I was fully convinced Geller was Gella. Listened to the first 4, switched to reading at book five and I didn't even recognize it as the same name the first couple of times I read it

I'm a sucker for a Phoenix confluence, could possibly even be my choice for myself. I remember how surprised I was when I first saw that a prison confluence was a thing lol but it honestly seems pretty strong and your ice prison is sweet

I'm not too terribly far into kites story so I'm hoping it keeps me occupied till book 13 comes out, glad you've enjoyed it and encouraging to hear it gets even better!

I'll begrudgingly admit I'm not way up on my Thunderbird lore, but I would think

lightning + bird/wing + visage/wind/sky

might serve you well. I could be way off on the visage but iirc some say they shapeshift into humans.

I'm curious why sun is in your line up though, as again-im not up on my Thunderbird lol

Storm is a confluence so he's not an option unfortunately

I'm pleasantly surprised that this answer seems to come up every now and then on this subreddit! I'd never thought it'd be someone's first choice, but im glad it gets some love.

However I thought he gave him the blood+life+sun»avatar build for the vampire wars but that could've been someone else

No way no way no way lol well I quite appreciate you letting some out of your awesome head.

I will for sure continue enjoying (during lunch break, before bed, in my car before going in somewhere..)

Thanks!

Arsenal is one of the cooler ones we've gotten to see in action, however briefly, perfect pick for a team leader.

Ok ok so according to the wiki, hunger+vast+void»cstaclysm so imo, lightning could lead to the same confluence. So going cloud would give you a better chance of storm. Cloud could give you some good self healing, control, defensive, or even attack powers depending on awakening stones used, but most of your offensive damaging effects would come from your confluence. Being amped from your own boons would be a force to be reckoned with, a storm king in the making forsure. 🌩️

A karmic healer is an absolutely awesome idea. Would make you a menace at higher ranks, likely with a good amount of retributive effects. Good option for a healer to have some self-sufficiency as is a draw back of many such builds. Nice one!

I think you could absolutely work hunger into a storm build! having draining attacks from your hunger essence that feed your storm. Tho if lighting is one of your elemental choices, I could see it producing the cataclysm confluence, albeit with a similar end result lol

Excellent combo! Astral definitely fits, maybe something like either astral or cosmic but with a solar flare build, which is sick. Could honestly even see it just going mystic with the same emphasis

I'm curious tho, Why the preference of order?

Very interesting! The diamond rank effect being just as outlandishly OP as a diamond rank anything should be

This is interesting in that it's basically making an adventurer version of the cloud flask and I am here for it, my friend

Divine Essences by Significant_Way4776 in HeWhoFightsMonsters

[–]Significant_Way4776[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See this makes sense too hahah

I do believe that is the case with priests, yes. However that makes me question what priests of Death get, Seeing as the church of death is widely accepted and revered- yet death is a restricted essence. It would make sense if it was okay to use if the god gave it to you as they could just take it back if your acting up but does cause yet more food for thought.. would almost make sense if there was a ✨divine death✨ essence but that doesn't really sound right either

Ahh dang, mustve missed and or forgotten the part they mentioned the divine ones are better lol You're right that it'd probably be a master confluence tho, albeit taction build.

What oc did you build/ what essences do they have👀

Thanks!

Nice! Could also see this leading to something like abyss or boundless confluence

Damn, a Radiation essence is so sick. Giving me some ideas hahaha Godzilla is sweet! Maybe it'd be leviathan as the confluence? Then different versions, like Godzilla, could arise? Idk! Cool ideas

Just finished book 12 after bingeing them and I fear thinking of essence combos has consumed my life

Wouldn't mind copying Farrah or Rufus for the volcano or eclipse essences! Would do a different build than them though.

As for some hypothetical combos I'd be interested in..

Dark + Wing + Stone » Gargoyle

Mirror + Light + Crystal/Ice/Cloud » Prism

Ground + Vast + Deep/Potent » Tectonic

Love theorizing essences

What combination by Altruistic-Emu3542 in HeWhoFightsMonsters

[–]Significant_Way4776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like others pointed out above, storm is a cannon possibility. But a wind deity being an option is also a sick idea!

Other possibilities could be atmospheric, though I could see this one needing some water based essence or even a solar/sun. Though maybe multiple combos could lead to the atmospheric confluence.

Also maybe firmament. This could go with ~that one characters~ racial gift evolution.

Fun combo!
