Weekly Featured Cards poll - Other

Thanks Malignant for your help! 

Here's the article for Fahrenheit:

The brighter the flame, the hotter the fire; Fahrenheit is an extreme weapon that gets stronger the more quanta the player has. Because of its scalability, Fahrenheit is the only weapon capable of dealing major double-digit damage on a single hit, invoking the unforgiving power of the Fire element.

Fahrenheit only costs 3 for either version (upgraded or not), making it fairly efficient as a damage dealer. While it may not have any unique abilities compared to the other rare weapons, Fahrenheit focuses on one crucial tactic: damage. If a player has Fahrenheit out without any additional quanta in their pool, Fahrenheit does 4 (upgraded, 5) damage – a decent amount compared to many of the other weapons at the level. Eventually, given enough -generating pillars, pendulums, and other cards, the damage begins to increase steadily based on the quanta you have, dealing more damage each turn. For every 5 quanta the player has within their quanta pool, Fahrenheit will also deal an additional point of damage. With 24 for example, a player would be dealing an additional 4 damage that turn, boosting the weapon to have up to 8-9 damage total. Given enough -generating cards, Fahrenheit can easily become a relentless tool to wither the opponent’s health away.

One of the main cards Fahrenheit is usually paired up with is Fire Bolt. Since the damage from Fire Bolt scales with quanta as well, both cards can be paired together to deliver a deadly one-hit (where all the damage is dealt within a single turn) K.O., although this type of damage requires some thoughtful calculations in order to ensure that enough damage can be dealt within that turn. The following table provides a basic list of values for how much damage Fahrenheit will deal given certain amounts of quanta:

Fire Quanta	BONUS Damage
0~4	0
5~9	1
10~14	2
15~19	3
20~24	4
25~29	5
30~34	6
35~39	7
40~44	8
45~49	9
50~54	10

Brimstone Eaters (the upgraded form of Ash Eaters) are also incredibly synergetic with Fahrenheit. While the non-upped form of the creature can serve as Cremation fodder to quickly generate , Brimstone Eater’s ability will trigger and generate 1 each turn (as long as it isn’t frozen or delayed) after attacking. Although these creatures are extremely delicate (1 HP), they often can shave off modest amounts of HP (2 ATK each turn) from the opponent in conjunction with Fahrenheit, while empowering it at the same time.

Crusaders and Flying Weapon are also two other cards that can allow players to deal absurd amounts of damage with the Fiery skill alone – because both of these cards allow one to theoretically have multiple Fahrenheit weapons on the field at once, the amount of damage dramatically increases for both of these cards, although shields and rewind counter these strategies easily.

Because of its nature, Fahrenheit is generally suited for decks that focus on accumulating quanta as quickly as possible, and thus, is a staple in many mono-fire decks or duos that focus on the Fire element. If you find yourself fighting one, it’s advised that you either remove it as quickly as possible before the heat becomes overwhelming to deal with.


Quick Facts:
Fahrenheit will deal 4 (5 upgraded) damage as a minimum
Its ability, ‘Fiery’, scales with quanta – for every 5 quanta one possesses, the weapon deals an additional point of damage
Fahrenheit has no limit into how much damage it can deal

WARNING: The next week's poll will be a non-elemental (special) version of some of the other cards. In other words, generic articles for one or more of the following cards (Pillars, Pendulums, All Nymphs, SoR, SoD, and SoG) may be written and put up instead.

[ZephyrPhantom]

Bonus cards, eh? Well, I think the pendulums need some love. We already know what Dragons and Nymphs are thank you very much.

[astraldragoon]

dragon's up here 

[Higurashi]

Shards would be cool, but since they're not an option; pendies. This time I'll look on the article as an educational tool, and spreading knowledge of this nifty tool would be beneficial.

[Korugar]

Vote dragons!

[Bloodshadow]

Bonus card, eh? That wasn't a part of my original idea, so I don't know what you should put on the front page. Do you put a random Nymph/Dragon or something?

Pillars and Pendulums are fine, Dragons are meh, but Nymphs... I think each Nymph is unique enough to deserve its own article. Unless you write a generic article about the rarity of Nymphs or something, but that wouldn't fit in the idea of weekly featured cards.

Actually, NONE of the these cards are going to be featured. Two reasons why:

1. These articles may have decks and general synergy cards that go well with them, but they will be so short that they aren't really worthy of being front page. Pillars and Pendulums are practically straight-forward; Dragons are fairly easy to talk about, given that most have the same non-upped (or upgraded) stats. Nymphs might be the most 'unique', but for the most part, a link will provided to the alchemy spell in question to give the reader more accurate details of their skill.

I figure that I need a 'short break' from writing all these intense articles without them even being featured. The front page of the wiki is still on Chimera, and we're already on Water cards. That's pretty far down the list, so when SG (or someone) comes back and redoes the front page code to allow easier editing for the featured cards/main articles, the featured cards will start off again. ^^;
But yeah, this wasn't really 'part of the plan', but oh well. Sorry about that Blood. ^^;

Shards would be cool, but since they're not an option; pendies. This time I'll look on the article as an educational tool, and spreading knowledge of this nifty tool would be beneficial.

If there was another bonus poll (...possibly sooner than one would think), All shards would be an option.

Oh well, it's not like I have a say in this anymore. You've officially taken over the project, so you can do whatever you want. You're doing a good job.

Hm, I might write an article or two sometimes if I feel like it. Not now though... Still feeling lazy depressed.

[DrunkDestroyer]

Nymphs wouldn't be a good option for the article IMO.


Unless...
Nymphs are rare. Very rare. Want one? Spin the oracle. Didn't get one? Try again the next day.
"Yes but can I just get one from..." No.
"I got that but" No.
"I heard something about tournament wins!" Yes. But for you, no. Unless the rest of the worlds internet crashes. In that case, hurrah!
"Zanz should make them T50 farmable so even the casual players can get them!" No.

If you have ever bought a lottery ticket, played a slot machine IRL, please do not complain about the nymph mechanism.
This article has nothing to do with the fact that I have 20.

Please enjoy your stay
And seriously, even my one sucked. So vote for those unloved dragons!

I think Dragons are unique enough to have an individual feature for each of them. I'd agree that Pillars and Pendulums aren't interesting enough to each have their own feature, and Nymphs can be directed to their respective alchemy card for reference, but each Dragon has its own talking points and strategies.

Pendulums unique mechanic needs a featuring

Some of the Dragons have their own unique characteristics (e.g. Ruby Dragon for rushing, and Phase Dragon is immortal), but most of the other Dragons are pretty similar... I wouldn't feature each Dragon individually.
