Possible to make PvE only weapons? :S

[billtommo]

I Have recently started trying to develop a new wow server and i got an idea. Because i dont want players running around killing each other with 1 hit from a 50k hit with some crazy OP weapon, i was wondering if it was possible to make a weapon that could only do damage to PvE Mobs on be harmless on players. I want to be able to do this for raiding high end dungeons and difficult custom boss's but im not sure how i can do it.
Anyone have some ideas?

Disable PVP? Unless you want taht as part of your serv

This can be done with a core patch.

I would probably find all code that affects player's health, and backtrack from there to find combat functions. Find the damage function, and modify the code that deals with physical damage to check if the target is a player.

Make sure you also ensure cleave effects will not damage players if one of these weapons is equipped.



You will not be able to do this using a repacks.

There is lot's of ways, as Eradicator said for example or there are hooks for items that you can use to control various things. A poor fix, which would be easier, is upon dealing damage with item X check if target is a player...
