Title: Spell Upgrades
Post by Dog_Pound on 10/30/03 at 00:05:09

I think there should be spell upgrades such as if u cast a certain spell so many times it will upgrade. Example:You cast shock 1000 times and it upgrades to lightning.

or you keep casting shock till you get to level 15 then get the chance to buy flame :P

Spell upgrades if done correctly wouldnt unbalance the game, and would add depth for mages... and it would give them a slight advantage of sorts...

Although I havent the foggiest when the correct way to do this would be.

pallys need better spells so I like the idea but it adds complacations

such ass if u upgrade spells u would need to get rid of spells like

heal and aid for pallys

what would be the point in having two healing spells for heal if one can be upgraded so there needs to be some work done with this idea.... just my opinion ;D

yes but then aid aint exactly better then heal cuz it takes more mp, so i guess it would work fine

I see your point but......surely (don't call me Shirley) if you cast Aid 1000 times what is that going to upgrade to, and if you cast that 1000 times, what is that going to upgrade to etc. etc.

this is what ive been thinking. You can upgrade any spell the worst spells will end up the same as the best spells upgraded but they cost less. each one would have like 3 upgrades say for aid and heal aid goes from healing about 55-60 need to cast 5000 times for the first upgrade. then it heales about 65-70 u need to cast it 10,000. Then it heals 75_80 u need to cast that another 20,000 times. It may be a lot of times to cast but it ends up healing about 80. for heal it heals about 20-25. It will lvl to 45-50 it lvls at 5,000. then next upgrade is 65-70 u need to cast it 10,000 times then upgrades to 75-80 u need to cast this 25,000 times to get this. So heal heals the same as aid but it costs less mp so its better this would be a pallys aid.
