Hello everyone!
Once again, were back with a new pack of fresh information, and this time its all about the new, exciting ways were going to change the old, not-as-exciting mechanics of Elteria Adventures. Today, were talking about the changes to the Soul system!
At this moment, each hard fought for, equipped soul gives you a small constant boost to some of your stats, as well as a temporary boost that activates whenever you pick up a gem shard. Neither is big enough to matter by itself, but three equipped souls would allow you to either smooth out the rough edges in your current build, or make the rough edges sharp enough to easily pierce a Boarmelons hide, at least in theory.
Weaponizing Polymorph is outright satisfying.
In practice, we had soon realized that there is nothing exciting about these mechanics, that theres little to no incentive to swap out the equipped souls as soon as you find a combination that works for you, and that most of our players use roughly the same combination of souls. And honestly, wed rather make things a tiny bit more interesting than that.
Which is why were introducing some changes to these mechanics:
First of all, the small buffs that are activated when you pick up a gem shard will depend entirely on the type of said gem shard. For example, those Lava Gem shards that are so common in the underground parts of Elteria? These will always give you a Light buff, allowing you to see in the poorly lit underground caverns. Others will give you Physical Defense, or Speed or some other kind of buff. So now youll no longer have to wonder if the souls youve equipped are interacting with the gem shards in the right way for the biome youre in. They always are.
With the new changes to the Souls, you too can be an adorable kitty.
And second of all: the equipped souls are going to give you active abilities. Yes, youve got that right, equip a Small Boarmelon soul and youll get their Charge Attack, put a Coin Cat soul on and youll be able to heal your allies, while the Blue Shark will give you their astonishing ground swimming ability. These abilities will be scaled and slightly tweaked for the players to use, of course - so some might actually be weaker or stronger than how they appear in nature - though all of them will give you new, fun ways to interact with the world of Elteria and its inhabitants.
With the new Soul System in place, your toolkit will widen not only in accordance to your equipment and level, but also with every new kind of Soul that you manage to collect. You will be able to acquire your first active abilities literally within minutes after first appearing in the world of Elteria Adventures, and youll continue to increase your arsenal through every single tier of every single biome on your way.
Feeling really fluffy today!
Get ready to tackle your enemies, swim through the ground, and heal your allies using the new, improved Souls.
And - see you soon!
