whoa, this is confusing...i have no idea what some of this means so im gonna try and suggest sumthing(may of been mentiond b4) for the thing where casting needs u to type 5 numbers, what if each number ment something
ie- 11139=fire balls
1)the first number is the element of the spell, in this case, 1=fire
2)the 2nd number is the area of the spell, from 1-9 would be how much area the spell would cover. 1 would hit 1 monster where 9 would make a huge area attack
3)this would be the type of spell:1 could mean attack, 2 could mean healing, 3 could mean protection
4)the impact of the spell, if the number before this meant heal, and this number was 1 it would do a reguler heal, but if this number was 9 it would ressurect someone. If the following number meant attack, 1 could mean a small 1hit attack, but 9 would mean a multi-hit combo
5)this would be the power of the spell, a 1 would be a very weak spell maybe for finnishing off enemies but 9 would be the most powerful and magic consuming attack maybe used for killing uberdemon the great.
the more powerfull certain spells are, the longer it will take them to cast.
so heal could be 15218(this would heal a very good amount of HP(fire) over a medum sized area)
thunderstorm could be 37163(this would use lighting element in a large area as an attack 6times with low power)
sumthin like that would be cool and be faster than typing a phrase couse ud probably have to cast a few times and typing 12345 is easier than iwillnowcastanuberspelltokillallthemonstersinthisareawithmycoolmagic.
to help remember these combonations, you could carry around a spell book that has numbers of spells you\'ve used already or learned about, and what each number means.
well, tell me what you think, whether you think it might be too complicated or if it wouldnt work, or if u think it might be good
