NAME: Phi ELEMENT: Water COST: 10 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: For every extra 3 you consume, deal 2 damage to all enemy creatures, with a chance to congeal.

ART: IDEA: Anonymous NOTES: The chance to freeze is the same as a creature attackinf a perfmafrost shield, whatever that is. I know the wording is a bit cacological, but basically, it absorbs all the remaining quanta in mutliples of three. So if there's a remainder of one or two quanta, it will not be absorbed.

So does this mean, if I play this and then a bunch of dragons, etc, I can spam a ton of mass CC to enemy creatures?
Not sure on balancing for that, might be slightly OP.
*Doh* didn't read the notes right.
So basically it consumes all and converts it to mass CC (with maybe 1 or 2 leftover quanta).

[AnonymousRevival]

Yeah, so exempli gratia, you have 20 . It takes 10 quanta so that's 10 left. Then you deal 6 damage with the 9 quanta you have and the remaining will not be consumed.

Suggestion: The moar you consume, the higher chance to congeal.
BTW, freezing chance of the ice/permafrost shield is 30% and ice bolt/lance is 70% + 10% from each bolt added.

Hmmm.....but I think that would OP it a bit. If you have many quanta, you pretty much obliterate all the creatures that are not immaterial already.

This depends on how the chance to quanta consumed ratio scaling is set up.
There are several considerations:
1) What are the bounds? (max chance and min chance)
2) How fast does it scale
3) Is it linear or will there be diminishing returns (or increasing returns depending on the curvature of the scaling function)

The added effect wouldn't really make it more OP.
At 15 quanta consumed (out of a total 65) you're already doing 10 damage to every enemy creature. Will the added freeze really be worth that much? I'm assuming this counts as an area effect spell, akin to fire storm- thus immaterial creatures, which can be frozen, aren't affected by this anyway.

Agreed. I'm pretty sure it obliterates the creatures away.
