Get out the little blue pills defenses, because I suggest a new spell- Impotence!
Spell has 2 effects- weakens all building hitpoints within its radius and reduces the damage done by defensive units / towers in its radius. Percent of 'weakening' would increase with the level of the spell
Would make an excellent intro to kick off an attack and would fit well in combination with other spells (drop Impotence, followed by lightning or rage, etc).
sounds cool. what would the stats be??????????????
Costs $30,000 Gold for level one.
20% reduction in damage and hitpoints.
Lasts 15 seconds
(Reduction in damage and hitpoints increases, not the duration).
For instance, a level 8 archer tower would do 39 damage per second (reduced by 9) and the hitpoints value would be 528 instead of 660.
It's a really good idea but the freeze spell does the same but instead of weakening defenses it stops them completely.
Maybe if it had a radius of like 15 it could be really great :)

Love Spell would be nice, Impotence sounded a bit more s.xual.
Can this impotence spell weaken the ground too, where the buildings are standing?
What would weakening the ground do?Quote:

I can't figure out if it makes the defenses loose some dps, or reduces the amount of hitpoints.
it does bothQuote:

Absolutely the duration could be cut back.
The idea is that it reduces the overall PERCENT of damage per second and hitpoints in a given radius.
For example:
I drop the spell on an archer tower with 1,000 hps. The initial reduction is 20% of hit points and damage, meaning that the archer tower temporarily has 800 hps. I manage to get a giant or two up close while the effect is still on and do 500 damage to the tower before the spell expires. Its hps are now 500 (300 left from my attack, plus 200 deducted during spell period) out of 1,000.
Basically the idea is that the spell gives you an opportunity (for a narrow window) to get in and try to do critical damage to select buildings / defenses before it goes away. Similar to freeze spell, but the defenses get to fire the whole time (just with reduced impact).

Is that easier to implement / more effective or not effective enough?
Hopefully SC will add this it sounds awesome:)
