Players Unique Set?

[BluD_LuSt]

I had a sudden idea where a player could collect items and create their own unique set.

Maybe a blacksmith could have this task? Players collect items that they want in a set and take it to a blacksmith who (for a considerable amount of gold) will change it into a set.

The player could choose the name of his/ her set and pick a few bonuses for owning the set. i.e "Legacy Of BluD"

I suppose this would allow players to create infinite sets but maybe, before they can create their set, they have to find or earn a special item (i.e "Set Point") and for the better the set they want to create the more "Set Points" they have to earn/ find.

Would it be possible, while they are in the process of creating their set, to change the colours of some items? I don't know but maybe reverse the colours or something to create more iteresting items? (Not that they aren't interesting to begin with! But just to make them more unique?)

Im beginning to ramble now but 1 final idea...

If players are having their own set why don't they have their own logo or marking forged onto their set items? They could pick this from a list or depending on their mastery...

Just some ideas

Had the same idea yesterday, it would be awesome...

Maybe like one set/character so that you would really think over the stats and create it from scratch (with some basic structures)...

Maybe it should be level-decided, like all characters over lvl 70 get this opportunity...

The Armament of the Swedish Viper sounds nice to me at least...

Thats a great idea.

I can just see my level 65 assassin wearing Laramie's Shadow, which looks not unlike the Bloodfang armour set in WoW only cooler.

Shadow Chest
400 armor
+15% of damage converted to health
+10% of damage taken converted to energy
+500 health
+30% damage
+50% pierce damage
+20% strength
12% chance to dodge attacks


+2 to all skills in rogue mastery
+1 to all skills in warfare mastery

outstanding.

Yeh exactly what i mean!

If we could create our own sets then we could focus their bonuses on the specific masteries that we had chosen.

I hope consider this it would be so cool.

okay, it really sound like a good thing, the problem would be that these items would have to been stuck to the person who made it, soo that you can't trade it with someone else, since otherwise, think of it, everyone that starts to trade sets with each other would be soo overcrowded with stats and things...

One thing I wonder is, would all the items that you add to your set change name aswell, thinking about Persefones favor, and other like that...

And can you take items from other sets? and wouldn't it sorta be an easy way out if you are able to do this with every char?

I would say, that to be able to do this, you would have to get an item dropped only from SP and only on legendary, and you would need one for every item that you want to have in your set, then you would also need the dubble amout for creating the whole set...

That would mean that a 2 piece set would cost 6 of these pieces... and this is something that shouldn't be tradeable aswell, since otherwise someone would make a set to another char... soo what do you all think of this??

And this could be really cool if you could change it soo that when you put on the set, it are able to break some of the regular things, like maybe doublewield 2 staffs, since that would be cool...

yes, I would like this, but I am a tecnical man...

(I did socket every item for my Diablo 2 char, and named every item as it aswell... it took me some deleting old chars, but it was worth it!!^^)

[BluD_LuSt]

Yes well, it could be made that only the character that made the set can own it.

Names could be changed if the player wants it but not nessessarally. So for things like Persefones Favour it would stay the same. But for things like Torment it could become BluD LuSt's Torment.

No you wouldnt be able to take items from other sets.

Well whatever works out best for this point but it would be a bit hard getting to Legendary just to make your own set. Epic maybe?

Im sure this would be awesome if it ever came to anything. But it does require a lot of thought.

[Kieron]

Well, I thing legendary, cuz then it would only be the pure pure players who would get the sets, it would give the players something new to be the first to do...

[SPiRiTX]

Is that just because you are in legendary mode and want it all for yourself? :P

I think this is a good idea Cos I really need some low intelligence + Spirit Skills items

[fep52]

I agree BludLust, have the sets legendary and "soulbound" with a minimum required level of 60 so that its really something to work towards.

I'm salivating at the prospect of creating my own unique set, even though it will probably never happen.

A knife or sword set for my DWing assassin would rock the kasbah too...

[BluD_LuSt]

Yeh but level 60? I think people might get bored of a character before they reach that. I would make it level 50.

Level 50 and Legendary then to please both. Like I said I hope they consider doing this. It would be awesome.

Maybe if it was level 50/60 on Legenday then there wouldn't be as many custom sets flying about and it would be OK to trade them? I would recommend level 60 for this though to prevent too many sets being traded.
