I have no idea how balanced such a poison will be at the current cost - UP? OP? I tried comparing this to arsenic, which passively deals 2|4 damage and 1 poison counter per hit for a cost of 2
, but it feels like comparing oranges and tomatoes - blowgun requires both
and
quanta, and its ability must be activated (which makes it useless on first turn it is played).
Arsenic:
2
|2
for 2|4 damage per turn, +1 poison per turn
Blowgun
3
|2
for 0|0 damage per turn,
:-1+1 poison per turn, Curare
3
|2
for -1|-1 damage per turn, +1 poison per turn, Absorb
, Curare (rough equivalent value)
2
|2
for -2|-1 damage per turn, +1 poison per turn, Absorb
, Curare (rough equivalent value)
There you go: Red Apples to Green Apples.
To me it looks more like red oranges and green tomatoes.
I don't know if the comparison with arsenic has any value here. I would rather compare it with chrysaora.
Thanks for all these constructive comments, guys. It looks good now. I will probably submit it to crucible soon.
Good point. Coming right up:
Chysaora
