Essentially my friend (zakariahliklikleh) and I started this project after hearing about the new WoW Boss Contest and decided to work on a small dungeon for 5 players coop.
Features already implemented in the game include:
Real-time threat w/ Threat meter
Boss with timed abilities
Timers to track those abilities
5 Unique heroes to select from
5 trainable unique abilities per Hero (90% of them are custom made abilities that do not exist in the game)
Cool looking hero selection system (credits to: SweetZombieJesus )
Shared Experience and level up system
What is being tested
First off, the reason i gave no specifics on the boss's abilities, the heroes abilities or the strategy to face the boss is because that's part of the test. We need to determine if, with the information given to the players in-game, it would be possible for a group of players to figure out how to defeat the boss in addition to what abilities the players should avoid learning that early in the game (more on this later)
In addition:
We would like to test and see how fast a full team of 5 good RPG performers can take down the boss. This information will then allow us to balance the damage/HP of heroes and bosses accordingly or adjust his final timer.
More map info
The heroes work with a basic level up system. Each hero has a main ability that must be taken at the start (player does not have a choice since all his other abilities require the main one at least [Level 1]). The first boss is usually engaged at Level 2 (Shared Experience system makes it so that all heroes obtain kill experience) and therefore everyone will have 2 abilities to use, the main one and one of your choosing from the remaining 4. Each ability can level up to a max of [Level 3] but there is an implemented Warcraft 3-like system where you need to be certain levels to get the same ability at higher tier.
If you are interested in trying out our map to help us test it please post below. My in-game name is OlliWilliams.649 We are on the US-East Realm. Thank you!
your map looks fun, and it seems theres a lot of work on it so it deserve a test :P my id is Stoned (eu server) im on right now and for a part of teh night.

I tried registering on this site but i never get my confirmation e-mail in either my filtered locations or Inbox. Also it seems i need to be logged in to contact an administrator so I can't really do anything about it.
