Spell Balance Suggestions

[Trenton]

the aura most definitely used to actually spawn a crystal with every shardshot cast, would expect it to be at a 30% or 50% spawn rate now like normal shardshot

[Peep 'Puff' Topia]

Anecdotally but when fighting creeps I've never seen Red Shardform spawn a crystal on shardshot. maybe it's RPB only?

That said, Red Shardform / Blue Shardform aren't much of an upgrade to Crystal Aura, but this doesn't mean they're insane.

It means that base Crystal Aura is 10 VIT 30 POW 25% DR when stunned

Base Crystal Aura is just fucking insane..

i-

are you all aware of what an extra spell means? it is much, much better than flat stats (unless the stats are massive). 10% ap with the spells CT/SB give is not bad by any means. wanting more because nature form has better stats is... silly.

upgraded shard form is, as it stands, the best aura in game. period. 10% ap & life steal with a passive that sends out an extra spell that has the chance to spawn a random crystal to heal/give you ap/cleanse.

like.

what

As a user of an upgraded crystal aura I can confirm that the extra shard doesn't spawn a crystals and it never has.

i implore you to look at sethon/RT and ask him how come he had crystals spawning with this aura before having crystal formation. (yes, it's because the aura does spawn crystals...)

Shard shot

the aura doesn't change the color of normal shard shot, so... no... it spawns crystals (it's just a chance of it like normal shard shot lol)

What's the chance percentage of it spawning a crystal? One has never spawned for me and I cast around 3-4 a fight.

i can't look at the code so i have no idea, but i know it exists (unless it was changed very very recently which i doubt)

I'm telling you now since I've used this aura it never spawned a crystal from the passive. I've had it for a while, so I would have noticed if it spawned a crystal or not and I don't have formation of crystals.

i tested it with asta. it works. it even spawns the chance on dashes.

Maybe the code for Sapphire shard isn't working then

You're saying when asta proc a red shard-shot that it spawned a ap/heal/ or cleanse crystal?

[Peep 'Puff' Topia]

The Red Shardshot procs on spells, including Dashes.

The Red Shardshot does NOT spawn crystals, which is the point of contention.

That's what I thought and I just tested 10 passive crystals and not ap/heal/ or cleanse  crystal spawns

[Connor]

The Shardshot for both auras does in fact spawn a crystal. Can confirm as a Sapphire User and substitute Ruby User before that. The chance is tiny.
