oh god a dnd nerd god save us all
Storm of Vengeance If the damage taken in last 5 seconds exceeds a 200% of your current HP max HP, shoot everything on the screen at once, resetting the damage counter. I think the drawback of potential physical reflect shenanigans and the part where you have to tank damage for it to activate is a drawback enough. Targeting Enemies lit up by curses take additional damage and are less likely to evade attacks. Requires investment in curses, so I don't think this needs a drawback as this is already fairly expensive to make good use of. Offensive Statstick Minmaxing Can equip a melee weapon instead of a quiver in the off-hand slot. For the stats, obviously, not to swing it at people. No longer gain magical benefit from jewelry or belts. Alternative name: HUNTER WEAPON, BITCHES Malefic Hunt Constantly bleed 4% of your life per second (while not in town). Disable non-potion based life restoration effects. The blood trail you leave behind drives monsters into a frenzy and charge straight at you at higher speed. Your arrows detonate killed enemies for 20% of their max HP as Chaos Damage. Technique over Magic Disables your ability to use bow based skillgems. Your basic bow attack gains bonus effect from attributes: Strength: % Damage, Projectile Speed, and % to Pierce. Dexterity: Attack Speed, Additional Projectiles per X points. Intelligence: Critical Damage, Critical Chance, Knockback Chance. Escape Artist When below 30% HP, go invisible for 3 seconds. Cannot restore life or mana while invisible; attacking a target breaks invisibility. Escape Artist regenerates after x seconds or after you reach max HP/MP.

" In that case you could (for example) add a max resistance cap of say 30% as a way of balancing resistance stacking, also I am sure when the game is ready to go live there will be more elemental damage creatures. And from what I know it is not a bug (immortal call) whether it gets 'balanced' (EG nerfed) is another matter but even without that if you totally focus on armour and endurance charges its pretty easy to not only get 75% damage reduction but also end up with tons of life and life regen. Anyway was just an idea... |

Hm. How would Mind Fist interact with melee AoE? And what would be an appropriate drawback (I am thinking no evasion/armor/energy shield). Hm, a minimal range would be better. More humorous.

" But then energy shield would be useless because when hp drops to 0, you die. I confirmed that I am still in HC league. Then I died. Last edited by Targuil#7640 on Jan 14, 2012, 2:33:46 PM

Contagious Minions
When enemies are killed by minions, the corpse automatically becomes a new minion of the same type. Granted that you haven't summoned the maximum amount. Conductivity When enemies take lightning damage, enemies in proximity also take 60% of lightning damage taken. Effect stacks when multiple enemies in proximity are taking lightning damage. Mana Frenzy All spells use 20% more mana. All Spells deal 30% more damage. Increased critical strike chance by 50% with all spells. Power through Pain Damage taken increased by 50% Damage dealt increased by 70%. Gates of Hell (Could be a support gem rather than a keystone?) When a minion is summoned from a corpse, fire damage is dealt to nearby enemies. |

Some of these are interesting. Just curious though, why does virtually every one HAVE to have a drawback?
