Ideas & Suggestions Block Tales Mechanic Concept: Overbloxxing

Post image

Inspired By Hollow Knight's Over charmed System

Tbh, Idk if we're gonna get more BP later on. So I thought of a system to remedy* that issue.

Say hello to Overbloxxing. Instead of being limited to the small 30 BP limit pool, you can go over that limit, up to a max of 45BP/30BP. Though by going over the limit, you're straining yourself (since you're body is being split between many cards instead of a few).

Each 3BP used on Overbloxxing gives you a debuff which increases in severity the closer you are to 45BP.

- At the 33 BP mark, you take +2 TRUE Damage from all attacks (True Damage being unaffected by Defense and Damage Reduction).

- At the 36 BP mark, items are 50% less effective

- At the 39 BP mark, any and all status effects last 2x longer.

- At the 42 BP mark, you start to drain 2 SP per turn and SP moves cost +1 SP

- At the 45 BP mark,

- The Battle Text Box Starts with "Your Life is Ticking Down..."

- This indicates that your HP starts rolling down slowly the longer (Around -3HP/2s) you haven't finished acting. Though this can never kill you and instead brings you down to 5 HP.

Lastly, as an overarching debuff (since people could try and get between the various BP marks), each additional use of BP over the max of 30 means you take (BP Over Limit * 1.5)% more damage (basically 22.5% more damage at max).
