That's like saying you'd better stock up on health potions because Forcefield is fixed. biggrin.gif

Wasn't it only a 5% change?


I thought it halved it.

Any way we could be able to set the color of our manse farms? The corral is white, and it blends into the room description... I almost forgot it was there...

o Torturesong (Necroscream) will scale bleeding with plague
afflictions.

After testing, it's still not enough to be worth it. To make use of an offensive song that requires a defensive action when the oponent has multiple plague affs.... I mean it's not too bad with manabarbs, again assuming they have multiple affs, but I can't imagine following up with web after i've stuck mana barbs and several plague affs in combat.

I guess it's better than nothing and torture song is a low stanza song, but rest assured the basin will be safe from lacerating entanglements (which only cause bleeding if you writhe or contort out of them, are hearing and not captivated by another bard). A buff is a buff though so I shouldn't complain too much it's just a little underwhelming. Also, the damage does not stack with multiple bards.

Webbing someone isn't necessarily a defensive action. It's a hinder, and yours now adds bleeding on top of hindering. I think it's a great skill.

It always added bleeding, which you may or may not notice depending on if you have a lot of plauge affs and forgot to use your kingdom enchant. But like I said better than nothing.

Then you are doomed to be disappointed, I think.

You can set a trigger to color it whatever you want.

Nope! Superego is only a 5% reduction, or else goats should really be doing 3000+ damage at a go, which I really hope is not the case

Wow, ninja Fillin nerf, hope he gets a refund.

Considering the forcefield report has been there for a while, I'm pretty sure he knew about it already. So not very ninja!

It wasn't a 'ninja nerf' to those it affected. The matter was/is being handled, and it's not an apropos topic for the forums.

o PsychicPush (Psionics) will give the target balance loss if they
get moved.


Anyone test this? What's balance loss?

o New skill in Harmony - HighChant.

Syntax: MANTRA HIGHCHANT
Power: 1 (Any)

You can chant this with ferverand no impact
will be felt on balance or equilibrium.


Can anyone explain this one to me? I'm not terribly familiar with Harmony, and cannot understand what this AB implies.
Unknown2011-02-09 00:52:00
Esano said about 1s on the former, the latter means switching mantras takes no eq/bal when used (not sure if it requires it though).
Esano2011-02-09 00:53:03
You can switch your chants around without losing balance/eq, at a cost of 1 power.

Generally, enchanting harmony mantras take equilibrium. This will allow the chanter to switch their mantras on the fly during combat for a small power cost. It's actually a pretty big deal for them, if you think about it.

Following up on my own post, I'm not positive on this, but it could also be that you don't need balance or equilibrium to swap mantras with a highchant as well.

Aaahhh. OK. I was hoping to see something similar for psymet considering the 6s it takes to unlock and then another 6s it takes to re'def thee channels simultaneously (Report 494, Solution #3). Wonder if I could re-approach a report for monk use of psionic mechanics to achieve a solution to cut down on 12s psi recovery to swap out locked defenses.
