I remember a time, back in aloria, when the vampires on the server (excluding Vrykolakas) was afraid to let people know they're a vamp.

now I see people selling Vampirism in trade chat.

I think it should be possible to cure a vampire by killing it, maybe with a wooden sword, or a smite sword.

Thats a bad idea tbh

Maybe with a less common enchant?..

Doesnt realy matter how, but there needs to be a risk in people finding out your a vampire.[DOUBLEPOST=1354577778][/DOUBLEPOST]

Would you care to explain why its a bad idea? or are you just blindly shooting down ideas

 

[TaxConsumption]

The risk is getting beat with a wooden object instead of a diamond one. I learned that the hard way last night. I am now cur... I mean I'm still a vampire![DOUBLEPOST=1354577823][/DOUBLEPOST]

Too OP.

Well, what if a player likes being a vampire and you're just taking that away from them without their concent. AND it nullifies the use of a good altar to cleanse you of vampirism, you'd just ask a player with the enchantment to kill you.[DOUBLEPOST=1354578472][/DOUBLEPOST]Also, I would never blindly shoot down an idea. Perhaps instead of cleansing someone, you instead temporarily weaken their vampiric powers.

This makse sense. I feel as though vampires are over cocky and do need a good smack in the face every now and then. How about if you kill a vampire with a wooden sword with the "Smite" enchantment on it, there is a 5 % chance of them dieing and losing their vampirism. Does this not seem fair giving all of the perks vampires already have? The fact that vampires should hide their vampirism is also a great help to RP. You almost NEVER see vampires in stories or "Historical" documents that come out and say "I'll turn you humans to vampires, for a price" it just isn't RPish and is extremely annoying.

I agree with Frogmann and Syko, vamps should be less cocky and should actually fear wooden weapons.
When a vamp is killed with a wooden sword they should not be able to immediately have their bloodlust back and have a certain amount of time before they revert back to a human unless they make pilgrimage to an evil altar similar to when you are getting infected with nausea and such.
Also it'd be cool if things like holy water(which Ive never used or created so forgive me for my ignorance) had a large effect on vamps such as blinding them for a period[DOUBLEPOST=1354583397][/DOUBLEPOST]

If you believe its bad idea then explain why, simply disagreeing does not add to the argument/suggestion

That is litterally the entire point of my idea. if they like being a vampire, and want to stay vampire, dont let everyone on the server know your a vampire. every time I see someone selling vampirism on an RP server, part of me dies inside[DOUBLEPOST=1354648790][/DOUBLEPOST]I asked Cayorion to do this last time he re-coded vampires, but im not sure if he did. I suggested that if a vampire is killed by a wooden sword, their blood is reset to zero or 1 when they respawn

Personally I think that vampires need the following stats:

Pros: Bloodlust, Double Jump, Flight, no starve, no breath.

Cons: Weak to wood, 10% chance of losing vampness when hit with holy water, holy water does damage, weak to fire, can't be out in daylight, can't eat.

Here is why I think they need so many cons: Stven1234 used bloodlust + high unarmed to disarm me, then go up onto a roof I can't reach, waited till he turned passive, then stuck the weapon into his backpack (where I couldn't get it even if I killed him). He did this twice, taking 2 high-level diamond swords from me. Since ANY vampire with the same cocky, jerkish attitude could do this with ease, they need far greater limitations and sacrifices. As they are right now they are WAY overpowered and beyond obnoxious an cocky. Hell, it's practically a weakness to be anything but a vampire.

i honestly just started hunting vampires who were open about it, and cures via pvp arent a bad idea. that and i think it would be cool if vamps could turn into bats...no bonus to that except flying. infact they should be weaker in a bat form

 

[EyebrowsJ]

Except turning into bats involves a) client-side involvement or b) spout (no longer supported)

or a vampire only command that would use the mobdisguise plugin to turn you into a bat

Oh... hadn't thought of that.

 

[iReplication]

it might make the server more laggy tough : / the bat thing

I was working on a method to clear vampirism from vampires and balance it by making vampire powers increase over time as they remain an unslain vampire, but this whole idea was moved away due to the more pressing work cayorion had on other plugins.

It will happen at some point, this much I promise, vampires will have to hide again as was always the intention of cayorion from point 1. But we simply lack the coders to do it right now.
