Me and several others were chatting about how Earth magic could get buffed. @SomewhatUnnamed and @DubiousLittleTyp0 came up with a great idea, which I will make a suggestion on.
I propose that Earth should give the concussed effect, but less than the Wooden Club does. The Concussed effect is a blur on your screen for heavy non-bladed weapons that will be added in an upcoming update, though when unknown. Earth would most likely have to be nerfed in a few other categories, as this effect is quite powerful. Feel free to give ideas below.
This could apply as well to metal magic, but it has bleed already which people have synergies for, so this would be difficult to implement.
This would be added once the “Concussed” status effect exists.
Reason to add/change
Earth has no status effect of it’s own, and it simply makes sense. This would provide Earth magic the extra “oomph” that it needs.
if all the concussed effect does is give ur screen a blur then I doubt it would need to be nerfed in other areas, depends on the duration of the effect and how potent it is I guess
Thinking of more things with other solid magics. Unsure if Metal magic would actually get this status, but Earth should, I feel like. Metal magic already has it’s bleed effect, but I don’t feel like it makes much sense. Don’t know if it needs a change like this or not, but it’s more of a necessary thing for Earth to have. Anyone have further ideas?
Because he would have to add an entire other status effect, concussed makes more sense and it’s already planned to be added for non-bladed weapons instead of bleed.
