Introducing the Elements of Boundless (Updated)

Not only if it’s the pokémon style system^^

As first of: Hard counters are boring as heck. Secondly a rock/paper/scissor system was mentioned, which is what I was arguing for felt weird with the elemental types we have at the top.

Very interesting, can’t wait to see what this leads to. I really hope there will be some hazardous worlds with these things to look out for. I’ll add the picture to the devlog collection.

this is exactly the same as warframe

when i started playing there, they had only ice heat and electric.

when they added damage 2.0 you could get various types of elements by combining the base elements

toxin plus fire equals gas
cold plus shock equals magnetic
toxin plus electric equals corrosive
toxin plus cold equals viral
shock plus heat equals radiation
heat plus cold equals blast

you can have combinations like corrosive cold or heat
magnetic toxin
viral magnetic
viral heat
etc

nice to see something sorta familiar going being added into bounldless

Doesn’t justify the bad and repetitive/grindy gameplay though :confused:

Wow, really loved thoose :smile: they look awesome and got the right style of the game, i like thoose signs on the weapons as well.
I wanna see more of theese in like armor and stuff like glowing sword!:smiley:

I don’t think we’ll get amy swords ^^ The devs said they only plan on adding one meelee weapon type (the codenamed lance)

When I think of weapons with these effects, I hope you can visualize this. The more powerful the buff, the more intense the visualization.
I think of certain enchantments in WOW. Like the executioner (one of my favourites). Would suite corrosion or blast very well :wink:

But it would be also cool to implement that on tools, i.e. to show you are a high skilled miner :slight_smile:

I’ll allow you to guess the three special elements (they don’t fit into the elemental system, I’ve just thrown them in there as I named the gem types)
