It seems to spring from Fae influencing, but fae influencing was supposed to help the imbalance of the elemental planes... So now Fae and the beasts summoned from them are not only worse power draw than the elemental planes, but they sound worse than influencing demons/angels, since we can only influence some of the fae, as they don't want to all go to Moon or Night.

Subj: Celestia and Nil

In response to player requests at the summit we held for the conflict
between Celestia and Nil, the following changes have been made:

-- Angels and demons on Celestia and Nil will attack enemies of their
respective planes on sight.
Seems ok

-- Celestia and Nil, save for the respective thrones, are now singular
areas.
Hmm.. Im not sure about that.

-- There will be a general indicator of how far the Necromentate is to
being raised (similar to lighting the beacons for the Star of Celest)
Good thing

-- The cosmic lords will now attack enemies on sight.
Nice!

-- When a cosmic lord is resurrected, they will not be invincible for 5
Lusternian months after they are resurrected.
Most likely a typo in here so good change

-- There was a request that enemies not be able to reach
Luciphage/Elohora through the regular method - but this was already in
place!

-- Attacking a cosmic lord will see you enemied to their plane in very
short order.
Good

-- There is now a way for enemies to reach Elohora and Luciphage if the
other four cosmic lords have been slain (but only for a limited window
of opportunity).

-- The Demon Lords are now far less likely to kill their worshippers
during pacting and trying to reach Luciphage.
Good

-- The location of the Pool of Stars on Celestia has changed: it is now
located up from its prior location.
I dont like this one. Now we have to go one more room then before to be able to start melding. And room next to Pool wont be breakable until you get rid of almoust whole demesne first. I dont like it very much. I still have hope that it isnt how i imagine it is. I cant login and see myself.

-- The angelic and demonic hosts can now be influenced! Empowering them
will bring power to your city's nexus.
Nice, will making them paranoid (if can) make nexus to lose power or something?
The last of these changes will go into effect shortly after this post,
but all the others are already in effect. As always, please BUG anything
that is not working as intended. It is our hope that these changes will
help to make the conflict between these two planes more interesting and
challenging, while reducing the amount of "burnout" a city might
receive.

I tried influencing the angels. Nothing. Couldn't do it.

2. To further alleviate some of the imbalance created by the passive power generation of totems within communes.

That's actually incorrect. The reasons for the empowerment quest are twofold:
1. To give Nihilists/Celestines (well, anyone really) something to do on Celestia and Nil.
2. To further alleviate some of the imbalance created by the passive power generation of totems within communes.

This change was due to demesnes I think. As it is -was- a demesne around the Pool would have been breakable right? But a demesne right around the two rooms that connect to the Megalith could very well be made unbreakable. Or at least from my limited understanding about demesnes.

In most cases, the room under the Pool will always be breakable. You won't be able to go much further, granted, but unless it is a straight line demesne, you should always be able to take back that room.

the central bit is

If a demesne goes in all four directions, it has to have rooms N, W, E, and S. Since removing the centre room C doesn't leave any part of the demesne cut off (there is still a loop between the other four rooms), it is breakable.

If a demesnes goes in any three directions, say including N, E, and S, removing room C again doesn't cut off any part of the demesne, and it is still connected through the other three rooms.

If it goes through two opposite directions, say E - C - W, then obviously removing the central room will split the demesne in two non-connected sections, so it cannot be broken. In this case however, non-demesne rooms are only two steps away from the pool, down then either north or south. (Or down then east or west if the demesne is a north/south line).

You are too slow. I already said i was wrong see post above. Heh.

Hmph! You people and your lightning responses!

A hideous archdemon exclaims, "I will feast on your bones, enemy of great Nil!"

So even those summoned demons/angels will now alert Nihilists/Celestians for enemies of respective planes, SWEET!

EDIT:
My demon reacted when Neraka went in to the same room.

That's likely to be a bug.

Would be nice if a couple of those could be applied to avatars.

Like the five months of invincibility, and attacking leading to enemying as well as killing.
