Wolf totem is free if you aren't a bum.

Seriously. Come on, Wolf Totem != Spiritbond Nature.

Wolf totem can also make us resistant to lover's effect, pacifism, and shyness too then. Game balance and all. XD

Rubeus != resistance. Rubeus is a one time thing. Don't compare wolf and rubeus.

Just out of curiosity, what changed between when this was done when I was still an Ur'guard and last week, and now?

They put trample on beast balance, so you could trample and perform an action at the same time. Has been remedied.

That's what happens if:
1) You forget to rebond to Wolf after you die.
2) It is stripped by something.
3) You are hit by an affliction that looks like fear, but isn't. Symptoms include: Loneliness, Shyness, Agoraphobia.

Only 8 pages before we started nonsensically comparing skills? Too slow, forums, too slow.

Also I didn't think totem spirits could be stripped.

P.S. Carcer beats shafts!

but you can still do that with 2-3 people right?

I must say, this was a fun read

No one with a timed insta that cares about fear has wolf totem. (MDs and SDs with astro can still attack while waiting for meteor AFAIK.)

Thats actually what I was saying to do to wolf... rubeus poofs off randomly



Dont even need more of a reply considering whose saying it.

@Sarrasri: Sure wolf totem can help with all that... when you lose SCENT from it

@Casilu: I have had totems and rituals, totems is distinctly better in pure utility (I do like my laetitia and puella though)

@Shiri: Its always fun when being hindered is the reason you finish something, like webbing the soulless user. I didnt use RP for a skill reason, I said it would make sense and heres why. Then again do people still argue about debating during battle when you shouldnt really be 'up to talking'?

Also, yes you can attack while using meteor


Point stands, fearaura was a stupid choice as it just ruins timed instas in many cases. Soulless just became unreliable and thats the one thing Guardians really had for them that was reliable. And yes resisting fear ONLY means fear, it would not include any phobias.

@Sojiro: We will try harder! We sorry

EDIT: Quick note, since essence isnt used in arenas some people have been seen using aura, wrath, AND fearaura among other things in the arena. Just so you dont think all the fear notes stem from group combat where you are usually hindered or off eq IF YOU ARE THE TARGET (otherwise you wont be hindered so much)

The point is rather moot. Everyone wants what they don't have, I mean, I want Lich, I want Trueheal, thats city bias!! OMG!!

Not everyone has access to the same skills. Stealth would be nice too but hey, you use what you have. Mag and Glom could have more ascendants if they wanted, they just obviously don't want it.

It's not all about having what you want, its wanting what you have.

Glom couldn't, too little power. D:

We're slowly but surely gaining though!

True, but fearaura sticks around, while Rubeus is a oneshot def. Then again, compose is an instant cure that takes and requires no balance...

The complaint stems from the fact that Fear Aura is an instant tick, making people run out of rooms. But even still, it's an instant cure and you can just walk back in. It screws up groups, which is about it. Even when I didn't have Wolf Bond as a Spiritsinger, it wasn't a big deal getting feared out of a room and just walking back in.

Wolf Bond doesn't need to be stripped. One-half of its greatness was made into an artifact. When Carcer and Ghost are made into Artifacts, we'll talk.

Ghost dingbat artifact please!

It will need to be whimsical of course! How about a pointy white ghost hat?

Because it's spooooky. And not at all offensive.

Want to wear our hats and hang out by the tree?
