I'm thinking about developing a map where the main component is element-combination.
Thing is, I need some help/inspiration on the element-combinations.
Combining base elements will form a missile fitting that theme, but that's from minor importance, what I need are good suggestions for the themes.
I'd appreciate your help!


My 6 base elements are:

Fire, Water, Nature, Light, Dark, Human

My Tier 2 combinations are the following so far (skipped the commutative parts):

Fire Water Nature Light Dark Human

Fire
Fire Steam Volcano Arcane Chaos Rocket

Water
- Water Ice Shield Poison Beer

Nature
- - Nature Thunder Blight Arrow

Light
- - - Light Unholy Laser

Dark
- - - - Dark Zombie

Human
- - - - - Human

I will also use Tier 3 combinations, although only with 2 elements of the same kind. That table is quite empty though:

Fire Water Nature Light Dark Human

FF
Fire Tornado Solar Pure Hell Bomb

WW
? Water Hailstorm ? ? ?

NN
Meteor Blizzard Nature Cosmic Corrupt Spear

LL
? ? ? Light Twilight Energy

DD
? ? ? ? Dark ?

HH
Bloodmage Archmage Beastmaster Paladin Dreadlord Human

I must add that I primarly need offensive themes, so something like "heal" or "regeneration" isn't what I'm looking for, even though it fits to some combination with light, nature or water.

Thought I'd give this a go but damn the water combinations are just... Admittedly some of my suggestions aren't that great by my standards (Fel and Corrupt come to mind) but anyway here's what I came up with. Hopefully my ideas can help spark better ideas by you or someone else. By the way I switched Water/Nature and Water/Light projectiles around in the T2 table because Ice into Hailstorm seemed to make more sense.

Fire Water Nature Light Dark Human

Fire
Fire Steam Volcano Arcane Chaos Rocket

Water
- Water Ice Shield Poison ?

Nature
- - Nature Thunder Blight Spear

Light
- - - Light Unholy Laser

Dark
- - - - Dark Zombie

Human
- - - - - Human

Fire Water Nature Light Dark Human

FF
Fire Tornado Solar Pure Fel/Hell Bomb

WW
- Water Hailstorm ? ? ?

NN
- - Nature Cosmic Corrupt Catapult

LL
- - - Light Twilight Energy

DD
- - - - Dark Vampire

HH
- - - - - Human
