Hiya. I thought of something really interesting. So what if the new spells that use shadow pips worked with the shadow blades? After all, they do have us use shadow pips just to cast, so why not add the shadow blades to boost damage?
Or at least we should have more spells that use Shadow Damage and not primary school damage, because to be honest, the shadow blades are kind of useless when all they can be used for is shadow wand spells.
Destiny there are shadow damage spells that use the blades and the traps. I think a shadow blade from a jewel should stack with a shadow blade from gear, but sadly, they do not.
