Being a celestial templar also gives you access to high magic which helps too. There are lots of solutions that fix the situation, they just require you not being a Fighter.

Im not sure which of the two i would do. I think it mostly depends on how likely the rules being scrapped in the short term are.

I feel pretty strongly that not considering the potential for effects to ruin other's game is bad game design. I agree with your analysis once the mechanics "go live", but why design something that is likely to create an experience that isn't fun for others? This is one of the reasons I was...

Your game must run those scrolls differently than ours. Summon scrolls don't create a pet like in WOW with a pet control bar. It creates a thinking being with motivations and goals that usually aren't to follow the casters wishes without question. We have a cosmology with 24+ elemental...

Yeah Quicksilver golem was the one!

A single celestial scroll that trivialized a field battle is way too good. Can you name any Rogue or Fighter ability that does that? Maaaaybe alchemy.

The difference between. Construct/Master construct and the summon scrolls is that the golem is fully under the casters control while the other things are decidedly not.

It was not a golem suit, just a player that played the construct for them in the same way anyone would take a shift. No PC levels but it was immune to fire damage so a field battle against fire elementals became trivialized. It was almost immune to chaos, death, and several other effects in...

I missed your resolute change. That's a great suggestion! As far as point 2 goes I suspect we might just disagree. Locally we had a player that just used a Construct scroll. This scroll made a golem (pet) that was immune to whole categories of effects that trivialized whole field fights by...

I really like your list except for two points. 1. The removal of Cloak is the source of a lot of the problems with Fighters. If this change goes live there needs to be an alternative to keep Fighters from being neutrallized. 2. Master Construct is significantly more unbalancing from a...

This is consistent with Denver as well. Some Fighters locally only think the changes are really bad rather than "makes the class unplayable bad" and some celestial casters think the changes are fine, but overall the impression is overwhelmingly negative.

When you say "stun" effect do you mean that they cannot use skills like the current version or just that they cannot move, like a pin?

High Magic is a huge success in our system. It is one of the reasons Celestialists are so powerful. Why not give others classes an analogue? You create difference in the abilities. No one complains that all classes have hit points, armor, or that they spend build. Why make things different...

Thank you for this report Thousand Bones. I am troubled by the news you bring, but it is consistent with what we know of Sark and the Vilker previously.

Sark the leader of the Vilker Hobgoblins was chosen as Vysen. This bodes poorly for our peaceful relations with the tribes of the Howling Woods. I hope Dargok can keep the Necromancer "in line" as he claims.

Greetings Acarthia! I'm looking for a few newer adventurers* that either want to break into the realm of politics** in Acarthia or just like information and history, to help with a special project at the next gather in November of 417. No combat experience is required, just a keen mind and the...

Thank you for compiling this Aikoll!

I'm surprised how much Magic Sky is preferred! I guess that's why Will did the poll though.

I voted for Sky High, but my real vote is for not MMR. LARPing on that site actively hurts my overall enjoyment for the weekend.

I expect this will be fairly split between Magic Sky and Sky High with Mike Paxton voting for MMR
