Sounds like a good idea. However, this needs to be in the suggestion forum. Good idea though!

Stats would also be good for this.

fine suggestion though i think the fire ball range should be until it goes off screen or hits a wall

Moved the thread for you. I think if you organized the stats better it would be easier to understand try modeling it after the in game tooltips (info you get when hovering over an item in your inventory).

While you indeed didn't neglect that, but whenever you introduce a new weapon(or mob) people like to be able to see the stats clearer rather than in a sentence. I'll sort it out for you this time.

Attack : 6
Crit Chance : 5%
Mana Cost : 5
Speed : Very slow
Velocity : -

Copy that into your OP so it's clearer. Also, I took the liberty to change the crit chance to 5% as all weapons have a basic 4% chance to crit. It's not something you can reduce as it's within the core of coding itself, I'm lead to believe. For projectile weapons, it's also a good idea to include velocity of said projectile. If you have no idea, just compare it to arrows or other existing projectiles.

All in all it looks OK. But as said, it can afford to be buffed a bit to 8~11 damage and the bolt should just go as far it can. I think you should work on the sprite of the book more, but I'm no expert(nor an amateur) in that matter. You should take a look at this thread for spriting guide:

This has been suggested many times before, but nice sprite: did you do it yourself?
