It's pretty bonkers

Agree, bedevil needs to also be stopped by most hinders. It's pretty lame that people basically can't stop aurawarp buildup because if they hinder the healer, they'll just get bedeviled with their own strong afflictions + more aurawarp.

I think Illus can do it well enough with balance steal, exit failure, and empress, but it's no sure thing.

I call bullshit!

It's been mentioned before. I'm a big fan of the idea, but the admin are also dealing with a lot of fallout from the overhaul. I would say their plate is a little bit full at the moment to take on another radical change, but you never know!

(Quote) Hey, just a few tips! You should loudly echo when your target gets aeoned (there's a universal 3p message) and loudly echo whenever the target smokes a pipe. Will make it a lot easier to keep track of if they're aeoned. With that in…

Yeah, I agree. I have nothing against tweaking up some instakill conditions if it turns out monks can't kill 1v1 after you nerf their ludicrous damage.
The two issues shouldn't be conflated though. Monks are doing more damage than th… -
1v1 is the situation where damage spam attrition is the least outrageous. In the more relevant group combat, it gets instantly out of hand, which is why it's a bad mechanic.
-
Wanting consensus from monk envoys to nerf their own damage is clearly not going to work. It only takes one monk with their head up their ass to grind the whole process to a halt.
It appears that there is more than one, based on 'somethi… -
Timezone dependent. There are never any enemies online when I am

I think you'd need to add some other ways to regen empathy then if strict empathy management became necessary. Otherwise you'll end up always stuck at 0 empathy 1v1 with no flexibility.
It's a cool direction to go, and I'd have fun with i…(Quote)
I think the aurawarp mechanic is pretty good as is, and that healing is a really nicely designed skillset. The main problem I see is that it's really hard to actively do anything to stop the aurawarp buildup, and running …Two recommended adjustments based on further sparring:
Make hindering the healer's aurawarp build more possible somehow. (Powerfocus cures double aurawarp?)
Make aurawarp cure faster when not in the same room with the healer, v…Fun wargames and generosity from Iosai!
Also, stupid me for looping out and dcing because of my buggy gem targetting.…It's not broken, he has apathy on and it stays at 0My guess is that it's the wonderbelt ability that raises shield when you're low HP, like vitality. It exists for this situation exactly!Bedevil needs to be stopped by prone/anything that puts a p in your prompt. As it is you can keep up constant aurawarp pressure with bedevil any time you're hindered and the opponent basically can't do anything whatsoever to stop you.

>.>I'm wary to give it a power cost since flay/bendaura ends up being fairly power intensive. Personally I'd like to see it get toned down, perhaps simply make it cure 1 aff and give one aff + some aurawarp.Oh, hmm, I didn't realize that since I was just using stratagems. Yeah, bug it.
Constructively, what other balancing measures for bedevil can we think of? I personally really like the idea of giving your affs to the target, but if it cu…Yeah I think bedevil has some issues that are especially evident 1v1. The fact that I can transfer vessels back over to you faster than you can give them to me is pretty lol though (and needs to be fixed one way or another)@Veyils according to the log it looks like bedevil works when paralysed, but not when blind. After re-reading the AB files I think the intention is that nothing w…There was a contested domoth at the same time that I was logged in!!!
Huge rave Not sure how it works, but my assumption is that paralysis would (should) prevent its use. Same with blindness.I think it'd be a more interesting skill if it didn't cure the affs but did transfer them. That would allow it to be powerful offensively without being so OP defensively. Alternately, the cure/afflict rate could be controlled by empathy.
How long does bendaura last roughly? Min empathy/max empathy is a different duration right?We all get frustrated from time to time, but I really do hate when people run to the forums with it.
-Peanut-Overhaul is complete(tm)
Would love to see monks be non-broken. To be honest I didn't find Wobou to be toooo insane, but I have dodge and such to help me out.
