Welcome to Gaia! ::

The Multi-purpose Tool only increases 1 stat for every 1 AP&MP mix. It doesn't seem to carry over rounds... So, sorry. Myself, I wouldn't use it because I need both my MP, and my AP. For other people, I don't think most people have too much AP or MP to spare already. 1 point of magic, combat dice, defense, or life, or equip doesn't really cut it for most.

One question. Say bob uses it to increase his life by 1. He takes 6 damage, does 5 go away with the life points? Or does he take 6 damage no matter what. If a person got multiple multi-purpose tools, and also could gain multiple AP and MP per round, this might create an unfair 'damage sponge'.

Sorry to say, I need my MP and AP; I go with the summoner staff. There really arn't enough summon stuff... Although the pill was good, I don't really see the usefulness if my wisp just shutters and inplodes. Whenever I'd need a serious heal, my party still would probably need some healing until the end; not just all at once.

The explosive reactive armor is cool; but I don't think most of us have the life or defensive capabillities needed to wear it efficiently. Mabye when more defensive builds come into style

That sounds like it would be really useful. I'm assuming that it can only be used once per turn though. Still good, and that's what I'm voting for.

Keep in mind, your voting for what you think is best for the Guild overall, not just your character specifically. Which Item would benefit every member of the Guild most by it's presence within the system? Some submissions directly benefit the individual, while others can be used by anyone. Some Items enhance the effectiveness of an entire party by their presence, while others enhance only a single entity. Try to best decide what works best from an overall perspective; if only one Item is introduced into the system, which one will best serve the Guild?

Okay, whats the point of wasting an AP or MP... If it adds just one point? Its unbalanced because most people would simply power up life to get that 5 point regen. And there's hardly a time I can think of that 1 point in defense saved anybody. Infact, most mages would rather keep to the easier to find apprentice amulets, and a dagger would be more economical for the average fighter.

--Fist of the Warrior
*6 equip
*Grants the wearer a 5 point speacial attack
*This item's special attack does not count toward the wearer's one special attack limit.

(( ninja ... ninja ......MWAHAHA! twisted ))

I know I'm not in charge of approving or disapproving the formulas, but I just have to ask one question. Where does the aprentice staff fit in? Nowhere in the item does it do the same thing as the aprentice staff.

Staff Of the Archmage (2 E) c.5/5

Whenever you cast a spell, you can expend charges to cast the spell. One charge is equal to one MP for the purposes of SPELLS ONLY; this does not activate items, or abillities. The max charges you can expend each round is equal to your magic score divided by 3, round down.

Swift Dagger (2 E) c.3/3

+1 attack. Whenever you use an action, you can expend charges to use the action. One charge is equal to one AP for the purposes of ACTIONS ONLY; this does not activate items, or abillities. The max charges you can expend each round is equal to your combat dice divided by 3, round down.
