This was Naomh's response to two of my questions I posted on this thread:
- CAN Ballistas or Ballista Bolts be enchanted with ATK Enchantment? Or a permanent spell enchantment, at that.
- Somewhat similar to the above, CAN a bow AND arrows be permanently enchanted with spells? If so, would they stack?
[2019-02-22 01:47:57] <Naomh> That's one I'l need to double-check, but seeing how it's a weapon...
[2019-02-22 02:01:38]<Naomh> And the general rule of thumb is enchantments on projectiles and on the launchers stack.
Now as for my input on enchantments, it would have to be regarding the question, "
Can an Ice Mage wield a weapon/item that has fire-element spells enchanted in them?" My opinion on the matter is "
No".
From my understanding - also from what I recall said by L herself - it should work similar to how an Ice Mage cannot keep their Fire Bolt and/or Burning Fingers spells once they have advanced from Mage to Ice Mage. Fire Bolt enchantments (the non-permanent one) allows the wielder to cast the said spell, which - ICly, at least, to me - means that fire magic will have to flow through the wielder in the first place. For someone like an Ice Mage - who should be full of the ice magic and is, by concept, opposed to fire magic - to wield anything
WITH fire element should, in theory, harm them.
This would technically render the enchanted item unusable by the Ice Mage.
Which, to me, is a small price to pay once you transition from base class to advance class, since you're gaining
access to more stat points increase at Level 10, 15, 20, 25, and/or 30
on top of bigger spells.
Now for an Ice Mage to wield a 'Fire Sword'? I'd say my opinion on the matter is similar: they cannot. An Ice Mage being that close to ANY 'fire magic' would harm the former.
Sides, these weapons with spells permanently enchanted in them should be for the benefit of non-mages more than to mages. An Air Mage would not be harmed by the 'Fire Sword', though, as their magic elements do not oppose each other.
