BlissGems Expansion

---

Thirty-three gems built on the BlissGems addon API. Each one has four abilities and two passives.

Gems come in two tiers. A Tier 1 gem gives you its first ability and its first passive. Upgrading to Tier 2 unlocks the other three abilities and the second passive.

Abilities draw on the same energy pool as the base plugin and show up in the same cooldown bar.

Every gem is configurable in config.yml without touching the jar: cooldowns under abilities.cooldowns, and damage, radius, range, duration and potion levels of every ability under gems.<gem>.<ability>. That covers over 400 values across all 33 gems. Leave a line out and the built-in value is used.

Area attacks skip players you have trusted, so a Blizzard or a Meteor will not land on your own team. Anything an ability spawns, such as turrets, clones and orbiting boulders, is removed when it expires, when the server stops, and on the next startup after a crash.

Many of the newer gems interact with the world itself: bridges of light, crystal walls, iron cages, painted ink, holes blown through walls, trees that burst out of the ground. Every one of those blocks is temporary. They cannot be mined, blown up or pushed with pistons, they never drop items, containers and unbreakable blocks are never touched, and everything is put back exactly as it was when it expires, when the server stops, or on the next startup after a crash. Other effects, such as X-Ray Window, Mirage, Fake World and Blackout, only change what the target sees on their own screen.

Controls

Every gem uses the same four inputs:

Passives only apply while the gem is in your off hand.

The gem quietly records where you have been for the last five seconds, and two of its abilities spend that recording.

Abilities:

• Rewind (30s): Your trail unspools backwards and drops you where you stood five seconds ago, with the health you had then — capped at your current maximum, so it heals but never overheals. Needs a full recording, so it does nothing in the first seconds after you log in.

• Windswept: Permanent Speed.
• Storm Born (Tier 2): Permanent Strength, but only while it is raining or storming where you stand.

Sonic Gem

Sound that armour cannot stop.

Every point of damage this gem deals goes through the same channel the Warden uses, which means armour and shields do not reduce any of it.
