idea about a Full Plate mage with blood magic (spending life instead mana/focus to not fizzle)

the name of the thread already tell it.

i always wanted to play as a tank mage in different games , what about making this possible and to nerf it he would have to use blood magic that it wont be op

the blood magic remove all fizzle chances

and add magic resist pots , which give you a high magic resist for 2-3 seconds or smth

 

smth for hybrid players who want to mainly be melee and just use some spells like healing cure poison and want to be sure they wont fizzle with havy armor

 

Well, I will cede you the fact that it is an intriguing approach to balance out the fizzle mechanic.

Personally, I'm not a real big fan of "blood magic" mechanics, and tend to avoid its use in games that have the capability (Path of Exile for example), since it tends to end up with me dead, right quick.

But... It is an intriguing solution, none-the-less.

 

Nice concept, but you could elaborate a bit more about it.

uhmmm, maybe a combo between death shield of death magic tree and knights grace from heavy armor tree could grant this trade off you propose for a given time.
