an interesting magic idea

[thealf]

i think that there should be a type of magic thats a bit different-you get a magic sword and burn or freeze your target when you hit, etc its like casting freeze but instead you hit them aswell,and then they loose health

[kriller]

Your idea is a little obscure. Do you mean that some weapons should have some magic properties?

I \'m assuming you haven\'t really played the game a lot yet or read around here.

There are magically charged weapons though who do a lot more damage than plain ones. I \'m also expecting that people/races will have \'elemental\' protection or weaknesses in the future. So basically your wish already exists

[thealf]

what i meant was, some weapons should freeze or burn like spells,
e.g casting freeze constantly drains opponents hp,add the effec t to a weapon

I won\'t presume to speak for the devs, but I would guess that something of this sort is already planned.  We have \"frosty\" weapons, so it\'s not too much of a leap to thing that these would do some sort of \"cold\" damage at some point.  Right now, they just do more damage that a \"normal\" weapon would, but there is no reason to think this won\'t be expanded on in the future.

Remember, the game you are currently playing is version 0.3.  The magic system is still in its infancy, and the combat system isn\'t all that much more developed at this point.

This is not to say that you shouldn\'t state your ideas here, just that many of the ideas people post are already in the \"planning\" stage somewhere.  Now, whether or not any particular idea actually gets implemented, and what order things get done, is another question entirely.  I like to think that the things said in these forums do contribute in some way to the decision making process.

im pretty sure that this has been planned... mostly anything you can think of has been planned lol... we need to keep in mind that this is a pre-alpha version... but i understand what you are saying and i think it is a great idea

If you wish to have fire sword you could just put your sword in a fire and it will come very hot, but you might have to be a certain lvl in something to withstand the heat and same with cold, this could have something to do with body temperature which could fit under agility or something

that is it, couldn\'t think of it..

To give my contribution to this post:

Like blessed weapons, hot/cold weapons should affect some races more than others, e. g. a Kran wouldn\'t suffer as much from a burning sword than a lemur a.s.o.

if you really want to get advanced... i say that if you get hit by a flaming stick of some sort you should burst into flames and your character should run around without control... and an ice should make you freeze and like an ice cine builds around you... or you just turn blue and move very slowly... and dark should like torment your soul making you want to commit harm to yourself thus making your health go down that way... therefore all of them make your health go down at the same rate thus making neither over the other... unless against a certain race...
