I love all the ideas, in this thread, however, some of them may need some balance changes:
VictorMAngoStein Wrote:Deep fry: deep frys all items (including tasers, batons, and jumpsuits) within an x tile radius, making them unusable. suddenly the lynch mob that's been trying to kill you is naked, barefoot, disarmed, and surrounded with unhealthy food! Caution: removes cluwne clothing (but fried cluwne clothing contains painbow fluid!)If this were to only affect one tile, but deep fry everything on the tile (including worn items) it would be on par with shocking grasp/cluwning, and hilarious to boot.
VictorMAngoStein Wrote:flapthen's secret: creates a flock of parrots...with radio headsets. They repeat spaceman phrases and make it hard for the crew to communicate. Parrot squawks "Wiznerd in armory!"For everyone's sake, it would probably be best if the flock of parrots wasn't permanent, maybe they could be temporary, but hostile to non-wizards, albeit with somewhat low damage.
VictorMAngoStein Wrote:body swap: swaps the bodies of two random victims like a saturday morning cartoon. Cue arguments about which victim is the real captain.Out of all of them, this one is my favorite because of the kinds of shenanigans it would result in. If any of the spells gets added, I hope it's this one.
VictorMAngoStein Wrote:Magikoopa spell: Turns inanimate objects into critters. common object become harmless critters but you can turn the nuclear upload disk into a queen ice spider!Might need to be buffed to make it more useful. One thing that occurs to me is making items with reagents turn into critters "infused" with that reagent, though then the spell would effectively be the same as the golem spell. Maybe have the damage of the critter be equal to the damage the object does? Alternatively, keep it as is but make it able to transform walls (like it's namesake), so you may not get great minions, but you can wreak havoc on the hull.
Frank_Stein Wrote:A spell that turns fired projectiles (Bullets, lasers, tasers bolts, etc.) into pies and tomatoes when they come within range of the wizardI think this would work really well if it were a reusable spell that puts down a temporary barrier (probably 3x1 or 5x1?) and any projectile that passed through the barrier becomes a pie/tomato. It would also be cool if the wizard got a certain amount of tiles to place per cast of the spell, and could draw them in whatever shape they wish, though I doubt it would be feasible to code.
