DUNGEON ITEMS, NERFING, AND COMPENSATION

[Oda Nobunaga]

So, as you all know, the loot from Numa Castle is ridiculous. Takehiro and Naotora alone receive about 200+ in stat points from these item sets, and that puts them well above the strength of any daimyo or their armies. This is a very big case of stat inflation, and it's something I'd like to take care of now rather than later, so here it is.

Loot from Numa Castle is going to be changing. Rather than receive entire armor sets from Knights and Riders, you'll get their one (1) weapon and one (1) piece of armor, much like what people get from Stalkers and Rogues. (If you've done Numa, you'll know the ones I'm talking about. If not, just know you'll get one item/armor piece from now on).

Because of this rule, I'm asking that players get rid of the majority of their Numa Castle items. Keep one item per set. If you've already fused your items together, you get to keep one of the fused items from your fused armor sets. So here's how it'll all work:

1) Players will keep all weapons they've earned from dungeons.
2) Players will keep all loot from chests they've earned from dungeons.
3) Players keep all loot from Stalkers and Rogues they've earned from dungeons.
4) Players keep one armor piece per Knight and Rider they've killed in dungeons.
--- This means if you've killed one Knight and you got a full set, pick an item from the set you want the most, and you can keep it. Got a Rider set (Tak, Nao, Ryu, Haji, Kat, Yuki), pick the item you want the most.
---Players who have already fused their items from the Knight Sets, pick one item from your fused set to keep.
5) All players who have participated, or are currently participating in Numa Castle will receive monetary compensation.
--- All players who have completed Numa Castle will receive a flat 10k Yen compensation for losing these items and spending money on them.

The reason this is happening is because, again, stat inflation is a thing. And I want these re-settled before Okehazama's second round begins. Also, Numa Castle is an easy dungeon. Shouldn't be jumping stats that high.

[Morei Haji]

All Haji is keeping, minus weapons and chest loot, is:

Dark Fighter's Mask: This mask covers the wearer's face completely, and seems to turn all visible skin on their body black, and their eyes red. +4 Con +2 Wis
Power: Strikes to the head cannot daze the wearer. 1/2 damage taken from all blows to the head.

Rogue's Shell: Chest Add-On. The shell of the Rogue slain by Haji seems to have been hallowed out, and is so thick it cannot be pierced by most blades. Because of this, it serves as armor of sorts. +5 Con +4 Str

Rider's Necklace: The gem on this necklace is imbued with the soul of the Rider who bore it, their Mon embedded beneath the gem's surface. +3 Spr +3 Wis
Power: This necklace has the power to summon the Rider's demon chariot once per thread. There is no limit to how long the chariot may be used, but once it has been defeated or restored to the gem, it can no longer be used in the same thread.

[Sanada Yukimura]

What Yukimura is keeping:

Dark Warrior's Helmet: This helmet fits snugly on the wearer's head, seeming to hide all of their facial features. Their eyes turn yellow upon use, and their face and neck turn pitch black.

+6 Con.

Power: Strikes to the head cannot daze the wearer. 1/2 damage taken from all blows to the head.

Rogue's Shell: Chest Add-On. The shell of the Rogue slain by Yukimura seems to have been hallowed out, and is so thick it cannot be pierced by most blades. Because of this, it serves as armor of sorts.

Rider's Necklace: The gem on this necklace is imbued with the soul of the Rider who bore it, their Mon embedded beneath the gem's surface.

+3 Wis, +3 Spr

[Ichimura Ryunosuke]

Keeping these (since the knights and riders' loot would be nerfed:):

Dark Gunner's Visor: This mask fits comfortably on the wearer's face, turning their skin and hair black, and their eyes red. The eyes are protected, and their vision enhanced. +6 Dex
Power: The wearer's vision is enhanced, improving their aim. All things that that could be seen as distractions - dirt, debris, mist - are nullified from their vision, and they can make a mental mark on one person at a time. The mark is visible even at great distances, and they have a 95% accuracy rating on this target.

Rider's Necklace: The gem on this necklace is imbued with the soul of the Rider who bore it, their Mon embedded beneath the gem's surface. +3 Spr +3 Wis
Power: This necklace has the power to summon the Rider's demon chariot once per thread. There is no limit to how long the chariot may be used, but once it has been defeated or restored to the gem, it can no longer be used in the same thread.

...Just the things necessary to make me what I plan to be.

Rider's Necklace: The gem on this necklace is imbued with the soul of the Rider who bore it, their Mon embedded beneath the gem's surface. +3 Spr +3 Wis

Rider's Greaves: These greaves are very tough, made of some of the finest steel around. The material on the bottoms provide stability and support in rocky situations. +6 Dex
Power: As long as the wearer has both feet on the ground, they can not be knocked down or away

Rider's Tasset: This tasset is more cloth than steel, yet still provides great protection for the lower body. +6 con.
Power: When riding the Demon Chariot, the horse and Rider leave behind a trail of darkness that harms any who touch it
