Mana Bomb

Description
Ladies and Gentleman... for all of us who love to fight hordes of enemies but hate to get stuck when they swarm you, I present... the Area-Of-Effect Fus-Ro-Dah Spell: MANA BOMB!

Enough with the catchy intro. Let's do this.

First of all, this spell can be bought by talking to Farengar, in Whiterun or by going to the Archmage's quarters in the College of Winterhold (it's on the floor).

Now, what is this? When you fire this spell you send an enourmous blast of energy that pushes everything and everyone away. It does not inflict damage (well, probably except fall damage), but NPCs will see this as an attack and guards, for example, will start to attack you if you do this on a city. It is very useful when you're fighting a ton of Draugrs at the same time and you can't even move because they have surrounded you. In those cases all you have to do is deploy the bomb and watch them fly (and then, if you still feel unsafe, you are free to run away).

Its charge time is not very big (1 sec) and its effects are really cool to watch (and useful, in my opinion!), but it does cost quite a bit of mana. If you think this is unbalanced please say it in the comments. I tried to make this cool but still not making fights too easy.

VERSIONS:

1.01 - Added the spell tome to the Archmage's quarters
1.00 - First release

---
KNOWN BUGS:

- When you release the spell without moving you will briefly see a dialog saying you can pick up the "Mana Bomb Explosion". I have no idea why this is happening. Until I figure this out please just ignore it.


Hope this is cool and useful!

Really fun, and satisfying sound. I didn't even know it was from mass effect.

Picking up the mana bomb explosion imo is not so much a bug as pure awesomeness.

When combined with the master of time and space mod you can pick the bomb up and store it. When you do this you can go into your inventory and drop this ITEM...and it releases it...So you could theoretically cause alot of mayham by dropping a half dzen mana bombs without the spell power up time.

If possible I would like to see this added as something you can turn into a favorite item.

I agree with some mexican. should do shock damage and drain mana plus perhaps health too but mainly mana :] and while the targets are mid air is a good time for it to drain the mana and health to give to the caster. :]

it shold also do shock damge and the shock should drain and absourb there manna and health by at least 50% just saying sence its called a manna bomb but it sounds cool im down loading it
Xeta 25 May, 2013 @ 12:51pm
