Features #
- Prevent uber-immunity suits
- Make suit creation more strategic
- Make PvP/PvM more interesting by reducing reliance on items
- Provide a method of evaluating the general value of a magic item
- Close the gap slightly on 24/7 hunters and people with less time to play (a 24/7 hunter will still have a better suit)
- The system checks for 37 different item properties. Each property found on the item adds to its ES cost. The ES is calculated each time the item is equipped/unequipped so if an item is modified, the ES cost will automatically update.
- Current max number of ES equippable on a char is 30 + 10/level (balancing later)
- Classes have a penalty list of properties which cost double the ES to equip
- All classes can now equip all properties
The ES cost of each property is based on:
- Usefulness of the property
- The class of the equipper
