I just had an idea:

Is there room in the plot for an incompetent early-game boss that, upon defeat, proclaims himself as the party's rival and follows them around for the rest of the game? Because I wouldn't mind being that

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

Spoiler: Armor (click to show/hide)

Chestplate made of unknown material
Armor
Very High Defense
75% resistance to all magic
Can only be equipped by Zanzetkuken.
Only armor that can be equipped by Zanzetkuken.
A chestplate forged of a now unknown metal.  This is a unique artifact.
Found: Zanzetkuken's initial load-out

No... No no no no no. 75% resistance to all magic is horribly overpowered for a single piece of equipment, especially considering that you still have accessories/shield to consider. 25% at most, maybe 30% or something like that.

Changed to 25%.

Reminder:  I would like to have this character only defeatable when your party passes level 75.

75% is far too much for level 75 too. Really, you should only get that much resistance through cheating, exploitations or combing a bunch of rare and hard-to-get items.

Makes sense.

Also you know what...

What if after you defeat Zanzetkuken he drops the COMPLETELY UNBALANCED versions of his equipment, but they are far too powerful for his depowered self after he joined the party (Meaning no one can equip them)

So getting his ultimate equipment is actually based upon actually ruining it.

Are you able to see the strength of the armor being equipped by the opponent?  If so, then the stuff you see there is Uber-powered, but during the battle, it breaks, leaving you with weaker versions that are still powerful.

YES WE KNOW THAT YOU WANT YOUR CHARCTER TO BE LOLAWSUM LEVEL 9000 SHUT UP ABOUT IT ALREADY.

Geez.

That comment makes me think that the maximum level should be changed to 9001, or higher...

You generally can't buy unique stuff from shops because shops only sell generic stuff.

Other than that: Whuh?

Unique is unfortunately named but when I say it I am actually refering to any peice of equipment only one character can equip.

Since you don't share your weapons Darvi... all your weapons are unique.

Anyone who has a "Generic weapon set" will immediately be turned into a unique set if no one else shares it.

Are you able to see the strength of the armor being equipped by the opponent?

No, the goal was that after you join the party you lament over the fact that because you are a PC instead of a boss it means you are far too weak to use your old equipment.

Your old equipment actually being in the inventory in a completely unbalanced state.

To use them again you have to find a way to ruin them (And since your sword is the ultimate weapon and your armor is the ultimate defense... that is easier said then done) and turn them into extremely powerful junk.

[Darvi]

extremely powerful junk.

I vote that this becomes the name of his weapon.

Also, what about the rest of that post?

Well you said you were a Ninja and thus you don't share.

Thus all the weapons you can use Darvi are ones that only you can equip.

Since you are a Ninja it means you cannot find any of your weapons in shops (not the ninja way)

Since you are hogging the weapons they sell for nothing.

Thus all your weapons are dropped by enemies in battle.

[Darvi]

I still don't see why they wouldn't be sellable. You can't buy shit with weapons. Extort, perhaps, but I am also lazy and would avoid the hassle.

Ok then sure, your weapons still sell for money.

Derm could break the armor and weapon out of rage of not being able to use the armor.  This would weaken it down to infinity-1 level rather than infinity+X level.

So the goal is to somehow trick Derm to use the weapons?

[Darvi]

What the?

[Neonivek]

What the?

What?

[Darvi]

For starters, I never said a word about armour.

You said it way earlier, but I can edit it. What kind of armor, or armors, is your general armor?

General: Equipment one character can share with another character
Unique: Equipment only one character can equip

After the battle, the only person you can equip the armor to seems to be Derm.  When you try to equip it he is annoyed that anything that powerful exists and breaks the armor down to level spoken of previously, and making it only equipable to Zanzetkuken.  The weapon will just be nerfed to start with.
