Envoy Summit and Report Changes
Written by: Lisaera, the Empyrean Mother

Addressed to: Everyone
Though some of the changes we are planning to do due to the Envoy Summit
require more time taken to design exactly how we are going to implement
them, there are the first immediate changes from it:
- Demesnes are now limited to 25 rooms. This is a large change to the
way demesnes are going to be within the game, and we are going to
continue to monitor demesnes in general. We aren't removing current
demesnes over 25 rooms, as experience tells us they'll either die or be
chipped away pretty quickly anyway.
- Summon in both Aquamancy and Geomancy has been removed entirely, as
has the ability to summon Willowisps in Wicca.
- The way size affects writhing has been re-examined, and now has
similar caps (both minimum and maximum) on the effect it can have on the
speed of writhing as tumble does.
- A bug with offensive ego loss in debating has been fixed.
- Influence Divert has been changed to use 50% of the user's ego when
used, and no longer regenerates all of the diverted mobile's ego, but
only a portion of it.
Now some more envoy report changes:
- The ability to strip SixthSense and Constitution has been added to
Psionics AlterAura.
- The Superstratus Psionic channel has been made generally faster to
recover balance.
- On death, ego burnout and forgetting Psionics or its specialisations,
Psionic channels unlocking will no longer use balance on the channels.
- Telekinesis Pyre damage has been changed entirely, and now both the
initial damage and the continuous damage are partially based on current
health of the target.
- Telepathy Mindlink in general should not now be considered an
aggressive action in any way.
- The drains in PsychicVampirism and MindBlast in Telepathy are now both
partially based on the maximum ego of the casting person. This is a de
facto upgrade to Hivemind as well, as that increases maximum ego of its
members.
- Telepathy Dominate can now only be used on the Psionic channel it is
meant to be used on.
