WX should gain charge from being hit with a Morning Star


Recommended Posts

It'd be funny. Plus it makes sense with the Morning Star being an electrical weapon, and it might give players more reason to use a rarely-crafted item, albeit only on PvP-enabled servers. Also it'd retroactively justify that one afternoon in 2015 that I spent hitting my WX main friend with a Morning Star to see if I could get it to charge them. 

Electric Darts could do the same thing; I'm not sure if it would be a good idea for PvP balance to extend this to regular weapons under the influence of Volt Goat Jelly, but it would be both logically consistent and highly entertaining if it extended to all electrified weapons. 

I was going to add the suggestion that WX should gain charge when PvP attacking another WX who has the Electrification Circuit equipped and receiving the damage from that, but now I'm rethinking that, because it seems open to exploitation in the form of two WXes smacking each other back and forth forever to gain charge. Which would be hilarious, but maybe not very balanced. (I do think the Electrification Circuit shouldn't hurt an attacker who is themself a WX though.)

That's a fun idea, I don't think there is anything overpowered/ exploitative about charging up the meter since even if you leave it to itself it'll charge in an ingame day anyway, besides rapidly switching circuits isn't beneficial with circuits losing durability. It might only serve as a veeeeery niche emergency save to prevent getting damaged when two WX are caught under heavy rain. 

They should even make it so that the attacking WX should get as many charges as the electrification circuits the defending WX has equipped, up to 3 charges at once.
