Greetings Magicians,

Today we’ll be starting to cover the final Magic Card type you’ll encounter in Dandy Ace, Yellow Magic Cards. You can read more about how Magic Cards are utilized as skills in our Introduction to Magic Cards. Unlike the mobility focused Blue Magic Cards and the damage oriented Pink Magic Cards, Yellow Magic Cards offer up more utility based skill options to Ace. Yellow Magic Cards have the widest variety of mechanics associated with them and can range from giant barriers & personal shields to slow fields and stuns.

Dazzling Display

Dazzling Display is a short to mid-ranged Yellow Magic Card. When activated Ace will cast a bright cone of dazzling light in the direction he is facing. Any enemies caught within the light will be stunned for a short period of time.

The upgrade effect for Dazzling Display varies depending on the color of the card it upgrades. For Yellow and Blue Magic Cards, Dazzling Display adds Stun when damaging an enemy to the upgraded skill. When upgrading a Pink Magic Card, it will add Prey Seeker instead. Prey Seeker causes stunned enemies to take more damage from the affected skill.

Magical Barrier

Magical Barrier is a shield based Yellow Magic Card. Ace creates a big moving barrier that destroys enemy projectiles on contact thanks to the Bullet Ward effect. Enemies in its path will be pushed back and also have the Weakness condition applied. Weakness causes enemies to deal 30% less damage to Ace for a short period of time.

The upgrade effect for Magical Barrier is Death Weakness. The upgraded skill applies Death Weakness to enemies on hit. Affected enemies will spread Weakness to other nearby enemies on death.

Time Dissonance

Time Dissonance is an AOE based Yellow Magic Card. On activation Ace will create a magical Slow Field that damages and slows enemies in it. The Slow Field also has the added benefit of slowing enemy projectiles that pass through it. Upgrading a card with Time Dissonance will add Slow to Yellow and Blue Magic Cards while Pink cards get Relentless Pursuit. Any enemies hit by the upgraded Pink Magic Card will take additional damage if they are affected by Slow thanks to Relentless Pursuit.

Aegis Cloak

Aegis Cloak is a very powerful shield based Yellow Card. On activation Ace creates a shield around himself and the next hit that would damage Ace will be absorbed. The shield explodes when destroyed, dealing damage to nearby enemies. As an upgrade, Aegis Cloak adds Invulnerability making Ace immune to all damage for a short period of time when the upgraded skill is activated. This effect has an internal cooldown.

Packet Trick

Packet Trick is a ranged AOE Yellow Magic Card that is often used as a trap. Ace drops a group of explosive cards on the ground. The cards explode and deal damage to enemies on contact. This skill combos well when combined with crowd control based cards such as those that add Stun or the Charm condition. The upgrade effect of Packet Trick is Death Bomb. Enemies damaged by the upgraded skill will explode and deal damage to all nearby enemies.

Passion Comet

Passion Comet is a ranged Yellow Magic Card. On activation Ace shoots a comet that explodes once it reaches its max range or collides with an enemy. Any enemies caught in the blast will take damage and also gain the Charm condition. While affected by Charm, enemies will slowly move towards Ace and can't attack for a short period of time. Upgrading any card with Passion Comet adds Death Charm. Any enemies hit by the upgraded skill will spread Charm to nearby enemies on death.

Starburst

Starburst is an AOE based Yellow Magic Card. On activation, Ace will release a burst of magic and push back all enemies around him while also dealing damage to any enemies hit. The upgrade effect of Starburst adds Push. The upgraded skill will push enemies back enemies on successful hit.
