World Astronomically Infused Weapons

I have a complete "on paper" idea that I need you guys to build off of.

Basically how this works is every now and then a message will appear saying that an asteroid has landed. Once you see it, it could be anywhere on the map.

Search through Wynn and Gavel until you find the asteroid (A ball of netherrack and magma stone etc glowing with a big explosion) and pick up Asteroid Chunks called (Asteroid Shards)

Enemies will spawn depending on the level of the area where the asteroid landed (1-100)

The Asteroid Shards can be used at a new NPC called (The Astronomer) and for a price of 1 LE per weapon and armor piece, he can infuse your weapons with the asteroid shard and give them boosted elemental powers.

Elemental power boosts can be decided based off the biome of which the asteroid lands. If it landed in the ocean it would boost water damage and defense, sky islands? Thunder. etc.


Again it's an "on paper" idea.

 

Cool idea, but not sure how difficult or easy having the map edit itself every now and then would be. And if the BT has to manually edit the map and resave it every time, I’d rather not stress them out continuously.

A fix for it though would be having a permenant meteor in a high leveled place with mobs that drop shards. Then you can infuse then with your gear via Astronomer which would be in a nearby tent or something. A quest could also be added. Don’t know how great this would fit in with the Wynn lore tho.

 

cant edit the world like that

 

*ding*

the idea isnt bad, but it's completely unachievable

 

It would be a completely seperate object that is spawned with commands, and removed with colmmands automatically.

Like /undo automatically after a period and stop spawning the items

 

Perhaps make it one of those quests where you can reach the area you need only once. There are a total of 5 of these quests, one for each element. The item, once applied to a weapon, can be removed later, in case you get a new weapon. (There's only one of each. They cannot be traded and they cannot be dropped.)

 

Did you ever hear about structure blocks?

By having the meteors crash in ~20 areas, 2 for every 10 levels, and have the surrounding area pre built with and without it, the areas could be switched.
As for the mobs, they could be set to have a despawn timer of the time meteor exists and be in an endless death-spawn new enemy cycle with a ”cooldown enemy” inbetween and have the structure blocks set to clone entities as well.
To prevent people from staying with the mobs beyond the timer the meteors could explode and kill everyone in the way as they despawn. There would be warnings though.

 

that is completely irrelevant to why it can't be done


not to mention that wynn isnt even fully updated to the point where it can use structure blocks

 

Maybe if you go to an observatory you can see where the meteors are

 

I think its possible for the meteors themselves to appear/disappear in real time (this is already done with several objects such as the old Gavel door, it would just last longer) but I don't think its possible for them to spawn mobs only when those meteors spawn. I haven't seen mobs that require specific conditions to spawn.

 

I have! in Tunnel Trouble, the zombies are spawned through script at a set time

 

Ah yeah. I remember now. But not sure if that would be possible or buggy as hell to have a super long script/timer for meteors.

 

Na man we got /spawnmobs

 

the meteor could also essentially be an armor stand entity
the crater could also be an entity. You just have to make it a neutral mob (the yellow ones)
and when you hit it, it bursts into hostile mobs
"this isn't possible" it's possible they did it in Corrupted Betrayal with the slime monster

 

Im more of think of something like an invisible Giant holding a block in his hand or wearing it on his head, to make it look like an asteroid.

 

Ingame events like this would make wynncraft alot more interesting (miss the swarms), especially if there are rewards.

 

yes it's like a survival games supply drop.
the meteor could be an npc when you right click it you claim it sort of like a loot chest.
there's a chance you'll get powders, emeralds, and the shards mentioned in this thread. Also maybe some select weapons

 

JP can do anything

On the actual idea, It could be an awesome way to implement swarms in gavel and the ocean if swarms ever get re-added. It is possible, an armorstand would do it, or even an invisible giant with a custom head.

 

not until he's part of Team Mojang he can't

 

anything that doesn't interfere with the EULA then. You can create everything except for new blocks relatively easily in minecraft.
