Title: AOE damage / AOE Heal?
Post by: JadeKnightblazer on July 22, 2021, 04:20:53 pm
Is there a way to create an ability to AOE damage enemies and heal allies at the same time?

Even better yet, target 1 enemy and provide an AOE heal at the target or caster?

I tried making Formula 02 ( first spell does aoe damage, linked to another spell that does aoe healing), with 100% Spell Proc ASM.
The results are weird... It normally does damage to enemies, but can damage allies or heal hostile too.

Honestly I was hoping to have the caster use an Absorb HP spell with Distribute equipped. However Distribute can't trigger from self heals :(    Unless there is an ASM that allows self heals to active Distribute somewhere?

Seems like a very tall order. Only things that resemble that are Wish and Self Destruct.

If you mean a skill where you select the damage target, and then you select the healing target, then look into the Dual Cast asm hacks somewhere. I don't remember if they were finished.

It might be Jot5 exclusive, but there is a custom Phoenix summon that damages all enemies in range and heals all allies in range simultaneously, so it is possible, but iirc it was decently difficult to pull off. Definitely requires custom ASM, I dont think you can achieve this effect with the vanilla formulas.
