dynamicSkillSystem

Raiding.Zone doesn’t have “classes”. Instead, your equipment determines your abilities and your role in the raid. The weapon gives your main spells and sets your role. Your armor and trinket will grant you a defensive and utility spell each.

Talents

While using your weapon, you gain experience. This experience unlocks different talents on each weapon. You can choose one talent for each level.

Essences

You can further customize your items by mounting essences. Essences grant raw stats to your item. It will also unlock certain augments on the right essence combination.

The Idea of Casual Raiding

I am a huge fan of MMORPGs. I particularly enjoy the raiding experience. I like to play in coordination with other people to defeat a boss. In recent years, I developed an aversion to the current direction of popular MMOs.

I don’t want to grind for hours to have one hour of raiding time. That feeling sparked the idea to develop an MMORPG that focuses on raiding. Since October 2021, I worked on Raiding.Zone in my free time. I am a professional developer since 2016. This is my first experience with game development. I enjoy the learning process.

roadmap

I will use Steam Early Access to implement changes that need community feedback. For next year, I plan to add new content, community, and competitive features. After that, I have some roughly lined-up ideas. But if they don’t resonate with the community, I might change or abandon these ideas.

You can support Raiding.Zone

I am in urgent need of testers. I want to remove as many bugs as possible till the release. If you are interested, you can visit my Discord. Every tester will get a special avatar for their efforts.

Raiding.Zone is present on Reddit, Itch.IO, GameDev, IndieDB, and YouTube. If you want to support this project, you can follow me there. I am also eager to help any creator that wants to make content about Raiding.Zone. I can provide invites, marketing material, and technical insights.

Release - Run of Elements

Jun 2 2024 News

I could not decide whether to release the content directly to the live servers. Then, I discovered a nasty bug on the live systems and decided to take two steps forward.

So, I released the raid to live.

You might remember the old Pit of Elements and Firebound Forge level.

They got a complete overhaul. Both are now part of the same raid Run of Elements. I’ve also added a new level right between them called Buried Entrance.

Buried Entrance features a zerging fight.

You have to unearth the buried entrance to the Firebound Forge. To achieve this you take those detonation bugs and kite them to the entrance.

If you kill it, it will explode and damage the entrance.

Normal, Challenging and Adamant difficulty feature additional mechanics. But I don’t want to spoil the whole raid for you.

Special thanks to Madraox! He is the designer behind many creatures in this raid. My favorite is the scorpion.

Next up is a desert-style world level.

Madraox already designed most of it. Design, gameplay, and most of the decoration are already in place. I need to compose it together and implement the mechanics he envisioned.
