So currently working on implementing a mechanic in my game that hopefully will spice up the battles a little bit.
A Mechanic where you can use gadgets to combine spells or make them have new features:
Example:
You soak the enemy with water, opening up the ability to electrify them with Lightning spells or freeze them with frost spells.
You throw sticky oil at the targets, opening up your fire spells to ignite them.
So first off I want to discuss what you think about using craftable items to change the effects on skills, or combine spells to add different effects.
But mostly I want to see your take on HoTs (Healingovertime) and DoTs (Damageovertime) and how you set up the damage for them.
Do you use different statuses for Actors and enemies?, and how do you work with the damage that the status effects will do?
I started off with a % of the hp, but that seems to work pretty bad since the amount of hp determine how much damage it will take.
So what's your take on all this?

That is ok. I know the rest of the Actor 3 Set...
Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
