Oh I see. A trident is a kind of spear.

Then shouldn't you make the picture a spear?
Because a trident looks better and trident IS a kind of spear
A trident is a type of spear, but a spear isn't necessarily a trident.
Haha, it's like that "A square is a rectangle, but rectangles aren't always squares" thing.


Anyways, I agree with the point that unlimited purify casts for the unupped seems too powerful - perhaps more powerful than the upped.
Mmm to be honest I think you went for too much for the unupped. Spitting out purify's like that seems quite overpowered.

I could see either a cost reduction of the card or a cost reduction on the ability.

EDIT: Ohey 500 posts :D
It would refresh all the preexisting poison counters, right? Apart from cost reduction, maybe giving it the same abilities as the upped, but with a higher purify counter requirement for it to start adding more could be nice?

Great ideas are often discovered multiple times. However that means they have often been done before.

Agreed, this is pretty similar to Oceanus (cool Greek name) but I think this is a bit different in that it adds up damage, too.

One last small thing, I feel that the unupped name should be changed from "Spear of Innocence" to something like "Spear of Cleansing". Innocence to me seems to be associated with Light.

Yes, perhaps tl;dr. My apologies.

Agreed.
I second this.  Innocence does not fit well with  :water .  I'd make Purity unupped and Cleansing upped.

A bit different is not sufficiently different. Furthermore, the "adds up damage" feature has no synergy with the regeneration feature. This results in the only difference being a step down rather than an improvement.
I do not expect to see this in the crucible.
