Title: Offensive Spells
Post by newb on 04/25/03 at 19:55:46

In my opinion and according to spell power/cost, this is how I think druid offensive spells should be ordered (by lvl) and how much they should cost.

Jolt - Available at lvl 10 Mana Cost - 5

Nature's Fury - Available at lvl 15 Mana cost - 9

Stormwrath - Available at lvl 20 Mana Cost - 13

This would balance out the order of power they come into play and reflect a more appropriate mana cost for their damage.

Whne I first saw this thread, I thought it would be people asking for more offensive spells lol, but yeah this is a good idea, even if it would screw around with my two druids.

Stormwrath should be got first, as nature's fury is better (Can't use stormwrath underground)

Stormwrath is better because it does more damage. If you choose to train underground, that's your thing. There are more places to train above ground than below so this shouldn't be a real problem.

Nature's fury actually did the same damage as stormwrath on my old druid.

Yeah they do exactly the same damage. I Agree with Rampage on getting stormwrath first too, but I also think that Nature's should so slightly less damage to distinguish it a little.

Not that you mentin the damage thing, I make it all makes sense now, they just have Nature's Fury to make up for when the druid does go underground so he can still fend off anyone who tries to attack him.

When I had my druid (old Gaian), stormwath and nature's fury did a considerably different amount of damage. At least a 10 point difference if not more. Perhaps this has been changed though.

You call on the power of nature to attack a Troll for 60 points of damage.

You raise your arms, and summon a storm to strike on a Troll for 64 points of damage.

You call on the power of nature to attack a Troll for 59 points of damage.

I don't see much of a difference here, I couldn't find an orc to try it out on though

Hmm they did exactly the same on Gaian for me while I was using him until he was sold to you Newb. Guess there is a chance it was changed after I sold but it might have been just the amount of times you repeated the test. I first thought there was a difference but after testing it over and over it turned out just to be the large amount of variation with the spells, and max damage was in fact the same.
