Javelin Rework idea

[wmdrayal]

@Tophatted

This is to give mages a close-ranged option so they don’t just ignore this spell for Pulsar and Surge

i use javelin more than pulsar wth

@Tophatted

Javelin should at least go through NPCs and players since they’re based off a piercing weapon, not just a magic blast so they should pierce through the enemy.

nuh uh i want to fling people around constantly, it looks funny as hell ( wind mage knockback build )

Nah. I like my javelin throbbing in my enemies

[sock]

rare is below lost, so rare spells are simpler and lost spells are more complex

You usually don’t fight multiple things at the same time, and things move around a lot and have a comparatively small hitbox for their speed. This would just be a massive nerf.

@Tophatted

Javelin could also be a grab move, with the caster thrusting the spear into the opponent, before throwing the spear along with the enemy forwards. Thats when they actually get hit.

This is even more boring than the current javelin.

The piercing javelin idea and one-ability spear idea could be used if at high magic levels, you could a spell to become an alternative. It’s basically changes the base function of a spell to either be the opposite of it’s function or a different interpretation of a possible function. I’ve thought of these for a bit, and this might become a suggestion if I remember to do it.
