Interesting idea... I myself enjoy grinding the way it is.. I don't even use magic finder... But this helm could be useful to those seeking fast exp as well...
As for cursed items, more gear like blackwater gear would be interesting too...

Re: Suggest item - helmet of grinding
this reminds me of an old shareware RPG called "castle of the winds". you could town portal out from the dungeon anytime you like (if you had the magic points / scrolls available) untill you collected the final artifact.... it would absorb the magic, making you have to fight your way out from level 25.Darkstar wrote:I think I just had a cool idea for the quest. You go into a dungeon with long narrow hallways. The resistance will not be to much,then you kill the boss and you can't move unless you have the helmet on. Getting back out will be extremely hard because of all of the monsters in the narrow halls as a result of wearing the helmet.
the grinding helm itself though im not to sure on, but the idea of unidentified items (cursed or enchanted) has always been one of my favourite parts of RPG's. find a sword and its a sword, but an unidentified one???? oh, the possibilities.
you could always have he items identify for free if they are equipped but if they are cursed then you CANNOT remove them until a priest identifys them...
just kicking around ideas.

I am not a fan of "Hidden" cursed items. They take away fun in a measurable quantity from me. And skills are WAY to precious to add another "Must Have" skill.

Re: Suggest item - helmet of grinding
Interesting idea. Think it could randomize game even more, which personally I like Chaos. Then again I am a wacko from Waco... so maybe I am biased.
Here are my ideas for such, one for each kind of equip-able item and a potion. Names in ( ).
Cursed shield (Gamblers Chance): DR+2 if you successfully block & DR-3 one if you fail to block.
If dual wield comes about then
Pole arm (a double ended, double sided blade, handle grip in middle) sword (requires two hands) weapon (Blade of Desperation): 5-10 AD with a chance of doing 3 damage to self if not properly swung (In other words, chance to hurt self)
Cursed Necklace (Venomous Voracity): -1 health per round but +1 AD (constant) and +2 health for a kill
Cursed Boots (Waited Trainers): No flee ability but +1 AP
Cursed Helm (Pointless Ponderer): -10% BC but -1 AP Cost
Cursed Gloves (No Slip Grips): +10% AC & BC but +1 AP
Cursed Body (Dark Dragon Scale Mail): +3 DR but +4 to movement and -15% BC
Cursed Potion (Full Speed to Dead): Like the Minor Potion of Speed except instead it's +4 AP for 5 rounds and -1 DR for 10
I love to brain storm. I am a writer and creative type. If you ever want extra idea to be spit balled. Let me know. I am your man.

Sorry i need to ask about Cursed Gloves (+10% AC & BC but +1 AP) ...IMO there is typo and you mean " -1 AP"... ?Roamin_Roman wrote:Interesting idea. Think it could randomize game even more, which personally I like Chaos. Then again I am a wacko from Waco... so maybe I am biased.

I like your attitude and love the idea of curced items... but IMO curced items should have more "lethal" affeckt to player than those you already suggest

Re: Suggest item - helmet of grinding
Maybe mine should be viewed as something like new version BMW equipment except with their own trade offs.
Thanks again, I just like being involved in things. Plus... I think it'd be awesome if something I came up with was in a game. A way to be immortalized.
