Enemy level Curves.

[trexmaster8242]

Description of the Feature:
When making enemies in RPG Maker, you have to make the stats by yourself, figure out if it is balanced if this enemy has 100 attack at level one and 200 attack at level 2. I was wondering if there could be a system that would make the enemy creation a lot like the class creation.


Code for Implementation:
AHAHA, yea no, im not that good of a coder, let alone, a java coder.

Mockups:
Something like this, just with enemies.

Something along the lines of this.^^^^^

Why this is a good feature?
This would make all enemy creation a lot easier. This way, instead of remaking an enemy and changing the stats yourself, the system does it for you.
You put the base stats for a level 1 enemy. When you want the same enemy to face the player again, but at a higher level, you put what level you want the enemy to be. Based off of the stats you put for the level 1 enemy, it will generator what stats it should have at what ever level you want.
This way, enemy creation would be a lot more fun, fair, and a lot easier.

Possible issues with this feature?
I cannot think of any problems.

I think Yanfly made something like that, hold on...

Either of those more like what you were looking for?

I don't think I can second it.
Because this would mean every monster would have had large chunks of useless data inside the json files. Not to mention, the balancing issues are still the same, you still need to balance the curves properly.

In my opinion the curve should start slowly toward the beginning of the game; you don't want to give your player too much of a hard time getting into things. Once they've established a sort of understanding of the gameplay and what to expect (perhaps around 15%-25% completion) you can start kicking it up a notch.

Voted No:

if you had 300 Enemies, you have to blanaced ALL of them with 1000s of runs per enemy. jsut as Poryg said, it would make balancing harder, not easier. and have them have large chunks of data.
I'd rather just come up with a polynomial.

balancing is usally a task that requires someone with some high school math skills.
or if your lazy you can pick say 10 points at which MHP is at Y value at X Level.
then use this thing, it wont be perfectr buit it will be close

then use the Y= formula.
it will get an aproxximation of those values.

What about a simple set enemy "Class" inside the enemy tab!!
It would allow for a lot of customization.
