World More Stat Options

The skill point stats are fine as they are right now. Adding more would call for more items, and a complete rebalance of nearly every item in the game. On top of that, the whole idea behind them is for the stat to be associated with a certain element. What other elements could they add that aren't similar to water, fire, thunder, earth, and air?

 

thing is, all the stats currently are combat oriented and a lot of builds are tight on skill points, so if this was seperate from normal sp then it would be ok, but otherwise i dont see it having much use :/

 

What if new powders were introduced? Here are the ideas I have: (If any of these abilities are like other ones, I had this source: https://wynncraft.gamepedia.com/Powders#Specials)
("X" means 'insert variable here')
Ice (Created by combining Water and Air)
Frostbite (Armor ability): Enemies that attack you are immobilized for X seconds.
Flash Freeze (Weapon Ability): Water and Air damage is converted into ice damage and enemies hit lose X% speed for X seconds.

Metal (Created by combining Fire and Earth)
Fortitude (Armor Ability): Fire and Earth damage you take is converted into Metal damage and reflected back at the enemy and damage you take is reduced by X% (You still take damage from Fire and Earth elements)
Valor (Weapon Ability): Damage you and everyone nearby takes is reduced by X (or X%) for every 5% of your health you have left.

Combining 2 powders together gives you 1 of the next tier of powder. (Example: If you combine a Tier I Air Powder and a Tier I Water Powder will yield one Tier II Ice powder. Same goes for everything except Tier VI Air and Water, because there can be no Tier VII powder.)

 

Make a suggestion.

I added some new ones too. (@Heika~ I hope it's okay with you that I put this link here.)

 

The parts of this not already covered by the Loot Bonus state would be very difficult to implement. Loot chests are fixed - a chest of a specific tier is set to spawn at a specific point. We'd need to overhaul the entire Loot chest system, as well as finding a way to display different particles to different people.

Could be abused by people maxing Charisma and selling items to less charismatic or lower level players. It would also be an entirely money-based stat, which isn't very interesting. Charisma as a stat really only works in games with dialogue trees, and adding them in would be a lot more trouble than it's worth, if you think of all the extra coding and dialogue that would be needed, as well as ruining the silent protagonist thing Wynn has.

(couldn't think of one for perception, could you?)

 

That would mean they have to change items like cascade Libra manablast and gravity drastically (dependent on how many)
