So, will the Moon altar be getting anything to make up for losing the resurgem benefits? I'm just curious, because if it doesn't, it's just a construct with single coning and transport to a single aetherbubble. Unless by resurgem benefits, you only mean the soul ressurection. Personally, I rather find something else anyways other than the resurgem stuff.
Ah, there is a Construct Committee made up of all the city and commune leaders and headed up by Catarin that is looking at all of this. Feel free to ask them what is being discussed and give them your ideas.

Haven't thought of that. Would be an interesting either way. Open to opinions.
(Maybe there should be a chance of giving a lichseed against someone's will, i.e., target has 5 seconds to leave the room before the lichseed is planted.)

Hmm, it should just cost enough power/time that in group fights we don't see people going lichseed planting crazy on the other side to boost their damage.

Well we have to go back to the drawing board now!

The problem with it being forceable would be that after a Celestian, Seren, Gloom dies they would be undead. Since the RP stance of the first two is to absolutely detest undeadness it would force them to die again, giving an additional xp loss.
I think the lichseed should only be useable on other Magnagorians.

Please let these new changes offer avenger protection, since there is xp loss now.
Also what is the demigod 'conglutinate' essence loss? 50,000?

Love the changes. Lots.
Might you consider different secondary perks for bats and tarantulas? Blacktalon already fly, Harbingers already attack from ground to elevation, and you can't pick the animal you get. Anerod immunity for bats and chance to resist being sprawled for tarantulas, maybe? Also, I don't believe I've ever seen a widow familiar. If code exists for them, you might want to make sure it actually fires.

But that's cool RP in and of itself, as long as it there is time for them to get away from it if they want.

The group benefit is for the liches in the room, not those with your lichseed planted in them, so i don't think that's relevant (unless you don't realize you're undead but you have to be pretty dense not to notice your heart doesn't beat).

If there is 5 seconds to leave from the room I'm sure that it could be avoided. It would add some very nice Rp flavour.

It does, it's just very, very rare. We get one every couple of months.

How about some thing like this for Trackers... Totem Users/Other Non-Trackers get similar type stat buffs and defenses/fear immunity etc. Why not for Tracker bond as well?
Just an idea, I am trying to put a list of things together to help/fix/improve Tracking in general, but this would be nice...

Yeah, Xenthos would be very, very angry if someone did that to him (period-- as he wouldn't give his permission), even if it did "save" his life. He'd have to end up heartstopping anyways and spending 15 minutes as a soul.

These most likely will all be noticed by the Avenger.
Still not sure about the grace unless it is for a very small period.... maybe a serpent aura instead?

we all know how easy it is to keep someone in place for 5 seconds. Even more so in groups

What is the downside of darkrebirth giving conglutination benefits off prime? Most people will conglutinate anyways and this would mostly benefit the smaller players. Why not?

No, what I mean is you said that cold damage would increase with how many people you had in the room that you had planted the lichseed in? Unless I'm misunderstanding, then it would be good to have as many of your lichseeded people in the room as possible. If you can lichseed without much time/power cost investment you could plant the lichseed in as many of the other group as you could in order to boost your damage output.

The only one Grace actually makes sense for, upon reflection, is the normal Crow Rebirth since it takes you out of the action and back home. As I said, probably not worth coding it in specifically for that, as the rest don't need it. Just getting Avenger protection should be enough.
(Did you get my message?)

That would be excellent, and better than grace (which can be abused..rarely happens but it can!)
