3) It must not be automatable to a level where someone using automation (triggers/autoresponses mainly) can gain a significant advantage over those who are skilled at combat without automation


Looks like Sarapis failed.

Oh, yes, he gave up trying to defeat triggers some time ago (bit after the article was written). It just wasn't feasible except insofar as afflictions such as stupidity and whatnot are concerned.

Actually he didn't fail. There are many fighters in Achaea who use Java. There are also many fighters in Achaea who are "purists" meaning they cure manually. These fighters have both dominated the combat rankings and been very successfull Marks. Sarapis realised that stopping people using triggers would be impossible, his statement was not that he was even attempting such. What he was working on is ensuring that people who could not make triggers had a chance to fight as well as people who could make triggers, and in that he succeeded.

back on the original topic......what I meant was basically having no emote balance which would allow you to emote some action then nature curse so for my main attack trigger

emote twirls his staff around.
nature curse @target

I know you are going to say that removing emote balance will cause abuse of it...and I'd just like to say I pity those idiots who would do that

Why not make it so that you can customize part of the description but theres a part at the end that you can't change or customize? That way it's kinda like having an emote at the beginning, but you can still tell what's happening to you and use triggers?
