Combat Magic

From Sagataflwiki

Latest revision as of 10:00, 8 April 2012

Combat Magic is about buffing characters and weapons so that they can fuction better, most often in an offensive capacity. It deals lmost exclusively with small-scale Tactical combat, character vs character, but may have a few Spells that affect larger scale battles.

Defensive buffs are found in Defence Magic. Powerful buffs that are usually Self-only are found in Body Magic, and some element-based weapon damage buffs are found in Air Magic, Fire Magic and Frost Magic. Weapon- and perhaps armour-strengthening buffs are found in Earth Magic, and in Plant Magic for wooden weapons, e.g. staves.

Note that Combat Magic and Defence Magic constitute a Realm Pair, and make for a good combination for an adventurer mage, especially a warrior-mage.

Inheritance

Combat Magic is a buffing Realm, mainly (possibly exclusively; many Spell ideas are still hazy), inherited from Quest FRP v2.1 that has the Discipline of Battle Magic, but split up into Combat Magic and Defence Magic in Sagatafl, and in many cases heavily modified.
