This is pretty similar to one of ZephyrPhantom 's cards, IIRC. Still a fun concept

Link Meow? Even if they are similar all that can really do is further balance the concept to allow it to grow.


I feel like it is very weak this point though. The upgrade should at least include a damage increase, as is it's a very minor upgrade, almost not even worth it

[Basman-1453]

Care to explain how does the chance to freeze enemy weapon work (say, a flat chance, modified by quanta (at attack or at casting?), or something else)?

[ratcharmer]

I really like the idea if a "temporary weapon" however, as zombies said I think the current incarnation is pretty weak--too little damage and too high cost.

[russianspy1234]

Depending on the chance to freeze this is either too weak or too strong.  I would recommend bumping the damage by 1 and keeping a relatively low chance of freezing.  Also, what do you think about freezing (disabling) enemy shield if they have one instead of the weapon?  Makes thematic sense, but is a bit weird mechanically.

A bit more different than I thought, but my statement stands.

But seriously now...

I love the idea of a weapon that freezes the enemy weapon, and it's certainly a good alternative to Trident for those not running .

I agree that it's UP though. Given that some opponents won't even have a weapon, its effect is a little niche. Since the chance to freeze isn't certain, nor even unique to Water (icebolt), it doesn't add a huge deal to Water's PC arsenal. That's supposed to be constructive criticism Since it's going to break, I think it should be doing at least as much damage as Longsword (-1 for unupped), and probably cost less too. Pretty sure you know how awesome Discord can be for a 3 weapon, but that does 6 damage

*Edit* Wow I edited this post a lot. My apost'troph'e's are all over the place today...'.

Updated.

Yay or nay?

[UndeadSpider1990]

Preferred the weapon freezing mechanic ^_^

You didn't use my fabtastic art?!
