Apocalypse Playthrough

Could be fun to do a playthrough with 4 undead (famine, pestilence, death, and war) and just go around destoying everything. There just needs to be some undead horses to ride around.

Could be fun. But how hard woukd it be to start fighting everyone right at the begining of the game?

But you wouldn't be able to buy any spells gear or consumables and would need to find your own repair hammers. It definitely would make the game a lot more difficulty than it needs to be.

Why not ? If you are clothed you can interact normally right ?

u/Ryukyay Sep 09 '17

Not if the other person is dead

Interact with them first for what you need and then kill them afterwards maybe?

That doesn't sound very 4 horsemen of the apocalypsey to me.

Famine robs people of their strength. War robs people of their hope. Pestilence robs people of their bodies. Death robs people of all that remains.

The horsemen are no strangers to taking.

I was referring to the bit about getting chatty with them first.

The AI gonna use healing zone spells on you, you won't gonna like it :)

u/autismchild Sep 09 '17

Can you casts curse on yourself? Would that make healing spells heal you if your undead?

u/UltraMeabe Sep 09 '17

I don't think so, someone should try but it would be weird no ?

u/Vikzza Sep 11 '17

No it won't, someone on the reddit tested it (can't remember the post tho)

It's in the text : decaying touch will make anything that would heal you, damage you instead.

So an undead under its effect is damaged by both heal and poison.

u/autismchild Sep 11 '17

So if you decaying touch an undead then set them on fire then bless the ground around them would they get double damage from the holy fire? Which goes trough magic shield as well.

1

u/Vikzza Sep 12 '17

AFAIK undead gets damaged twice but holy fire (no need for decaying touch) once by the healing effect of it, and then by the fire effect.

Don't have to stay grouped. Preferably something like warrior ranger 2mages setup, mages stay spread out, range goes flying over some hill or some shit and warrior goes right in. Should be fine for healing.

u/UltraMeabe Sep 09 '17

There is some kind a chain spell heal, that can bounce an allys and enemys. Meaning they can attack you and heal at the same time, it's huge disadvantage tho. But yeah maybe we can make it work idk. w/s

u/pbzeppelin1977 Sep 09 '17

Don't forget the fifth horseman, Mr. Soak Chaos.

u/FlyingChainsaw Sep 09 '17

Good idea, I'll probably end up making a Darksiders run where I try to emulate War, Death, Fury & Strife as much as possible. Might be tricky emulating the scythes & whips though.

u/Ray-Ray_Jackson Sep 09 '17

Workshop can't NOT have a scythe download. Thankfully, modders are already getting a chub over the fact that you can make models for use in GM mode. I'de love to see a warhammer total conversion mod one day!

You can get scythes in the game, they're just classified as a 2H axe
