Here's a list of charged items. All of the statistics of these items may be changed, that is, IF they need to be changed. Sorry if there's so few, it's just I can't find anything else for their icons Böse

!

Kurama Herb
180 Gold
3 Charges

A healing herb that grows wildly in the peak of Kyushu. The consumer is healed by 80 when used. This herb is used in most basic potions, giving them the healing touch. Merchants who seek it's healing powers must travel to Mt. Kyushu, where most of the herbs grow there.

Tengu Herb
360 Gold
3 Charges

A healing but bitter herb grown secretly by the Tengu Ogres. The consumer is healed by 160 when used. The Tengu Ogres used this secret medicine to cure severe battle wounds. If applied on a wound, the wound will recover in 2 days!

Miracle Pills
710 Gold
3 Charges

A pack of pills with a great and enhanced healing effect made by several crushed herbs. The consumer is healed by 300 when used. This is created by several unknown herbs known only by the merchants, or those who take the honors class in the Japanese academies of Biology. But, this pill is said to bring back the life of the consumer when she/he dies, according to legend.

Shuriken
550 Gold
3 Charges
11 Second Cooldown

A thick, large, and heavy shuriken used by Fuma ninjas. When used, the shuriken will deal 165 damage in a line (Shockwave based). The ninja of the Fuma relied on such lightwiegt weapons. The Fuma clan member, Fuma Kotaro, created the first lightweight shuriken, complete with excellent grip, weighing 14 ounces to allow fast throws, a fortified frame to give it the ability to cleave through multiple enemy units, an unbreakable material cover, and unbelieveable sharp edges able to rip armor to shreds.

The herbs and pills are just life potions of three different scales made more easily attainable than life potions currently are (the instaheal ones available at Shrine of Merchants). Don't like it.

Shuriken might be too hard to balance. They cost a lot and deal almost no damage -> no reason to use them alone. If the damage is buffed, they would be horribly strong in groups, for hero killing and laning. (especially as shockwave as it passes through groups) Don't really like this one either, but thanks for suggestions anyway.

You should see the changelog on the corner of the first post. Just updated it today.

Honestly, I'm going to have to be blunt.

Those items are worthless.
Why?

Shrine of Merchants gives potions/mana potions that heal instantly on use. Why bother getting those herbs when you can get a health potion for free? As well, if you don't have a shrine of merchants, get a scroll of healing/mana instead, those instantly work too.

Shuriken in the other hand ... I'm just against something like that. Shrines of wealth can make it very, very easy to get a lot of those. Give that to a Ronin, Ninja, No-Dachi, or even a Yari? You have something that will 'easily' make them able to kill most heroes with ease.

I suppose you didn't read my other suggestion did you. These items are for a purpose if you look here:

I submitted this idea before you posted so look at it before you post.

... Fairly certain my logic stands regardless of what it's 'for.' If anything, there's no point at all if you can get a stationary way of doing the same thing.

Secondly, I don't think it'd really work at all. There's no real way to 'balance' it. If it's to little, it's worthless, if it's more then worthless, then you'll have the heroes who are used to doing high amounts of damage (Ronin, Ninja, Yari, and No-Dachi.) using it as a finisher. Usually when facing them, it becomes one of you skalking off close enough to be finished by one.

You have no sense of items do you. You just say: Oh it's worthless, oh that's crappy, it's completely worthless, to every single thread that suggests an item, do you. Look, if you're just going to talk about only the cons of these items, I suggest you don't. How about you post a pro about these?

Maybe he thinks there is no pro to your items? Isn't he entitled to that?

I have defended some of your items, but come on, at the rate you're churning them out, it shouldn't be surprising that people find most of them kind of lacking. Maybe you shoudl try actually thinking about the comments you've received. Skirn is a skilled and experienced SL player (and so, I assume, are the rest of KoNL, though I haven't had the pleasure of playing with them); if he says there is something seriously wrong with your suggestion, there is probably something to it.
