hey pals lets take this outside
@stocksounds @mrhyperspace
or just get a mod to move it.
no one wants to get a million different notifications for your stupid magic discussion in a thread about updates 
so get a mod to move it.
it definitely synergises, but i don’t think the tiny rocks themselves counts as a heat magic since if you let it cool down to room temperature they feel neutral, whereas if you’re drenched in room temperature water you still feel cold
Epic embed fail
Either way how the fuck are acid and light heat magics they do literally nothing to suggest that they would be
light if it was accurate could be heat based and shadow cold but they dont really work like that ingame so like idk, they are moreso conceptually light and shadow
acids produce heat when they dissolve stuff, and almost all heat on earth is gotten from sunlight, light does heat stuff up when it’s absorbed
Alright but we are talking about magic temperature affinities not real life tempuratures
yea but the magics are based off the real life object, they should follow it in lore
Inside of the game considering game mechanics, no they would not be, however if the magics were realistic it could be argued
maybe the different variants of sand, water, and wind should give different temperature affinities
I dunno, canonically humans named the magics based on what they thought it imitated. It’s entirely possible acid magic is just some other corrosive substance for example
Oh ok
Still what about light
Surely if Sand is a Heat Magic, then so are Light and Lightning.
Light’s only reasonable source of damage is through heat, explaining why it does so little damage by not being heat-focused directly. Ever heard of a heat lamp?
not heat adjacent mechanically, it only really synergizes with crystal and does less against shadow
Radiation pressure
We are NOT getting radiation pressure from a light source before we get it being hot.
It does have a single cold synergy with Frozen as your screenshot shows but I doubt you’re getting that normally unless the opponent is in Frostmill and you have Water Magic for some ungodly reason. (acid and base mage…)
