Heroboss will contain SEVERAL different bosses.
Yes. (vanilla-server coming up soon for spout-vanilla)
No, if custom-items are coming.

What do you mean by "custom-items"?

Yes. (vanilla-server coming up soon for spout-vanilla)

A vanilla server?! What kind of community are you trying to get for that? I'd love to be a part of that.

Custom-weapons/armors items similar to Diablo.

Vanilla-SPOUT, meaning we'll be rushing a very bare system to test out spout-server before it goes to herocraft.

I'm sure you already know, Kainzo, but as of today's snapshot items can now have attribute modifiers. I'm sure that it can be used to HeroDrop's advantage.

Minecraft 1.6 will bring in Attributes, but I'm afraid as to how long Bukkit will take to bring an actual API for such. Just to reference: http://mojang.com/2013/05/snapshot-13w21a/

We're preparing for a lobby for Herocraft, here's a small glimpse of the in-testing lobby

Personally I think the Hub should be bright and color not grim.

Journal #19:
We're working on adding Runestones to Herocraft for a secondary recall/mark system via professions!

Skill Runestones (Profession based)
Abilities to mark an item with the current location of the caster for later use and trade to others. These runestones will be used in conjunction with Skill Recall, the player will hold the runestone in hand and use /skill recall.

 

[STDs4YouAnd4Me]

Read this entire thread just now. I hadn't realised everything that is in the works. Pretty fucking exciting.

Hope the mem-leak problems gets solved soon so we can move on to the awesome stuff.

We believe we have a good grasp of the issue (or large factor) so we'll be continuing forth!

Will the recall with rune still cost redstone? Also will they share the same cd?

Runestone Update:​

How do I use it?​

All users will now be able to obtain Runestones created by Scribes! Runestones are magical blocks that have been imbued with a location from the scribe. Simply hold a runestone in your hand and use the recall magic (/skill recall) to teleport to that runestone's location.

What types are there?​

(These may change before release)​

Minor Runestone: 5/5 uses​

Major Runestone: 10/10 uses​

Giant Runestone: 25/25 uses​

Ancient Runestone: Unlimited uses​

Can I recharge them?​

Runestones come in various tiers that have different charge amounts. The higher the tier of the runestone, the more charges it has before it needs to be recharged by the Scribe with the /skill rechargerunes ability.

Can I add notes?​

The scribe also has the ability to imbue a custom-note to the runestone to signify the location that has been set for either themselves or the user wanting the runestone created.

How much will they cost?​

Please note that the only method to create and recharge runestones will take costly materials purchased through the DHX or found off other players. If you want to go back to your normal marked location, just simply use recall without holding a runestone and you'll return to your marked location.
