Tbh, I always had the impression that Ancients will be Mage exclusive because this is the case for other Legendary ancient stuff from other builds such as Legendary Weapons being build exclusive. Vetex talked abt that before.
The old plan for Ancient Magics being used for hybrids was an old idea that got carried over from WoM for a while, but is no longer the case now, just that he hasnt updated them yet (Vetex has a tendency of not updating trello or his docs when plans change until much later lol)
whether the screenshot is recent enough to prove anything aside, I don’t see why its really a big issue because Lost Magics will have a wide enough variety anyway, whilst most of Ancient are either fire or lightning variations
I think I saw that screenshot, but I think you misunderstood it a bit.
What the person asked is if first magic will be LIMITED to becoming lost or ancient, and Vetex said no.
I think what he means is that you wont be forced to change it to lost/ancient if you dont want to. Youre free to keep it the way it is and choose a different magic to become your lost/ancient slot.
tbh, I just want a way to combine two magics into one
then you’d just have to make basic magic scrolls and a fusion mechanic or something along those lines
it should have some sort of concrete upgrade system to get that stuff, like basic+basic+lost binding agent=lost
lost+lost+ancient binding agent=ancient
lightning+fire+ancient binding agent=/=blaze
BUT
aether lightning+sun+ancient binding agent=blaze
