Battle System Upgrades – Part 7

Posted by:

As part of the battle system upgrades for the Knight’s prologue, a new item – the Smoke Bomb – was introduced. Smoke Bombs are a new item in Last Dream II that guarantee escape from battle. 

The battle screenshot shows the Smoke Bomb animation. The addition of the Smoke Bomb required new animations, new mechanics to allow for activating the ‘escape’ mechanism, and a bonus to the escape chance.

We expect that careful balancing of the cost of Smoke Bombs – similar to the balancing performed for elemental bombs in Last Dream I – will be required to ensure that they don’t become overpowered and allow players to run from everything through each dungeon.
