Number 64: Dark Monolith Dragon (Equip Spell Come-back)

[Plazmavore]

Trying to make equip spells a bit more useful. could do with some help with OCG :(

 

 

3 Level 4 monsters

Cannot be destroyed by card effects as long as it has Xyz Material. You can equip as many Equip spell cards as possible to this card. Once per turn, you can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card: select 1 Equip Spell card from your deck and equip it with this card. Whilst this card is face-up on the field, deduct the difference between this card's ATK and DEF from any battle damage you take.

You can equip as many Equip spell cards as possible to this card.

This part is redundant, since you can still, only equip a total of 5.

Whilst this card is face-up on the field, deduct the difference between this card's ATK and DEF from any battle damage you take.

Considering this card's ATK and DEF equal a total of 5600, that is a bit absurd, as far as this sort of effect goes. Mostly, because it feels like your trying to make it half-assed, when you could just sum it up and be all: "While this card is face-up on the field, you take no Battle Damage". Since, really, I highly doubt anyone could inflict more then 5000 damage, from a battle involving this card.
Anyway, with that it mind, you want to be cautious with this sort of effect then.

He said "deduct the difference between this card's ATK and DEF from any battle damage you take". Which means [new_damage = old_damage - (this.ATK - this.DEF)]. The point is that originally these 2 are equal so that you don't reduce anything, but when you increase this card's ATK by equips, it starts to absorb damage.

That said card's bad. In all honesty it's only the detach effect that really matters here, and it's definitely not worth a 3x4. Needs a lot of tweaking before it can be playable.

Hmmm...let's see...

 

For starters, calling it "Number 64" bugs me, since Number 64 is already a real card. 2800/2800 is a bit high for a Rank 4, even if it uses 3 Materials. One of those stats should probably be a bit lower.

 

The effect of equipping Equip Spells doesn't do anything. In order for that effect to work, you have to state where the Equip Cards are coming from. The Deck? Graveyard? All ones already face-up on the Field? Without clarification, the effect isn't saying anything.

 

I would probably word that last effect differently, depending on what you're trying to have it do. "While you control this face-up card, reduce all Battle Damage you take by an amount equal to the difference between this card's ATK and DEF."
