Monster Infighting
Posted: Sunday, 13th April 2014, 16:40
Something I'd personally really like to see; though I suppose it makes most sense only as a god of rage or dodging ability or something instead of a change to the main game is monster infighting. Everything attacks you on sight, BUT if something accidentally hits something else, the something else appears 'enraged' and attacks the thing that hit it. (Like Classic Doom).
So a Centaur Hunter fires an arrow at you; you dodge the arrow, the arrow hits a Troll; the Troll becomes "enraged" (neutral to you; hostile to JUST THAT ONE Centaur Hunter); Troll kills the Centaur Hunter; Troll returns to being hostile towards you.
This would be a major buff to dodging and translocations (obviously). Playing your abilities well could be (almost) as helpful as using Discord. Need to be a god that gives an aura of rage or something similar, rather than a core mechanics change though; because that would be TOO BIG of a change.
