Bad cards

[calm flame]

Nautilus unleashed is a terrible card. It is worse than glimpse of infinity almost every time. It is never a good move in advance pve because better options exist. Best case scenario you are pushing a non chromatic trap because if it is your school it will just get used.

There are quite a few worse versions of cards that exist in the game. This one thought never even has a potential usable situation because immolate does more damage puts on 2 dots and is fewer pips and you get it at a lower level I guess the downside of immolate us that you take damage, but even krampus does 630 damage for 4 pips with a detonate. So for 1 pip less it's almost the same damage and you get a detonate

I do think that non dot traps should exist. That would fix fires problem of dots and traps conflicting. Dot traps already exist why doesn't the opposite? It would be cool if Nautilus had that instead of a trap push

Ice Armor and Frozen Armor are spells that exists lol

[calm flame]

Yeah. But for that there is a situation where the worse one is better between levels 18 and 55. Yeah worse versions of cards exist. The main issue with those absorbs is that they don't scale with stats

[wheat lake]

one of my ideas for improving Absorbs is having them scale with Resist, just like how hits scale with Damage.

What if they were a percentage of health?

[calm flame]

An x pip percentage of health absorb would be wild. I haven't heard that one before. If I had to guess I think they will look at absorbs after the last beastmoon form comes out at the soonest. Rn drains go through absorbs which isn't really fair in beastmoon. It means that death forms counter ice forms when it should be the other way around.

I have heard this before. It doesn't make too much sense with the current resist and pierce system because resist and pierce don't have equal value. So the devs don't want too much resist because resist above 100 is insanely strong. And if resist never goes above 100 there is a theoretical cap to the amount of health absorbs could protect from

[calm flame]

If they change pierce to be worth an equal amount as resist though then I would agree😁

I think scald should get spellemented.

[wheat lake]

I also thought about this, I think that drains could hit absorbs, but damage to the absorb isn't added to the healback.

[radiant arch]

Are drains unneffected by absorbs?
