Aloyzo's Arsenal Official SUBMISSION Discussion Thread

resistant hide and adaptable is never underpowered. only mystical drakehide might be. and I don't mean the item is OP. just stating that it is on the strong side. why? There is a design decision to not ever give wizard more than 1 resistant hide, as I'm sure you know. why again? because firestorm and combustible. So I say this robe is quite strong because it bring similar effect to having more than 1 resistant hide.

 

I figured if I were to make an item on the strong side it might as well go to wizards. You might say that res hide and adaptable are strong but I think I've seen them no more than a dozen times combined over all of my 1500+ ranked games. I've literally never seen mystical drakehide. Also this item doesn't thin your deck at all. Sure, this makes your wizard tanky versus other wizards and maybe rad priests but at the cost of being near-useless versus vamps and warriors. A tough sell versus robe of lightness especially when you have to pay a token for the privilege.

 

For campaign it would be incredibly useful though. Against demon portals, for firestorming wizards.

 

but you can thin your deck with combustible instead.

adaptable is actually very strong against vamps

believe it or not, I don't often use rob of lightness.
If I list all the robes I do uses (around 15 different ones) robe of lightness is kind of the 4th or 5th from the bottom.

 

I stand corrected about vamps. I still think it would be at best above average for robes but not top tier due to how little it helps versus warriors.

 

Wyrmhide paired with adaptable would be cool in my eyes, resistant and adaptable is a certain design no go. No matter the third card.

 

Alright, what about Mimetic Armor instead of Resistant Hide?

 

that's fine I think. It's like the wizard version of existing Ewix's Evolving Ensemble which I think was designed with the fact that mimetic armor can still proc even if you're immune to that damage.

... Acutally, it already exists: Autowarming Spacecloak. Which I used quite a bit.

EDIT:
I misread "mimetic armor instead of resistant hide" as "mimetic armor and resistant hide". sorry. but anyway, the post above is still surprisingly relevant.

 

Well, this only shares 1 card with autowarming so I think it's definitely distinct enough.

 

How is adaptable not strong vs warriors? If I'm running cult of bejeweled elves I basically only have slashing and piercing, for a maximum of 18 damage before your immunities kick in.

On another note, thoughts on BlackVoidDeath's Lightsaber? http://forums.cardhunter.com/thread...stom-item-submissions.8602/page-2#post-109060

I think it's a really cool idea, it's just a shame CT5 will never allow that much telekinesis on a warrior. I think reworking into a staff of the magus-type staff might be a better idea -- throw in some arcing sparks, keep the telekinesis, maybe add in a force cone/force blast, and have the 1 Laser block and then maybe CT5 will allow the laser strike as well.

 

Could someone tell me the exact level and rarity of my submission, i currently cant acess that tool, but want to edit that bit of info in.

 

Level 9, Common

 

Cheaper then i ever would have imagined.

 

Thinking about putting a skillful strike(or whatever the name of the 9 damage hard to block card is) instead of a tricky stab on my weapon, does the current flavor fit? Any suggestion for a less terrible name ? Would it still be a double minor token weapon after the change?
Currently is: extendible laser dagger: 2xflaring laser 3xtricky stab 1x dodge.

 

Daggers are currently associated with more penetrating and step attacks. Neither the flaring laser nor the tricky stab would fit here. If you wanted something that counters blocks (as it seems you're doing) you might want to go with foils or rapiers, following the existing weapon lines, or something new but similar like a hooked sword, or a flail.

 

Fact:
You could actually swap in 2 Skillful Strikes and it would still be . (Level 13)
Opinion:
Flavor? I've never tried them, but I think all the cards would taste like virtual pasteboard.
The criteria seem to be (based upon Flaxative's judgement):
- A stylish name
- A stylish theme
- Cards that look good together
I wish I could help, but I really have no friggin' idea how he comes up with what he comes up with.
Good Luck!

 

I think everyone doesn't have an idea.

 

I believe Force Blast would fit the "Star Wars" theme better

 

Well, nothing to argue about. I was merely establishing a pattern for damage-type-based NON-SELF-DAMAGING damage-boosting effects. Of those, cold is the only one with a non-class-item boost card, and it's a non-trait card.
So there's no reason to be concerned over Unholy damage boosts.

Now, if there was an 'all magic melee +2 damage while in hand' Spellblade card, then we could start freaking out.

..In my case, a bit of a positive freakout, since I quite enjoy spellblades :'P
(Though I'm still pretty opposed to damage boosting in general. Give me +duration, +range, +bonuseffect any day
(eg, Spell Siphon: Trait. Each time you successfully block a magic attack, draw a melee magic attack. Duration 4.)

Not even him.

 

Before post it, i want some feed back.

My idea is something like this:
Boots of Progress
Rocket Charge, 2x Traveling Curse
