Back to Ideas.

Yeah, the former. You're supposed to be losing your corporeal form anyway.
Unknown2005-04-18 04:04:58
I could put up with it being un followable.
Sylphas2005-04-18 04:08:14
Would be annoying (more for having to teleport nexus instead of just flow home with pilgrims), but yeah, that'd work.
Unknown2005-04-18 04:09:44
Mmm letting denizens follow should be allowed, I think, just not other players. If that is the rode we want to go for the 'needed' downgrade.
Shiri2005-04-18 04:13:11
Yes, denizens would follow, same as happens with other unfollowable transport.
Daganev2005-04-18 05:00:48
Why do you want to make flow weaker than teleport?
Sylphas2005-04-18 05:04:03
Having players not able to follow you makes it weaker than teleport? It would still allow us instant movement, it just wouldn't mean one person flows in, and the 5 people following can all attack instantly.
Elryn2005-04-18 05:06:47
Although I'm not entirely convinced flow is massively overpowered, this change appears reasonable.
Unknown2005-04-18 05:13:02
What Elryn said *nod*.
Elryn2005-04-18 08:43:24
Oh, and I meant players not following, by the way. Denizens not following would be rather silly.
Murphy2005-04-18 08:52:23
nope, flow should leave your fae behind
Elryn2005-04-18 09:08:11
And ghost movement should be blocked by eye sigils. smile.gif
Unknown2005-04-18 10:45:01
And drop all your equipment. tongue.gif
Unknown2005-04-18 10:57:43
And make you die upon unghosting, too. Oh and make you, like, die 2 more times after that.
Ceres2005-04-18 18:30:23
And then peace you for 12 in game years.
Unknown2005-04-19 01:25:21
Good idea.
Murphy2005-04-19 03:51:32
perhaps put the same requirements on ghost as flow, as both lose corpeal form and gain it back. That way ghosts disadvantage would be willpower, being able to be trapped, power cost, and flows would be having to be in forest and not have the other disadvantages of ghost
Shiri2005-04-19 03:55:29
All that really needs to happen is that you can't follow a flow.

See, then it would be like a teleport, except you use the eq at the end rather than at the beginning. (The eq regain would have a cap, no mugwumps messing it up.) Only it would work to forests instead of things.

Oh, and you'd never be able to hide a flow. For invisible people it would be like "The undergrowth rustles suspiciously behind you." or something.
Elryn2005-04-19 04:03:02
Players not being able to follow would be quite enough to limit the offensive advantage of the ability (if that is even necessary).

The defensive uses of flow are fine, including escape.

Denizens do NOT follow with other unfollowable transport, they don't follow with hermit for example.
