I like this one! The enemy could turn light blue too, to indicate they are frozen.

Hehe. And it's in a lot of fangames, too, but that just makes it a little cooler. (do you get it?)

Ahaha...we advance to the realm of bad punns. That's not cool. (Gah! There I go!) Anyway, this should only effect an area of enemies, not the whole screen. The longer you charge it, more enemies get frozen. That way you've got a swell way to improve it with potions. (Just a little question: Did the Energy Mines improve with potions? If they did,I didn't really see a difference.)

I think "rate *in roadmap*" looks a bit weird...

Oh, and yes, the puns are coming.

Ok, I put a pipe in between.

Mhm, looks better.
But why can't it just say in roadmap.

Status: rate is to let you know that it hasn't been used yet. If I take that out you won't know that.

Excellent idea! Wish I'd come up with it myself!

To answer Roxblaster's question, yeeess, Energy Mines improved with potions. The bigger the blast, the more mines that appeared.

Although you probably won't be able to put the summon spell in, because your summoned buddies might be confused with the frozen enemies (I like the summon army spell better).

Hey, I have an idea: How about if you knock back a frozen enemy and it hits another enemy, they both take damage.

Kewl, would it be like a blast that would come out of his mouth and kinda just blow toward s the mouse and explode, or wut???

or the frozen enmies are in a ice cube bigger than them and as it defrosts i shows how long its frozen [^_^]
and if you don't like this idea tell me whats wrong with it and pie

Does it do damage?


16 Jul 2007 [comment_22367]
NEW! Owl
Because it shouldn't do too much damage. This spell isn't supposed to be a damaging spell, in the same way that the Morph wasn't.

NEW! firestorm
You mean you didn't go round killing stuff with morph?


28 Jul 2007 [comment_22610]
NEW! Darren
Hey, Morph was a damaging spell! The first time I played Merlin's Revenge I didn't realise that Energy Blast was better than Morph and completed half the game using Morph as my attack!

Well, you have to give me credit for trying...

Hey, i suggested on a same cinda spell called "ensnare" where the enemies hit would get tangled and squeezed by roots. It would do damage and stop them. It's pretty much just an improved version of this.

NEW! f123979
I'm sorta thinking this is different than a snare. The idea I was kinda of imagining was more like the enemy thaws out over time. There would be no damage, just a window of opportunity because adding damage just seems kind of like **I can stop this guy as long as I want and he never ever can attack and he's dying at the same time**

well, this is one of the spells that will definitely have to have a bunch of limiting factors such as;
1. not easily spammable/slow charge, otherwise you could just freeze EVERTYHING while your army killed the helpless enemies (a soldier with 1 hp left could kill the whole map like this)
2. freeze shouldn't last too long // should stop when they get hit; if you want them to be able to be damaged without breaking the ice encasing them, the enemies should be frozen for a short time, possibly depending on the size of the blast just like damage is determined, yet on a much lower scale. If you want them to be frozen for a while, you can't have it so they can take damage without being unfrozen or you could camp everything into a corner with freeze and then alternately spam freeze and blast.


-i think it would be better if they got a certain amount of ice on them depending on how big the blast was//how many times the spell hit them.

the ice would melt off them over time, and while they take damage the ice could fall off, and possibly reduce the damage they take.

maybe there could be a few degrees of 'frozen'.
the first with them just being iced over, the next with some crystals on them, progressing towards... well... a lump of ice with who can see what in it.

the blast should have to reach a set size before it can freeze a certain enemy, otherwise you could spam the smallest freeze shot onto a huge enemy while your mini army runs around and pokes it to death.

this way you could set it so the freeze blast cannot reach the size you would need to freeze a boss type enemy, you could apply it to certain enemies such as; the big skeliton lord, the black sorcerer, possibly necros, maybe the giant flamingoes. anything that you would want to pose a real challenge for the player.

this way you could prevent it from being abused as a 'spam stun' on those huge enemies you made for the later maps.

Well, when you came, you spelt really incorrectly, and that actually ticked me off quite alot at times.

And here we are! You are using proper grammar, and... Stuff.

That's what the 'Wow' was about.

Bug Fixed: now things that are hit by a freezing spell will flip back and forth between teal and red, rather than just flashing red.
