[Lua-Boss] Koronus - Video release

[hypersniper]

Due to the size of my submission it can be found at (Final Version here!). SQL here. NOTE: You may need to change the "creature_spawns" ID incase you have conflicting ID numbers. The main NPCs (Thrall, Jaina, Saurfang) will be spawned in the world when you execute the SQL, however additional soldiers will not. It is essential that you try to lay them out similiarly to how the screenshot shows. Requires LuAppArc and the Defined Variables.lua file. Screenshots:1 2 3
It is designed for minimum 20 players. If more players come, the boss accommodates for that by increasing its health.

Features:
-Fight with a song. The events of the boss battle match timing with "The Power of the Horde" song.
-Dynamic player count. Minimum 20 players, have as many more, the boss will accommodate.
-Phaseless fighting. Lack of repetitions and more timely music-based events = fun.
-EDIT: Mid-fight shot here

It is largely a race against the clock. You fight alongside Thrall, Jaina and Saurfang against a corrupted elemental on a floating rock platform high in Nagrand. The story is, this elemental, "Koronus", has been interfering with Thrall's spirit channeling. The Alliance choose to help through Thrall and Jaina's pact. You start on the ground near a small cliff with the three heroes and a group of soldiers. Every once in a while, a little mini-event happens amongst the heroes. Once you talk to Thrall to begin the battle, Jaina teleports you to the alter. Until you talk to Thrall, Koronus is unattackable on the platform. Once the battle begins, the song starts, and the very interesting battle continues. I can't explain it all as there is simply too much awesomeness. When the song ends, the boss enrages, killing all players.

Sidenote: The irony when scripting this: I wanted to make Saurfang die and revive during the fight. Getting him to die was hard. Unexplainable things kept going wrong. I'm not kidding. Saurfang doesn't die easily.

I was offput by the title because the amount of lines does not matter in a script. Looking through the script though it is quite good. Tables have been used, you can change how much dps each player needs to do through a variable and the npc's actually help you (something I had yet to seen from a script). Very good +Rep

This should work with GuaEngine (for those who don't have LuaAppArc, the project is dead).

I watched this video. I was really impressed. Everything seems well done, and put together quite excellently. +Rep Sir. Now if only I knew how to do that myself... xD; I also laughed insanely, when you said Saurfang doesn't die easily. >.> People do call him the WoW version of Chuck Norris, you know.

Amazingly well done. Something id think that Lua could not do You have shown the true power of Lua.

Thank you very much every body for your kind replies.
I only made the title like that to attract readers, I may change it to something more appropriate now.
Yes, that is correct, the GuaEngine will work fine with this Just make sure to have defined variables.lua as mentioned in the post if you need to use it.
People don't lie when they call Saurfang the Chuck Norris of WoW either! xD! But in the end I got him to die, as you see in the video.

Thank you again all
