Timer Power Capsules

Hi Everyone.

Just like the title indicates, was thinking of some new capsules to get in the game. I dont know if this was already suggested in another topic, but here goes.

The Timer Power Capsules, would be somekind of upgrade that a knight would get, but trought only for a short period of time. For veterans this might not be good, but for newcomers this could be usefull in some points . Now, to get this work, yes, you can get good upgrades thanks to the capsules, but also some negative effects, after time passes, the effects disapears and your knight would return to normal. I have some examples so you can see my point ( the names of the capsules are also examples ).

  • Strengtht Capsule - Upgrade: Damage Bonus medium / Negative Effect: Attack Speed Decrease Medium / time period 1 min
  • Speed Capsule - Upgrade: Attack Speed Increased Medium and Movement Speed Increase Medium / Negative Effect: Normal/Piercing/Shadow Defense Decrease Medium and and Status Resistence Decrease Medium / time period 1 min
  • Nature Capsule - Upgrade: Status Resistence Increased Medium and Normal Defense/Piercing/Shadow Increased Medium / Negative Effect: Charge Time Increased Medium and Attack Speed Decreased Low / time period 1 min
  • Charger Capsule - Upgrade: Charge Time Reduction Medium / Negative Effect: Attack Speed Decreased medium and Damage Decreased Low / Time Period 1 min

There can be more of them, but this was only a few examples. Now, since all capsules must be suitable for all tiers, the capsules would be a little bit different too, like the "Strengtht Capsule", in tier 1 could be for example "Damage Bonus Low", the "negative effect" also would be "Low", the time period would be equal, "1 min" in all tiers. About using, you could only use one capsule at the time, unless its the same capsule, so that means, that the upgrade would double so as the negative effect, but the time remains, so if you consume more then one of the same capsule, the time would only reset to " 1 min " again.
This was only a short idea, and example, because there might be effects that are most unfair in relation about the others capsule.

Thank you all very much for your time, hope you like it, and give your thoughts or any idea that you might have, I would appreciate very much to read all of your opinions.

I'm sure someone will come up with how it's imba, but for now...

Sounds cool, will they be actual vials like in the Clockworks? If so, +1

Sounds a little bit like one of my old threads.

no.

the game is easy. very easy. extremly easy. really, I soloed from mission 1 to the rj without problems.
also, it would unbalance some things. and: MSI is rare and so it must stay; asi is much more useful than dam increase; ctr low with attack speed red and dam red would be useless. a medium buff on the armor in t1 is something. so it will destroy the difficulty in t3. time is not a problem; get one, wait, get another.
we do not need this. you don't need these either. believe me.

alright.

Thank you for your reply Thunder I appreciate your opinion , like I said some of the effects can be unfair, thats why it is only examples, and somekind of way for veterans much more easy thats why Ive mention about the negative effects. You didnt have any problem in tier 1, but theres always people with some strugle in some points...and your totally right about the MSI, but was only an example, it could be another thing.
Really would like to see new vials.

Pills Here!

I suggest that you replace the Vials with Capsules, with a good re-coloring.
Instead of mainly power buffs, try MSI and separate Defense-related Vials/Capsules. Some examples...

Nature Capsule - Pierce increase med and Freeze increase low. Fire weakness med.
Stone Capsule - Normal increase high and Stun increase med. MS decrease med.
Adrenaline Capsule - MSI/ASI/SDI high. All defense/stat reduce max, shield breaks 50% faster (for being to excited/fast to defend.)

Some good attack...

Guardian Capsule - Sword damage increase high. AS/MS reduce med.
Striker Capsule - ASI med. Normal weakness high.
Focus Capsule - CTR high. MS decrease med, AS decrease high.

Only one effect active effective at a time, lasts one floor.
Try less hindering recipes, players have to need/want these.

Looks Good.

Thank you Laminavio for your reply.
About the vials, just said vials, just because of the name, but yes, it would be like a capsule or pills.
The effects that I said above, were all made out, I thought about it, and wrote right way, and I like your info very much, it really helps.

If you need help...

I can come up with more, but I'm to lazy to type it. If you need help with any more, you can ask.

You can also rename the post if you want to.

1 minute seems a bit much

I think 20 seconds would honestly be better, because the pills could easily be abused in arenas. A short burst of speed and weakness would be better than something which would be hard to go back on.

yes, I guess it is.

Your right Unstable-Ordinance, 20 or 30 sec would be better, thank you.
