Currently, as of this thread going live only two of what have been dubbed the "Magical girl" weapons have a potential; that being, the Nova, with its incredibly fun Nova Eraser skill, and the Comet, with its beefy (Albeit questionable element) map-wide AoE.

So, today, I come with some suggestions for pushing the rest of what are unironically some of my favorite weapons in the game even further beyond. Potential suggestions, for the weapons that are missing them.


Magical Star (The sword):

Radiant Divide:
"Tear away the darkness before me..."
Requires a Rank D invocation:
Upon cast, destroy all special tile effects within a 3 circle radius, before firing a beam of energy 3 tiles wide that deals unresistable light attack equal to 150% SWA to all enemies inside its radius. Any tiles with tile effects on them upon cast are then replaced with light shafts level 25 (Or pillage.)


Magical Photon (The Dagger):

Akashic slash:
"A cut through time and space..."
Requires a Rank D invocation:
Upon cast, teleport to each enemy in a (x) tile radius (Please debate the range of this), dealing 200% SWA as Akashic damage. Then, teleport to a random tile on the battlefield. Enemies defeated with this attack are inflicted with Certain Defeat

Magical Meteor (The Bow):
"Let the stars rain down..."
Requires a Rank D invocation:
Fire an arrow skyward, calling upon the power of the moon and stars themselves as their essence falls to the earth, dealing 200% SWA as unresistable fire (Or light) damage to all enemies on the field, and inflicting them with glowing level 25.


Magical Moon (The Spear):
"By the power of the moon.. (Get that sailor moon reference, yes)"
Requires a Rank D invocation:
Hurl your spear skyward, pulling down the moonlight upon your enemies. Within a 5 circle radius, all enemies are inflicted with 200% SWA as unresistable light damage, and inflicted with Glowing (level 10) for 3 rounds. However, those who evade the moon's bright light, take 200% SWA as unresistable dark damage, and are inflicted with blind for 3 rounds. Enemies inside of the radius defeated by light damage are inflicted with Certain Defeat.


Magical Sun (The Axe):
"Sear this evil before me..."
Requires a Rank D invocation:
Raise your axe skyward, before slamming it down with the power of the sun, immediately casting a Setting Sun like ball (Equal to Setting Sun's max radius, I can't remember if that's 5 or 6 tile circle.) Any enemies inside of this tile take 250% SWA as unresistable fire atk, and any tiles inside the radius are left with the pillaged effect. Enemies also have a luck based chance to be inflicted with burn level 50 (Debatable).


And there you have it. The chances of seeing all (if any) of these implemented at all, or at least without some tweaks are likely slim to none, and I know my stat balancing is of course shifty on these, but this is something I'd love to see discussed, and something interesting that fits the themes of the weapons reached.

If you're wondering why I avoided any of these being a transformation effect, read the weapon descriptions.
Feel free to throw in your own, or rag on me for my horrible choices. I had fun with this.

Subject: Artist Seeking Work

This is from the Fleshmade Cone known as Dawn. I am somewhat difficult to find so you may need to arrange a meeting through this if that is how this device functions. I am seeking short term contract employment to provide various intelligent beings who desire my work with sketches and paintings. This is a task to provide me with basic murai for alcohol and supplies while learning how to make art for other people. The price will be negotiated but start at 5 murai for a sketch and 250 murai for a painting. Thank you for your time strange box and also everyone who can read this.

So, I was wondering: Could dungeon interiors behave similarly to camps in the regard that you can place campfire kits, feast tables and furniture in them? I think this'd be pretty cool to have, get people to set up 'checkpoints' in BDPs to rest a moment. This should probably only be doable on floors that have been cleared.

I think it would be interesting to have a bot that automatically fishes for you. Either through a tick-based system where it generates a small batch of fish over 2 to 4 ticks, or have a system where you need to give the bot fishing bait before it can fish.

If the former is done, it would just generate random small to large fish in the bots inventory. It must be collected before it can fish again.

If the latter is done, it is required to have some form of fishing bait in the bots inventory to fish at all. Giving it around a 75% chance to catch any fish would make it worthwhile, but also using the bot itself has some form of risk to it. Each attempt could be set at around 20 seconds each time if done this way. Giving it a limit of 100 bait to the bots would be suggested.

(I do realize there is a suggestion board for donation items, but I would like opinions on this.)

The Treatment sub-talent isn't working.

After battles when either myself or other party members receive minor, moderate, or major wounds the Treatment talent doesn't activate and the wounds remain untreated, despite having all 3 available ranks in the skill to be able to do so automatically post battle.

As far as I am aware there are no other requirements than having the sub-talent, a wound being present on a party member of minor-moderate-major degree(including self), and the battle ending for it to activate.

UPDATE: As it turns out Treatment is only working if you are the party leader and possess the talent. Otherwise it will not work if you are a party member and not the leader, despite the talent making no mention of this requirement.

Your guardian Spirit's sync mind skills are active outside of Summoner classes currently.

Dormeho has played the unwilling host to Black Beast attacks for quite some time, to the point where every denizen knows the exact procedure upon the sighting of these mysterious monstrosities. There is much room for chaos in these violent times, but thankfully, such actions are few and far between.

This time, however, the port town was the stage of a new crime.

When the Black Beasts struck during the night, citizens and visitors immediately took to shelter wherever they could; some to homes, a few to the shops, and others to Herman's Inn. It was at this very Inn that a Heist occurred.

A mysterious group, known only as the Unseen Hand, utilized the chaos brought by the Black Beasts to breach into the Inn, and shortly after, absconded into the sea with bags of stolen goods. The only sign left of their passing was a Calling Card-- a vague declaration of the 'justice' that the thieves seek.

With this larcenous act completed, the defenders of the Empire-- and those in pursuit of truth and justice-- begin to investigate....


[OOC: A robbery has occurred within Dormeho! Details are sparse at this time, but there will be a small event occurring soon, where players can get to the bottom of what truly happened at Herman's Inn!]

Shapeshifter
A new Summoner promoted class, the Shapeshifter, is now available. You may be able to unlock it in a specific Summoning House...
