I think you should keep the Inika Charge, but make it permanent.

*sees Golden Armor* Hehehe...ayahaha! MUAHAHAHA!!!

Wait, about the Antidermis Infusion: Are any of the Staves that Champions can't get for free going to be allowed to be used for Infusion?

I may come to regret this, but...yes, those Staffs can still be used for Infusion. That's a large part of why I wanted to find a way to balance Infected Barraki/Skakdi a little more.

Ah. I still won't upgrade the Staff of Silence though.

 

(OMG. Shadow Leech Partial Drain Shadow + Normal Element + Elemental Rahkshi Staff Infusion= Three elements!)

Actually, there's going to be a rule against using Elemental Rahkshi Staffs (even through Infusion) while the Partial Drain is in effect.

So hey,

For the Partial Drain, will it be allowed to add some things to the fighter to go along with said drain? Like, clawed hands, bat wings, etc.?

Or would only minor things be allowed, with major ones coming with the full Drain?

Zakaro

Zakaro, canonically, none of the Shadow Matoran mutations came from the Leech, instead all from Mutran. Gavla was because they needed to show her, but didn't have her premutation form.

What Canis said. Shadow Leeches will give you Shadow powers, but that's all.

Aww.

Herm.. perhaps, for the Partial Drain, it's more like the Inika Charge? Where shadow is woven into your attacks instead of being an entire other element to access?

 

Oh! Or, perhaps, symbolizing how a being is split by the conflicts of moral light and shadow, perhaps when you get the Partial Drain, when you use 1 element, either your original or shadow, it's like your Mind is halved? And only together can your full Mind be use to full potential?

Ideas, ideas..

Zakaro

I considered using half the mind stat, but I was afraid people might think that's too strict a restriction. If you're up for that, though, I can do that.

Zakaro, you know that you can always use the elements together and entwined.

I was more meaning that the Partial Drain would be always entwined instead of just when you want them to be, so eh.

I do approve of the way it's been implemented, however, so yay

(OMG. Shadow Leech Partial Drain Shadow + Normal Element + Elemental Rahkshi Staff Infusion= Three elements!)

Wait. New combo:

Normal Element + Mask of Emulation + Elemental Rahksi Staff Infusion= THREE ELEMENTS!

Acceptable, since the Mask of Emulation takes an item slot, leaves the user vulnerable while copying, and the powers copied this way are weaker.

Oh! Or, perhaps, symbolizing how a being is split by the conflicts of moral light and shadow, perhaps when you get the Partial Drain, when you use 1 element, either your original or shadow, it's like your Mind is halved? And only together can your full Mind be use to full potential?

 

I suggested a similar idea when I convinced Pahrak to make the Partial Drain permanent. It was less a hard-and-fast "your Mind is halved," though, and more a "each element has less than its regular power when used for an attack." However, I like the second half of this - that by combining the two elements, you can reach a full-power elemental attack. Consider yourself headcanon'd until Pahrak says otherwise.
