Lost magic concept: platinum

self explo spam with high damage and size will become meta anyway why u think they nerfed metal to x1 damage and x1.15 size

When is platinum explosion?

Because a minority complained?

Because a bt member got killed once?

Because people can’t parry?

Because mages were using max size and power builds?

People can play around things like metal. Its why we have magma magic, Ileg, and sparrow thrust/pgale or any ranged move at all. Still don’t understand why people are complaining with how you could just punish endlag.

Hell, even basiclordvant pre full release could go toe to toe with most builds in the game.

Literally be having “THIS MIGHT NOT BE BALANCED, OPEN TO FEEDBACK” written very clearly and people complaining about how “unbalanced” it is…

YEAH NO SHIT IT I DONT THINK IT’S BALANCED THAT’S WHY I WROTE THAT… but still people treating it like it’s canon and imagining how it would be like in-game kinda strokes my ego a bit hahaha

nah Cutlass is gonna keep neglecting his girlfriend to give the player a useless vanity item because I think it’s funny :smiling_face_with_horns:

Don’t give me ideas…

wtf hes a LOSER!!! this is why he still isnt married. loser.

i want to make a custom but my issue is i cant fundamentally make a magic: the songs have already been sung, as theres no solid way i can be like “oh this is the magic ive created”

i have to understand what forms magic can take, what interactions it has, affinites, and everything else. do i make it overpowered to fit my own headcannon? or do i make it reasonable to fit ingame? all questions no answers

idk u can make art of them getting married if u want them to be married LOL

I think you can do something! You don’t necessarily have to go into as much detail as I did here. Even something as simple as just typing it out would make a lot of people happy, even me. :slight_smile:

IE: Be creative! Have fun! Go crazy!

How DARE you propose a magic that has a gimmick that involves extreme stat differences. Bteam castrate him

*her

:wink:

My bad

Bteam castrate her

Jokes aside, I do take feedback.

Tweaked the numbers a bit after some suggestions. Maybe this won’t be as broken in practice. LOL.

dont say it.. im literally the most nerdy and detailed about everything and anything EVEN CASUAL THOUGHTS

Magic essentially (according to AO lore) takes form of Chaos energy given shape and properties of objects/materials such as earth or light. However, unless they’re conjured by a Curse user (e.g. Wotan creating Keraxe’s navy out of the Wood Curse), they will eventually disappear (even more onset if the user isn’t concentrating on keeping the thing there)

Preferably no. Not many people will want to find edgy magic #510241092 that just ends up being a fire/lightning magic subvariant with some random other magic mixed in. Make it somewhat unique (or what you think is unique enough), and then just call it a day and see what people suggest for improvements.

one of my lost magics is kyanite, and its mohs scale depends if its perpendicular or parallel (this exists only in a few minerals.). so i thought of someway implementing that into the lost magic, of it having two ways to use it

im not sure if itd work gameplay wise

the idea i have of one is making it a spirit mutation, but with a passive that both affects the user and target

i also want to format the magic to use a special casting system but ehh im unsure..

hey so i just unfortunately made the best concept ive ever thought of, ill make a post later when i get home

Gameplay wise perhaps it could have better clashes with other solid magics (like metal or crystal)?

As for the entire mohs scale depending on the angle, maybe it’s better to leave it out unless you have a decently fleshed out idea on how to implement it
