Prediction Poll for the upcoming chapter.
Added 2021-02-02 14:53:26 +0000 UTCThere are potential spoilers in this post, depending on how religious you are about it. I don't really think there are - what's going to happen next is fairly obvious - but I figured I'd write a nice long thing here to give people a heads up and enough time to exit out if they don't want even a sniff of a spoiler.

Right then.
Elaine's [Pyromancer] class has hit 128, and that means, classing up time! Woohoo!
Which element do you think she'll be after? Staying with fire, a fire evo, something else? Make your call now!
Comments
So I understand why some people have been guessing that the new class might be related to the golden crow but i was thinking more along the line of the phoenix. Unlike the golden crow it is associated with healing aka its ability to be reborn from ashes. Only thing is that I don't know what element it would be. Perhaps like the metal element have numerous variation one of the other elements that fit like inferno or fire would have a nirvanic flames variation, perhaps even a it could even be a triple element combanation, Fire, light and dark.

2021-02-03 07:23:57 +0000 UTCSo side jumping to another element would be pointless at this stage and if it was going to be done it would have been done at lvl32 to fix the hasty, and probably bad, selection of fire-bug before it turned into pyromancer. Now lets look at the advance versions of fire. Fire + Fire = inferno: more damage is cool but Elaine dealing more damage is a far below back up plan just before running away entirely so this is low priority. Fire + Metal = magic metal: would require her to actually be around a specific magic metal a lot so just not possible. Fire + Wind = storm: If anyone has the magic power to actually make storm useful it would be Elaine with her busted +1000% from [Oath] and it should let her fly. While good choice on paper, just like inferno her purpose isn't to do wide scale dmg so its overall a waste. Fire + Light = radiance: Super hot, super bright, and possibly super fast is exactly what she would need. Potential for more focused damage dealing like she did with turning her fire into death beams against the goblins but better. A supportive selection here could provide buffs/healing to all within her light or linger with her flames and an offensive would deal damage in the same area instead. Rapidash should evolve into a faster version, hopefully straight up teleportation. Overall good choice and most likely choice. Fire + Water = steam: Better AoE dmg and good in long fights at the cost of doing basically nothing against non-organic opponents. Overall bland at best and a detriment at worst. Fire + Wood = ash: Can do damage but worse than inferno, can do AoE but worse than steam/storm, can do good in long fights but more situational than steam. Only think it really tops at should be staying power in using destroyed wood from conjuration/environment as power but Elaine is already a healer with a stupid high mana capacity so we win those fights anyway. Overall does nothing particularly well except in the one thing we already beat everyone even remotely near our level in already. Fire + Earth = lava: When fire is inefficient for mana usage and has poor stopping power why not make fire that just doesn't stop burning and has literal stopping power? Mixing in earth gives us potential for better shields in addition to [Veil] while increasing our offensive potential with physical damage in addition to fire damage. Downside is flight is basically not going to happen with this combo unless she stands on some floating volcanic rock or something. Fire + Dark = pyronox: Cleansing flames for a ranger is good utility but does nothing that the main class can't already do. Immediate damage is likely reduced in exchange for increased DoT based damage and potential cursing/debuffing. If we want to function less as a damaging class and more as a control support this is the way to go. Also maybe can get around [Oath] in most cases by debilitating opponents into submission to avoid them from getting killed by her teammates instead. Overall the only potential options are pyronox for control, radiance for flexibility and support, and lava for defense with my prediction being for radiance. PRAISE THE SUN!!!

2021-02-03 04:53:21 +0000 UTCWould Steam let her make people explode by instantly boiling all the fluids in their body?

Selkie
2021-02-03 02:27:27 +0000 UTCI tried to list every single option out I really did
Selkie
2021-02-03 02:26:48 +0000 UTCIt's black fire that burns away disease.
Todd Kloos
2021-02-03 00:30:00 +0000 UTCWhat is Pyronox? I'm not really clear on that one
Walter
2021-02-02 22:44:28 +0000 UTCSeraphim type class
2021-02-02 22:37:25 +0000 UTCIf you are going for flying it best would be Ash, Magic metal (gold?), Storm, maybe Radiance. I think some sort of golden metal for the gold crow or rangers eagle and a Phoenix for Ash or Thunderbird for storm or Sun and moon for radiance.
Razyr
2021-02-02 21:49:24 +0000 UTCOr Inferno. The golden crow is a being of extreme flame after all.
Gage Ostrander
2021-02-02 19:44:11 +0000 UTCAnd magic metal, you're getting too close to magneto
Chris
2021-02-02 19:39:47 +0000 UTCIf you go to Storm, and she starts flying, then Marvel's going to come after you
Chris
2021-02-02 19:38:35 +0000 UTCany chance for a refresher on the various elements?
Nematrec
2021-02-02 19:21:47 +0000 UTCNot sure that would work. People would keep coming up to her and asking “Do you remember, 21st night of September?”
Obran
2021-02-02 18:59:17 +0000 UTCits metaanalysis but that last option is bait. if it were the correct answer, it would be among the listed options
Ranzbart
2021-02-02 18:06:23 +0000 UTCCelestial Metal of some sort? It would be an interesting tie in with the odd book with magic metals she found and kind feel like it relates to fire a bit.
2021-02-02 18:02:25 +0000 UTCTriple class! Earth Wind and Fire! 😆
Vyktor
2021-02-02 17:53:32 +0000 UTCI cannot imagine anything other then Storm or Radiance. Storm if she decides to go against everyone's advice and wants to fly. Radiance would likely add oofph to her attacks and give her distance healing or AoE abilities. Considering how she passed on helping out for the genocide of the literal army of death that threatens humanity (really? It was that hard to stomach?), I think she'll go Radiance. Pyronox could be an outlier, maybe it would synergize with the ''Moon'' aspect of her first class and it would be thematically correct with the novel's title, no?
Celsica
2021-02-02 16:59:27 +0000 UTCWhat I like about Storm is that Night said he'd kill her if she chose it. So now it would be cool if there was some urgent reason she has to pick it lol
David Brims
2021-02-02 16:46:32 +0000 UTCGolden Crow -> Radiance
Grissly1000
2021-02-02 16:27:06 +0000 UTCObsidian? Obsidian sounds nice, but what a shot in the dark it would be
Thransk
2021-02-02 16:11:55 +0000 UTCI was originally going to say radiance, but then I thought Wind would give her thrust so she could fly like ironman. While earth would give her ironman armor.
Obran
2021-02-02 16:10:09 +0000 UTCBetting on wind. I still think optimal class for her mage side is mist. She wants to fly and currently has a movement skill working towards that. Going ranger mage-wind has the highest possibility of providing flight of all the options.

2021-02-02 15:57:45 +0000 UTCHeart!
Borindak
2021-02-02 15:50:26 +0000 UTCIf she is looking for something to merge into her healing class she should go for steam or radiance. Steam because it gives more versatility or radiance because it matches thematically.
Andrew
2021-02-02 15:43:25 +0000 UTCStorm. She’s been explicitly warned against it, which is always a good sign. Could give her cool flight skills which she wouldn’t be able to resist. Plus Storm was always the coolest X-woman.
Lord Falco
2021-02-02 15:34:10 +0000 UTCI'd pick storm, if only to prove wrong the guy that badmouthed it a few chapters ago. She'll probably pick Radiance though...
Seiryus
2021-02-02 15:33:18 +0000 UTCThat pun... Fine. I'll vote plasma just for you
jimi robert-jones
2021-02-02 15:30:09 +0000 UTCPersonally, Radiance is boring, even if its the current Top. It overlaps to much with her Healer Class. Same for Pyronox. And Inferno, while an "upgrade" doesn't add much either. STORM on the other Hand, has a lot of potential, more so since its considered Rare, and is heavily suggested to be more than just rain and lightning. It has the Potential to synergize with her Healer Class, without Overlapping. Another option would be Ash. It could be a nice contradiction to her Healer Class, while at the same time offering some kind of synergy.
Osamaru Ta
2021-02-02 15:27:14 +0000 UTCPlasma, obvs. She's a healer.
A B
2021-02-02 15:23:33 +0000 UTCOr Dark as sync so the her moonlight skill
Shinigami188 .
2021-02-02 15:18:00 +0000 UTCWe need to remember,that she wants to be able to fly with her magic. I can see an argument for something like magical metal provided she can control it and make herself fly by controlling her armour. Maby she got sick of a purely offensive class and goes more in the direction of a Tankhealer
Shinigami188 .
2021-02-02 15:16:53 +0000 UTCFireball is boring...
Coes
2021-02-02 15:15:31 +0000 UTC[Radiance]. [Laser Beam] can punch through armour, defensive skills and no dodging by speedsters! As for AOE, at high-levels, she can cast a [Micro-Fusion Star].
lenkite
2021-02-02 15:08:55 +0000 UTCThe top 9 options!
Selkie
2021-02-02 14:58:47 +0000 UTCI feel radiance is more in sync with constellation but also Night asked her to pick the ranger related class so i feel like is gonna be simple fire?
Potation
2021-02-02 14:58:34 +0000 UTCCan you remind us what is adjacent to fire? :)
