Because Weakening Curse had not been added into the database until recently (thanks for notifying us, Best Minion Ever), I had updated Creeping Curse to include its third tier variants.

I'd like to know if you would prefer:

1. Third tier variants being listed, but not explained.
2. Third tier variants being listed and their effects paraphrased.
3. Third tier variants being unlisted.

I, personally, think the first option would be best, as it shows what the item branches to without taking up too much space. However, since its description only shows up when hovered over, I don't think it's be too intrusive if it listed a brief explanation of each variant's effects.

The 3rd-tier items are supposed to be added as separate, stand-alone items. However, mentioning what a 2nd-tier could become is a good idea. I like what you did here. What you did with Creeping Curse looks good.

2nd option. It doesn't take too much space, and it looks good.

Yeah, the tiered variants would be listed as themselves, but they would also be mentioned under the original item.

Okay, so you think a paraphrase would be fine but not its full description, correct?

Hmm... maybe number one.

Just something like:

3rd-tier Variants:

1. insert active

2. insert active

Just its name. That might work well.

Probably sounds best, yeah. Not too cluttered but lets you know what it can become. I'll see what anyone else says tomorrow and then edit them later.

I kind Of like them as separate items, if you look at Voidblade compared to focused voidblade it's like two totally different items. But idk :p

Yeah, I kind of wish all tiered variants had different names than the original item (such as how Creeping Curse splits into either Weakening Curse or Enfeebling Curse). Some (most) have one variant sharing the same name as the original.

Edit: I think you are under the impression I would be combining items, but that's not the plan at all. It would just be a little indication listed in the original item's description as to what it can branch into. The coding for the variants themselves would still exist (you'd still have Focused Void Stone, but Void Stone would mention at the bottom that it could branch into FVS).

Oh, I just read it on the bus so totally read that post wrong >_<

I like 1 and 2 lol, maybe a shorter version of 2 like "-healing debuff / -reduces healing" idk looks kind of unprofessional.

1 is best I think :)

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
