Someone forgot to eat his Chaos-O's. You do realize the irony of a Chaos Warrior objecting to random, haphazard, chaotic patron selection?

Touche!

Still, how about the idea of having just three or four patrons who are all quite different from each other, instead of 16 almost identical ones?

Also, did not realize that a chaotic weapon gave you a patron...I always play a chaos warrior anyway and I don't use chaotic weapons hardly ever at any rate.

I like having a load of different potential Patrons, it just seems more Chaosy. Hell, I even think it would be cool to see randomly generated Patrons with unique names and random sets of level-up 'gift' weightings.


As it stands I think there's a fair bit of variety. For example, some Patrons are noticeably more likely to give you mutations - I'm playing a Half-Titan who has Slaanesh as a Patron and I've already got 7 mutations out of 14 level-ups. My previous Chaos Warrior had Khorne as a Patron, and got a ton of weapons as gifts. I remember Eequor being a moody goddess who gave out as many punishments as rewards. It is true that many are more in the middle ground though.

I really like this idea. Not just more true to the flavor, but it also obviates the demand for spoilers.

I would also like randomly generated patrons - but I got to say, I think they should never kill you. They can do some bad stuff - destroy your gear (which currently doesn't affect artifacts, but honestly I'd be OK if it did), cut off a bunch of your health and surround you with monsters, etc. but I don't think they should just straight up say "game over" and that's it. You should always have a chance, however slim, to escape.

There are probably plenty of other things you could come up with for them to do - some good, some bad, some neutral. For example, turning every monster on the level into a randomly selected monster type, or redrawing the map in the shape of something weird, or who knows what else.
