Primate Murder -> RE: Primate Murder's Suggestion Thread (8/21/2022 0:57:31)

I liked the new Chromatic Channeling spell, but it feels like it's trying to do too many things at the same time. I decided to try a different (and more mage-centric) take on a similar concept.


Chromatic Funnel

8 hits of 11% melee, one hit for each of the standard elements. Inflicts permanent Chromatic Disruption (poison; random element, power: 5*(132/109)). Monster can resist (Int/Luck vs Int/Luck) with -20 penalty to save. While affected by Chromatic Disruption, monster has 20% chance of gaining celerity at the end of each turn.

MC: While monster is affected by Chromatic Disruption, you gain Filter and Drain temporary spell (see below).

Costs 4/3 mp of a standard spell.

Appearance: Opens a portal to unleash a multicolored beam of light.
Description: Channel disparate elemental powers into your foe! Such chaotic dissonance would leave lasting elemental damage, though the use of your foe's body as a filter could be used to stabilize and direct the energy to both your and their own purposes.

Filter and Drain

Quickcast, 1/turn.

Pay 50% melee sp to gain 100% melee mp. Monster can disrupt the siphon (Int/Luck vs Int/Luck) with +0 bonus to save. If the siphon is disrupted, both you and monster take 50% melee Harm damage.*

*You lose control of the energy!

Description: Artificer utility spell. Siphon unaligned elemental energies from the object in question to restore mp. Warning: the process is delicate and volatile; do not use in stressful situations.

Each time you hit the monster with weapon attack or special, it starts Bleeding (power: 0.15). Monster can resist (Mainstat/Luck vs End/Luck) with -20 penalty to save.

Appearance: A simple woodsman's axe with wooden haft and iron head.
Description: A woodsman's tool used for cutting wood. This axe makes no pretense of being a legendary weapon, but its sharp blade will force your foe to split its attention, lowering its defenses – and some skill in dual wielding will allow you to inflict Bleeding wounds with every cut!


Cow-Felling Axe

Melee wind axe
-5 bth lean
0-proc, so *1.08 damage

Effect: if monster is inflicted with Unlucky, Cow-Felling Axe consumes the status to deal bonus damage.

MC effect is a quickcast skill. Once per battle you can click on the axe to pay 100% melee hp and enter Curse mode until the end of the battle.* This adjusts your accuracy to -20 bth lean, and all your attacks inflict Despair (renamed The Cold; -6 bth and MRM) regardless of whether the weapon hit or not. Monster can resist (Str/Luck vs Cha/Luck) with -20 penalty to save. After the attack, you become Unlucky (-39 Luck) for 1 round.

*The blade seems to grow heavy in your arms...

Appearance: A double-sided labrys with haft of bone and head of bronze.

Monster can resist (Str/End vs End/Luck) with -20 penalty to save.

Appearance: Well-built minotaur in a grey cloak. Bullrush throws the weapon at your foe, then charges them.
Description: May you roam without end, forevermore bereft of hearth and home. Such was the curse placed upon you by a witch during events best left unspoken. Forced to leave the tribe lest the curse bring ill fortune upon them, you travel the land, bringing your unyielding spirit and powerful charge to any cause you judge worthy - at least until you find yourself on the road once more.

FSB: a second skill, Curse Unbound. Weapon-type, wind, elecomp goes into boosting damage. Costs 50% melee sp + 50% melee hp. First use during each battle is three hits, for a total of 75% skill damage (150% melee). Second is four hits, 100% skill damage. Third and every subsequent use is five hits and deals 125% skill damage. Each time you use the skill, both player and monster are inflicted with Unlucky (-50 Luck) for 3 rounds.

***With deft strike and enchanted steel, carve open your foe's elemental defenses, allowing your allies to unleash a coordinated assault!


Appearance: An armored dwarf in a chariot pulled by a pair of dragons. On attack the dragons rush forth and the dwarf pierces the monster as though with a lance. On Parting Strike, the chariot rides by as Deed-Seeker delivers an overhead blow.
Description: Dwarven culture is a culture of meritocracy, and it is a harsh one indeed. The burden of expectation crushes many dwarves under its weight, leaving them embittered shells turned to drink or perishing on some mad quest to prove themselves. That is not you.


Record of a Hero

Earth shield
High MRM.

Effect: gain +10 MRM. Monster has 12% chance to gain celerity at the end of each turn.

Description: This shield is carved with the record of your heroic deeds, grown heavy with every great evil you stopped and every kingdom you saved.

Description: A weapon forged with your own hands, bathed in the blood of monsters and carved into the memories of men.

Upper Dantian. At the end of each turn, you lose 20% melee sp and heal 15 * (1 + End/VStat)% melee mp.

Open Mind. Each time the monster takes damage, you also take (10/1.4)% of that damage (basically monster gains Backlash). In return, you gain the following two effects:

- Mental Potency (+10). Effect is doubled against monsters with Int below your own.

- The first time each battle you're inflicted with an immobilizing effect, the monster becomes Controlled (100% chance of inaction) for one round. If it has Freedom, it takes 83% melee harm damage instead. Monster can resist either effect (Int/End vs Int/End) with -15 penalty to save.

MC goes into two skills:

- Empathic Feedback. Toggle, 49% melee mp. Gain Backlash (Harm, 50% damage taken). Monster can resist (Int/End vs Int/End) with -20 penalty to save. Form a bridge between your mind and your foe's, sharing an echo of your pain.

It can resist both with a single save (Int/Luck vs Int/Luck) with +0 bonus to save. Destroy your opponent's short-term memories, leaving them confused and with a heavy migraine!

Appearance: A troll in a vaguely-taladosian robe. On attack, waves a hand in monster's direction and it takes damage.
Description: Trolls have long earned a reputation of being clumsy and slow-witted, little better than brutes, but you've been different since the moment of your birth. The thoughts of others whisper their secrets into your ears, their minds an open book to be perused and plundered for knowledge. It was a power unlike any of the traditional Lorian magics, but it wasn't until your journey to the ruins of the Taladosian civilization that you found a name for it. You are a Psion, master of the arts once considered lost with the fall of Talados. Your mind is sharper than any blade, your body a temple of psionic might. Your power is limited only by your imagination.


Alter Ego

It can resist (Int/Luck vs Int/Luck) with +0 bonus to save. If it successfully resists, the monster gains Mental Weakness (-10) for the rest of the battle. Unravel your foe's mind with a telepathic assault, bringing forth fears and phobias hidden in the dark corners of their mind! Even if they manage to fight off your influence with hard logic, you'll be left with a better map of their neural patterns.

Unseen Chains. Costs mp of a standard spell. 5 hits of energy, each worth 11.25% damage of a standard spell. Afterwards, the monster's MRM is reduced to 0 for (HitsConnected) turns. Monster can resist (Int/Luck vs Int/Luck) with +0 bonus to save; the effect is treated as The Cold for infliction purposes. My mind is your prison. From me there's no escape.

Insidious Meme. Costs mp of a standard spell. Deals 1 hit of energy, 50% damage of a standard spell. Afterwards the monster is inflicted with Infohazard (renamed Bleed, power: 1). Monster can resist (Int/Luck vs Int/Luck) with +0 bonus to save; this is treated as a Panic effect for infliction purposes. You don't want to know. You really don't. Well, if you insist...

Meditative Trance. Heal 75% melee mp and make a save (Int/Luck vs Int/Luck) with +0 bonus. If you succeed, you become Enlightened (+25 Int) for the rest of the battle. If you fail, you become dazed (33% chance of inaction) and take +(25/1.4)% damage from monster attacks for 2 rounds. Perception is reality. If you control one, you control both.

If spells are disabled, the Riddle grows in size and crashes down on the monster for 1 hit of energy damage at -10 bth lean.

Appearance: A pillar of iron with a golden hoop on each end.
Description: A mysterious staff found in the treasury of the long-sunken Talados. It can shift size to accomodate the wielder and acts as a surprisingly potent focus for psionic powers.


FSB: Whenever you attack a monster with Int below your own, you heal 20% melee mp.*

*(Monstername)'s thoughts have the sweet taste of hope / the bitter tang of despair / the spicy bite of arrogance / the tartness of a plan falling apart

*You use the moment to adjust your armor and prepare for the coming blow.

Appearance: Lamellar cuirass over a mail hauberk with armguards and greaves. On standard attack, bursts forward to smash the monster with the shield, then slashes twice with the sword. On Hold the Line toggle, walks forward with the shield held high and stabs once. On skill summons a runed glaive that slashes so fast it leaves afterimages.
Description: Replica of the armor of the ancient guardians. Using a mix of magic, tactics and martial prowess, these skilled soldiers could hold back entire armies, carving into the minds of beasts and men what it truly means to be a Guardian.

Invisibility Cloak (revamp)

Water armor
High MRM with a weakness to Magic
1-hit attack.

Lean: You deal x0.8 damage, take x1 damage, and gain +17 blocking.

EFfect: At the beginning of your first turn in battle, you become Hidden (+33 MRM, all your weapon attacks and specials autohit).

If you fail a save,* you stop being Hidden and become Exposed (+16/1.4% damage from monster attacks). Hidden. Your enemies have trouble hitting you and are defenseless against your own attacks.

MC: If you're Exposed, you can click on the cloak to pay 44% melee mp.** This ends your turn and replaces Exposed status with Hidden.

*(MonsterName) hears your breathing / sees your footsteps / smells your cologne / anticipates your move!
**Use a small cantrip to create a divertion, slipping away while your foe is distracted!


Appearance: None. Attack is just damage numbers showing up above the monster.

Experienced Adventuring Party

Neutral element monster
Light and Darkness resists 50%, all others 80%
Average MRM with weakness to Ranged.

Stats: Str, Dex, Int.

Attack (sp): If the Party has enough sp, the Assassin sneaks up behind you to deal a single hit of high earth damage and inflict Bleed (power:2). You can resist (Dex/Luck vs Dex/Luck) with +0 bonus to save, or -20 penalty if the attack was a Lucky Strike. Uses Int in place of Luck for stats and has +10% chance of being a Lucky Strike for each status effect you have on you.*

Attack: The Necromancer pays 20% of the party's mp to hit you for three hits of magic darkness. The attack deals very low damage but randomly inflicts one of the following effects, scaled to your DarkRes: Panic, Fear, Blind, Poison, Fragile for 3 rounds. You can resist (Int/Luck vs Int/Luck) with +0 bonus to save.** If the Party has no mp remaining, it spends the turn to recover mp.

Paladin's Command: Each time you hit the monster with a weapon attack, special, or spell, make a save (Cha/Luck vs Str/Luck) with +0 bonus. If you fail, the hit deals only 25% damage. If you win the save, you take light damage worth a third of a normal monster attack.***

Holy Blessing: If the Party starts its turn with a turn-skipping effect, Paladin's Command is disabled for a single round, and the Party gains Freedom for 3 rounds.****

Curse Reflection: The Party doesn't have Boss Boost, but if it's inflicted with any of the associated statuses, it spends 10% of its mp (per status) to transfer the effect to you. You can resist (Int/Luck vs Int/Luck) with +0 bonus to save.**

Lay On Hands: The Party starts the battle with 3 charges. Each time it's dropped below 67% MaxHP (but not 0 hp), it spends a charge to fully heal. The first time it's dropped to 0 hp, it consumes all remaining charges to fully heal.*****

Last Man Standing (when LOH charges drop to 0): Reducing the Party below 67% MaxHP removes Paladin's Command and Holy Blessing, but doubles sp regen. Reducing the Party below 33% sets its mp to 0 and removes the sp attack, but gives it Barrier worth 33% MaxHP and replaces Necromancer's attack with 2 hits of darkness damage.******

*The assassin finds (y) openings in your defenses!
**Your knowledge of arcane arts allows you to resist the curse!
***The Paladin's blow forces you to pull back! / The Paladin punishes you for ignoring its challenge!
****Spirits, grant me the Freedom to pursue your will!
*****Paladin heals the wounded! (x charges remaining) / Mass Ressurection!
******Steve, no! / No... no... it cannot end like this! I am inivincible! INVINCIBLE!


Appearance: Three-man party with a paladin, a necromancer and an assassin. Reducing the party below 67% hp (with no LOH charges) drops the paladin, and reducing it below 33% knocks out the assassin, after which necromancer raises two skeletons to fight.
Description: This adventuring party has seen its fair share of scuffles!

MC: Each time you block a monster hit, you gain Mischief Managed (+5.6 Status Potency) for 3 rounds.

Appearance: A tiny demon wrapped around your arm.
Description: You may not always appreciate your companion's mockery, but your enemy will appreciate it even less when the japes leave it so confounded and infuriated it entirely forgets about your allies in an effort to hit you as hard as possible.

Every five rounds, Witch of the Woods uses an alternate attack that does no damage, but has 50*(1+Cha/VStat)% chance to give you one HP potion. If you're full on HP potions, she instead gives you one MP potion. If both are full, she heals 100% melee sp.*

Otherwise, randomly uses one of the five attacks:

- Witch of the Woods summons a think fog. Does no damage, but every attack on the field takes -50 bth. Effect is reduced by 25 bth every round to a min of 0. If used while Fog is already present, adds 25 bth.**

- Witch of the Woods uses evil eye. Monster becomes Cursed for 2 rounds, with the following effects: all points from Int and Dex are transfered to Str (to a max of 275), its attacks are locked to Melee, sp and mp locked to 0. Monster can resist the effect (Cha/Luck vs Int/Luck) with -20 penalty to save, or +10 bonus if it is a werewolf or werepyre.***

- Witch of the Woods casts Ward of Entropy. For the next 2 rounds, monster loses 120 Luck and takes double damage from all Bleed, Burn and Poison statuses. It can resist (Cha/Luck vs Int/Luck) with +0 bonus to save.****

- Witch of the Woods gives you Draugr's Draught. For the next 2 rounds, you heal an extra 25% sp at the beginning of each turn and have 25% chance to gain celerity, both effects scaling with Cha to a max of 1.1x; you also become Poisoned (dark, power:2).******

*The Witch has finished brewing!
**Witch of the Woods summons a think fog! / The fog partially dissipates! / The fog fully dissipates! / The fog thickens!
***Witch of the Woods transforms (MonsterName) into a savage beast! / (MonsterName) resists the transformation! / (MonsterName) uses its experience with lycanthropy to shift back!

Appearance: A young woman in witch's hat and brown robe stirring something in a cauldron.
Description: The surge of wild magics spooked all kinds of characters out of the woods. The Witch refuses to share her name and story, but her vast and eclectic array of spells makes her a valuable companion, and her herbalcraft makes her a match for any alchemist you know - though you're certainly aren't going to say that where Lucretia can hear you.

Spellcaster lean
High MRM with a focus on Magic
3-hit attack at +5 bth lean.

MC goes into compressing two skills:

Flight of Fancy. Pay 50% melee mp and gain +30 MRM for one round; your turn ends. Once your next turn starts, you automatically cast a 4-hit spell that follows the element of your weapon.

Level 0: Camouflage - Passive
Fade into the background, taking an extra moment to observe the gait and garb of your foe.

If you win initiative, you gain +10% Lucky Strike rate and +5 Status Potency for the rest of the battle.

If you fail initiative, you deal -50% damage with all weapon attacks, specials and spells during the first round.

If the monster is Marked, it also becomes Maimed (sp locked to 0) until it recovers from being Wounded.
