Queen of Bats.

Post by Cicero »

Is the wing of queen of bats Axe ever going to be used in TR? And if so, will there be an actual person referred to as the queen of bats? Sounds like a priest of nocturnal or possibly a necromancer. Could be a quest close to the skyrim boarder as the nightingale hall boarders morrowind.


Also, I think it would be neat to have chillrend placed somewhere like in an ice cave or something. Just as an easter egg to oblivion. Just a retextured glass sword like usual would be awesome.

I totally agree with you, we have so many huge and spectacular dungeons, but not very much exciting loot to find in them.

I for one would even like to see completely new artifacts in TR (there'd be more than enough good resource models to make use of), but I don't know what's the stand point of the current team lead on this.

It's not something that's been discussed a great deal as far as I know, although I think we all want to see some shiny unique loot.

The Queen of Bats thing is probably not one we'd touch, though. Better to create new things.

But there is nothing stopping TR from using it. It never had a good implementation in mods that use it. like for example, Placing it in Balmora Trader or something. I think it would be good to have a quest related to the axe. From TR's view point. The axe has never actually been used for anything. Its an asset from vanilla Morrowind that is new. It is new because no one has seen it outside of modding.

Problem with the queen of bats is it's been added by every mod ever, and now it makes everybody groan -> it's considered moddy,

Definitely need more, new shiny stuff though.

I do agree that the Queen of Bats should not be used in TR.

But, looking at other shiny, unique loot, Ashstaar made some cool models:

Hopefully, these will be available soon. :D

Hey, I remembered another TR artifact called the Ring of Lighting Speed. It's ID in the CS is "TR_m2_ring_lightspeed" Other than that, Chillrend may or may not be a good idea.

There is a lack of OC here - ORIGINAL artifacts, with their own, new stories. Translating artifacts from other games into TR is cool but isn't going to cut it

(why even list 'queen of bats' if it's not going to be used...)
