Augris, the Spellweaver

I got creative.

Just so you know, I was confused just WRITING his ultimate, so I can only imagine how you must feel reading it. Think Invoker cross Earth Spirit... with a lot of something else attached.

Some mages have power over the elements, wielding torrents of flame and sleets of hail to expunge their enemies. Others can summon ancient creatures from the darkness, and still others are demonologists who can bend even Greater Spectral Consorts to their will. Yet few mages can wield the essence of magic itself - and those who can often end up with their head exploding.

Such was the fate of Augris, dubbed the Spellweaver by his admirers and even his rivals. For such an incredibly complex spell as he wrought was beyond even his arcane might, and the academy was plunged into shock.

But it never occurred that such an outcome was by design. In his last moments, the spell had been completed, and Augris knew that he would be back. Sure enough, a child was born within the hour, that within the space of seven days had matured into a perfect copy of the Spellweaver. His sorcery had unlocked that ancient riddle - and now, whenever he dies, Augris is reincarnated, made anew, even stronger than before, keeping the magics of his previous life and blending them with deadly synergy.

So it is that he enters the Ancient War with utmost confidence. For when you are beyond the gaze of mortality, how can even gods stand in your way?

Arcane Blast: Slow duration increased to 1/1.5/2/2.5/3 seconds when cast on a target affected by Energic Chains. Deals a bonus 60/100/180/270/350 damage to targets missing at least 35% of their maximum mana.

Energic Chains: Chains duration increased to 3/3.5/4/4.5/5 when cast on a target affected by Veil of Chaos. If a target is struck by a Mana Bomb while chained, Energic Chains is spread to all other targets struck by the bomb. Arcane Blast damage on targets affected by Energic Chains increased by 30%.
Mana Bomb: Drains an additional 100/150/200/300/450 mana from targets affected by Veil of Chaos. Ministuns the targets for 0.3/0.4/0.5/0.6/0.75 seconds at the beginning and end of the duration if they were affected by Energic Chains.

new story protagonist confirmed

is 'W' an Ensnare? if thats the case its really weak compared to Ensnare

Oh wow... I actually forgot I posted this and was about to post it again.

Awkward.

To answer ^above... Energic Chains is a deliberately weak Ensnare, because of the synergy.

Veil of Chaos > Energic Chains > Mana Bomb. Some setup required, but if you get it off that's a 5 second AoE Ensnare with 300 damage, with a jumping Arcane Blast slow dealing ****tons of damage. It's like Rampage material.

So I actually really like this concept. It's a really interesting blend of spells, and his ult is what really sold me on the idea. Powering up each spell when you combo it off leads to really interesting plays and I'd love to be able to take this guy for a test drive.

...Though I should note that Veil of Chaos is completely busted with Finger of Death or Laguna Blade. :D

This is so cool! I love the unique skills and ultimate is the icing on this perfect cake!

Crazy Tom is right though, maybe you should put a damage cap of 150-200 per instance on veil of chaos?

Since Veil only works on damage from Augris himself I don't think it's necessary.

I can already see the EBlade Dagon builds.

Ah, I guess I missed that part the first time around. If it only works on his skills, it's definitely balanced as is.
