A canonical Gandalf

<< < (4/11) > >>

dkbluewizard:
LordofLinks, yes that is what Diewalkure and I were saying. We hoped the stance change would be replaced with Narya passive/bubble active power, and Glamdring be a passive/lightning sword ability. If these two were implemented, Gandalf's role wouldn't change and he would have the feel of something new!

lordoflinks:
I apologise for the misunderstanding. I think now would be a good time to put together a formal proposal, and I shall leave that to people who have a better idea of what is going on as clearly I can't read  :D

Melkor Bauglir:
Are you 100% sure, Gandalf doesn't already have the bubble. Because he had in previous versions (it was an automated ability that triggered if Gandalf took more than a certain amount of damage in one instance).
Furthermore, I could write extensively why I don't like things like random stance systems and that in gameplay terms, historical accuracy doesn't exist while being a hero who's all over the place, i.e. a mess, does. But that is not really important.

The thing is, Gandalf proposals are not new, and many of them boiled down to the idea of expanding Gandalf's array of spells to the facets, he as a character had and which aren't represented in the game. Long story short: There was not a single change, in fact Gandalf got changed back to his of BfME roster of spells. Seriously though, there is a reason why Ealendril's avatar is Gandalf. ;)

My last point is basically, that this whole "make everything canonical" is basically an idea, destroying it's own goal: A BfME game that is truely canonical would above all else be the epitome of boring and strangely quite uninspired, too. Iconic heroes like Galadriel and Sauron would probably be fortress upgrades, funny (and gamelaywise extremely interesting) stuff like "Power of Past Ages" as well as even the fact that Imladris fight in the War of the Ring at all needed to be removed. What I'm trying to say, is that this "canonising" completely screws over the game. (And in fact already has at some points, where fairly unique, yet, let's say, too "colourfull" or "silly" concepts or units where (practically) removed.)
Thus, I'm quite content with the current Gandalf, I can only repeat myself and add, that the only change, I see happening, is to add a buttonless ability that gives a minor bonus, like fear resistance to surrounding troops.

OakenShield224:
I feel like Gandalf the Grey was more of the wanderer who'd need extra protection from the dangers of Middle Earth while Gandalf the White was usually with other people who he inspired. Maybe the bubble shield could be for Grey and would temporarily give bonus armour and knockback resistance. When he becomes White, the armour bonus is replaced with some sort of temporary buff to surrounding units to symbolise how Narya inspired people.

Slawek56703:
I can see Gandalf with Narya stances to show that he is send to this world to help people of Middle Earth win over Sauron but i have diffrent idea from Edain 3 Hero Submod Gandalf had there Narya power that buffed others when he ecome White it was improved and he could even  join powers of The One Ring and Narya  on his Ring forms . I show my idea concidering stances and Narya .
