[Online game] Gentle captive appearance party method

A commoner walks through the jungle.

"Swish--" The branches and leaves made a delicate sound as they hit the body.

The figure hooked its back and rummaged through the grass for something.

"Then who is lying to me, there is not even a shadow of a screw..." Yu Xiangbai stared at the back of the 3D villain on the computer screen, muttering to himself.

"This young man is wandering in the woods, isn't he planning something bad?"

Yu Xiangbai, who had always focused his eyes on the grass and trees, was startled by the text bubble that suddenly appeared in the center of the screen, and subconsciously straightened his back.Turning his gaze, he saw a small black man standing behind a big tree, staring at a translucent dialog box.

[Nearby] A pair of scissors: What the hell, suddenly appeared to scare people to death!

It was only after Yu Xiangbai typed such a sentence in the near chat channel that he finally saw the name of the villain's character, "Xiaocilang".

With the word bubble on his head that hadn't disappeared, Xiao Jilang jumped in front of a pair of scissors that Yu Xiangbai was manipulating, and swung around in a circle.

"Little scissors, are you looking for something?" A new text appeared on Xiao Shilang's head.

"What kind of small scissors are you calling, but a stranger, what is it like!" Yu Xiangbai thought in his heart, and typed the same words on the public screen.

After all, the game is not like reality. Meeting new friends requires basic politeness and pleasantries. In the game, strangers only need a sentence or two to quickly get closer.Although Xiao Shilang's strike-up looks abrupt, it happens from time to time in the game.

Yu Xiangbai has never been a thorn in the side, and if he usually encounters such an accusation, he would not be embarrassed to block back the other party's words, but this time Xiaocilang ran into Yu Xiangbai when he was most impatient.

This is the fourth afternoon that Yu Xiangbai has been wandering around this grove with this little man named a pair of scissors, staring at the dense green under his feet for such a long time, his eyes have been exhausted, but he still can't find himself. Wanted props.

Anxiety has already enveloped Yu Xiangbai.

In general online games, when creating a character, you can roughly determine the career direction of the character in the future, but the online game "Twilight and Dawn Tower" does not follow the normal rhythm.Newborn characters have no occupational restrictions, no weapons and equipment, and only three unarmed skills in attack methods: straight punch, side kick and elbow strike. Learning more powerful skills requires activating the skill tree to proceed successfully.

Possession of a weapon is a prerequisite for activating the skill tree.After talking to Ukel, the village chief of Novice Village, the NPC whose curly white beard covers most of his face will give the new player a set of white cloth clothes and matching cloth shoes. After putting them on, the player will receive a The task of finding weapon parts, this task is the beginning of the player's career choice.

Weapon parts are scattered in every corner of Xinshou Village and a nearby forest, maybe buried in the soil under a certain tree root, maybe hung on a small branch of the blueberry tree at the entrance of the village, or hidden in the little widow's house next to the village chief's house In the grain pile in the backyard.

Players can use the small shovel presented by the village chief to dig and explore within the limited area of ​​the map. Small props such as iron blocks, stones, or wood found may become important props for synthetic weapons.The weapon maker in the village will make the props found by the player into a weapon, which will activate the character's skill tree.

"Tower of Dusk and Dawn" has seven different sets of skill trees. When one set of skill trees is activated, the remaining six sets will be permanently inactive.These seven sets of skill trees represent the seven major skill factions, monks with sticks, knights who resist spears and shields, swordsmen with swords, assassins with guns or crossbows, hermits with spell daggers, and wands The mage and the armor master carrying the mecha box.There are two branches under each faction. Although players cannot change the skill faction after activating the skill tree, they can freely switch between the two branches by cleaning the skill tree.

Apart from the seven major factions, there is also an independent faction - Alchemists.

In the eyes of the players of "Tower of Dusk and Dawn", the alchemist is equivalent to a hidden profession.The chance of triggering is extremely small, and the career development is extremely strange.Alchemists have two special skills: reset skill tree and smelting.Once the faction is determined for other professions, it can no longer be changed, even if it is equipped with weapons from other factions, it cannot be used, but the alchemist is different.After the alchemist player resets the skill tree, the character state returns to the state before the faction was selected, which is jokingly called "returning to the original state" by the players.At this time, equip the weapons of other factions to activate the skill tree of that faction.

If the faction reset function of "return to the original factory state" allows players who want to play with multiple factions to achieve their wishes by re-playing an account, then the skill of smelting weapons is for players of the seven major factions The focus of jealousy.

Players of the seven major factions have two ways to obtain more powerful weapons, either by playing dungeons or dropping them from world bosses, or by finding NPC weapon makers to build them.However, alchemists can use smelting to forge the weapons they want, and the smelting skill has a side effect that allows alchemists to equip any weapon.It is the default setting of "Tower of Dusk and Dawn" that characters cannot use weapons that are not of their own faction. For example, a monk with a stick cannot use the assassin's gun, and a mage with a staff cannot pick up the mecha box of the armorer.Alchemist broke this basic setting, broadened the career development path in the future, and derived many unexpected new professions.

The skill tree activated by the alchemist means that this can be one of the skill trees of the original seven factions, or it may be a brand new skill tree that no one has ever seen.

On the Wilderness Xinghuo server where Yu Xiangbai is located, there is an alchemist player who once smelted a pot and a spatula. After equipping it, he activated a brand new and ridiculous skill tree.The skills in the skill tree are all kinds of dish names. "Looking up at the starry sky pie" is a skill that sets a stun effect on the enemy. An attack bonus formation.As for why the "Full Banquet" appears in a game with a Western fantasy background, some players firmly believe that it is a bad taste of game planning.

The official has never announced how many sets of skill trees the alchemist can activate. There are only a dozen sets of skill trees that alchemists have discovered on the forum. Classification can only be classified into three types.

The various mysteries of the alchemist profession make players from all walks of life envious, but the extremely low activation rate keeps them away.

There are about 7000 players on the Wild Spark server, but only 57 of them are alchemists, which shows how rare alchemists are.

The Alchemist's initial active weapon is a Metal Bottle.There have also been technical posts on the forum discussing the list of parts needed to synthesize weapons that can activate the alchemist profession. After testing the various parts lists provided by some alchemist players, the host of the technical post finally calculated a "most likely to synthesize "Alchemist Metal Bottle" material list, the synthesis rate is [-]%.Even those alchemist players themselves can't figure out how they synthesized the metal bottle. It can only be said that luck is also a kind of strength.

"After 90.00% of the effort, I still need the last one percent of decisive inspiration to succeed." The poster wrote at the end of the post.

One sentence sums up all the hearts of players trying to activate an alchemist character.

Yu Xiangbai is also one of this group of broken players, he is not the first, nor will he be the last.

He explored this small forest for four days, just for a screw that is said to be able to greatly increase the probability of refining an alchemist's initial metal bottle.

He has always been persistent. Being fascinated by RPG puzzle games, he will open the dialogue with every NPC he meets, and will carefully investigate every suspicious item. This habit has also been persistently brought into online games.

However, after four consecutive days of confusion and months of accumulated cluelessness, the depression in my heart broke out under the unexpected interruption of this stranger who suddenly appeared in front of me.

"What kind of small scissors are you calling, but a stranger, what is it like!" He, who has always been good-tempered, dropped a cold sentence, opened the menu bar and pressed away viciously.
