A QoL suggestion, with the core idea being rather simple. When If you find a Hecate Essence in the Dark Sea, but you don’t need to use it. Then you can optionally convert and condense the essence into a fragment that enters your inventory.

Downside:

  • You need 2 or 3 fragments (not up to me anyways but just for the suggestion) before you can use this.
  • The essence when spawned used is a one time use only, which is already the case with Hecate Essence right now anyways.

Options:

  • Use (Self): You use the fragments and like you would the essence. Will reset your magic.
  • Use (Placed): You spawn an essence on the ground for allies (or yourself). This is QoL to save time trading.

Edit: The Placed feature is more so intended to be something you use with friends. If this was made untradeable (I wouldn’t doubt it if it was considered), then trust trading with this feature is done at your own risk.

i definitely dont want this to be tradeable, and that placed one is the worst kind of trading: trust trades
but beside that ion think its the worst idea, even if fixing what makes it so hard to find/use hecate essence in the wild would be a better move

That is true, I was just thinking time saving when I added the placed option.
Placed one was more so a time saving thing for friends though.

This isn’t useful as a solution.
You still need to spend the time finding multiple essences to use the on-command one.

It will be when we actually have other reasons to be in the Far Reaches. We’ll be collecting these as we explore, it’s a perfectly fine solution for mid/endgame.

yeah, but like, thats a very advanced part of the game, also, if hecate essences are this rare, how rare will others of Hecate’s stuffs be? (shards for lost magic and gems for ancient magic maybe?)

Way rarer, but personally I hope that Hecate essence magic resets could remember if you had a lost or ancient magic so you can reset it into another lost or ancient if you wanted. Saves us from grinding them again if they genuinely are as rare as we expect them to be, and it wouldn’t make sense for our magics to un-mutate anyways.

imagine hecate gem 0.01% drop from atlantean king

(or maybe we just kill hecate herself)

yes, but we aren’t there yet.
a solution to this problem would ideally be applicable… right now.
Not two or three years in the future.

The best solution for right now is giving people 1 free magic reset for now, it’s enough imo to encourage research at least after trying a magic out. Beyond that, I’d rather not argue about other solutions in suggestions, that’s for DMs or in your other topic.

I do not currently want to reset any of my first magics on any of my characters but if I did this sounds spectacular for QoL (or if a friend wanted to reset first magic) and it sounds fun to try to collect them because I enjoy collecting rare objects

Good idea, would be better if you could just bottle HS and it becomes a regent.

17

What would it even do as a reagent? You make it a throwable potion and it nukes whoever you hit with magic?
