Yes, I was of the understanding that this is how it is intentioned. Multiple grappels = 1 writhe. There were other ISSUES related to this early on in the Tahtetso (specifically regarding Tipheret/Summer) that makes me think this is the case.

It's not in either of the logs I thought it was. (I'm horrible about logging in general.) I'm sure I could harass ninjas into double ninshi'ing me when I wake up.

I don't know about "should." It would certainly make sense, but it would also be overpowered.

That's for one monk, btw. Multiple writhes from multiple monks is fair.

Does it work like that? Test this? Or do you know for certain? I was under the impression that multiple monks did not mean multiple writhes. I'm not convinced of the fairness here, though I can see cases both ways.

Two people webbing != two writhes.

On the other hand, grapples more or less lock a monk into a narrower range of attacks. More so, if they're grappling, they've got their kata set up for that and single writhing off ten monks seems silly when you extend it out.

Yep - you can't have an affliction more than once - but one person webbing, one person shackling, one person roping and you have three writhes.

Well, tell Xavius that, not me, he said it, I just trusted him on that it was true (which may have been a bad idea because I just refuted another idea he had, but unlike that one I don't know any better myself.)

AKA a "feature".

It works for all writhe-things that can be ended before the person finishes writhing, including pinleg.

One writhe will take care of any amount of grapples from any amount of monks.

Ive been pinlegged by Thoros to death in the recent FFA so I started investigating about it.. Good thing there is already this thread.. however, I do have some questions still

1. It seems I need to writhe twice from two pinlegs.. and something strange is happening when I do --




So if seems you need to use two writhe.. however, in here, im still unbalanced from the first writhe and couldnt writhe again..

It might be good since, if BM's can do two pinlegs.. i can also writhe out of it twice in succession.. :mutter:



2. After writhing out of the pinlegs.. when i diagnosed, i found this --

So a pinleg gives a pinleg and afterwards it gives pierced legs? Thats a mighty fine skills in there..

3. Not really related to pinlegs.. but in my spars against titans/demi, they all seem to writhe so fast.. like this --



What happened here? did he writhed out of fascinate so fast then invoked tipheret? (the fascinate unwrithe line did not appear at all too) -- Or does tipheret works even if under fascinate?

Anyone who can shed some light in here? im a little puzzled.. and awh.. now my pinleg system, it would need a lot of work..

pinleg is the only offensive skill a bm gets it damn well better be useful..

Not quite.

1) Thoros had you pinned twice. Two weapons in your leg means you need to writhe twice, once for each weapon. Usually you get balance back before a writhe completes, but apparently your Spiderlegs song is affecting that. That's an issue with you writhing too fast-- waiting until balance returns is still faster than most other people get out.
2) Pierced leg is a lesser affliction that Thoros got on the way to pinning you. We have artery, pierced, pin, sever on legs (in order of least->most severity).
3) Demigods can change their size to 1 (so can titans) for ultra-fast writhing.

Pierced leg is also given when you get pinned.

Writhing from transfix isn't affected by size, and transfix doesn't stop you from using tipheret.
