[General Brave]

Not bad.

[makazuwr32]

Snake skin doesn't need cooldown.
otherwise it is fine.

[Lynx Shafir]

tank you

[General Brave]

I'm guessing it's design will be a cobra.

[Lynx Shafir]

What is the difference?

[General Brave]

Different design.

[Skelegonsans]

Like the idea! only have a small suggestion for the first spell (Kobra Bite).
It would have a cooldown of 4, a range of 6, affect an 13-tile area (like the fireball spell), dealing no damage, but poisoning the enemies hit and applying a 2-turn 1-speed slow, as well as reduce attack by 3 for 2 turns. It would be a weakening offensive spell (a very useful one at that).

I also suggest adding yet another spell to it, the Ice Missile. Range 4, damage 5 and would apply a 2-turn 1-speed slow. No cooldown.

Would be a very useful offensive mage with a few nice buffs as well.

[Skelegonsans]

Also, you should add these stats to the shaman.
Melee dodge = 30%
Ranged dodge = 30%
Counter dodge = 60%
as it was agreed that all snakemen would have a dodge rate and these were the numbers used for it so far.
To compensate the dodge rate I'd also lower its hp to around 20. so it wouldn't be to much of a pain to kill if engaged.

[makazuwr32]

Currently kobra bite is better for balancing because it is like magic missle.
scaledfolks have currently one of strongest AOE magic in the game and they don't need more.

[Skelegonsans]

Hmm, true. Then maybe it is a magic missile like spell with no cooldown, range 5 that deals 5 damage and poisons, also giving a -3 attack penalty and a 1-speed slow for two turns? (if so we won't need the ice missle thing)

[makazuwr32]

It can give only one on-hit status effect.
Either poison effect or stats reduction effect.

[Lynx Shafir]

I want the weakening one cos
The variety either active or passive attack.

[Skelegonsans]

Hmm. In that case, a -3 attack, -2 both armors and -1 speed for one turn seems good.

[General Brave]

Is always nice when you return.

[Savra]

Let's see here the only difference you want him to have over the other snakemen is a staff correct? I can do that.

[Savra]

Like this?

[Lynx Shafir]

Kobra head and bigger staff.
May different skin colour Idk

[Savra]

I'll wait first to see what others think. Snakemen (with the exception of mr. Black momba and the crimson fangs) are all yellow while Lizardmen (again with the exception of the Lizardmen brutes) are all green. That means colour should be fine but agree on staff.

[Savra]

Funny they look like they're about ready to bop each other on the head.

[Lynx Shafir]

Sneezing snakes.

[Skelegonsans]

lmao sneezing snakes

yeah I like the images as well, look gucci to me

[Savra]

Alright so we should settle for:

Cobra bite
Sharp senses
Cobra gaze
Snake skin

[Skelegonsans]

Yeah. Exact effects weren't mentioned in the stats above tho (except for kobra bite). these are what I suggest, feel free to opinate on them.

kobra bite - range 5, single target (enemy living flesh and blood units only)
Reduces attack by 3, both armors by 2 and speed by 1. Lasts 1 turn.

snake skin - range 4, single target (allied living flesh and blood units only)
increases both armors by 2. lasts 2 turns. doesn't stack.

kobra gaze - range 4, single target (any enemy non-building, non-mechanical unit)
has a 30% chance to persuade the target. chance is affected by magic resist.

sharp senses - range 4, single target, cooldown 3 (any allied non-building, non-mechanical unit)
gives an ally a 25% dodge chance increase to all their dodge rates (melee, ranged, counter). lasts 2 turns. doesn't stack.

[General Brave]

Somehow I missed the Image thanks you.

[Tankhead]

Finish imaged and not complete stats.
Hmmmm

Also if your gonna give new abilities atleast alter existing abilities/Spells so it may be easier for those who do Jsons to make those abilities

[Skelegonsans]

All of the suggested effects sound fairly simple except maybe for the dodge % increase thing.
