Shepherd’s Secret Continuation

Chapter 48: Rare Trait Container of Burning and Radiance

Views:

Although he couldn't see the effects now, Aiwass had already memorized the effects of these two rare terms.

When I have nothing to do, I help my friends brush the advanced books, and I can memorize all the effects of these random entries...

Good people will be rewarded.

"Fouled Light" is an advanced item that can theoretically be maxed out three times.

Its effect is that when any spell that uses only light attribute mana as consumption causes damage, an additional one-third of the damage is poisonous damage. When this entry is clicked for the second time, another one-third of cold damage is gained. When this entry is clicked for the third time, another one-third of shadow damage is gained.

If you click on this entry for all three advancements, you can get a simple and crude 100% additional damage. And the additional damage is composed of three types of damage, which is not easily resisted by attribute resistance.

However, the characteristics of this path of devotion are also very limited in their use.

Only spells that consume pure light attribute mana can be effective, and they must be damage spells.

The "Priest" profession of the Path of Devotion does not have direct damage skills.

Throughout the entire Devotion Path, only the "Temple Guardian Monk" and the "Fire Worshiper" have attack spells. The latter's spells are almost all fire-attributed, with only a few two or three attack spells made up of pure light-attribute mana.

Although as long as the "Light Affinity" is selected, the priest will have the ability to use energy-related basic attacks... but this path characteristic is generally only selected by "Temple Guardian Monk".

After this profession is advanced to "Buddha Lion" above level 50, it will gain key professional characteristics. It can cast all non-dark attribute spells below the third energy level with light attribute mana only, and the final damage attributes are all converted into light attributes, and the spell effects are penetrated by light attribute resistance.

Combined with the low-level instant spell "Lion's Roar" of its origin, and the maxed-out "Fouled Light" feature, it is the child of version 4.2, the famous "Fouled Lion's Roar" school - the extra 100% damage increase will be converted all back to the light attribute, combined with its own light attribute resistance penetration ability, it is a very violent pure output profession, with extremely high continuous output, full control, and the ability to burst out, all of which are area damage.

This type of profession is very popular in various point-guarding and quick-clearing activity missions.

And the authorities did not weaken this genre. They did not change the values at all. Their balancing method is very simple -

That is to greatly reduce the proportion of point defense and quick-brush activities, and temporarily increase the frequency of offensive activities.

Because the ability of this profession to tackle tough problems is not very ideal.

The damage transfer and resistance penetration of the Buddha Lion are limited to small skills. The big skills during the attack are still mixed damage, and there is no resistance penetration. In addition, the various bosses have full poison resistance, so the final improvement is definitely less than 33%.

Compared to this, what really caught Aiwas's attention was the second characteristic of the path.

Different from the polluted light of the path of devotion.

This entry is not a unique entry for the Path of Devotion, but a general purple rare entry.

It is also a container-type entry, but it will only appear in professions that can gain two attribute mana at the same time when upgraded.

It cannot be more or less, it must be exactly two kinds of magic power.

For example, when a mage upgrades, he can obtain four types of mana, namely wind, earth, water and fire, while a demon scholar can only obtain dark mana when upgrading. They will never randomly get this entry - of course, this profession also has its own special entry.

Its effect is simple and practical, which is to increase the level of the container entries of two attributes by one.

This also means that you can choose to use it to get a container entry for free, or you can choose to use it to forcibly break through the container entry that can only be upgraded to LV3 to LV4.

The number of times a transcendent can advance is really limited. Therefore, every entry that can save an advancement is valuable.

The strongest transcendent in the current version is only in his 40s. He is at the fifth energy level—the so-called fifth energy level means that he has five path characteristics, that is, he has entries corresponding to the path.

In addition to the Path of Wisdom, which can double mana when upgrading, other spellcasting professions of transcendents basically have to choose one or two container entries, so at least they will not lose.

Because for spellcasting professions, the mana provided by upgrading is simply not enough.

The mana rule is that you get one point for each level you advance in the first ten levels, two points for each level from 11 to 20, three points for each level from 21 to 30, and so on. Multi-color professions add points in a circular order, without decimal points.

For non-casting professions, their mana is becoming more and more abundant... But for spellcasters who lack the ability to attack normally, mana is never enough.

The so-called "elemental affinity" refers to the mage's non-mana-consuming basic attack. Although it can be upgraded to the highest level 3, not many professions will choose it.

Healers are generally short of mana.

The intensity of the dungeon battles will inevitably increase.

Maintaining "illumination" and "fire worship" requires burning a large amount of light attribute mana, and each time the lighting is activated, a little fire attribute mana is required as a fuse.

A container-type entry that grants 14 mana when selected for the first time, 28 mana when selected for the second time, and 42 mana when selected for the third time.

Maxing it out three times grants 84 extra mana - this amount of mana is enough for a single person to sustain healing throughout a high-intensity battle, and is enough to save about a dozen people with severed limbs or damaged internal organs who are on the verge of death.

But even so, if teammates do not dodge any mechanism at all and take all the damage, they will definitely not be able to recover.

After all, if you max out the container attribute three times, you can only fill up fourteen tubes of blood.

Moreover, this also means that before he reaches level 30, he cannot select any "affinity" entries to gain attack capabilities. He also cannot select rare entries at all.

The choice of path characteristics is even greater than the improvement of the profession itself.

Purple rare entries and golden mythical entries that can only be obtained after level 50 can permanently change the skill form.

For example, the priest profession is a must for almost everyone, dedicating oneself to saving all living beings.

This is a purple feature, the effect of which is that all benefit spells released to a single target are changed to group spells, and the duration is halved.

Since it only reduces the duration and not the effect, this is extremely effective for team battles.

In addition, the priest can use the universal path characteristic status delay to double the duration of all status skills to make up for the missing duration; he can also obtain the source of life adapted to the path through part-time work, which can increase the treatment amount of all his non-instant treatment abilities by one third, and shorten the treatment cycle by one third, obtaining a larger amount of illumination treatment per unit time and saving mana in disguise; or he can use the bright body of the dedicated path to increase the mana consumption by an additional 1.5 times, and use the whole body to release "illumination", transforming illumination into a mobile, long-range, group healing ability that does not require close and continuous guidance, further enhancing group combat capabilities.

But a level 50 priest can only choose five from this bunch, plus a free container or affinity.

Because everyone has different tendencies and different path characteristics, the characters they create are completely different.

What I am afraid of is that I don't know the effect of the path characteristics, so I click the wrong one, or I regret it halfway through, or I don't know how to go.

But compared to other extraordinary people who don’t even know what path they will take in the future, Aiwass always has a clear goal and knows how to get there.

This ensures that every time he advances, it will be valuable!

—I choose the second one.

Aiwas thought.

After Aiwass chose the "Container of Burning and Radiance", the other two options were shattered.

He felt the small cut on his face heal quickly, and a warm current flowed into his body along with the invisible seed of light.

Si Zhu nodded slightly to him, then turned and left.

And the heat in Aiwas' body was surging more and more; he looked down and found that his skin had become transparent and began to shine.

Like a firefly, fire ignited within him, light overflowed—

And when the light on his chest reached its peak, Aiwas suddenly woke up from his dream, sweating all over.

He was still in his wheelchair, and the sun was just rising outside. He had slept for less than six hours.

As soon as Aiwas opened his eyes, the changed part of the attribute panel appeared in front of him, reminding him that the advancement was successful:

Priest LV10: Basic Prayer - Level 2 (3%), Fire Sacrifice - Level 2 (5%), Illumination - Level 2 (15%), Blessing - Level 2 (0%), Pastoral Care (Flesh and Blood) - Level 2 (10%)

Mana Pool: 22/22 (Light), 5/5 (Dark), 44/44 (Fire)

Road Features—

Consecration - Container of Burning and Shining: Light is born from fire, and fire floats on light. Your soul is nourished by both. Your "Container of Flame" and "Container of Light" level increases by 1.

Dedication - Light Vessel LV1: You take the blood of the candle, and your soul is expanded. The maximum capacity of your mana pool (light) increases by 14.

Consecration - Flame Vessel LV2: You consume the flesh of the Candlemaker, and your soul is further expanded. Your maximum mana pool (fire) capacity increases by 42.

Aiwass took a deep breath.

He felt extremely relieved.

With the "Container of Burning and Brilliance", the guarantee is enough!

—No matter whether he gets the container attribute or not when he advances next time, Aiwass will definitely be able to gather enough mana before level 20 to complete the production of the first blank card!

No, or rather - he no longer needs the blue path feature of Flame Container.

Next time he can use rare traits to strengthen himself!

"... In this case, we must try to get first place at the next Full Moon Ceremony."

Aiwass murmured: "However, there are actually wonderful replays in the settlement phase..."

This is an important reminder.

Very timely.

Fortunately, each "highlight clip" only lasts for a moment, so other people probably can't understand what he did.

So, next time he has to be more careful and not reveal too much - and still get high scores

Although he was not sure how much the points ranking would increase the rare entries, Aiwas was basically sure that there was definitely a probability increase. Otherwise, it would be too scary to get two purple items in the first advancement ceremony.

Basically, the first two attributes of a Transcendent can only be the blue container or affinity attributes, and players are generally too lazy to brush them - after all, "affinity" and "container" must be taken once or twice, so it is better to get them in the early stage.

The material for changing characteristics, "Heart of Reshaping", requires spending real money.

Because the attributes of the path are both laborious and time-consuming to brush, although this Rogue-like attribute system has extremely strong playability and possibilities, the planners still often fly at high speeds outside the atmosphere at the first cosmic speed.

Aiwass originally thought that he would have to rely on luck randomly, and he felt very pessimistic at the time - after all, he didn't know how to obtain this krypton gold item that washed out the characteristics of the path in real life.

The name sounds extremely rare.

But as he completed the ritual, he suddenly discovered something—

Oh my god, that ritual in the game might be a castrated version, right

Not only is there no plot in the advancement ceremony, but you will directly fight a random BOSS when you land... and the goods are also random.

At most, there is one "weekly UP" given by the planner, which can increase the delivery probability of some road characteristics.

And the three characteristics that Aiwass got... didn't seem to be very random.

The fact that he was given the opportunity to choose the "Light Affinity" trait was probably related to his obvious lack of combat ability at critical moments - if Aiwass was a native without prophetic abilities, he might have realized during the ceremony that he was too fragile and powerless, and therefore chose the Light Affinity trait to gain combat effectiveness.

The characteristic of "Container of Burning and Radiance" is obviously because Aiwass burned out all his mana pools when he died.

Similarly, he may feel that he is short of mana and choose this trait... although his mana is not actually exhausted by casting spells, but is burned up in one go through "shepherding". However, this judgment mechanism obviously does not recognize the difference here.

As for the "Defiled Light", it is probably related to some slightly evil actions of Aiwass. His soul briefly merged with the devil, and he even took the initiative to kill people.

However, the existence of the "pastoral law" does make this behavior consistent with the path of dedication and reasonable.

Therefore, this advancement ritual may have believed that Aiwass should be one of the "more weird followers of the dedicated path", so it kindly gave him an equally weird path characteristic and asked him if he wanted to switch to output.

Apart from the issue of rarity, these three traits are essentially path traits of the advancement ritual "tailored to Aiwass's personal style."

Quite smart.

—So, your behavior and evaluation during the ceremony may also affect the type of path characteristics you randomly receive

Aiwass fell into deep thought.

How about we do an experiment to verify this during the New Moon Ceremony next month

at the same time.

The other participants also opened their eyes one after another.
