Evocations-Brand synergy
This I think would be good at first on these scenarios (while adding strategy):
- Finding that whip of eletroctution at D:1 wouldn't greatly ease the game at the first levels since you would get a lower damage because of your low evocations skill.
- Reaching Lair, while training axes with that good artifact axe of electrocution you found, would allow for turning off the electrocution brand and casting the Fire Brand spell when fighting Hydras. Or turning off electrotuction to cast Freezing Aura while fighing a Fire Dragon.
Since the brand power is linked to evocations, it would allow their use on the later levels on a 15 rune game (not just holy wrath for most cases).
The brands could also be allowed to inflict these effects (very small chances at low evocations):
- Flaming brand: chance of Sticky Flame
- Freezing brand: chance of Ensorcelled Hibernation
- Electrocution brand: chance of Static Discharge
Its important to notice its not an annoying feature since the evocable brands are permanent at will, as mencioned before.
