So, something that has bothered me since Dawngrasp was created. Why does Druid get deal 5, draw one for 6 as Arcane, but Mage has no Nature spells that are similar quality? For that matter, Priest gets Arcane too, but Mage doesn’t get Holy. How will this affect kindred?
That’s like asking why does Priest has access to Shadow but Warlock doesn’t get Holy.
There is a lore reason why Druid can use Nature and Arcane. They are all about balance and anything related to moons and stars is usually Arcane.

The Stars Align/Wish of the New Moon/Ritual of the New Moon. Am I reading those cards incorrectly? They all seem to say Arcane at the bottom.
And lore never seems to matter when it is any other class, and I can provide a pile of examples. Why would Druid get a pass for tradition?

You are right. I forgot that spell schools can’t be searched by typing it in. You have to use the other search functions.

Isn’t there a 1 mana mage spell that gives nature spells?

Is there really? I made the thread because of the new keyword coming, and I see way more synergy for other classes. Plus, my quest today was “draw nature spells”, but I had to re- roll, because mage doesn’t have any, or at least I thought?
Found it: “Spark of Life”.
But that card doesn’t have the Nature school tag. That probably matters.

Ultimately, not every class has to get every school type, so why would you want nature/holy in mage ? What would be the point since mage does not have synergy for these types ?

mage can use divine brew i think

if what you said is true, then why is it necessary for Priest and Druid to have arcane spells?
are you talking about witches brew? i couldn’t find a divine brew card.
I don’t think mage can use that card. it’s shaman only.

I never said it was
My point is that as long as it’s irrelevant to gameplay, then it’s irrelevant for everything
Priest could not have arcane spells, wouldn’t change a thing
Mage could have nature spells, wouldn’t change a thing (not exactly, but read further)
Since it’s irrelevant, I don’t question why they do or don’t have certain types of spells, since it doesn’t matter, since it has literaly no impact.
That’s why I’m questionning what’s your initial thought before creating this thread
The only actual argument for spell schools in mage is that mage is one of the 3 classes that have a “menagerie” archetype for school types, which relies on what school types you have access to. Giving mag emore school types could alter future implementation of said archetypes, in good or bad

I’m curious as to why you think it’s irrelevant when we have quests that dictate spell schools and we are going to have a keyword that does the same thing?

What’s the mage quest that implies playing nature spells ?
What’s the Kindred card that relies on nature spells in mage ?
If those synergies don’t exist in mage, then they are irrelevant to the mage class design and gameplay

I still don’t see why other classes have far more options for using the upcoming keyword than mage will have access to.
And it probably isn’t just mage, I haven’t researched other classes is all.

That’s irrelevant to the question of nature and holy spells in mage…
Mage could have had kindred for fire, frost arcane, hek even shadow
Mage having nature spells wouldn’t have introduced a kindred synergy for nature spells in mage
Well, we will never know, will we? Meanwhile Druid will have access to arcane, and so will priest.
I have a feeling this interaction will matter, and I will remember when it does.

Where’s the arcane kindred spell for priest and druid ?
Like why do you keep bringing something completely unrelated to your own topic ?
Mage has a fel spell, priest doesn’t, will you make a thread about that too ?

So maybe priest should? You should make a thread about that if it bothers you. I certainly would. Maybe I will:)
