I’ll help out with a list of things that need to be updated. Whew, this is a big endeavour!

Right I’m gonna get some coffee then be back to start on this

@Dudeious.Maximus if I have time, i’ll add new buffs/ailments and links to icons shared by posters into my post for easy collection

So I’m structuring it as follows: for each category (Buff, Ailment, Stack) I separate out completely new entries, vs. existing entries that need to be updated.

– I may have missed something so would be great if posters can -

  1. add anything I missed by numbering or specifying if it is 1) Buff, 2) Ailment, 3) Stack

  2. I used numbers and letters - if anyone wants to share a screenshot of the icon, please post with a number /letter too, e.g. 2) b) Element Link Recover HP.

The list for now — I checked HOTMs, League of Villains, Slayers, Underwild and Starfall. Also checked the recent Valhalla releases. Does not include unreleased heroes yet

I also added example heroes having the buff/ailment, to make it easier to find screenshots. (it is NOT meant to be a complete list!!! Just an example!!)

Some of the buffs/ailments here so far are unique/consistent, so I’m adding the turn duration (for Elemental Link for example). But for others below, maybe we need to leave number of turns out as we don’t know if new heroes will come out with these… (e.g. the buffs from Elradir’s, Glenda’s special skills)

**edited to move passive abilities to a separate section of the list, down to #5. They used to be part of #1 so the numbering by me and @ferg still uses 1-letter. thanks to @ferg and @Tess_01 for the input re Passive Abilities not exactly counting as buffs!

  1. Buffs - Totally New (includes Underwild Passive Skills)

a) Elemental Link Mana Gain - “Gives a small amount of mana per turn to all heroes of the same colored element for 4 turns. Undispellable” (HOTMs: Malicna, Frosth, Yang Mai, Elradir, Devana) Icon provided by @Radar1

  1. Buffs - Existing but description can be improved. E.g. the element link descriptions use thinks like “small boost”, but the cards have direct %s…

The doing part seems somewhat time consuming and boring… but there’s lots of people on the forum who will be all over that. Let me help out on the promotions side

popping in to ask - do we add HOTM resistances to the list? how about Underwild passive skills (e.g. start battle with 20% mana)? Edited - I think we do, I can see that the Midgard bonuses are included for example…

and if we do, do they count as Buffs? these are more like passive things that always apply, rather than buffs… they are also not Stacks, and certainly not Ailments…

@Mistress_of_Shadows can you send some pizza and gin over to me please lol

I think they are only buffs if they count in buff booster tourneys.

Maybe a separate category for Passive Skills?

Thanks for the huge amount of work you put in to this, @sleepyhead :clap: :clap: :clap:

Your whole list @sleepyhead is missing secondary passive effects from new hotm (or I’m blind) but they are definitely not in the original list so here two new ones(probably part of category 1):

thanks @Tess_01 that’s a good one, perhaps I should mark them separately later.

@ferg awesome thanks for the screenshots!

OK, found this:

So it seems a lot of the passive abilities are already in a thread, so don’t know if we still need them.
Haven’t looked how up to date this thread is, but probably we shouldn’t add passive abilities into the buff thread.

cool, I agree, I’m going to move the passive abilities out of the main list - but keep them separate in case we do want to include them somewhere later!

also re your question, icon will do - description not needed (though it does help)!

have to head out now, so will continue later - have started adding links to Ferg’s posts in the main list, so we can more easily track which icons are still missing.

Thanks, this one is already included in the original Davecozy post.

I wasn’t sure about this, as it seems to be the same as existing mana slow ailments - just from a different source and with a different duration. Does it overwrite other mana slow ailments like Telly’s?

thanks, I must have missed a few - I was looking at the Wiki for reference and the last entry I saw was Bertila. I peeked at the ones I had (Yang Mai, Elradir, Devana) plus Chakosszrot as he’s featured this month, but must have missed some in-between ones. Will take a look later
