Wondering, when you say we have ten points now, do you mean we have ten altogether, or ten along with whatever we had from the day previous?

Just Ten.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Mmkay.

Ok, Bonuses should be this: Demi +1, Minor +5, Major +16, Over +41

This is calculated as if they all were using full artifacts equiped.

This would mean that 2 Demi would give same bonus as 1 Minor, 2 Minor = 1 Major, and 2 major = 1 Over in team calculations only.

It would still take 3 Majors to equal 1 Over with these points. 15 Demi would equal 1 Over.

Then you could limit people to the equivalent of having 5 Major spirits.

The numbers may seem big, but this way having a ton of Demi-spirits doesn't outweigh someone who builds up a couple really strong Major-spirits.

[Zaleramancer]

Five Major Spirits would cost 60 motes...

[Philote]

I already have 4 though, and I'm pretty sure Dryad and jester already have a couple, it would be cheap for me to get 5.

Trust me, the math makes sense if you use those bonuses.

[Zaleramancer]

I'm not sure I understand why those bonuses are better than the current ones.

[Philote]

It is based off of full equiped Divine Artifacts, so that combat would be equal.

It would go 7, 14, 28, and 56 for Over spirits. Starting calculations with Demi (+1, +6 two Divine Artifacts) and doubling for each rank.

[Philote]

Trust me, use these: Demi +1, Minor +5, Major +16, Over +41

Not everyone has divine artifacts in the first place.

[Philote]

It will still work. I did the math to make it balanced

Demi spirits should be weak and Over spirits should be the strongest.

[Zaleramancer]

Weak. Not worthless.

That's what they are with your bonuses. Even in a team, they add nothing.

[Philote]

Demi (+1, +6) = 7

Minor (+5, +9) = 14

Major (+16, +12) = 28

Over (+41, +15) = 56

The first number is the Divine Bonus, the second number is the maximum bonus from Divine Artifacts. The power doubles each rank. Even without Divine Artifacts 3 Major could take out and Over without Divine Artifacts.

[Zaleramancer]

Fine.

I'm beginning to consider just yanking the whole damn thing out.

[Philote]

You would need a lot more Demi to take out and Over this way, you would literally need an army which is how it should be.

This is only way to make sure combat with Divine artifacts is balanced.

If you use my system for capping the amount of spirits one can create. Then 20 Demi would give same advantage as 5 major.

[Philote]

It will work, most people have only Majors anyways.

It is balanced this way.

[Zaleramancer]

I don't want to have people stop and consider, when creating a nice roleplaying opportunity in god form, if they have enough room for it.

[Philote]

I'm just trying to make combat fair.

Between 5 Major or 20 Demi, that is a lot for people to create with new mote costs.

The only thing that would need to be changed would be the bonuses.

[Philote]

If you're worried about people hitting the cap and then being unable to create anything, then we can increase cap by set amount once enough people reach it.

Such as increasing Divine Spirit cap by increments of 4 and Divine Artifact limit by increments of 2

[Zaleramancer]

I changed them.

I'm not capping it, If people start abusing things, I will hand out punishments.
