Now, there are probably a million reasons why this is completely unworkable, but hey, it's just the first idea that popped into my head. And whilst we are here, you could have all sorts of perks relating to improving or tweaking this to your heart's content. Now raw percentage values look speadsheety, so just use a slider for relative weighting. Or burden 70%, fortify speed 30%, with the strength of each effect governed by the respective skill. So say, weakness to fire taking 40%, fire spell taking 60%, cast as a fire spell. This way you could still have the different ways to cast it (If the two spells had methods then go with the dominant or first effect?), could still dual wield it and it wouldn't be crazy powerful or broken.

Just as a (rubbish) example, you could combine two or more effects, with the magnitudes determined by your skills, as it seems they are now doing (Which I love BTW), but with the total power available the same as for a normal spell, in ratios determined at spell creation. Well, I got to thinking and I'm sure there are compromises out there. Fairy snuff, it's their game, they've made some corkers in the past and TBH for the most part I trust their judgment.īut I really liked spellmaking (as many others did) and if the feeling is the only reason.

It is said that they are not loving the feel that this gave OB, spreadsheet etc but in the interview I heard (Todd on gameinformer, think this is the most recent view on the topic, correct me if I'm wrong) he said that they were looking into ways to implement it but weren't sure if it was workable.
