Well it was in says, but we were definitely alone. I mean we were talking about rat fornication, and I said I was leaving to feast upon some exquisite french toast. I mean of all things, french toast?? They even incorporated the french language in Delport, and french toast is frankly too delicious to exclude. Someone clearly needs to create a recipe for it so that my sin may be forgiven.

ew that makes me wanna rant cause I thought empress was local area only. But how is it that willowisp got nerfed from planewide forest, to same forest, to same forest local area, to nothing. It also costs one power is stopped by shield, even if it were reimplemented now it would be stopped by monoliths and distortion, but it won't be added back in. But Celestians get to keep empressing and they get beckoning sad.gif Plus with the flow nerf, we should be able to get willowisp back.

(Serenwilde): Valaria says, "What cure hypochondriac."

(Serenwilde): Krellan (from the Aetherways) says, "Wormwood."

(Serenwilde): Finchy says, "Is there anyone kind enough to put a bit of a
kicking into me so I can re-incarnate? One time opportunity! If you don't happen
to be an enemy, a peep, a gust of wind, the gods, heavy clothing, drink, bunnies
or gambling!"

(Serenwilde): Liam says, "MEeeee."

(Serenwilde): Krellan (from the Aetherways) says, "Deal."

(Serenwilde): Krellan (from the Aetherways) says, "You'll have to kill me
first!"

(Serenwilde): Kinson says, "Heh."

(Serenwilde): Lisaera says, "Why the discrimination against Gods?"

(Serenwilde): Finchy says, "I believe it worthwhile to include Them in all
potential things, not as an indication of being killed by gods before."

(Serenwilde): Alianna says, "Their aim isn't always the most accurate thing in
the world."

(Serenwilde): Lisaera says, "Really?"

(Serenwilde): Finchy says, "I will not aim to challenge that statement."

A blazing silver beam speeds across the firmament, wreathed in ethereal mist.

(Serenwilde): Lisaera says, "Woops."

You know, when I saw on deathsense that Finchy had been torn to shreds by a peep... it made me giggle out loud. But then, I can't help but giggle whenever I see anyone being torn to shreds by peeps. It's just such a funny mental image.

QUOTE(Xenthos @ Nov 4 2007, 04:36 PM) 456028
That would assume that I was saying no because of organizational bias.

However, that's not the case. Yes, Empress is powerful, but it requires that you get the person to ally you (or lust and not reject it). Wisp had no such restriction, and in its first form there wasn't even a delay. Instant summon of anyone in the forest, enemy or ally.

Wisp, even in its nerfed form, is more powerful than empress which has a very simple cure (reject Krellan, which anybody can do-- not everyone can break a demesne). That said, this is a pretty powerful use of empress. It just does not justify returning Wisp.


I agree, it doesn't justify the return of Wisp. It might very well justify the nerf of Empress, though.

That said, empress is definitely one of the best skills in tarot. Also one of the best ways for assisted escape in the game, not even pfifth stops it.

We need a french toast recipe for sure, french toast is delicious.

Dear god no

That said, empress is definitely one of the best skills in tarot. Also one of the best ways for assisted escape in the game, not even pfifth stops it.

We need a french toast recipe for sure, french toast is delicious.


Kay I'm kinda of responding to Xentho's post that Derina quoted. I somehow missed it or I would've responded and quoted it earlier, but anyways. In my defense, it's hard to know how to reply when your answer was just no at first tongue.gif Though I guess instead of asking why I figured I'd take some longshot assumption that would definately trigger a response. But as you said, it's easy to stop. Wisp is easily stopped by shield. However, it's -not- so easily stopped by allies. And as Rakor is pointing out, best assisted escape in the game.

To be honest, the goal was to reduce that part and with all of this given information, I believe a nerf to that assisted escape is now called for. Moonbeam and seize were both one of the best assisted escape skills and with the way they worked, they could be abused to bash with relatively little to no risk. Moonbeam's now useless and seize finally requires balance. With that being said, similar things can be done with empress. It's nearly impossible to remove a lusted ally because forced rejection requires eq/balance and only so many classes can force. Forcing unallying won't help against lusted allies because it won't unally the lusted ones. In any event, while I don't mind the lack of return of wisp and that was mostly my practiced emo ranting, I think we can all agree that empress is in need of a tweak.
