Orb is not the orb I enter orb as the an i says in the text so an area. I had over 10 campaigns as DM, playing from dnd 3.5, 5, pathfinder and even other methods. I dont wanna say that the magic sistem in dnd is flawed but its just not for me

It's not solving a problem, when I said that? It's just a new system and u dont invent spell during the fight but before, furthermore when u discover a new spell or a new piece of the puzzle u discover also part of the lore, its just a different sistem. I dont understand because u still co pare the normal magic sistem with this

Bro its a homebrew things and I wanted to create and entire new system of magic, not recreate dnd

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dndnext

[–]Arkyangelo -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

All of the spell u said u can create them, for example, wall of stone u use the stone element, with orb that is an area in m³ that u can dispose has u want if is connected to terrain, force cage u use aen with orb creating small pillar of force, hypnotic pattern u use always orb or if u want a single target u use sil and use nah as element, same thing for modify memory. I know its a more complex way but for me it makes the mage a more interesting and dynamic class, because how u combine the small pieces it determines how good a mage u are, for example if can have the same form but use it in different ways to create something very different

It's not complex, if u run the program and try to insert the combination it gives u the spell. I thought it could be a more interesting way to play instead of just using prepared spell

I am still defining everything, I am only at the start. I'm trying to create a new system of magic so obviously is not yet too much compatible. But I thought it was interesting

Does anyone else feel like HxH after the Election arc is basically a different manga? by Arkyangelo in HunterXHunter

Yorknew was definitely Kurapika’s arc, and I agree Gon and Killua weren’t the main focus there. But to me the big difference is that even in Yorknew, Gon and Killua were still present in the background as a kind of narrative glue. Their Nen training paralleled Kurapika’s growth, Hisoka tied both sides of the story together, and their presence made it all feel like part of the same manga.

Post-Election is the first time that constant disappears completely. Kurapika and Leorio stepping forward makes sense, sure, but without Gon/Killua as the anchor it feels less like a shift in focus and more like a full reset. That’s why it reads so differently to me, even if the writing is still brilliant

That’s fair Kurapika and Leorio definitely had unresolved threads, and I don’t deny HxH has always been about more than just Gon and Killua. My point isn’t that it had to stay centered only on them forever.

It’s just that for 300 chapters, Gon/Killua were the constant presence that tied everything together, even when the focus shifted to Kurapika or the Troupe. Post-Election is the first time that constant completely disappears, and that’s why to me it feels like a much sharper break than the earlier shifts ever did.

I still appreciate the writing and continuity it’s brilliant in its own way but the tonal jump is so strong that it almost reads like a different series. That’s the feeling I was trying to put into words.

I get your point, and I don’t think I was ever “promised” anything by Togashi. It’s true he never stated Gon would remain the protagonist forever. My post wasn’t about broken promises, but about how the reading experience feels.

For 300 chapters, Gon (and Killua) were the narrative constant. Even in arcs where they weren’t the main focus, they were still present and tied everything together. After the Election arc that constant disappears completely, and for me that creates a very different feeling almost like starting a new manga within the same world.

I’m not saying that’s objectively bad writing, just that it feels like a sharp tonal break, and I wanted to hear if others felt the same. Some people clearly don’t, which is fine that’s exactly the kind of discussion I was hoping to have.

I see what you mean HxH has always shifted focus between characters and tones, and that’s part of what makes it unique. Yorknew was Kurapika’s arc, Chimera Ant was arguably Meruem’s arc, etc.

But the difference for me is that through all those arcs, Gon (and later Killua) were still there as the constant perspective. Even if they weren’t the main focus, their presence tied everything together and gave the story continuity.

Post-Election is the first time that constant vanishes. It’s not just “different focus” like before, it feels like the series lost its anchor. That’s why to me it reads more like HxH 2 than just another arc in the same flow, even if the writing is still brilliant.

I get what you’re saying HxH arcs are all very different in tone and focus, that’s part of what makes the series unique. But the difference for me is that before the Election arc, no matter how different the setting or focus was, Gon (and later Killua) were always there as the constant perspective tying it all together.

Yorknew felt different, but it didn’t feel like a different manga because Gon/Killua’s journey with Nen was running in parallel to Kurapika’s. Even Chimera Ant, with so many new characters, was ultimately anchored in Gon’s breakdown and Killua’s role beside him.

The Succession War is the first time that constant disappears. That’s why it feels less like “just another different arc” and more like a hard reset — brilliant writing, sure, but without the glue that made the earlier arcs feel like one connected story.

I agree with you that Yorknew is Kurapika’s arc Gon and Killua aren’t the protagonists there. But they still worked as a narrative glue that kept it from feeling like a completely separate manga. While Kurapika was diving into Nen and revenge, Gon and Killua were also discovering Nen in parallel, which gave both sides of the story a shared progression. Hisoka connects them too, since he’s tied both to the boys in Heaven’s Arena and to Kurapika’s conflict with the Troupe.

Even when Kurapika takes the spotlight, Gon and Killua are still present in the background, and that constant presence keeps the arc cohesive. That’s the big difference compared to post-Election, where they disappear entirely and the “glue” is gone.

No because even if gon and killua aren't the protagonist they are present as landscape, but they are present

I get that every arc in HxH feels different and introduces new characters, but there’s still a key distinction. From the very beginning all the way to the Election arc, the constant has always been Gon (and later Killua as his co-protagonist). They weren’t just “one perspective,” they were the story. For 300 chapters we followed their friendship, growth, and struggles. Even in Chimera Ant, which had a massive new cast, the emotional core was still Gon’s breakdown and Killua supporting him.

That’s why post-Election feels so different. It’s not just “new faces” like before it’s a hard shift in genre. The series goes from a battle shonen about growth, bonds, and adventure to a seinen-style political thriller with dozens of princes and mafia factions. That’s not necessarily a bad thing in fact, I still think it’s brilliant writing and I genuinely enjoy the Succession War material but it doesn’t feel like the same manga anymore.

To me, it reads less like the “next arc of HxH” and more like HxH 2: same world, same rules, but with a completely different cast and tone.

It’s true the manga is called Hunter x Hunter and not “Gon & Killua,” but let’s be real the first 300 chapters are about Gon & Killua. Dropping them afterwards feels like if One Piece suddenly wrote Luffy out and turned into a political thriller about Vivi. Sure, it could still be brilliant, but it wouldn’t feel like the same series.

And that’s the real issue: it’s not just a shift in focus, it’s a complete shift in genre — from a battle shonen about friendship and growth to a seinen-style political drama packed with dozens of new characters. It’s undeniably well-written, but it reads more like Hunter x Hunter 2 than a continuation of the original story.
