Talk:Spellweaver

oooo

I really like where you're going here...

To build on that, we could have words for "greater" or "massive" to get larger heals / damage / resistance / weakness.

My only concern with that would be that when they earn the "massive" word, they suddenly could have massive resistance / heal / damage all at once.

I think it would result in some new spells, but only where we need to map word a combination to an affect. hmm... unless... I have thoughts forming for an abstracted magic system that could calculate how a spell works based on the word combination.

"lower fire protection"

we could even create quests to earn words, and have rare words that were only available during a mud-wide quest or something... like getting a scroll that when recited will teach you the word...

Well, if massive resistances are a concern - this type of class doesn't necessarily have to receive the words for resistance .. we could structure it so that it's damage/healing oriented (or just damage).

If we wanted to get really wacky - we could allow for branches of weavers - damage OR heal (not both). OR OR OR - make the languages learned inherrantly tied to your underlying class. Sorcs/Wizards would have similar words to learn, Clerics/Priests would be similar - but unable to learn most of the Sor/Wiz words, and Necros would be their own beast...
