Title: New Spells Post by: Pwincess on January 12, 2005, 10:05:40 PM Are there any new spells which we should add to hero7? For example classes like the wizard/theifs could cast a sleep spell on the enemy...
Title: New Spells Post by: ndcent168 on January 13, 2005, 09:18:51 PM I think most of the combat spells are good enough: there is plenty of variety of ways in which we can fry our enemy.
Sleep would be redundant as we already have Dazzle, Calm, and others. The addition of some kind of summon spells would be the only kind of spells that are not already in the game in one way or another. Title: New Spells Post by: Pwincess on January 14, 2005, 06:35:51 AM What about necromancy spells? :P
Title: New Spells Post by: ndcent168 on January 14, 2005, 06:52:38 PM What type of necromancy spells would you be referring to? If you are referring to a "Raise Dead"-type spell, I believe that it would put a negative connotation on the hero. A summon spell could be used in a similar fashion and I feel it would be better fitting for the game to limit the spell arsenal to the "possitive." I can't think of any spells that would be fitting under the necromancy catagory.
On the same idea as the Druid, it would be reasonable to add shape-shifting spells and spells that would summon assistance from animals. The longer I think about this, the more I think we need better FIRE spells. Flame dart is just not powerful enough for a great wizard. Let's not forget about WIT. If we have a new hero, he will need to become a Wizard, rather than just a magic user.

Title: New Spells Post by: ndcent168 on January 15, 2005, 04:44:39 AM Someone's been playing too much Diablo II...
Title: New Spells Post by: Pwincess on January 15, 2005, 09:58:56 AM ... and Neverwinter Nights (my currect addiction) ^_^
Title: New Spells Post by: ndcent168 on January 15, 2005, 05:38:46 PM Is the Hero6 hero a Wizard or Magic User? What spells are available in Hero6? I just want to know so we have an idea where we're starting from.
Title: New Spells Post by: Pwincess on January 15, 2005, 09:24:03 PM Now that would be giving some of the hero6 magic away, wouldn't it :P
Lets say that there will be a mage ^_^ *hint* *hint* Title: New Spells Post by: ndcent168 on January 15, 2005, 09:26:09 PM Can you at least tell me which, if any, of the spells from QfG will show up in Hero6?
Title: New Spells Post by: Pwincess on January 15, 2005, 09:29:40 PM lol, the answer is no, no, no
I can tell you that all the spells have been finalised for Hero6 and have already been implemented into the alpha ^_^ Title: New Spells Post by: Corsair5 on January 18, 2005, 05:59:55 PM How about this? By the way, this is my own idea..kinda.
Shadow Bite This spell creates a microscopic black hole in the heart of the target, consuming it's flesh instantaneously. However, the spell requires so much energy to focus, that, if used while tired or wounded, can kill the caster. Also, the spell cannot be cast quickly, making it impractical when fighting against a large group. Title: New Spells Post by: Swift on January 18, 2005, 06:29:33 PM Interesting spell suggestion. It sounds like it'll be under "Necromancy".
Title: New Spells Post by: ndcent168 on January 18, 2005, 06:32:01 PM I'm wondering if we should have some kind of "Mana Burn" spell. It could be cast against any Magic User and have them lose mana and deal damage equal to the number of mana it drained. This spell could also be used by the enemy against the hero too.
Title: New Spells Post by: Jafar on January 18, 2005, 06:32:57 PM MP damage, huh? I like that idea.
Title: New Spells Post by: Swift on January 18, 2005, 06:34:21 PM I've used that spell before in WarCraft 3. Neat spell.
Title: New Spells Post by: Corsair5 on January 19, 2005, 05:06:57 AM Actually, "Shadow Bite" would be Conjuration. You'd conjure the black hole in his heart, not form it out of pure magic.
Title: New Spells Post by: Pwincess on January 20, 2005, 05:43:24 AM I 'think' there was a mana drain spell in Diablo
Title: New Spells Post by: ndcent168 on January 20, 2005, 07:36:09 AM You are correct. There is a mana burn spell, but is only useable by the enemy creatures.
Title: New Spells Post by: Pwincess on January 20, 2005, 07:57:35 AM A spell like that would certainly be useful against enemy spell casters
Title: New Spells Post by: Corsair5 on January 20, 2005, 08:16:51 AM Then there will be spellcasting enemies? Heh, there was only like two in the whole QFG series..the Centaur Wizards (5) and the Leopardmen (3)
Title: New Spells Post by: Swift on January 20, 2005, 08:39:14 AM Quote You are correct. There is a mana burn spell, but is only useable by the enemy creatures. Not quite true.Quote Night Elf's Demon Hunter's Skills Mana Burn Sends a bolt of negative energy that burns a target enemy unit's mana. Burned mana combusts, dealing damage to the target equal to the amount of mana burned. Mana Burn Information Mana Burn is best used against enemy Heroes. You can also use Mana Burn against annoying enemy spellcasters such as Priests, Sorceresses, or Shamans. Taken from Blizzard's WarCraft 3 Strategy Guide on Demon Hunters (http://www.battle.net/war3/nightelf/units/demonhunter.shtml) Demon Hunters aren't considered as enemies and you do have the option to play as one. Title: New Spells Post by: ndcent168 on January 20, 2005, 05:32:07 PM We were refering to Diablo, not WarCraft 3. You are, however, correct when discussing WarCraft 3.
Title: New Spells Post by: Swift on January 20, 2005, 05:56:08 PM I see. I thought you were talking about WC 3 as you had used the name "Mana burn" while Pwincess used the name "Mana drain" when talking about Diablo, and you didn't indicate in your post that you were talking about Diablo. That was how the confusion arose.

Heh, there was only like two in the whole QFG series..the Centaur Wizards (5) and the Leopardmen (3) There was the Kobald Magic-User as well... though you didn't fight him on a traditional battle screen. And possibly not at all if you were the Thief.There was also the Chernovy(sp?) and the Dark One cult leader. The Maines(sp?) enemies in QFG5 cast certain spells, as well. Title: New Spells Post by: Corsair5 on January 20, 2005, 07:49:16 PM I stand corrected. Thank you, Striker. I forgot all about them. Though the Kobold was a boss, similar to Ad Avis or the Demon Wizard.
There was also the Wraiths. They cast spells during the battle. |
