Possible new DSB dungeon builder

Post by Trantor »

Having played the Unintended Heroism dungeon, I currently have a few ideas for a new dungeon and have looked a little closer at DSB. I needed about an hour or so of reading to create something I always wanted to do in RTC but was unable to - a potion that permanently raises a stat. Having the test dungeon and Unintended Heroism as sources of knowledge, this was a lot easier than I would have thought. If my motivation and time lasts long enough (unlikely, but not entirely impossible), I might actually build a dungeon for DSB, with Mophus as the only available hero.

But it's a dungeon where you play the bad guy. Who else could it be if not Mophus?

Is it won then when the good monsters kill the bad guy?
Not an easy task, when the bad guy faster regenerates than the screamers can hit :D

Bit, that will be the secret alternative ending: Just die, and the world has been saved. :-P
Actually, the first idea was to use heroes as enemies instead of the usual monsters, and maybe even have friendly monsters to summon or recruit as party members, but this is all too ambitious for me. I was over-ambitious before and have hopefully learned my lesson.

Hi Trantor, you met a friendly monster in Unintented Heroism and you can recruit him later as a party member.
Spoiler
He carries a compass

Yes terkio, I've seen that; maybe I'll steal it. ;) After all, my RTC dungeon Doom Blade allowed you to create friendly monsters, carried around in Pokeballs. In DSB, I could actually catch them again if I don't need them anymore, as DSB's test dungeon shows. Hmm... the ideas are starting to flow.
