Default [Cosmetic] Make Eclipse Real Eclipse


I don't know if this was suggested or not but I don't find anything similar on the search...


What I suggest is simple :

Make the map become "night" (like Darkness) for a short time


Reason : See real eclipse ^^


Details :
  • Doesn't buff Balanar's Skills
  • Doesn't reduce Luna's vision
  • May trigger Lunar Blessing


Testmap :
By xBlackRose
By Cáno

It makes a real eclipse not just day night

Does the 'Night Effect' buffs NS too?

How about we make it the "night" during NS' ulti. It makes more sense since it's "eclipse" of a sort.

Though doing this poses a problem: What if NS' ulti during this time or the other way round? And what does it do?

T-UP

@schremba: it just gets dark. is it possible for darkness to creep in to the map starting from the left then moves to the right. so that it really has that "eclipse" feel? Same goes to NS's ulti.

So the darkess would come from the left side to the right of the map, then when it has fully covered the map, it will leave, going to the right until all the darkness is gone. like this.

As long as it isn't too distracting, a little wave of darkness sounds alright to me.

This is an epic change for a 5 second spell haha. The concept is there but the details must be ironed out.

T-Up!!

Is it codable that its only night (more dark) in the area around luna, like 1000 aoe? cause i think creatiing a night is too much for that skill, so null for now

I like the idea and all but what happens if somehow Luna uses refresher (we can't eliminate the possibility) mid spell, the darkness would overlap on itself an might look bad.

Great effect. Its a good restriction not to buff NS, but I think that will be hard to do.

But nevertheless, T-up!
