Since I only use Geburah in highmagic, I was wondering if I should change to lowmagic. and I know I will screw up the polling thing tongue.gif

Excuse me, which one would you pick and why!
Unknown2005-05-04 22:01:18
Thank you Shiri!!, you vote to!
Dan2005-05-04 22:02:23

Also, if you don't have highmagic anymore.. do you lose the forging ability?

As far as i know, there is no relation between Forging and HighMagic. You can have LowMagic and still be a forger.
Shiri2005-05-04 22:15:59
Yeah, if you're going a warrior w/Highmagic, you gain no extra tradeskill opportunities and are doing it purely for the skills.

(Which include an anti-flying skill that doesn't require a geyser chant, +1STR, and...yeah. Most of it's the same as Lowmagic, although it's missing the starvation protection and +1CON.)

Like I said, the only skill I use is Geburah and the rest seem useless when I use them in fights.
Shiri2005-05-04 22:19:06
Not a whole lot of the Lowmagic stuff will help you either, although it does have Orange (necessary for non-suckage vs Geomancers), yellow (not really useful, you're a warrior, you have godly health anyway), and serpent (arghage.)

You still have the sucky Indigo/Chockmah/Violet/Kether/Red/Malkuth et al.

in other words, highmagic and lowmagic needs to be upgraded tongue.gif
Athana2005-05-04 22:22:51
Um...highmagic totally sucks for mages...i mean totally...+1 strength??! yay.. sleep.gif

EDIT: i miss you lowmagic... sad.gif

Shiro...we dont get that option doh.gif
Unknown2005-05-04 22:26:23
I realized that!!
Shiri2005-05-04 22:26:34
Highmagic and lowmagic don't need THAT many upgrades, but kether and violet do for starters, and hod/green can be quite useful I'm told. (I'm a healer so they're both pretty much useless to me, but other fighters swear by them.)

I have proposed in three different threads that 3-5 new skills be added to highmagic/lowmagic that make them substainally different. I feel currently that too many of the good abilities are mirror copied: violet/kether, indigo/something, summer/tiper-something, etc

Furthermore, I think pentagram should be removed from highmagic. Void can be removed from lowmagic. Thus we open the option to enchanter/alchemists to market such. It just seems a bit silly to me to have options like salt/sulfur when there is almost no use for them. I also think it would add more flavor/balance if there was some sort of limit on how many times someone could shield/nullify (like tattoos). As it stands, it is a very viable tactic against a non-Knight to just shield over and over and over.

Shiri2005-05-04 22:34:51
Note that enchanters wouldn't be able to sell pentagrams on enchantments if that were the case.

...then again, why they can when everyone gets the thing free in the first place is beyond me. huh.gif
Unknown2005-05-04 22:35:08
I agree!

I just like Low Magic more than High Magic for the names happy.gif

Wellll yeah, and other not-so-side benefits like alchemy / herbs, +1 con etc too. Only thing I like more about High Magic is Yesod.
Unknown2005-05-05 10:02:34
I'd take LowMagic right away.. only problem i don't have the choice sad.gif
