So, my favorite Stellar Nova was "Edin Genesis Quasar" it was my favorite thing to use in calamity runs, a right and proper literal super saiyan transformation fit with cutscene and all. and while I do love the new update, the uh.. stellar prism changes make that nice bonus on hit damage into something uhh... a bit TOO insane for what it is. for refrence, I turned on the ability before an infernum DoG fight, I hit its segments ONCE, and the poor dude just actually got six shot before dying. the prisms make damage boosts for the on-hit really powerful, so I dont use it anymore, its no longer the transformation buff that made fights alot of fun to play around with, and made it more like "click this button to win". so I dont use it anymore. but hear me out.

What if we could get a starfarer attire for the Chrysalid Pyronexus?
The concept at its core, shared across both starfarers (should it have two different types) will at least have The ability to don the armor onto the PLAYER rather than the starfarer, like a distant cousin to Edin Genesis Quasar, the stellar nova transforms the offensive ability, into a transformation state. Now personally, I would prefer players dont have an actual set of armor layered on top, but just that green-ish fire to signify the buff duration. (also to make it easier to create)

The Buff: "From Shattered Sky, I Free Fall"

The idea is simple, attacks during this state induces the similar stacking like the original stellar nova effect, but at a reduced rate of build up, additionally there is a cooldown between applying marks as to avoid fast hitting piercing weapons being broken like how it was with Edin Genesis Quasar. on top of that, we could slap on a damage reduction effect, speed boost and flight time, instead of edin genesis's damage boost and flight time.

Making this one more distinct for drawn out combats rather than explosive bursts that Edin Genesis Quasar is for. it will have a longer buff timer, and for fighting swarms of enemies it adds on +1 second to its buff duration on any kill (duration cannot go past its max)

The Middle Ground: In Reddened Chrysalis, I Once Rest

Now, from what I've seen Attire's have clear buffs, debuffs, and some middle ground. so the conceptual middle ground will involve messing with the Stellar Nova Energy. When outside of The Buffed state, gain X+ energy regen and bonus armor + damage reduction, However stellar nova energy pick ups on the field cannot be absorbed while donning the starfarer attire

The downside: Amidst Silenced Stars, I Deep Sleep
When Getting hit without donning the chrysalid pyronexus, apply a debuff, "Entropy Loss Syndrome", Causing a burn to affect the player for its duration, while burning gain even more energy regen, but while burning also lose more damage, crit chance. potions consumed during this time will cleanse the debuff, but also gain 10% longer potion cooldowns. (debuff will be cleansed after X seconds, or when donning the crysalid pyronexus)

(STARS ABOVE, GRANT ME THIS STARFARER ATTIRE AND MY LIFE, IS YOURS.)
