Grade 4 Spell Upgrades!

In the upgrades I am about to detail, I have tried to address a few issues:
-The spell upgrades currently stop at level 66, so for all of the 34 levels after this, there are no new mechanics.
-Lack of incentive to level up beyond level 90
-Imbalance of classes
-Reliance on health potions for every class except Mage
-Lack of interest in grinding

So, here are the spell upgrades, unlocked at levels 71, 81, 91 and 96.

IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS OR CONCERNS, LEAVE THEM BELOW. IF I AGREE WI TH YOU I MAY CHANGE THIS.

this is a pretty cool idea but

this doesnt rly make sense imo

this just sounds op already

I dont think the regeneration buff does anything so maybe change it to like 30-50% increased health regen?

 

I decreased the damage for each. Grade 3 = 130% x2, Grade 4 = 100% x3

This is actually an increase of just over 15% total damage.

 

Theres already a Thread like this, which is way more popular....

 

I really like the arrow shield upgrade idea!

 

Thats kinda unfair dont you think?

 

so the blindness effect without no changes?

 

The Smokebomb sounds really good. Finally I could use spells with my melee build :)

 

very original idea

that would be more annoying then anything else

well lore wise i guess that makes sense it is after all a bomb

this would actually fix archer (and the other classes you have something like this for) not have anything besides potions to regenerate health

50% extra damage and basicly nothing else because blindness already does that

i dont think the duration could increase since 15 seconds is how long it takes for your mana to drain all the way out

so wait is that the cloud gets 30% more damage or you get 30% more damage

that's basically useless
and i dont think mage needs more healing

now thats just unfair

i dont see how "arrows" would make sense its a meteor

so would this stack? how long would it last? dont you think thats a little overpowered if it did stack, it better not stack

i think thats a bit overkill


i only did the ones that i had something to say about (even if it was little)

 

I've made a couple of changes, and now each class has an XP bonus spell, usually fairly weak in terms of damage, which should hopefully make late-game grinding a bit more interesting as you try to finish off targets in the correct way to maximise XP.

 

Extra XP? f*** no.

 

Most of them are really TOO MUCH op. ._.

 

I have a few changes for these, but you dont have to change them if u dont like mah ideas

Make it so whereever you are looking, the spin attack launches in that direction quickly

particles created exploded, doing AoE damage

Meteor*
i think it should be meteor shower, which shoots 3 meteors instead of one in a line

make it control where you can change directions to where you are going similar to ice snake III
either i think its a good idea
i once thought about it but i didnt post it cause i was lazy

 

I personally dislike the idea of XP buffs, although I see the point. Each class gets one and helps with higher level grinds. BUT think of it like this. Firstly, the % is different for each class, so it gives an unfair advantage. Also some classes have it on their primary attack ability, making it more effective, and some have it on other abilities...

Also Husbandry I highly disagree with. It's SUPER situational and really is not that useful at all, plus does not really share the theme of the other heal upgrades.

And what's the "Suprise attack" mention in Escape. It sounds like you were thinking of Vanish.

 

Honestly there's not much to say other than that's overpowered.

 

Nice suggestion but the 4th upgrade for escape spell is not very useful currently, you won't really kill mobs with escape spell, maybe give any mob caught in your surprise strike weakness? Or have it clear negative effects+fire when cast(for the caster only)

 

In the headless hunt quest you needed to kill a passive wither in the end tho

 

I've been noticed :D
You do have some good original ideas, but generally what @captainganon said.

 

What not you! its that thread by the guy with 3 posts and 58 dislikes.......
