Nighteyes604 sadly has stopped development on this, and has noted that anyone can pick it up and work on it. His post here : http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/dev-needed-plugin-revival-loreattributes.171252/#post-1845003 Because of this I will be taking over, and writing the new versions. I have already fixed it so it "WORKS". the main thing stopping the plugin from working was the health, and some other hooks to things like Mob Arena. Sadly I've disabled the mob arena hooks, but I have fixed health and it works. SO BIG THANKS TO NIGHTEYES604 for letting people take over.

DEC 2015 UPDATE

THIS PROJECT HAS EVOLVED. We went from a simple little plugin and it turned into a full blown full-scale mmorpg. More info can be found here:

A Little About Me

I'm 28, Married, Have a small child that loves to watch me play League of Legends, and a job that has me out for 50 hours a week. Why is that relevant you ask? Because it leaves me little time to work on things like this. Though making games and such is my passion, I will do my best to continue this at a decent pace, fixing bugs and adding features.

Lore Attributes REVIVAL

We've gone up to 1.6.4 and things are chugging nicely.

As with the Original Lore Attributes the following works :

Damage

Damage boosting can be applied to items in one of two ways - a random range, or a fixed increase.

"+5 Damage" on an item will increase damage dealt by 5 "2-6 Damage" on an item will set the player's damage to be a minimum of 2, maximum of 6.

Damage looks at the sum of all items equipped, and the item in the player's hand. Every range applied to an item is summed together, and then boosts are applied afterwards.

Example:

Helm: 2-3 Damage, Chest: +5 Damage, Sword: 5-10 Damage Overall Damage: 12-18

Health

Max health can be increased by fixed values and can be applied to any item the player has equipped.

+50 Health will increase the player's health by 50.

This action just sets the max health, not current health. If the player removes boosting armor and would have more health than their new max, their health will be lowered to their new max. Regeneration

Health regeneration can be increased by fixed values and can be applied to any item the player has equipped.

+50 Regen will increase their regeneration by 50.

Regeneration boosts are applied when health would typically be regenerated - the player is satiated / has a high food bar.

Attack Speed

Attack speed can be limited / increased and can be applied to any item the player has equipped, and the item in the player's hand.

+2 Attack Speed will increase the player's attack speed by 2.

All player's have a default attack speed of 1, and the "cooldown" between attacks is determined by "base-delay" in the config / attack speed, in seconds.

Example:

Sword: +1 Attack Speed. Base-Delay in config: 2 Attack Speed: Can deal damage once per second (2 / 2 = 1)

Attacks faster than the player's cooldown time will display the message in the config. If the message is set to "none" nothing will display. To use attack speed as a lore, it must be enabled in the config. It is disabled by default.

Dodge

A player can gain a % chance to dodge damage taken from another entity. The dodge attribute can be applied to any equipment the player is wearing, and the item in the player's hand.

Example: +5% Evasion will increase the chance to dodge damage from another living entity (such as monster or another player) by 5% (players start at 0%).

Critical Chance and Critical Damage

On dealing damage to another player or entity, players can be given a chance to have a critical attack - which deals critical damage. Players will need both the critical chance lore and the critical damage lore for crits to be noticable.

Example: +5% Critical Chance +10 Critical Damage

Means the player will deal an extra 10 damage on average 5% of the time.

Life Steal

Life steal lore gives players and monsters the ability to heal when they attack. Anyone with the life steal attribute will heal a maximum of their life steal bonus or the damage dealt, whichever is smaller.

Example: +10 Life Steal Any attacks done by this player will heal the attack damage, up to a maximum of 10.

Armor

Armor lore adds defensive traits to the player or monster, and reduces damage done by other entities based on the armor value.

Example: +10 Armor Any damage this player would have taken from another player or monster will be reduced by 10.

Level Required

Requires a certain level to be equipped. Items will pop off if it is not able to be equipped. This can not be edited at this time do it EXACTLY like below, ( with the ability to change the level required obviously )

Example: Level 5

When does Lore get applied?

• Health - Applied on login, closing inventory, respawn, targeting (for mobs).
• Damage, life steal, attack speed, critical chance, critical damage - Applied on attack.
• Regen - Applied when player would normally regenerate health.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use this? I cant add things...

Indeed! This plugin only reads the lores. Please find another plugin to help you add them. I suggest Lores, http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/lores/ but there are other options available.

Can you make this work with X

No. No i can not. While I have my ambitions to add support for other plugins, we are not at that point yet. Please notice there is no release, or no beta, and all the release files are labeled as alpha.

Hey XXXX is broken !?

While not technically a question, it deserves response. Please post these in the comment box, i will get to them as i can. Please understand that if you are not running a server with JUST this, and Lores( or similar plugin ) I wont be able to assist. PLEASE IF YOU ARE REPORTING A BUG, LIST THE SERVER VERSION, AND PLUGIN VERSION, AND A FULL LIST OF LORE TEXT INVOLVED.

Why haven't you answered my question?!?!!?!

I get this a lot. This is because you're not @#$%^ing paying attention ^^. I will IGNORE all questions that have answers already in the description. So if you ask something stupid, I'll ignore it. If you set something up BLATANTLY wrong, I'll ignore it. I'm here to make a good plugin, not babysit and assist those with poor reading skills. This may seem harsh, and unlike most plugin makers. But let's look at it this way, I can spend my time correcting typos, and saying "please read X section of the description", or, I can code and work on the plugin.
