Okay guys, some great entries here. You guys gave me once again a lot of new ideas. Some of the ideas were more likely Combat Kings or Special Abilities but that doesn't matter to me. I can still use them in a way or another!



Hunger for Revenge by Blackdoom59

Pros & cons:

+ The idea works
- Usually it's not a good idea to put spell duration based on level, and this is not a special case
- The basic idea is similar to Combat King Berserk

I would say you've done the ability overally good and it would fit with Phodom.

3 / 5


Morale Warcry by Isofruit

Pros & cons:

+ The idea is done well
+ I like the idea of activating the ability if Phodom takes a heavy blow from an enemy unit
- The armor bonus shouldn't increase per level(because it's % already)
- I have a feeling this would be better to simply have one level

This is an interesting idea. The values should be solid and not percentage. However, I have a feeling that this could be better with percentages. I like the idea nonetheless.

3,5 / 5


Concussive Blow by Doomlord

Pros & cons:

+ Overall okay idea
- This ability is imba(after every single cast this is activated)
- The ability would be unrealistic if there are huge enemies knockbacked

I could think something like this, but this would only happen against smaller type of enemies. Also a knockback with ability doesn't seem right to me.

2,5 / 5


Flame Aura by Isofruit

Pros & cons:

+ I like the new of thinking that mana regen would be zero when the ability is active
- The bonuses of aura are unoriginal

The basic idea works, but the bonuses don't. This ability however gave me a great start thinking of Phodom last Ultimate Ability.

2 / 5


Obstinacy by noal

Pros & cons:

+ Works

There's not much to say about this ability. It works, there are no flaws but in other hand there's nothing new and unique.

2,5 / 5

@ noal
In case I remember the whole thing right, something like that was made for Combat King Berserk:
Aero coded it like an aura that should check itself after every second and adapt itself to the hitpoints of the character. But since the whole thing was too complicated, it somehow did not work.
So it would be nice if you could imagine a way to make the whole thing easier to code.
Indeed, but this only happens with Blizzard made auras. This ability is only for Phodom which means I won't do it from an aura.


Fire Imbued Skin by noal

+ Storing and unleashing damage is a good idea
- Hard to balance if it's not made by percentages
- I have a feeling this would be better if it has only 1 level(or 5 in case of combat king)

The idea is nice, but the ability won't work with 20 levels...

2,5 / 5



Holy armor by Blackdoom59

+ Would work
+ Nice effects you've chosen
- Unoriginal
- Just basic stats, this is like another item without any specialities

This is the worst entry of this competition.

1,5 / 5



And the winner is Isofruit!
