Hello!
I've been pondering this for quite a while but I'm not overly taught about druid skills and all so I need another opinion here...
Are there any reasons why a Tae'dae Blacktalon really wouldn't work?
Likely the low intelligence would be a problem, or maybe more the low willpower... and we don't know the new druid tertiary (supposedly) comming, but from what I hear from Psionics it's mainly based around ego, which Tae'dae have plenty of, so I kind of hope for something similar for Druids.
That said, I'm aware this race/guild combination will likely not produce a slaymonster, the question is more whether it'd suck so much that the Tae'dae would pretty much be dead man walking or at least able to defend himself sufficiently and maybe be at least not completely useless on the offensive?
Anyway, is anyone able to give me the main problems a Tae'dae would have as a Druid? Safe for the slow balance/equilibrium which sucks wherever you are.

In fact... here's another question, which druid/mage guild would work best for a Tae'dae?

A telepathy tae'dae is pretty groovy.
LOTS of charisma.
LOTS of health.
A speedy recovery via sipping of either of those attributes.
Set "eq" times on the abilities, meaning that your slow balances won't be a problem except for debating.
Essentially, use telepathy to tank anything anyone throws at you while debating them down and then mindburst.

Except it's telekinetics that get the ego protection skill.

Changed just for you.

Telekinetics are the ones who can use their ego as a means of physical protection. Telepathy does not give an added ability to tank attacks. Psionics does, but then again using those abilities will lock up your channels and so lock up your telepathy or telekinetic abilities.
*note: You can choose which channels to lock up, so you can stagger your tankiness a bit. You just will not be able to cover all of the bases and expect to be able to use your other telepathy or telekinetic abilities too.

I would say a Tae'dae with trans psionics, and shieldstun would be pretty nasty... Shieldstun 3 psionics attacks.. rinse, repeat

I'm 60% sure you can't do this.
Unknown2005-07-31 19:56:05
I remember asking someone about this a while ago. You need psionic equilibrium in the same way you need normal balances. You can't shield stun and then attack. I'm 90% sure. Someone want to verify?

I'm 100% sure you can.

You can do it if you use BALANCE first, like with shieldstun. However, it doesn't work with equilibrium.
And if you want to use a Tae'dae caster, do a psionic mage, there's no telling what the next druid skill will be and chances are it won't work like Psionics.

I suggest you test the actual skills in question on someone else to make sure. Sometimes a few skills will work a certain way that a few others will not.
