A Journey through Consciousness - Facing Alpha Nemesis - BiMonthly Log #15 (no video) - 16.05.2024 - 30.05.2024 (BiMonthly Updated)

<> RULE: All units generate 1 Token on using Attacks. Tokens are needed when Consuming effects from foes (Consumable effects).

<> All units gain Utility Points (by default: 1 / Phase). This will be the limit of using Sacrifice / Consume per round. Consuming effects on foes also requires 1 Token.

<> Along the 4 existing Combo Effects: Assimilator, Disruptor, Breaker, Nullifier (these were in the game ideas).

  >> Combo Assimilator will grant caster the Aura of the MAIN Field of the tile they are in.

  >> Combo Disruptor will apply only the "Foe" effect of the Combo (no ally and self gain).

  >> Combo Breaker will apply only the self and ally effects as well as discard enemy's Aura(s).

  >> Combo Nullifier will apply all effects normally but will reset all Combo Fields in the affected tiles.

  >> Combo Resonator (NEW) will grant caster an Aura of choice of the tile they are in (main or secondary)

                     - can only use its effects within Combo Fields.

  >> Combo Detonator (NEW) when cast, deals 20 damage of the main Combo Field's Type of the tile target is on.

  >> Combo Shredder (NEW) when cast, all foes in range 2 have their mini Shield effects automatically depleted.

                     - affects Omni Shield, Thorn Shield, Elemental Shields and Arcane Shield (not ability Shields).

  >> Combo Siphon (NEW) - typically Well-related, casting this ability grants Elemental Refract of the main Combo Field's Type of the tile caster is on.

                     - "Refract" effect represents gaining "30 HP" versus all Elements except the specific one (Chaos Refract means 30 HP vs all non-Chaos sources, including Arcane).

                     - Refract lasts 3 rounds and is not a Shield or Mini Shield effect.

<> Changed wording for several abilities to make their descriptions easier to understand, especially regarding the duration of Ferenji the Brave's Operation abilities.

<> Rewrote each Disablity Effects' descriptions as well as Enforcer Effects' descriptions to remove confusion / offer better explanations.

 > Also added a line stating that they can each last 1 Phase, or 1 round (as per their properties).

<> Added a new Disability Effect and Enforcer Effect regarding Ultimate abilities.

<> Mana-Price Increase Immunity and Mana-Price Decrease Immunity were both Enforcer Effects, were united into "Mana-Price Manipulation Immunity" (Enforcer Effect).

 > All of above Effects properties have been added where needed to both protagonist's Stats file and foes' common properties' file.

< Mini Effect, boons and Ailment changes >

<> Corrected wording in Purified (Buff) description.

<> Changed an incorrect keyword's color in Endurance (boon).

<> Freezing (Debuff) also gained a Consume effect.

<> Added "Frozen application chances +12%" from Freezing (Debuff) to Frozen (Ailment) - too many effects for a Minor Effect.

<> Distortion of the Sound (Dark Utility) changed to: "Prevent target's next 1 Shout / Chant abilities and inflict 30 Sonic damage. Ends after trigger."

<> Distortion of the Sound (Dark Utility) changed to: "Prevent target's next source of Ultimate Energy gain. Inflict 10 Poison damage / Ultimate Energy negated."

<> Storm's Boon (Buff) changed to: "ATK +7 and 10% Lightning Harvester (non-stacking). Also Shred +10% if in Lightning Aura / Lightning Field."

<> Changed effects for Abilities Disabled (with non-instant and instant version as well) to show that Craft abilities, Shouts and Chants are exempt from this Disability effect.

<> Distortion of the Sound (Dark Utility) changed to: "Prevent target's next boon or Enforcer Effect application and target automatically receives Revealed (no duration)."

<> Priestly Boon (Buff) effect changed for healing from +10% and +20% respectively to +10 / +20 respectively.

<> Distortion of the Sound (Dark Utility) changed to: "Prevent next Departed Immunity application. Prevent next effect that would bring target back to life. Ends after EITHER trigger."

<> Trials of Pain: Self-Doubt (Dark Favor): changed keywords' colors to show that they are Disability Effects (not Ailments).

   >><> Buff: Intimidating.

   >><> Debuff: Stun.

   >><> Utility: Temple of Silence (player and regular), Nora's Peace, Peaceful Presence.
