[Official] Lobotomizer | Electrocutor

It's time to check how this balances:
Permanent Cost:
Unupped
Type : Weapon, -3
Attack: + 5
HP: + 0 (1-5)
Skill Value : +1, but -1 due to being expensive. +0
Final Cost: 2 

Upped
Type : Weapon, -3
Attack: + 5
HP: + 0 (1-5)
Skill Value : +1
Upgrade Bonus : -1
Final Cost: 2 

The card is statiscally UP, so it needs a buff anyway, regardless of method. How about giving it the ability to remove Weapon Abilities as well?

I would say add something to it, since it'd be a little much to change the In Develepment cards, and several that have already been implemented into the game. I was thinking make it like Antimatter, with the ability to remove or RESTORE an ability.

That's a good idea but i think it contradicts the name

Electric shock can restart a heart, why shouldn't it be able to do the same for an ability

Activation Cost of 2 quanta is standard for weapons (1 is +1, 3 is -1)

Also the problem is the dilution of uniqueness not its internal balance.

I believe Lobotomy is a surgery involving cutting lobes of the brain to deal with brain problems. I don't think there's any electric shock involved (correct me if i'm wrong).
So now i understand that it would fit thematically to restore an ability, however, technically that doesn't fit with what zblader said about removing weapon's abilities, but this is elements and i like the idea of lobo-ing weapons.

Note: It's UP by Theory. there's nothing wrong with the theory (as far as i know), but my point is that theories are not absolute. There are exceptions

Personally, I think it's a pretty cool idea. It would be unique to aether (bar perhaps reverse time), and it would only be powerful in pretty unique situations. A little boost, and would make quick lobotomy (the new spells) semi-useless. Putting the old master back on it's throne.

are you going to start a petition for that change?

I'm sorry, I should have been more specific. I was reffering to the upped version, Electrocutor. To be perfectly honest I had no idea what Lobotomy was.

oh. now that's interesting. how are electric shocks involved with lobotomy?

OK, now I'm confused  ??? The upped version is called ELECTROCUTOR. Please tell me electric shock is involved there, otherwise I am in terrible need of an education 

[Monox D. I-Fly]

Just one way that I can think of it to make it different with other cards that has lobotomize ability: Make it able to remove immortality.

I'd rather see Mitosis and Acceleration restricted to friendly targets.
