The First Legendary Beast Master -
Chapter 1284: New Accessories
Karl was unaware that the Immortal Regent had noticed what he was up to.
He was fully engrossed in the fights, and had paused his work while he thought of just the right bonuses to give the new bracelet that he was making for one of Hugo’s healers.
The Shaman didn’t really need much, he had excellent gear already. So, it would either be a bit more to his healing bonuses with a focused item, or he would give him an additional spell effect to increase his versatility, now that so many of the groups were focusing on maximum damage output with stronger tanks and additional golems.
With the change in strategy, it lessened the healing needed, and left the healers in a bit of a bind, as they had all geared themselves for purely healing, and it left their damage lacking.
Given that he had such good healing already, Karl decided that a bit of healing bonus, and then a new spell effect for damage might be just the thing that the Shaman needed.
He had the basics. Blizzard, Chain Lightning and such. So, perhaps a damage buff?
If it was a whole group damage buff spell, that would be even better. Naga Swamp. That would be compatible with nearly every shaman, Karl assumed, and it not only increased the group’s damage output, it also slowed enemies and gave a slight reduction to damage taken by the group.
For a bracelet, it would be an incredible spell if he could make it fit.
However, Remi had a better idea. She had more Totems that she never used.
[And why don’t you use them if they’re so good?] Karl asked.
[They don’t stack with Consecrated Ground] Remi replied with a mental shrug.
Well, that was certainly a good enough reason. They always had the area spell active, as it was large enough to cover the whole fight and was both offensive and defensive.
[Totem of Elemental Wrath] Increases Elemental Damage by 10 Percent of base per caster rank.
Simple, safe and effective.
Now, it only applied to elemental type skills, so fire, lightning, and ice would be the primary beneficiaries, while the warriors’ core skills, which did physical damage would not get anything. But the group could adapt to that if they were getting this large of a bonus.
Karl stared at the spell description for a moment. This was a much larger damage increase than Consecrated Ground, and it applied to all elemental damage, not just Holy damage. However, it didn’t do passive damage on its own, and it didn’t have that sweet 50 percent damage reduction.
Of course, Karl suspected that there were diminishing returns when you had too much damage reduction, so they could likely do without it. But it was still nice to have.
[If you give him Mana Pylon on another bracelet, he won’t even miss the extra healing. He will just start to spam the big heals.] Tian suggested.
[That’s a wonderful idea. If the healers have a long duration damage spell and a mana pylon, they can’t be accused of slacking on either role.] Karl agreed.
[Combat floof.] Cara giggled when Tian got visions of valiantly fighting off enemies.
[Just wait, I’m getting all grown up now. Soon, I will be a formidable fighting fox.]
Cara shrugged. Full-grown, they would both be about the same size. Big enough for Tian to be an actual fighter. Though, if she remembered right, even house cats were considered fearsome when angry, and Tian was about that size now.
Even Remi thought that the idea of Tian as an aggressive animal was a bit of a stretch. Even compared to Thor, he was just too cuddly and friendly.
Thor was at least innately designed to stomp on things that couldn’t be made into friends, and he had come equipped with a head shield and horns. Tian had… not.
Karl finished the first bracelet and then made another identical one before moving on to the Mana Pylon bracelets.
Those he would need a lot for, as every cleric and Shaman would want one.
The amount of extra damage that a group could do if they didn’t have to worry about mana regeneration rates would definitely be far superior to anything that they had been able to accomplish before now.
Cheering in the stands caught Karl’s attention just in time to see the first of the bosses vanish, and a team celebrate their first victory.
Tiffani and her team were still fighting the Oathbreaker Demon, who was moving so fast that Karl was certain half the arena couldn’t even follow the fight, and were just watching the sparks fly, or the random moments when someone locked blades and everything paused for a split second.
The pure speed of the demon was truly impressive, but the crowd was more enthusiastic about a fight on the other side of the arena, where a water elemental type monster was battering a group of Dragonkin with repeated wave attacks.
The fight was a good one. But the real draw was their White Dragon Priestess. Specifically, her now soaked white robes.
She had leather armour on under them, Karl could tell. But that didn’t matter to the crowd, who were enthusiastically cheering for the way that the white cloth clung to her.
There was also a good bit of cheering for the shirtless Wrath Demon Berserker that was tanking for one of the other groups, but not quite as vocal as for the white dragon.
While they fought, Karl put the finishing touches on the items, and then realized that he didn’t actually have a plan for who was going to get the second set. Dana couldn’t use the Shaman Totem, and she could cast Mana Pylon on her own.
Remi didn’t need either of them, and their group didn’t have another Shaman.
Certainly, not a Mythic Rank one.
But there was one up in the VIP box of the hotel section.
Perhaps he could build some goodwill.
