The corrosiveness of the taint sickens the land. A smattering of clouds fills
the sky, lacing it with spiderwebs of grey.
You see exits leading east and southwest.

So Im confused, chilled and off eq, now I'm waiting at 1h for the willpower to kill me

This is rediculous, you should be able to unghost regardless of how afflicted you are

Add to this the recent logs of people being hit with demense effects and things that are obviously only effective against physical bodies, and you have a whole host of things that are wrong with ghost.

Not that I think you should be cured of afflictions when you ghost, but maybe they could stick to your body, so when you reform they are waiting?
Murphy2005-02-10 08:46:42
yeah its pretty bad, you even bleed as a ghost, and instakills still go through when you ghost
Yrael2005-02-10 08:56:56
Perhaps make it so *nothing* afflicts you as a ghost, EXCEPT abilities like the one that Celestines have, doing about 500 damage to you? And, make you a little less noticable, so your name appears as the green of an object rather than the blue of a person, or better, doesnt appear at all unless someone does a 'L GHOST'?
Daganev2005-02-10 09:06:12
Necromancy is not ment to have abilities that help us only make us think we have a chance.
Elryn2005-02-10 12:09:55
When you are in ghost form, you can only move and return to human form, right? Maybe you could get another command that would be purge... cures a random affliction while you're still in ghost form. I agree you shouldn't be able to be locked like that as ghost.

Would it be too unbalancing to have all your afflictions negated until you return to human form, upon which they would come back? I can't really imagine many cases in which afflictions would seriously hinder someone in ghost form. (When demesne's appear to be working right, anyway)
Unknown2005-02-10 12:12:53
In other IRE games afflictions still affecting you while blackwinded was considered to be what balances it. Still, blackwind is the best such skill there and is significantly worse than spores, while cold affliction is much less commonplace. So hey, who knows.

Agreed, that would be logical. Only those afflictions which are related directly to the soul (and maybe mind too) would still be in effect while you're ghosted.
Morik2005-02-10 15:37:33
.. just have you drop out of ghost after a fixed amount of time. Say, five minutes. That way you aren't completely stuck.
Shiri2005-02-10 17:23:30
They'd die by that point, Morik. The will drain would nail them.

I'm likin' this one.
Rhysus2005-02-10 17:24:53
How about you cure your afflictions first intead of spamming the ghost command?

Oh, and then dying to Kether anyways. *cackle*
