Know I've seen it in here

Postby MadMickyG » March 15th, 2016, 6:50 am

I am looking for a thread that was about combining 2 or three of the base HQ spells to make more powerful spells.

I have scoured these forums, but cannot find it.
Can someone please assist as it will drive me as insane as a dwarf at a tavern with no alcohol!

Help me pleeeeeeeease HQians!

Think I found it.

viewtopic.php?f=38&t=2374&p=38756&hilit=spells+combine#p38756

Yay! Sanity restored. Sorry dwarf, looks like there's plenty to drink!

Not to adjust.

Just made 4 spells, one for each of the original elements. But they will require using 3 or 4 of each element to cast it (or caster meets lvl requirement which is something else I'm looking at)

Here are the descriptions:

TEMPEST POWER: This spell grants incredible speed. When cast in a room, each member in the room may add one attack per round for each member in the room when the spell was cast. They may move to attack another opponent as long as they have movement and attacks left. This spell lasts till the end of the quest, or until the caster dies. The bonus does not work in corridors.

WATERS OF LIFE: This spell grants incredible healing power. When cast in a room, each member may add one Body point every round for every other member in the room when the spell was cast. This spell lasts till the end of the quest, or until the caster dies. The bonus does not work in corridors.

STONE SKIN: This spell grants skin as hard as mountain stone. When cast in a room, each member may add one Combat die to defense for each othre member in the room when the spell was cast. This spell lasts till the end of the quest, or until the caster dies. The bonus does not work in corridors.

BRAVERY: This spell grants brutal strength. When cast in a room, each member may add one Combat die to attack for every other member in the room when the spell was cast. This spell lasts till the end of the quest, or until the caster dies. The bonus does not work in corridors.

Bear in mind, they may last the full length of the quest, but only work when there is more than one party member in the room. To promote teamwork.
And you need to combine all of the one element spell to cast that one. Probably add spell levels as I said. Or you need an item to be able to cast the spell that high.
Havent done the graphics for the cards yet. But have some ideas.

And will probably work on other spell combos. Whether the same as Golds list, or my own. But want to add some extra to the spells for the wizard.

I like yours more than Gold Bearer's.

That said, I wouldn't accept any of them unchanged for my games. Possibly your games take the power buff into account, that would be a different thing of course. So all of what follows is applicable to my games only:

Your stone skin and attack die spells need a different stop mechanic, like, after three rounds or when no enemy is in sight, then I would accept them.

Tempest Power, that would be one round only in my game. No chance until end of the game.

Imagine: Worst case you'd buff all Heroes with attack, defense and double attack and then they get a healing room for free? No, all of them need tight time limits. You give three spells and three heroes profit. That is already a fair deal. Having it last until end of the quest, no way.

There's a surprise. You said you weren't going to commenting on any of my contect! I knew you wouldn't stich to that. Here's an idea, why don't you keep your pathetic jealous comments to yourself and redirect that energy to try making something decent of your own and stop dragging down every topic you post in?

I originally had them as same duration as Courage.

Two of my original Skylander spells were United We Stand and Strength in Numbers, which had the same effect as Stone Skin and Bravery.

I also had the duration as "as long as there are monsters on the game board"

Just a thought.

And thanks for the full list Goldy.

I may need to get another set of spell cards. :P

Anderas,

The main reason for the buffs as they are is to promote teamwork amongst my kids. My son likes to take his Battlemage off and look for treasure alone.
And if you have seen the creatures I have been making, there is arason why they buff that way.

Also, if there are no other party members in the room, then no buff is obtained.
The Regen one is the one I like the least, but could not think of anything else. May be regen health when not in combat.
Also, if the caster of the spell dies, then the spells are gone. Means the tougher players have to keep the caster alive.
Gives the EWP something fun to do, a main target to make it easier to kill the others.
And I will have monsters with the same spells, just as abilities.
Each Chaos Avatar/Fury has the Bravery ability as a spell power.
Was thinking about some kind of uber-gargoyle with the Stone Skin ability.
Currently, we are just doing normal quests. When we get to the stuff I havent made yet, with Black Orcs, Chaos Orcs, Ogre Magi and Chaos Furies and such, they are going to need all the help they can get.

And I will get my Village of Chaos done eventually. Chaos Sorcerers turning villagers to Chaos Warriors to build their army. Save the villagers before they are all turned and get overrun my Chaos Warriors!
