way similar to a boomerang but way cooler. In all honesty that would be all I need to see to cause myself to explode in hype over this event.

Willow: I would love to see Willow using some sort of flame thrower based weapon. In fact imagine her using some sort of flaming Gauntlet that allows her to shoot fireballs. I would love to see that (Klei might as well go crazy with her since I know I'm not the only one that wants to see Willow become a valuable asset in at least some area of the game!)

Wes: This is more of a question about what would go on with Wes but will he have various negative effects to make him a challenge character in this mode as well? Or will he have his own abilities to contribute with. As far as ideas go I'm imagining Wes riding a majestic balloon stallion into battle. That on its own would just make my day.

(If I come up with more ideas for other characters I'll probably edit this to add em in)
