Chest Quest Item Suggestions

SALUTATIONS, FORUMERS

As some of you may know, I have been working on Chest Quest for the past couple of weeks. Everything has been redone, refixed, debugged, gangbanged, and cleaned. Many suggestions from the players were added.

However, there aren't enough items! There are currently 286 items that can be used and equipped. Í͎ͮ̈̈̑̈́̽ ͧR̗̖̠̩ͯͅE͕͖̥̬ͤͅQ̞̹̬ͪͥ̓Ṵ̯͚͖̈́͆͋̆̿͊I̮̘͙͕͚̔̃ͮͩ̽ͅR͖̖͇͈ͦ͂E̙̣ ̘̻̗̣̰͉ͨ̽̋͗͊M̟͇̥͖̺̙̼̓̽̑͐̌̆Ȍ̳̯̖ͭR͙̄ͥ̐̑̐̂È̘̽͒ͥ.̾ͅͅ

Nevertheless, I need players to submit item ideas! They can simply be in text form, or you can go all out and make your own!

Templates are in the spoilers underneath.

▼ITEM PALETTE

HEX COLORS:
#FFFFFF | #000000
#878787 | #383838
#278ADB | #1B5E96
#7F3300 | #351500
#2E9131 | #164416
#FF0000 | #A00000
#FFD800 | #AD9000
#FFF1BF | #CEC39A
#9D0AA8 | #700777

▼ITEM MAKING GUIDELINES

-Items MUST follow the correct color palette.
-Items MUST be in a size of 5x5 pixels, such as the ones below:

-Items must be clear and concise. They should not be messy.
-Keep it PG.

▼ITEM STATS

Of course, you need stats to make an item! The following list will give you the maximum amount of damage you can put on an item, as well as descriptions and rules you should follow.

GENERALLY...
Every stat, which is HP (Health Points), MP (Magic Points), ATK (Attack), and DEF (Defense) have a maximum number of 24. The only way to go beyond is through special abilities that can boost stats, such as the Knight's Shield or the Psychic's Mirror.

Therefore, no item should have a stat exceeding 24. You can have items that decrease stats, but use it only when it is needed.

WHAT BOOSTS WHAT?
-Weapons boost Attack
-Armors boost Defense
-Rings boost almost anything

Keep it lean with extra boosts (stats that don't belong in it's respective category, such as weapons boosting MP.) They shouldn't exceed more than 4.

THING: It is possible to exceed the proposed maximum amounts with DEBUFFS. If an item has an absurdly high attack, you can balance it by removing HP or DEF. HOWEVER...it shouldn't be an excuse to "balance" items. As such, don't use debuffs too much.

▼DAGGERS

Daggers are primarily used by "scout" classes, such as Rogues. They deal moderate damage, and are in between swords and staves.
HIGHEST ATTACK: 16
note: "HIGHEST ATTACK" means an item  has an attack of that number, and the item is usually the most powerful one. This number is useful, so you know when an item suggestion is too overpowered.

▼SWORDS

Swords are among the strongest weapons in the game. They are used by heavy classes, such as Gladiators. They deal high damage, and usually has stats that buff HP or DEF.
HIGHEST ATTACK: 18

▼STAVES

Staves are only a little bit weaker than Daggers. Their highest attacks are both 16, but the growth curve is slower for staves. They are utilized by magic classes, such as the Summoner.
HIGHEST ATTACK: 16

▼PELTS

Pelts are worn by the "scout" classes. They are moderate in defense.
HIGHEST DEF: 10
note: highest def is similar to highest atk, but with def. you know what I mean.

▼CHAINMAIL

Chainmails are worn by the heavy classes. They have very high defense, and usually boost offensive stats, such as ATK or HP.
HIGHEST DEF: 12

▼ROBES

Robes are worn by the magic classes. They lack in defense, but have powerful buffs to make up for it. They usually contain many stat boosts, such as HP, ATK, and MP.
HIGHEST DEF: 8

▼RINGS

Rings are accessories worn by players to boost certain stats. If a ring boosts a single stat, it is usually red (for HP), blue (for MP), brown (for ATK), or grey (for DEF).

Rings usually do not have stats that exceed 8, and the number is even lower for rings that boost multiple stats.

Some rings even carry immunities to certain status effects, which will be explained later on.

▼CONSUMABLES

Consumables are items received from LOOT CHESTS. Most of them affect stats, but some may even give enemies status effects, slow down time, or upgrade an item tier.

Consumables are the most fun out of all, as they don't have any limit and all depend on the player itself.

Some things consumables can do are:
-Freeze time, giving players an extra turn
-Boost attack for X amount of turns
-Give certain status effects for X amount of turns
-Replenish lost health

There is a desperate need for new consumables, so please suggest more of them!

▼SPECIAL ITEMS

Bad news! I already have enough special items! No need to suggest any!

STATUS EFFECTS
There are certain status effects in this game:
STUNNED
Target cannot MOVE or ATTACK

PARALYZED
Target cannot MOVE, but can ATTACK

DAZED
Target cannot ATTACK, but can MOVE

HYPNOTIZED
Target attacks allies

POISONED
Target is dealt X damage over Y turns

BURNING
Target is dealt X damage over Y turns and cannot ATTACK

FROZEN
Target cannot MOVE until they attack once (to break the ice)

It is very useful to have this list at hand. It can even be added to items, making them extra-special!

▼ITEM REFERENCE

Optional read. Refer to items here to plan your suggestions better! This list was created on behalf of AlphaJon, kudos to him. It may also be some sort of checklist so you don't make similar items.

I hope you read or maybe skimmed the above portion. It's a necessity if you want to suggest items.

FINAL NOTES: Suggested items should follow the respective themes in the spoilers (those 3 images).

But, don't use those as a template and simply recolor them. Be creative and make your own.

Re: Chest Quest Item Suggestions

I'm actually interested into helping, but can we have a (partial) list of items to refer to, so we don't end up with duplicates of existing ones or unbalanced items (you may end up with more high-level stuff than needed with not enough lower level stuff).

About the images: Should we submit 5x5 images or 42x42 ones with borders?

Are unique (but not too powerful) properties encouraged or discouraged? Example: an activable ability on a ring that drains 1hp to give 1 or 2defense for the next turn/several turns/the whole fight

Re: Chest Quest Item Suggestions

consumables: (they have drawbacks because it's dumb to not have them )
no art bc im too lazy to open ms paint
potions of various colors: cure X status effect
this is supposed to be a "berserk" effect: high boost to attack (maybe only up to your next attack) for a loss of all DEF for 3 turns (2:1 ratio?)
^^ but with "ghost": Makes it so you can't do anything except move. Things can move on top of you while active and you can go through walls, but you can't end the effect in a wall. (2-4 turns)
(rare) lets you do two actions in one turn

of course, I just added a partial list in the OP for your convenience.

About the images: Should we submit 5x5 images or 42x42 ones with borders?

I'm going to say 42x42, borders or no borders. The sprite itself should be 5 by 5 pixels, but you can resize it to any size to make it more visible.

Are unique (but not too powerful) properties encouraged or discouraged? Example: an activable ability on a ring that drains 1hp [≈ approximately the amount of sunshine falling on a square metre of the Earth's surface on a clear day in March for northern temperate latitudes] to give 1 or 2defense for the next turn/several turns/the whole fight

In Chest Quest, there are tiers. Each item has a tier called ST, which means Special Tier. ST items contain unique properties, as you said, so I guess it would be encouraged? Yeah, it's definitely encouraged.

In regards to your example, it does seem pretty interesting, but in CQ the most valuable stat is defense since as you progress, enemies have greater attack, and you must make up for it with defense.

Thank you for expressing interest in creating an item!

@numbers those are great, thank you

Re: Chest Quest Item Suggestions

for -some reason- these tiers remind me of rotmg

a robe idea: -999 def, +a lot mp
the idea behind this is that you can attack from long range to kill stuff easily, but if you get careless you'll get hit and die because negative def

read the OP

sounds alright, but wouldn't want an item designed for defense give negative stats

Re: Chest Quest Item Suggestions

Here we go for a first attempt at making stuff
Images made using Piskel

▼Manasword

Type: sword
T0: +0 attack
+1 attack per 2 levels
+1 MP, +1 extra attack at levels 1, 5, 11, 17

T20: +14 attack, +4 MP

▼Manathirst

Type: dagger
T0: +0attack
+1 attack every 2 levels
+1 extra attack at levels 1, 7, 13, 17
every 5 levels: -1 MP, every successful 2 attacks drain 1MP to the user(average 0.5MP per attack)(can be smoothed out at levels 10 and 20)

//The weapon's endless hunger for mana drains the energy from
opponents, but also from its user

T20: +14attack, -4MP, +2MP per attack

▼rings of rainbow

Type: ring
ring of positive rainbow:
+1 HP, attack, MP, DEF
Can be fused with the ring of negative rainbow

ring of negative rainbow:
-1 HP, attack, MP, DEF
Doesn't seem that useful as it is, but it sure looks pretty
Can be fused with the ring of positive rainbow

ring of pure rainbow:
obtained by fusing the 2 rainbow rings
+2 HP, attack, MP, DEF

▼potions

type: consumable
potion:
regenerate +1 HP per turn for 3 turns

double potion:
regenerate +1 HP for 6 turns

concentrated potion:
regenerate +2 HP for 3 turns

double concentrated potion:
regenerate +2 HP for 6 turns

potions effects don't stack, and you may only take 1 every 3 turns

The same can be done for mana potions but with MP instead
(I can provide different graphics for the variants if wanted)

▼enhancements

Type: consumable

Sharpener
Usable on swords and daggers
is an Enhancement
adds +1 to attack, independantly from the item tier.
Only one Enhancement can be applied on an item

Ruby cristal
Usable on everything
is an Enhancement
adds +1 to HP, independantly from the item tier.
Only one Enhancement can be applied on an item

Mana cristal
Usable on everything
is an Enhancement
adds +1 to MP, independantly from the item tier.
Only one Enhancement can be applied on an item

Patch of cloth
Usable on robes, pelts and chainmails
is an Enhancement
adds +1 to DEF, independantly from the item tier.
Only one Enhancement can be applied on an item

Small catalyst
Usable on staves

Re: Chest Quest Item Suggestions

Hi, some more items.
@Pingo don't hesitate to give feedback if some things are out of place (or you can directly edit them yourself in your personal database )

▼sponge robe

type: robe (duh)
T1: +1 DEF
+1 DEF every 2 levels
Every 3 levels: +1 extra DEF against special skills (skills that require MP, magic spells or otherwise unique attacks)
T12: +7 DEF, +4 Special DEF
//R.I.P. Spongebob
//The spongy properties of this robe allows it to absorb some of the magic damage

▼lucky pelt

type: pelt(duh, again)
NOTE: r6 means 1 number between 1 and 6, pretty much a 6 sided die
T1: -2DEF + r4 DEF (-1 to +2)
+1 DEF per level except levels 4, 8, 12
Random part increases by 1 every 6 levels
T12: 7DEF + r6 DEF (8 to 13)
DEF is determined randomly at every attack(more randomness)/at the user's every turn(so he can plan accordingly for that turn)

In critical moments, the odds will go in your favour once per battle if necessary
Example: 3HP, someone attacks you for 13, you will get at least 11DEF that turn in order to survive. Following attacks will be completely random, as usual.
(That second part can be omitted)

▼pointy chainmail

type: chainmail
T0: +0 DEF
+1 attack every 6 levels
+1 DEF if no attack gained
Every 6 levels: if damage is taken, the attacker takes 1 damage for that turn. This effect ignores DEF.
T12: +10DEF, +2 attack, +2 Damage reflect
//The spikes on it kinda hurt. Good luck equipping it.
//The best defense is offense!

▼pink star

type: consumable
Use on any equipable item
Effect: ???
//R.I.P Patrick

▼the piercer

type: dagger
T0: +0attack
+1 attack every 2 levels
+1 extra attack at levels 7, 13
at levels 3, 9, 15: successful attacks on an enemy decrease his DEF by 1/2/3 for the remainder of the battle
DEF reduction is applied before damage, can stack (can go below 0?)
T20: +12 attack, -3 enemy DEF per attack (15 effective damage)
//Every attack is one more hole in its armor

EDIT: nevermind the piercer, is actually OP compared to the incremental whip which is a special item. Will maybe tweak it later
EDIT 2: just realised only special items are supposed have unique properties. Guess I'll have to make some more generic items :/ I basically made upgradable special items

Re: Chest Quest Item Suggestions

oh yeah, sorry about this, but i forgot to explain what the tiers were all about

so there's only one tier line, which means there's a weapon, let's say a sword, and this sword goes from T0 to T20

ANY OTHER SWORD belongs in the ST set, so er, your ideas are based entirely on tiering, so really sorry i didn't explain enough

but i took your regeneration potion ideas, along with the manathirst, and i definitely will give you credit for that

also pointy chainmail sounds pretty neat with damage reflect, along with the piercer

thanks for being practically the only person suggesting!

Well, worst case scenario is you can take the T20 version of the items and adapt ot to suit better the Special tier.
You said not needing special stuff which is why I tried making upgradable versions of all the equipment, but now this part is cleared out.
About potions, there's an extra one that could work, but I'm not on my conputer to make the complete template:
It's like the 2 other, but it's purple, and it regens both HP and MP. These could have no concentrated variants, as they already regen 2 stat points per turn as is.

Will try to make more consumables.

To all the interested people: You don't need to make images is you don't want or know how to do them. Someone else can do them for you. Don't let the lack of image prevent you from posting ideas

that's perfectly fine

@alphajon, yeah that's what i've been doing so far, i've already implemented spikey armor and manathirst, thanks for the suggestions!
