Boss Arena Mod for Sacred 2 Ice & Blood + CM Patch 0160

This mod will add a new NPC to the MP starter island near the arena. After talking to it, it will start a boss chain quest, which includes the following bosses in 4 waves, spawning each boss one after another:

Wave 1:
    The White Griffin
    Raging Boar
    Harpy Queen
    Holos

Wave 2:
    Flame Lord
    Ice Lord
    Earth Lord
    Poison Lord

Wave 3:
    Daloriel the Depraved
    Banshee
    Bloodclaw

Wave 4:
    Dark Prince
    Thranak
    Forest Guardian


After each wave a confirmation at the quest giver is needed. I included these "milestones" to give the players a chance to sort their inventory, sell or stuff items away etc.

Most of these mini bosses are encountered on the map via a quest npc which basically tells you to go kill it. Thats means on top of the kill experience you get the quest experience. Each of these bosses now give additional quest experience, that also includes the forest guardian and 3 of the lords, which dont have a quest. In concequence this arena is an easy spot to farm experience and items. I created it for multiplayer games, so that the server doesnt need to be restarted for those bosses to spawn again. Right now it stops after one round, but at least you dont need to go to their locations to farm them.


WARNING: You need  Ice & Blood 2.65.1 + CM Patch 160 (2.65.2 might be working too, but CM Patch is needed)

==========================================
==========================================
Manual Install (recommended):


1. Paste everything from new_bosses.txt inside the subfolder "manual install" to the end of the quest.txt inside your Sacred 2 - Fallen Angel\scripts\server (your game's install path)
2. Make sure there is no empty line between the newly added content and the already exisitng lines
3. Search for "quest.reserveQuestType {" (it should be quite at the top of the quest.txt
4. Look for "Killquest = XXX," and add 14 to that number "XXX"

Easy Install (only recommended if you have Ice&Blood 2.65.1 + CM Patch 160):

1. Copy and paste "quest.txt" from the subfolder "easy install" to "Sacred 2 - Fallen Angel\scripts\server" (your game's install path)


NOTES:
* Manual install keeps your current game info concerning creatures and quests and only adds the new npc and boss encounters. I cannot guarantee that this works all the time, as you need to have the same creatures defined. If you didnt mod anything, chances are high it works :)
* The automatic install is for those that have a clean version of the needed files, or just dont care.
* This mod only changes one file: quest.txt.  Backup this file before making any changes to it or replacing it.
* Boss Arena should be compatible with just about any Sacred 2 mod, except for "Diablo 2 Fallen."


Original Mod by momomo, who left behind "do-it-yourself" instructions HERE for updating this mod into any other mod or new game version.  So I have updated the "easy install" option for use with Community Patch 1.60. -- Flix, 2018
