Prometheus acrimony in lore

Arcane odyssey has been my favorite game from when I discovered it, at its release.
The world, the story, the system.
Everything is great and I have always a lot of fun playing it.

The one thing though that I always had beefs with is the fact that one who is not born with magic will never be able to learn it, whatever he does.

Now, there have been a lot of changes in lore lately and a LOT is still unknown, practically almost everything, but the literal description of magic is very clear on it:
“Only those lucky enough to be born with it are able to use it”
Absolutely clear. No way around it.

But…

What if someone was “born again”?

Some time ago I was reading in the forums and I seem to recall having found someone saying that the acrimony has no effect (???) in lore since there are no classes in AU and everyone is free to learn what they want.

But what if the acrimony in AU gave the possibility to awaken magic to those born without it?

I’ll leave this here, do what you want with it.
But at the next QnA I’ll surely try to ask for info.

Acrimony is funny plant I got in my garden

It’s just magic irradiated Zaza and when we smoke it we get so high we forget everything we’ve learned

it has been confirmed by vetex that prometheus acrimony is not an item in lore

it just doesn’t exist in lore

(that’s exactly what I just said)

True but The blue-purple ish mist is canon from what vetex said

yeah and…?

purple mist = change magic

person with no magic = breathes mist

no magic person = gets magic?

@Flare is this one of those “color fixers” I’ve heard so much about

No.

bro:
trade currency
person with no currency: trades nothing for currency?

there’s nothing to trade for that magic

then… what’s stopping them from just getting a magic from inhaling magical mist?

why are you bringing economy into this little bro :skull:

I said that there’s nothing to replace

changing magics means changing SOMETHING

in this case there’s no “thing” to change

ok but like

why the hell would magic dust found in the dark sea not grant someone a magic if they were to come into contact without for the first time

like logically that makes absolutely no sense considering how the dark sea basically is a giant, wet, pseudo-alive example as to how magic can affect living beings, regardless of if they had magic or not.

Well, a line of coke that changes your element isn’t going to do anything if you don’t have one.

why can’t the line of coke just give you a magic though

oh my god how are you people this dense

what is hard to understand the concept of magic cocaine = magic for nonmagic users

I’ll try to explain this again. If you were to go out and buy a hair dye to make your hair green, it wouldn’t work if you were bald. Same goes for Magic cocaine; if you change your element, but you don’t have one, it won’t work.

bro

it replaces your magic

you don’t have anything to replace

it lets you change the color of a weapons aura :100:
