Unique runes are back

They are back, but horribly broken and abilities from pre-4.3 aren't included so they need a major revamp and we gotta name the 4.3 unique runes.

What is needed:
-Unique runes (+5) for the 'new' 4.3 abilities.
-Special unique sets for the 'new' 2 classes; alien and shaman (3 sets per class).

We can use our creativity to name a couple of unique runes.

Example:
-The forcewall unique whichs adds +5 forcewall is called 'The Wall'.

Here's the complete list of abilities that need an unique rune.

Code:

#define FIRE_TOTEM      
#define WATER_TOTEM      
#define AIR_TOTEM      
#define EARTH_TOTEM      
#define DARK_TOTEM      
#define NATURE_TOTEM   
#define FURY         
#define TOTEM_MASTERY   
#define   BERSERK         
#define SHIELD         
#define CALTROPS      
#define SPIKE_GRENADE   
#define DETECTOR      
#define CONVERSION      
#define DEFLECT         
#define SCANNER         
#define EMP            
#define DOUBLE_JUMP      
#define LOWER_RESIST   
#define FIREBALL      
#define PLASMA_BOLT      
#define LIGHTNING_STORM   
#define MIRV         
#define SPIKER         
#define HEALER         
#define OBSTACLE      
#define GASSER         
#define COCOON         
#define ACID         
#define SPORE         

Special uniques are bound to classes:

xeno for alien

I only read Echon's Legacy for fire totem. I had to stop there because I was laughing too hard. I'll ready the rest of the list later. Do the full sets still give massive bonuses?

They give +3 to every class skill (and the 4 pt abil - Remnant before 4.2)

Don't forget the +10 +10 +10 +1 +1 weapon bonus.

Third Spike = Third Reich joke?
That list is pretty awesome though, except >1 Strikes. Maybe Thor's hammer, or Zeus's bolt.
Lightning rod? Tesla coil? Electrical storm?

And, at the risk of being stupidly obvious, maybe shaman can be 'totemic'.

Yes

A lot of them I couldn't think of anything good for. (Still Shit etc.)

Suggest any replacements / do your own list so we can have a bunch to choose from.

I've made a list of the special uniques. Poltergeist and weapon master don't have any sets.
The weapon listed per class means it's fully upgraded (10 10 10 1 1) and the abilities listed are all +3.

What happened to 1-up?

It's still there (along with l33t dud). I just didn't list it because it's an unique with no stats.

It's the auto-tball unique.

I would disable 1-up and immortal from spawning because they are too godly.

On uniques, some abilities don't show up until you have 2 or more of the set correct? So if you only have 1 piece, then you only get the first 3 abilities listed on them right? I thought that was how it worked way back when.

If not, then you have to re-arrange some of the runes. For example:

-Paladin's Helm: - ArmorUpgrade, Regen, PowerShield, ArmorRegen

Are you seriously putting all the insanely useful abilities on one rune, and all the other useless spells on the other set piece? You gotta balance the runes.

Another example: why does one rune of soldier have str, res, and h/a while the other has all the crappy grenades. You need to balance it more.

Currently, in the uniques.csv file, you specify with every skill bonus how many of the set need to be present in order to activate it. The order doesn't technically matter, it only changes what order they are listed in when the set is complete.

I've finished and hopefully fixed all the unique stats, here is the file.

Fixed for real now.
