something like firestarter or spark generator that buffs the damage for those two types of magic. I haven't gotten anything similar for cold, arcane or acid spells. Do they exist in the game?
Arcane spells get a hard to block buff from Spark Generator. Nothing currently exists for cold or acid spells.
Thanks, but I'm wondering why the discrepancy? There are buffs for (I think) every every type of melee attacks, so why not the same for the different types of magic?
There are not, unless you're talking about generic buffs like frenzy, which also buffs magic attacks in general.
Well, I think it's because cold and acid have secondary effects more interesting than damage itself (encumber and armor removal). You can consider that a buff in itself and damage is increased by frenzies and so. Maybe an attachement that increased the duration of encumber effect? Or an attachment that makes encumber as it was before the encumber nerf? This one would be so nice hehe
Blue Manchu's hope is that in future content items will be introduced that prop up or at least encourage styles of play not currently dominant. Straight damage buffs are one of the least interesting ways to do this. Stay tuned...
I guess in this game melee unholy is considered a physical attack? I was thinking more about the warrior physical damage buffs like impaler, slicer, crusher, bruiser etc. thats good, i would like to have more varied build options. seems like it is very difficult to have something not electric or fire in a build.
As far as what you're getting at, yes, but specifically for game interactions it's just that, a melee unholy attack. It will interact with cards that affect melee attacks or unholy attacks. That's what I assumed you meant, but none of these (or any other cards) boost piercing damage or slashing damage (though they may boost a card that has piercing or slashing damage through another aspect of the card). So simply put there are not specific boosts for every type of damage, including many warrior melee attacks.
Thats kind of what I was asking, but I guess I didn't phrase it good enough. Basically magic versions of impaler, slicer, crusher, bruiser etc. Electric and fire seem to have LOTS of cards that give them boosts, or cards that effect those types. But theres nothing for acid or cold as far as I know/knew.
You are correct, there is not. But I feel from your response that you are not understanding that there are also many melee attacks that also get no boosts. Cold and acid aren't "alone" in this sense. Or am I just reading you wrong?
Have you ever played Sonny 2? There was a cold skill tree for Hydraulic that basically stacks Ice affects on your opponent and then with one final attack, explodes (removes) all of the ice attached for massive damage. Sort of like a combined Instant Burn/Purge. Cool, right?
