Hero/Spell Element Ideas

[Master-Hauan]

Okay, my map is going to be element themed. The element of your hero is predetermined based on your color and you select your primary attribute. I will have various elements such as Fire, Water, Earth, Air, etc. So for each element, I will have 3 heroes (1 for each primary attribute), and 12 abilities. (4 spells for each hero)

I haven't decided which elements to include in this map, nor have I decided on the models of the heroes or the abilities. Thats where you guys come in.

-What elements would you like to see in an arena type map?
-For each of those elements, what models for heroes could I use for that element?
-What spells would those heroes use?
-What primary attribute would those heroes have?

A +rep for good ideas. I'll edit this post later for spells that I like.
----------------------------------------

If you can tell us which ones you decide to use, it'd be easier to make suggestions for all the other criteria you're looking for.

Thanks guys, I've got a pretty good idea about what elements I'm gonna use. And I've decided to use.

Fire, Water, Earth, Wind/Air, Ice, Nature, Storm, Arcane, Metal, Dark, Holy, and Cosmic.

Some people make question what Cosmic and Metal might be. Cosmic would represent things that have to do with space, like meteors or a black hole. Metal would be something like mechanical or abilities that are based on moves that use steel weapons or something like that.

Fire, earth, shadow, light, nature, water...

Firelord, Tauren, Necromancer, Archmage (spirit form), Ancient Protector, Sea Elemental...

I could possibly use nature in some way, but I would have to figure out a difference between Earth and Nature. Anyone who could come up with something also gets +rep

 

[Razed]

Mother Nature = Earth, Nature, Water, etc. No big task to find out the difference?

When thinking of Earth, think of Rock Golems, sand, chunk of rocks, earthquakes, etc.

When thinking of Nature, think of forests, walking trees (Ancient Protector), etc.

It's basically Brown (earth) VS Green (nature).

Oh god, I'm, at that very moment, working on an element hero arena!

Man, i could offer you my help! Do you have any terrain done? I've got a few triggers ready and we could team up if you want, i planned to solo this map but as i see someone else got the good idea to do such an arena!

My terrain is 80% done and it includes fire, water, nature, ground, lightning, ice, shadow and light!

tell me if you want me to help!

 

[Master-Hauan]

Thanks for the offer, but I kinda want to do this one solo. I do, however, feel it would be nice if we could toss some ideas around.

Yeah ok, let,s just ask questions/give ideas/comments trought PMs, keep it mainly secret!

 

[SarChasm]

Fire
Water
Wind
Earth
Nature
Death
Spirit
Darkness
Light
Holy
Chaos
Arcane
Cosmic
Psionic
Astral
Rock
Metal
Poison
Storm
Lightning
Ice
Bone

Just to name a few. If you can tell us which ones you decide to use, it'd be easier to make suggestions for all the other criteria you're looking for.

Though just in my personal opinion, I'd rather see a map with, say, four elements, and the champions from each one duke it out in a team hero arena. Just my opinion though. =P
