On Ackadia they had a specialized attack for Stealthers

You required Stealth, Hiding and Anatomy spec'd - Then you go into stealth, sneak up behind an enemy and type .backstab and it would attack them for 2-3* damage if the hit was successful.
It was one of my favorite spec's to play and I'd love to see it implemented.
The other item is the perk Skulk

It would basically give you a stealth bonus and tell you over your head what your stealth level was (A+, B, C, F, etc.). I'm not so much asking for the perk, I'd like to see the overhead message tellign you how far you can go in stealth mode

I could probably write the code to work with WoD 099


thoughts?

There is the Shadow Strike weapon ability: You attack and automatically go out of combat and into stealth right after. You could be in stealth mode, attack with it, and would immediately be back into stealth after the attack.

I need to script it yet, but it's coming soon.

As for that perk, how would players obtain it?

The perks were based on a system. type .perk and there were options (.perk list, .perk available, .perk # to activate the perk). the perks were basically passive bonuses.

I could probably build it into the stealth.src script so that it kicks in when you go stealth mode. Like I said, I dont' want the bonus, I just wanna know how many steps I have give or take

I was just looking at the 099 scripts and if you throw the line below into the stealth.src then it will show the steps I can take

PrintTextAbovePrivate( hider, steps, hider );

stick that in right below line PrintTextAbovePrivate( hider, "You are now moving stealthily", hider );


If you are interested in the backstabbing command I could fix that up too....

Did you ever get that shadow attack skill scripted? Was thinking about making a sneaker


I got the backstab command working in a basic way on WOD 099 scripts

I haven't scripted it yet, but the framework for Weapon Abilities has been written and is ready for it.

was wondering if we could work something out for the backstabbing i mentioned or shadow strike.

I want to make a rogue but hiding and stealth are such a waste

I could try and code something in if you're up for it.....
