The New Magic System

Lylic · #1 02-24-2006, 09:33 PM

First of all, I would like to say that I am glad the new Bomboria and the new magic system has been implemented. It's a good step for kingdoms. As I am sure many are well aware, the new system has taken away any sort of balance to the game. The new spells, while having awesome looking effects, are EXTREMELY overpowered. ONE single cast of lightning can drain my entire 431 HP. I don't believe that his was the intended effect of the new system... but in my opinion, something has to be done.

**** Yeah

I have no objections. That's what you guys get for all the years of "Magic is for noobs."

Someone level 61 phys shouldn't be able to be beat by someone level 14 magic. To be fair, the levels have to even out.

An even battle should be someone 30 phys and someone 30 magic, right now, all you need is level 10 magic and you can beat even someone level 107 phys.

The targetting system is a good idea. However, the whole server is totally imbalanced now.

Phys is now useless on GK.

Magic now owns everyone in a matter of a few minutes... and worse, if you get away from a particular person and their spell you still get effected by it because they have seemingly targeted you.

This "improvement" as it stands right now has effectively ruined GK for me and I know others.

Lylic · #5 02-24-2006, 09:42 PM

This has nothing to do with saying that "magic is for newbs." It's about being fair and balanced...

and I know that you Draenin can't possible say that this is either.

I'll test out the damage later. I'm level 9 magic, so if I can school someone hardcore with a spell, then yeah, I'll agree with you guys. Magic should be powerful, but not so powerful you knock out someone 50 levels above you.

Lylic · #7 02-24-2006, 10:01 PM

50 levels... well cubes killed me and he is level 15 magic... and I am 110... so that's... uh... *does the math* 95 levels above him???

Rick · #8 02-24-2006, 10:03 PM

haha

Serves you right for glitching to 110 :P

Hey lylic, I agree its uber-unfair, but face it. EVERY level 110 has glitched there. Dont complain.

The magic needs nerfed, and flaming aura needs to be restored. Why does Leuc get an uber magic spell that is WORSE than flaming aura? Its ***. Balor is just the waste of a god now.

Thanks for having that totally fly right over your head... it's not about the 110, it's the Lv. 60 Phys that has been made useless by lv. 14 magic.

what point are you trying to prove... because as you would know... I started to level phys after I got to 105 mental you idiot. I got to 110 by doing dust of visibility just like most others. And if alchemy is a glitch, then tell me (and everyone else) how that's a glitch??

And with regards to magic, I got hit with JUST ONE magic bullet with full HP (431) and 35 magic resist, and it still took off 152 HP... explain how multiple hits explains this?

Googi · #14 02-24-2006, 10:09 PM

Magic didn't become "overpowered". It's just that magic resist now plays a bigger factor. If your magic resistance is -40, you're going to get owned.

No. I have 350 HP and +60 magic resist as well as resist to most elements, and 2 icestorms kill me.

I know that I, as well as many other players, will be through with this server if something isn't changed.

I love the new gfx's, i love the targetting system, i dont love the fact that magic "hit's" you, and that it does at least 20x the damage it previously did.
