    [.11] Elemental Manipulation incant ?

    Elemental Manipulation (General, Item [Any], Times Ever) - Elemental Manipulation allows the user to alter a single spell as it is cast from memory so that it manifests with the Elemental qualifier instead of the Spell qualifier. The user would incant the spell as normal, simply replacing the...

    [.11] Combined Strike feels very underwhelming

    Yes, that would help enough for me to take it. I agree that combined strike is better for Celestial than Earth. However, thats a real low bar of comparison because it's so bad on Earth. I don't think combined strike is additive for Celestial, or Earth, at all. Combining spell damage and weapon...

    [.11] Combined Strike feels very underwhelming

    Especially when compared to United Blow. United Blow gives an adept more options and a substantial increase in potential damage in combat. Converts spells to Body at x 10 per level. (versus 5 per level normally) Yes, there is a positioning requirement for melee. Combined Strike is mostly a...

    [.11] South Michigan - Oct 5-8 - Thoughts and Musings

    I really missed an offensive HM option for pure scholars. It's basically just the Storm one.

    [.11] Channeling Playtest Experiences

    that's an interesting point. Do you think balance choices should take monster stats into account? I don't feel monster stats are consistent enough for that.

    I wouldn't be too hasty, the magics are quite strange and constantly in flux. You might be able to make use of this item. -Gideon

    [.11] Channeling Playtest Experiences

    I agree. The mathematical argument is only viable 'if' the goal is for channeling to be an equally efficient primary choice for casters. If it's designed to be a slightly less efficient option/supplement, as Polare says, I think it's very difficult to argue with math. Perhaps that should...

    Season Closer Information (HARD 9PM game start)

    Does this mean it's a 'carry everything on you' beginning? Or can we set up cabins ahead of time per normal? Joe

    [.11] Higher Manifestation /Cross School

    I agree Channeling buffs should not be behind HM, and thus 9th level spells. I do not agree that Formal magic should be accessible without a 9th. I just want confirmation on Higher Manifestation.

    [.11] Higher Manifestation /Cross School

    We should update the wording on Higher Manifestation so it is more clear that you cannot use HM granted from Earth Formal to channel Celestial without a wand. (or vice Versa) Unless that is the intent, in which case I think that is silly, but the packet is worded fine. -Joe

    [.11] Presence of Natural Armor

    40 build and then giving up 10 cloaks is a big choice, being only available to 2 specific builds. I can understand that reasoning. I don't particularly like it, but I agree it is a core principle in 2.0.

    [.11] Presence of Natural Armor

    :) I get what you are saying, but murdering undead is really fun for people. And with Undead being called out as specifically moving to a body + armor model, it's seems like an easy choice.

    Dragonfall Event Feedback - What are your thoughts about the 2.0 Rules

    If your takeouts are defended against you cannot meditate them back, only if they missed or are blocked. (Which might be what you meant by defended)

    Dragonfall Event Feedback - What are your thoughts about the 2.0 Rules

    I agree, that it's healthy for the game. I just want some more exposure to the High body/High Armor mobs w/no martial defenses, to see the slay/assassinate builds shine. I think within a playtest it's tough to see all those variants, or to have the people who could shine, be on those mods...

    Dragonfall Event Feedback - What are your thoughts about the 2.0 Rules

    I hate hate hate, "Are you healed" unless we all get our own copy of the monster manual, we have no basis for "only asking the question when there is a reason" Anything that can get verbally spammed during combat is not a good thing. I'm worried Resolute on NPCs is going to push people into...

    Dragonfall Event Feedback - What what your favorite Experience/Costume/Interaction?

    Dealing with the Illithid was a very small moment within the weekend, but for me it has become one of my favorites from Larping. First off, it had a general sense of surprise. Real surprise. Not in a frustrating "jumped out from the darkness , Gotcha" way. But in a "This is unexpected and...
