From 7df95877aa0fb91a3bba710e15b0514cd0eafafb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jude Brown Date: Sat, 26 Dec 2009 22:17:45 +1000 Subject: Make steel ammo rarer before D:10. Centaurs with steel ammo seem to do an average of 17 to 20 damage, as opposed to another with flame ammo, which did between 5 and 10 damage per hit. At low levels, this is an instantaneous kill. --- crawl-ref/source/makeitem.cc | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'crawl-ref/source/makeitem.cc') diff --git a/crawl-ref/source/makeitem.cc b/crawl-ref/source/makeitem.cc index 3d8421ade8..ee473f1a04 100644 --- a/crawl-ref/source/makeitem.cc +++ b/crawl-ref/source/makeitem.cc @@ -1849,7 +1849,8 @@ static special_missile_type _determine_missile_brand(const item_def& item, rc = SPMSL_REAPING; else if (temp_rand < 110) rc = SPMSL_SILVER; - else if (temp_rand < 120) + // Make steel rarer at lower levels. {due} + else if (temp_rand < 120 && (you.your_level > 10 || one_chance_in(3))) rc = SPMSL_STEEL; else if (temp_rand < 130) rc = SPMSL_DISPERSAL; -- cgit v1.2.3-54-g00ecf
