The Between Awakens

Staves & General Magic Items rework : update 2.4.5

Staves that create corruption now will be able to have the quantity of corruption reduced by certain armors to make the mage be more of an actual “class”.

 

“Hitscan” staves are being even more majorly reworked as to use projectiles, (or just improved hitscans in the case of the bejeweled wand)

 

Additionally magic items from different godhoods may have different “ammo” types

Alpha / None = Xp/Lapis/Durability

Betweenian = Willpower residue

Ken’rikian = Sanity, Mana, Mint leaves / Onyx

Sehnnian = Gold / “Sehnnian motes” *(I pulled this idea out of my ass rn)

The Nether = Durability & Willpower residue

The End = Health (?)

 

Many magic weapons have had their corruption cost significantly increased to allow for mage sets to reduce them back without ruining the balancing.

 

Any source that deals corruption now goes through the damage calculator in the staves class.

 

Staves and other magic items will now properly show the amount of corruption they deal on use.

 

Quartz Necklace

Now gives a flat corruption reduction (3 points)

 

Bandaged willblade

Slightly re-textured as to be less stupid looking

 

Void Pie

Properly displays the amount of corruption dealt (250)

 

Vexxing Pendant

Now actually works.

Changed functionality, now works at 10% normal rate outside the world long dead & can purify to a minimum of -50.

 

Ken’rikian paladin armor

Decreases your corruption resistance significantly as to make it much harder to use betweenian items.

Willpower condenser

Disturbed willpower now properly applies DOT of starvation damage (1.5 DPS)
