I see how it is =(
I don’t get why he’s so hellbent on making magic incredibly tedious and annoying to change.
Every other class can change their weapon or skills with a few buttons, whereas Mages have to go into far reaches for hours to find a shiny purple cloud to swap their magic (or pay 20 dollars now)
Why? What benefit does this provide for the game? Who does this help?
This is like if I added a system to a game where, in order to change your characters name, you have to scour the whole map to find a nametag that has a 0.01% chance to spawn, but you could also spend 15 dollars to change it immediately.
It’s just objectively bad and unnecessary game design

if I had to guess it’s probably because your first magic is what your mutations will be absed on, say ancient lightning + pheonix is a uber powerful combo, you wouldn’t be able to do because fire doesn’t mutate into ancient lightning but what you could do is get pheonix, hecate to lightning then get ancient lightning
yeah, im assuming its mostly lore reasons and for later game stuff that would be difficult to change every time you got a new magic
1st because vetex didn’t even intend in adding it in the first place
2nd it’s hard to think of something that can change the magic in comparison to just swapping out magics (which doesn’t make sense at all)
3rd probably lore reasons

sacrifice a part of yourself to the god of money to change your magic
I mean you can technically buy muscles and a new identity so yes.
honestly its more money going into ao so idc
Eh i don’t know if many people will buy it tho, normally you need one or two hecates in your playtime (one file), unless you really have bad luck.
So based on a small google search (about five seconds), we’d be sacrificing ourselves to Plutus?
yeah probably
well not sacrificing yourself but a part of yourself, its like the shrine of the drowned from deepwoken
this whole situation will be resolved when we get the Hecate Spirit Weapon, and they use their ability to change our magic.
hecate gel
hecate gel: shoot someone with it on and it randomly rerolls their magic and they lose all their spells
finally a good option against agility meta @ vetexgame
- Added Hecate’s Staff, a legendary-tier Spirit Weapon.
- Added [Magic Reset Rite Name], exclusive to Hecate’s Staff. Requires 1200+ Spirit to use.
-
- When used, the rite will allow you to reset your own Magic.
Just realized that this meme represents the situation perfectly:
Yeah, implementation might not be the way you’d like it to be implemented. But you’re getting it now anyways.

arcane community feeding vetex with suggestions and complaints for full release
dont know.
i feel pulled between “it doesnt matter” and “this is shit”. On one hand it doesn’t matter because its not like finding hectate was made worse, just that the only people that can make use of the change are those that can and are willing to afford it
On the other hand. He could’ve made it more common as well, i simply don’t see the harm in doing that. The gamepass is fine but if magics are supposed to be on the same level as fighting styles and weapons, then why is it so much harder to change?
(i realised that warriors whole shitck is versatility and being able to swap weaponry on a whim but i think my point stands with zerker)
this is my guess, maybe vetex didn’t want you switch you first magic so easily since mutations will be based on it
