Default Re: Magic Items Suggestions

Not bad stuff. Some thoughts....

I already abuse that black-heart thing making assassins. The most controlling limit that exists on it now is that the units that do/dont have stealth are fairly well thought out. If a stealth item is created, I would massively abuse that combination. SC are bad enough without SC assassins. OTOH I do agree that things like cloaks of invisibility and rings of invisibility are SOoooo standard in games like this that it seems strange they arent in the game. I could see it if they were put in and the assassin heart thing was taken out.

WHen I saw Drain Stone I had another thought. I was expecting it to be another one of those items that you sneak into an enemys territory in order to affect him. Like that bane stone. Something that would put a drain on the magic to poison someones secret lab that you found
