Why does light magic not have healing properties

That raises the question, why does shadow give drained?

97

Minds were always there in humans, they were never created. Magic circles were a gift by Prometheus, to prevent people from killing themselves as they’d used magic w/ their souls.

Light =/= Life/Holy Light

it has nothing to do with healing

Phoenix is literally the biggest symbol of rebirth and life there is

no prometheus gifted humans magic, not magic circles. i think prometheus was dead long before magic circles became a thing

No not at all

none of these have healing properties because light does not inhernetly heal in the arcane universe.

Just because it works that way in other bits of media doesn’t mean it works like that in AO

Should the beams of light virtues attack you with in Ultrakill heal you? The Holy spell doesnt heal your enemies in final fantasy. Light is not inherently healing lol.

I mentioned it being a base magic because allowing one of those to work as a healing magic would make balancing hell.

if you get a cut does it heal when you shine a flashlight on it

So how does the mind work is it based off a random magic?

104

If you are born with your first mind unlocked, you will be given access to one the base magics at random

105

And what about second mind?

106

Also now I’m confused since the some of the basic magics used to be not so basic.

107

What do you mean by this?

108

have you played ao to the end of the current story?

109

The only occurance of this is Vetex’s OC in AA. I don’t think this is canon anymore

110

I think that the lore explanation is that humans now have a better control of magic, but I’m probably saying some random bullshit

111

Well that depends if you want to count stuff like frostmetal, storm, and equinox as magic combinations or something entirely new

112

I completely forgor those ones.
I think the only canon man-made magic is equinox (at least if the AA webtoon is canon)

113

It’s more so the war seas just being significantly more advance in terms of magic control due to the constant, ya know, wars

114

it’s not

115

Then I guess we’ll have to wait a canon explanation then
