Frost Scythe 03/29/2015 06:29 PM CDT
I'd like to see Frost Scythe return as either a delayed multi-strike (something like the two-hit PW, it spits a couple of scythes with a pause between), or a single strike that lodges (Can it lodge AND use its old messaging?).

It can lose the self-cast, obviously.

A meta spell for blasting out rimefang, but does not cancel rimefang with raw channeling.
(new scythes will form next pulse)

3 slots sound good?

lol sort of, I was thinking you would have to recast the spell to toss out another scythe each time.

Chaos element hylomorphic utility - randomize the element of whatever TM spell we cast, and 9000 new damage messagings to go with it!

Because making things die in interesting ways is a sort of utility!

But I dunno like...

-up to 3 summonable wisps that you could command to other rooms and would work like torches, air bubbles, or steps.

-Aether goggles - perception/arcana buff, and maybe a spell recognition bonus (you also have to hold your hands over your eyes like goggles to cast it too)

-flash - temporary blindness effects <--- evil

-Misch's Anti-Drought - room floods to make combat and magic annoying and murders instruments (I wouldn't mind going to jail for this)

Also it should make moongates to or from that room watergates. And you can drown in the flooded room.

Too late.

> cast

You gesture.
With nothing more spectacular than a soft grunt of surprise, a sepulchral Shadow Servant appears.

A sepulchral Shadow Servant gets a strained look for a moment, then regurgitates a pale-pink oilskin umbrella decorated in rainbows formed of precious gems and hands it to you.

> wave umbr
You wave a pale-pink oilskin umbrella decorated in rainbows formed of precious gems in the air and do a little tap dance.

A hilarious (IMO: must watch) anime (RWBY) from the creators of red vs blue, but that's not important right now.

What I was trying to show was using a scythe with a barrier of frost to shoot ice shards (with a potential knockdown/freeze effect [RT for engage/root effect?]) at your target.
