The "Demoness" Costume

Since the "Demoness" is not from the crystalline world,
will she still have crystalized minions? or normal-mob looking minions with distinguishers?
Just out of curiosity. :squire:

Much as I would LOVE for it to be the latter, I'd be willing to bet it's the former.

I think it'd be cool to have some flaming minions to distinguish them (With a different flame effect than a fire elemental enemy, of course)

ya, game needs more flames
would you be able to tell them apart?

lol. i get your point. but even crystalized minions can't be distinguished
during a wave full of mine traps and inferno traps.
hell, you can't even distunguish yourself and other characters
during a wave full of mines and infernos. lol.

i think what Ruoivas means is just a simple distinguisher that the
minions came from a demoness and not a normal summoner. and i like the idea
of flaming minions. not the uber-flaming kind. :squire:

I wondered the same. it would be nice if the minions got their own costumes with the demoness, but sadly im doubtful. I'd love to see Skeletal minions running around, the flaming just seems a tad too...common. too many flames. Ideas, Ideas

Even just much darker colors would be nice.

Completely black minions! Was thinking about red first, but we already have red enemies. Babypink would also work...

God now I really hope Trendy sees this and considers adding it shortly, assuming it's not already in.

Maybe not flaming, maybe something more magma, rock, and lava-ey. Like Blaze from that Mortal Kombat game everyone forgot about already

I think this would be REALLY cool, and hope that (Again, assuming that the Demoness isn't getting uniquely skinned monsters) Trendy gives it some consideration.

wew, i really like most of the ideas shared here.
hmm,, maybe minions with horns? lol.
skelatized versions of mobs just like what Plasmakirby said.
magmatized are cool too by Ruoivas.

i think magmatized would be appropriate since the costume
will be incorporated with the talay mining and volcanic erruption missions.

anyway, i really hope too that Trendy would listen.

I love playing my summoner, but I would much prefer trendy spend their dev time in other areas. You can't even see minions or much of anything 90% of the time

It's not really dev time to create new art assets; Trendy create everything that's necessary for testing way in advance. Like, the map and boss for Shards 4 were shown in the shards trailer before christmas. That's enough that they could do all of their testing without any more graphical work and just spruce it up ready for release.

What I'm saying is that Trendy give themselves a lot of room to do extra things like costumes and artwork for minor projects without really interrupting the game's development cycle. Artists and animators are not necessarily programmers, but they're being paid, so they should be doing something at least.

Personally, I'd love i if Trendy did slight graphical redesigns to minions for the Demoness costume, but it'd set precedent to expect Trendy to do similar things in the future, or to reach back and modify defenses for other costumes or at least alt-genders... which would be cool, if they have the time for it at least. Heck, the idea of defenses getting accessories/costumes sparate from hero costumes could be cool. Like, customize our ogre minions so they have top hats, or something. Pretty certain a few weeks back somebody put a bowler hat on a magic missile tower for a laugh.

Magma minions could be a simple re-texture. To make it look cool you could even add an "emit" texture. That is something that could be like a community contest. Do your best demon themed minions re-texture and the best set could be released officially.

I support this idea.

+100, if it's even possible.

shell be faster and have less hitpoints. thats going to be the only difference. and was it said somewhere that she wasnt from the crystalline realm, or is this just speculation because she isnt all crystalline like the summoner, because that doesnt really mean anything.

Its all speculation and odds of the minions looking different with a skin are slim to none.

thats what i figured. yeah, the minions looking different is pretty doubtful, but i do agree it would be cool if they had a different appearance. im just not expecting anything more than a hitpoint and movement speed change. if it were anything else, like casting speed, then the male costume is obsolete because cast speed it such an important stat for the summoner.

she may summoner the other mobs like wyverns, kobolds, skellies, djinn, sharken e.t.c

It's just a new skin, not a new class (like Amazon for the Barbarian and Bounty Hunter for Series EV), so this isn't going to happen.

And here we go, the Team Fortress 2 madness is spreading to DD as well! xD

id love if they gave the minions a hellish twist (horns, bat wings, forked tails, lava, fire etc) but its unlikely...
a costume with special minions would be a great reward for mythical RTS (>.> <.<)
