so true
Probably just actually manipulating spacetime instead of just pulling people around
Added two points relating to Sailor Style’s charge and moved one.
The more I go over the points that were added, the more I think that spirit energy is far more limiting.
Also, can we talk about how adaptable unconscious magic energy usage is when compared to conscious usage? (i.e. trace magic energy of weapons&fighting styles doing more things than magic energy)
from what we’ve seen so far, trace magic energy just feels like what magic is if you dont focus on elements… which ofc isnt how magic works lore-wise but ykwim (like “actual magic” is elemental magic, trace magic energy is magic that does anything else ig is my idea for explaining it)
honestly magic energy is just confusing if you try to think about it too much (and so are other things in lore). I feel like inconsistency is the biggest issue by far for the lore in general
Honestly I was chill with aura just being trace magic energy use before vanishing style was added. To me making yourself INVISIBLE is crazy, that could basically be a magic all on its own. And that’s not even a lost fighting style, I’m sure those will be even more conceptually crazy
I feel that Vetex should just make aura a different school of magic energy-use compared to elemental magics, not a “lesser” use of magic energy. Kind of like what people thought external curses were supposed to be compared to elemental curses (before Vetex cleared up they were just experimental curses made w/ spirit energy)

this could also prevent mages (or now elemental mages) from being just flat-out stronger than weapon/fs style users in lore as vetex has said which is another plus

I’ve always headcanoned that aura and magic were completely separate with aura manifesting from the user’s willpower (Which yes, is a thing given radius fist’s description)
Mr.yonder, if u are kind enough to share and answer, what is exactly trace magic energy for classes that doesnt use magic?
Honestly, giving every human some form of Magic would probably be the best thing for the lore. And for the off chance you either arent born with any kind of Magic, or just feel like it, you might become an Oracle.
Like Strength is Magic that manifests through and affects you body.
Weapons is Magic that manifests through objects.
And Magic is magic that is created as an actual thing.
as for “hybrids”, it just happens to mildly mix when you get parents or something; so if you had a mage dad and a strength mom you get a bit of both, but only pass down one trait or something. That or the energy is able to mildly transfer into another.
Spirit definitely needs something done with itself. Even with the case i gave it with, it should definitely be on par with Chaos. Honestly, we let magic do too much. Chaos and Creation are supposed to be equal, which is why Gods were so strong.
From everything we have: Magic energy basically allows you to modify any property in the world and its creatures to some extent.

i think this might just be dehydration or too much salt

From what I remember it’s basically residual magic within the air that non-magic build use to amplify their attacks
Is it like thermo heat bar? Where you use attacks and the heat gradually increase from the magic energy in the air?
It’s explicitly stated to be because of magic pollution that your character becomes dazed and intoxicated in the tooltip of the tool, likely a result of the conflict in magic energy between the host’s and the absorbed water’s (why aren’t we getting insanity from this too?).
On Today’s Episode of “How the fuck does Aura work?”
Veetex stated somewhere that magic energy can’t be used to directly manipulate phenomenons of the world, clearly trace magic energy isn’t actually magic energy but a third power superior to both that are present (magic&spirit energy) as it can achieve what the both of them can without limitations.
that’s not explicit, “placing the user in an intoxicated, dazed state” could also be referring to the drinking of seawater mentioned right before

All according to the non-magic agenda…
Like MrYes said it’s basically the use of small amounts of magic energy. Not enough to be able to use actual magic circles like a mage (which is what Vetex calls actual magic use), but enough to allow for all the stuff weapon users/fighting style users can do. Because it aura only uses trace amounts of magic energy, Vetex has said that pure non-magic classes besides spirit energy ones don’t have as much potential as magic circle classes. Honestly all a little confusing
Magic is almost always cast through magic circles because a god in the past made it a law of magic (ie law of physics but for magic). If one casts magic purely through their soul without magic circles or the assistance of a spirit weapon there’s a 99% chance of them just immediately dying. Curse users are naturally exempt from this however.
Magic can also be used without intention and work… somehow? Surely I wouldn’t be misinterpreting anything.
I won’t be adding this to the list since it’s up to interpretation.
Did DurzAcheron have the intent of reviving a corpse and instead cast it in the wrong location? (if so, how did he cast it over the whole planet, considering that the microparticles that the player was at the time were spread as fine dust across the sea?)
Did DurzAcheron solely rely on magic control instead of intent to cast spells? (if so, what exactly harmed people with his magic for it to cause harm?)
