Another cool spell idea!

My idea was inspired by Balthamos with hes popular item spell 'Materia' idea. I wish to give him credits for that. So i think there would be room for both :)

In reply : "It's definitely a nice system and there is really much potential in it. I have thinked a way that could make it different and probaply better."

Basically your char is made by what items he have in hes inventory, spells or armor/weapons. if you have spells you are a mage. but if you have weapons/armor you are a warrior.

So it based of what you find: Spells or items on mobs, thats how your char is gonna be. So if you find a "fireball lvl 1 spell" you are able to cast that spell. So you can have 6 spells/items in your backpack. Ofcause there is a global cooldown. So if your char have "lightning spell lvl 2" and "healing lvl 3" and "a tunic that give you 10ac and 5 int" you are "Tank Priest Class". The hitter lvl you are the bigger chance there is that mob drops better spells or items (Cold arrow lvl 4 dam 15-20 etc). You will also be able to encounter special properties when you use weapons and armor such as "critical strike, bash, lifesteal or auras"

Another example: a warrior would be wearing alot of armor and a weapon, and the armor gives him str. that way you can define your spells and class as you wish. Though it would require to find such things to master your skills. Also your limited to only ONE of the same item (sword/weapon or same spell etc.) You will gain same amount of str, int, and dex pr lvl.

Though there will be one mandatory, is to have either a bow, weapon or a staff. that would definy your char class. so archer can shoot with bows and mage with spells.

In a shop and you will then be able to put points into str, dex, int pr lvl. from 1 lumber pr lvl you can buy stats from a shop. That how you gonna define your stats. And you have still room for 5 hero abilities and 2 custom spells. I have thinked to make the somekind of specialization in caster, archer or warrior. I think this system is going to be really dynamic.

What you think?
