--Optional--

-------------

Quartz Plating / Quartz Plating
Cost: 4 :earth / 3 :earth
Stats (if creature or weapon): -NA- (Non-weapon Permanent)
Ability(ies):
  • unupgraded: "Your shield has a 15% chance to spawn a spark when struck and 10% chance to evade spell targeting, spawning a spark. Additive."
  • upgraded: "Your shield has a 15% chance to spawn a spark when struck and 10% chance to evade spell targeting, spawning a spark. Additive."

The ability title is "Piezoelectricity". E.g. the ability of some crystals, like quartz, to generate electricity in response to physical deformation / stress.

This permanent stacks (like pillars, repulsors, etc.). The proc chances stacks multiplicatively.
Bascially, it makes your shield create sparks when interacting with attackers or when targeted.

UP. Compare Static Force giving 1 spell damage to this giving 3 physical damage that's delayed. Upgraded should be reworked to spawn ball lightning. Would prefer spell that targets shield (like envenom in next patch)

This can easily be reworked as a spell...

I went with the permanent version though so that it wouldn't have to be recast every time a new shield got played. That makes it more useful with shields that use charges or limited duration
