World Spell Paths [general Concept] (65 Supporters)

Amazing. Really helpful to builds and "bad" mythics.

Alright, so I created a separate thread to post all the new spell paths I plan to make in order to avoid turning this thread into an even bigger mess.

Definitely. Looks great, and I think it would help to make classes more diverse at endgame. Could have a little money sink to reset the branches at each level, but I think, as someone else already mentioned, it would be better to have a soul point thing (scanning your post I didn't see anything about how to change the branching if you realise that you made the wrong choice).

One little thing: make the spoiler text dark theme friendly. Black is not dark theme friendly. Dark blue is just about readable. But black is not. Please.

 

waitamintue
so u mean u cant just use the compass soul point thing for this?
2le is a lot man :/

 

In order to reset a spell path, the player must buy a scroll from the Tower of Amnesia for 2LE. I didn't implement a soul point system for 2 reasons:
1) Spells paths would, in theory, not have to be reset nearly as frequently as skill points. This is because skill points usually have to be done whenever a minor change is made to a build or equipment roster. Spells, on the other hand, should not have to be reset unless the user decides to change the style and element composition of his setup. If the player is the kind of player who likes to test out new mythics every other day, then he would have to also take into consideration the extra fee to reset the spells, turning it into quite the decent money sink.

2) The Tower of Amnesia is really not useful at all currently, seeing as you can reset your SP just by clicking an icon in your menu, at the mere cost of 2 soul points. It really serves no purpose anymore, unless someone keeps screwing up their builds and needs some reset scrolls because they're out of SP.

 

well tru but 2le is still pretty harsh :/
and i mean you would probably switch spell paths as often as you switch builds
like if i was a tank mage and then i wanted to try being spell spam then itd cost me 2le
i guess its not a bad idea but maybe smth closer to like 32 eb or smth, and even then thats more than a horse :\

 

The price is subject to change, since I didn't give any real thought to the number. But, do note that spell paths are pretty much an endgame-only thing, and I'd say that 32EB is too little considering the amount of LE obtained at that level from quests alone. 1LE seems reasonable, 2LE seems reasonable to me too though. I don't know, I'll give it more thought sometime.

 

32 eb is way too little. 2LE is definitely reasonable, considering the amount of emeralds you from quests alone. I mean, that's literally the reward from doing THoT (The House of Twain. What are you thinking?), which is level 45 (admittedly it's a lot for its level). Considering what this can do, I would say you could go higher.

 

This looks awesome! Personally, I would make maybe only 2 spells changeable, so it doesn’t really take away from a class’ nature. Like for archer, maybe just implement these paths for escape and arrow shield, for example. Anyway, this thread is really well executed and I could see this work in Wynn :)

 

so if you get lots of emeralds from quests then lots of emeralds to reset the spell paths then they just cancel out. bascially ur saying you have to finish an entire quest jsut to reset your spell paths? and depending on how often someone wants to change their playstyle/build, this can quickly pile up. tbh you would probably reset your spell paths as often as you reset your skill points. the whole reason people reset skill points is pretty much so they can wear different armor. if ur wearing different armor, chances are your using a different build. a different build would likely benefit more from a different spell path than the one currently being used. 2le just to change your build? thats pretty unreasonable. keep in mind 2le is about the price of a black horse, and 32 is still more than a brown one. theres a reason they added the soulpoint skill reset option as an alternative to the tower of amnesia. 1. it was annoying to go there and 2. having to pay money to change ur build is just dumb. it says 6eb now but for some reason i feel like it was 32 before. anyway point is, you shouldnt even have to pay at all. if your broke (which quite a few people are) then your pretty much locked in a single playstyle until you can get enough money to change it (which admittedly is not hard but theres a reason everyone isnt rich (people are lazy))

 

Yea, well explained and gives enough information to understand what your saying. I'd love this in game.
