Acid Trees for Archmage

oh thank you! I'm glad you enjoy it

q: is this set up to work with Thaumaturgist (wide beam, multicaster, etc.)

Absolutely not. This is the first time I've thought about this addon since I made it, long before thaumaturge existed. xD
Wouldn't take That much effort, I thiiink...

Make Acid Splash and Torrent widebeamable, add Dissolution Cascade, Torrent of Vitriol and Burning Geyser to Multicaster, make Catalyze and Ultimate Catalyst work with thaum damage...
...maybe.

I didnt make Torrent a widebeam, because every other element only has one widebeam. I didnt add torrent to multicaster, because using a beam to cast a beam feels wrong. Otherwise, this is done now. Yaaaaay

Just wanted to say I'm still loving this. Very nice area coverage and some pretty handy support effects, but tricky to rely on as sole damage. Though, Burning Prison (Elementist, Acid/Cold) seems really potent thanks to the total iceblock penetration.

Also, if you wanted to make an acid mage NPC type to spawn in Angolwen, I've been using the title Alkahest (after the mythical universal solvent sought by alchemists) for mine as an equivalent to Tempest, Pyromancer, etc. Not sure if that's even a thing you can do, but throwing the idea out there.

oh, that's a really cool name idea! Unfortunately I'm unlikely to do it unless I see a good tile for it.

Because I needed an excuse to start a new character… Found a small bug: data/talents/acid.lua line 19, in Acid Splash's .target() method:

Code: Select all

else local tg = {type="bolt", range=self:getTalentRange(t), talent=t, display = {particle=bolt_acid, trail=acidtrail}, friendlyfire=false,}

"bolt_acid" and "acidtrail" need to be in quotes here; as it is, you're assigning nil to the display fields, making Acid Splash's projectile invisible. Which was really disconcerting in the Abashed Expanse, as you can imagine…

WHOOPS.

As thanks for diagnosing it and telling me how to fix it, I've uploaded the new version already. I even tested it and it sure did seem to be visible now.
(I also changed the addon to say "for version 1.7" so people stop looking at it and going "wow does that still work?")

Thank you for this tree.
Mb add some sound triggers to the Acid Splash?
