Chapter 1202: Leap-forward improvement, complex new version!
Fang Yun himself remembered that when he first opened the rune stone system, he just wanted to open a three-hole weapon, but ended up throwing nearly ten million into it, causing him to have a psychological shadow on the hole opening of the equipment.
In fact, equipment openings can only occupy the tip of the iceberg in the gameplay of the entire rune stone system.
To give a general summary, the runestone system can be divided into five categories, namely 'runestone attributes', 'runestone effects', 'runestone acquisition', 'runestone use' and 'runestone combinations'.
The first is the properties of rune stones.
Runestones are simply materials used to enhance the attributes of equipment. They can be divided into level 1, level 2 and level 3 according to their rarity.
In order to help players better distinguish, Wangyi has also made differentiated designs in the shapes of runestones of different levels. Level 1 runestones are triangular, level 2 runestones are square, and level 3 runestones are round.
On this basis, these rune stones are divided into seven colors, namely red, yellow, green, blue, black, white and purple.
The attributes of the runestones corresponding to each color of runestones are different, and the durability of the runestones is also different depending on the level. Level 1 has 150 durability points, level 2 has 200 durability points, and level 3 has 222 durability points.
Yes, rune stones are also durable.
When a player uses a weapon or armor inlaid with runestones to fight, the durability of the runestones on the equipment will be reduced.
When the durability is reduced to 0, these runestones will lose their corresponding functions, and players need to replace them with new runestones and re-set them.
The most irritating thing is that these rune stones embedded in the equipment are not affected by the "never wear" effect. Even if you are stainless steel, if you lose a little durability, I will lose.
Of course, in order to take care of physical sects like the Tang Dynasty Shituo who frequently need to use basic attacks, the sect characteristics of these two sects can take effect on rune stones, which is better than nothing.
This is about the properties of rune stones. On this basis, if players want to truly understand the mechanism of the rune stone system, they need to further understand the specific effects of the rune stones.
Runestones will have different effects after being inlaid according to their level and color.
Take the simplest example, such as the level 2 runestone "Red Cloud Runestone", its specific effect is to increase the character's health by 10 points, and it will take effect immediately after being embedded in the equipment.
10 points of qi and blood may not be eye-catching in the eyes of many players, but you must know that in Fantasy Westward Journey, all increases in qi and blood are affected by physical strengthening and temporary talismans.
In other words, if you have level 120 physical strength, then after inlaying a level 2 red cloud runestone, the increase in your vitality will not be 10 points, but 22 points!
Each piece of equipment can punch up to five holes. Even if each hole only adds 10 points of health, one piece of equipment is worth 50 points of health, and 6 pieces of equipment is worth 300 points of health. After multiplying by 2.2, that is 660.
Some blood!
Maybe for players who are accustomed to the era of huge data expansion in the previous life, 660 points more health is nothing.
But what you need to know is that in this era, if a fully-leveled five-power Tang Dynasty does not click on the temporary talisman to strengthen the body or activate the qi and blood, its blood volume will be 1300, which is already as high as the sky!
But for such a Tang Dynasty with only 1,300 pure blood, if he points out 120 Strengthening points and adds the full 160 qi and blood temporary talisman and the full physical constitution temporary talisman, his health can directly reach around 3,900.
A blood volume of 3900 is already considered a passing blood volume for a battle-level five-power Tang Dynasty in today's fantasy world. One can imagine how anemic the fantasy characters of this period were generally.
And what if at this time, the Five Power Tang Dynasty suddenly gained 660 more health points?
As mentioned above, the character's health growth in the fantasy is affected by physical strength and temporary talismans. Calculated according to the standard of 120-level physical strength and full-level qi, blood, and constitution temporary talismans, after the player has 660 more points of health
, its actual blood volume growth is definitely more than 660 points.
In other words, after filling a full set of Qi and Blood Runestones, a Five Powers Tang Dynasty whose peak Qi and blood in the previous period was only 3,900 will experience a sudden increase in blood, reaching around 5,300 in an instant!
After a five-power Tang Dynasty has a full set of Qi and Blood Runestones, its Qi and Blood can directly compete with Thousand Blades wearing ray stone armor. This kind of improvement can no longer be described as huge, but earth-shaking!
Unfortunately, after Fang Yun read the introduction to the rune stone system launched this time countless times, he found that his beautiful vision did not seem to be that easy to realize.
In the previous life, almost all players' runestones were fixed. No matter what the final combination of runestones was, their entries were all "Qi and Blood +15, Speed +1.5".
Objectively speaking, this entry is indeed extremely practical. Whether it is the increase in blood volume or speed, it is a perfect match for all players.
But the problem is that such useful terms do not appear in this update!
Fortunately, he also understands, because according to the development of the previous life, this new version of rune stones, which is extremely practical and allows all fantasy players to instantly jump into the era of national racing, will not be released until 2015.
Before the new version of Runestones appeared, players could only use the old version of Runestones to combine and match them. The added attributes were like a hundred flowers blooming at best, but a mess at worst.
Fang Yun was very calm about this. After all, the development of anything must be done step by step. If the new version of rune stones were released as soon as this update came up, wouldn't it reduce the possibilities too much and invisibly
Is it killing the precious creativity of players?
In general, although the attributes added by a single runestone are very limited, as long as the player knows how to match them, the improvement to the character can be said to be unprecedented.
The effect of rune stones is basically this, and players who are familiar with fantasy should have guessed how to obtain rune stones.
Yes, the channels for obtaining rune stones are very simple. After updating the new version of the expansion pack, players only need to perform normal tasks, such as becoming a master, and they will have the opportunity to obtain them. At the same time, they can also find gem merchants to purchase them.
However, the runestones obtained through these channels are all level 1 runestones. To obtain level 2 or above runestones, players need to synthesize runestones and synthesize these level 1 runestones into level 2 or 3 runestones.
.
Three level 1 runestones can be synthesized into one level 2 runestone. The synthesis process requires the player to consume a certain amount of energy, and each synthesis has a chance of failure.
After failure, the player will randomly lose a runestone.
This is actually a pitfall.
Since the version has just been updated, and all fantasy players are curious about the runestone system, the price of even a level 1 runestone can easily reach hundreds of thousands.
What, you said you can buy it from a gem dealer?
Sorry, in front of the studio, the hand speed of ordinary players is just a little younger. Once the rune stones are refreshed, you may not be able to grab even a hair.
Three level 1 runestones can be combined into one level 2 runestone, so the cost of just one level 2 runestone is over a million.
But the problem is that combining level 1 with level 2 is not 100% successful. Once it fails, you will immediately lose a level 1 runestone, and the probability is not low.
Therefore, it can be foreseen that after the server is launched, the total cost of synthesizing a level 2 runestone will most likely reach around 2 million, which is not low anymore.
The key is that even if you combine a level 2 runestone, the attributes of this runestone are random.
If you follow a popular property, you may make a small profit, but if you follow a popular property, you will be embarrassed.
Fortunately, although it was a bit cheating when level 1 merged with level 2, when level 2 merged with level 3, Wang Yi was a rare person who turned around.
Combining level 2 runestones with level 3 runestones requires two level 2 runestones and a runestone scroll. Even if the synthesis fails, only the runestone scroll will be lost, and the runestones themselves will not disappear.
The output of rune stone scrolls is very large, whether it is ghost hunting by masters or exchange by gangs and mazes, etc., so its value can be imagined, and it is not much higher at all.
It is a pity that the few consciences of Internet billions were later fed to the dog again with the launch of the new version of rune stones.
The new level 3 runestones introduced later require two old level 3 runestones and a runestone scroll to be synthesized. After the synthesis fails, one old level 3 runestone and runestone scroll will be deducted directly and randomly, which can be said to be a pitfall.
To the extreme.
Let’s not talk about the level 4 runestones ‘Star Runestones’ which are higher up, as they are still very early to be launched.
After understanding the effects of rune stones and how to obtain them, players need to understand the specific use methods of rune stones.
The way to use runestones is very simple. The runestones players obtain at the beginning are initially in an "inactivated" state and need to be activated before they can be embedded in equipment and play a role.
After activation, the runestones will become bound and cannot be traded.
If you want to embed activated runestones into equipment, players need to first obtain the number of luck holes through 'luck luck'.
In Fang Yun's impression, when the expansion pack "Ancient Talisman" in the previous life was first released, the maximum number of openings for equipment was only 4. It was not until the following year in 2010 that NetEase gradually released five holes for weapons and equipment.
But in this life, Wang Yi directly released the five holes, which made Fang Yun feel a little guilty.
No new version of rune stones is released but five holes are directly opened. No matter how you look at this action, it looks more like Wangyi intends to let players explore more combinations of rune stones?
Of course, maybe the billionaire simply wants to make more money.
However, releasing the five holes in advance is certainly a good thing for Fang Yun. After all, all he has left in his dream is money. As long as he can solve the problem with money, it is not a problem in his opinion.
If you want to open holes in equipment, players need to go to Chang'an to find a Taoist priest and spend a certain amount of money and physical strength to open holes.
Equipment of levels 0-30 can only open a maximum of one hole, and the cost of opening a hole is 100,000 fantasy coins and 4 points of stamina.
The number of openings for equipment of level 40-60 is two, the money consumption is doubled to 200,000, and the physical consumption is also reached to 8 points.
At level 70-90, the maximum number of openings in the equipment will reach 3, and the money consumed will be 300,000, and the stamina will be 12 points.
For most players today, 3-hole equipment is already a piece of cake.
After all, equipment has a failure rate when opening holes, and the higher the failure rate, the higher the failure rate. Even if it is only a 3-hole equipment, if you are less lucky, it will cost millions more. Plus the cost of rune stones, a piece of equipment
It would take tens of millions of dollars of guarantee to take shape.
And this is just the consumption of one piece of equipment.
Fantasy characters have a total of six pieces of equipment. A piece of equipment with three holes and full of rune stones costs about 10 million, so six pieces are 60 million. This is definitely a huge expense for ordinary players. If you can get them all,
It has surpassed many players of the same level.
When reaching level 100-120 equipment, the maximum number of openings in the equipment will also reach 4, the money consumed will directly reach 400,000, and the physical consumption will also directly reach 16 points.
Four-hole equipment was already an absolute graduation set during this period in the previous life, and its graduation cost was also very scary.
It has been said before that four-hole equipment requires at least several million to be able to buy it, and if you are not lucky, it will cost 20 to 30 million.
A piece of equipment costs 20 to 30 million just to open the holes, and the guarantee for a piece of equipment costs hundreds of millions. If you include a set of rune stones, the cost is really so high that even a dog would shake his head.
As for the ultimate five-hole equipment, this is no longer an area that ordinary players can access.
In today's era, Fang Yun conservatively estimates that a five-hole piece of equipment will start at a minimum of 20 million. As for the maximum, it's hard to say.
Perhaps for players in the previous life, it was unbelievable that a piece of five-hole equipment cost tens of millions when opened.
But this is the fact, because the fantasy of this period has neither blessing nor guarantee mechanism.
Fang Yun still remembers that in his previous life, there was an old man who sprinted for the five holes when they first came out. As a result, he had to fire the first piece of equipment 97 times before finally firing it.
The cost of opening five holes once is 500,000 fantasy coins and 20 points of stamina. 97 times is nearly 50 million.
If this was placed in the dream of the previous life, I am afraid that blessing would have been triggered a long time ago, but at that time, I could only resist alone.
So it is conceivable that in this era without blessings and guarantees, if a player can get a five-hole suit in a short time, it will not only require strong financial resources, but also incredible luck.
Although Fang Yun is equipped with an all-round auxiliary system, he cannot guarantee that he can easily complete the achievement of five holes in his body before going to the NPC to get the holes drilled in person.
The key point is that having five holes in his body is not the end. After having five holes in his body, he still needs to combine various rune stones in order to unleash the power of the new version of the rune stone system.
Speaking of runestone combination, this should be regarded as the most complex and core gameplay in the entire runestone system.
There are so many combinations of rune stone combinations, such as the splash combination ‘Unintentional Intention’ mentioned before, which is part of the rune stone combination.
The real runestone combinations are divided into 4 levels. The number of runestones required for each level is different. Level 1 combination requires 2 runestones, level 2 combination requires 3 runestones, and so on, until level 4 runestones are reached.
When combined, the number of runestones required has also come to 5.
The power that each level of runestone combination can exert is also different. For example, for the same 'True Essence Body Protection', the effect of the level 1 combination is to 'increase the hidden weapon defense ability by 50 points', while the level 2 combination of True Essence Body Protection
The increased concealed weapon defense ability is 60 points.a>vas>div>Scan the code to download Red Sleeves United with Xiaoxiang to receive benefits for newcomers to read for free for a limited time div>div>div>
