Nacht's Bloodstained night affects users who are treated as youkai (by being Installed).

I think most people agree that few things feel worse in this game than hitting an enemy with resistance to your damage. Not only are you losing out on a lot of damage, but you're also being hit with a penalty to momentum!

This is especially punishing against fleur users who face resistance to their physical damage. Ouch!

Losing momentum in this game is a huge deal, even just one. For certain builds, it doesn't matter. For about half of them, it does matter a lot, to the point where it essentially removes one action. Not only fleur users, but also builds that depend on 1m moves, such as curates with mass, rulers with cruel enchant, etc.

The proposal
Overall, I think the momentum loss from elemental resistances should be removed. Resistance in itself is already a huge advantage, it reduces damage greatly, especially due to how armor works, making it a little more effective. The game would simply feel better if this was removed, making it less punishing to go against someone's resisted element.


The balance
If this change was passed, it would be a nerf to builds that rely on resisting all common elements, aka Omnires builds. I propose that along with this change, we give small buffs to elemental resistance items across the board. for instance, 2% bonus to cloak of many colors, and 5% extra resist on items that give 30%. With resistance becoming less useful, allowing for more resist being built would be fair in my opinion. Existing items would just gain the bonus, with the same range of possible rolls remaining. Could also do 1% res per 5 san instead. Just not both at once :p

Overall it would be far healthier to have a bit more resistance for those builds rather than momentum loss. Building resistance is a matchup-dependent strategy in the first place. The momentum penalty makes certain matchups that suffer from losing 1m even more brutal.

Blood Binding's base stats apply over Install's base stat changes.

I know that you've said they apply like Legend Ink's bonus stat increases, which makes sense. It can result in some absurdly funny base stat values though, notably:

Avian Install + Avian Binding for 13 Base SKI
Fairy Install + Fairy Binding for 13 Base CEL.



I don't know if this is intended for the race, and this is not my bias speaking I promise, I just wanna know how to stat a future character lol.

Can we get a new table, or just. A simple verb that allows us to craft first aid supplies without.. needing to go to a table. Or use TWO different asago items (Burn Ointment for Acid/Frostbite/Singes which is cooking kit. EVERYTHING ELSE spread across like 5 different tabs in the Alchemy kit.)

Spine Leash is missing a scroll slot the other whips have due to predating the scroll system.

Is this an oversight?

I just want to run Shadofir man.

A confused monster/player (If they're shrooming it up!) who walk, instantaneously trigger their own spores, and leave none behind. I assume this isn't intended, even if you're confused why would you hit yourself?!

The mirrored enchantment for hand items' retaliation effect only works until the next round, which, since guarding lowers your evasion, is pretty much required to be used on a low celerity character, and always moves last.

So it basically never triggers since it goes away at the start of a new round. Was this intended?

Despite Cruel Commander's Contract of blood skill saying it defeats the youkai in question, it doesn't trigger Nacht's on defeat bloodstained night from activating.

Magnet runes don't change the facing of their rune stack when resonating and moving their 1 tile. In prior patches, the rune stack would turn to face the direction it moved towards.
