I'm requesting for a family curse. The curse would affect the firstborn child as soon as said child's curse-affected parent has died. Visible indicators of the curse are that the affected's sclera are red.

The curse itself is to obey the orders of the wearer of a specific ring, as long as the ring is both worn and touched by the opposite hand, both against bare skin. Due to the size of the ring, shaitans would be unable to wear the ring, but it otherwise would fit most fingers- it strangely never seems to be loose or too tight-fighting in most circumstances.

New orders have priority over old orders, so one could not order "never listen to orders again", as the next order would just trump such. Orders that are impossible to follow (such as "fly by flapping your arms really hard") are ignored, if the afflicted believes the order to be impossible. Long-lasting orders ("kill these roaches in my house and continue to do so for every roach that comes in") will continued to be followed until the orders are deemed impossible by the afflicted (the house is demolished, someone casts an illusion that makes the afflicted think the house is demolished, etc).

The ring would appear to be an ordinary gold ring with miniscule carvings on the inside of said ring. The ring would be Divine-enchanted, in such a way that it is indestructoble. The ring can still be lost, however- thrown into the ocean or otherwise.

As for who would have the ring? Unfortunately, I haven't thought of that yet. If it is required for the approval, I will post an update to this thread with such.

It'd be cool if Aquamancer got a toggle skill of sorts that disabled the additional effects related to Crests.

This is mostly so that certain skills like Call Storm don't consume crests when you don't want them to, since sometimes you need the crests for something else.

Pacifist Boon should prevent the infliction of the Brighten status effect on the mage casting the spell, because the bonus damage from being attacked while having it causes Pacifist Boon to break.

Hello.

More sign options would be nice. Especially for posting outside of doors. Many of the current ones are very visually obtrusive. And while they do convey information, it'd be nice to have smaller ones that are more aesthetically pleasing.

Example:

Quote:Overwatch
3M
3 Skill Ranks
10 FP (+2 per Rank)
Utility Skill

Shoot first, ask questions later. On use, you'll lock onto a direction. The next enemy that moves within your line of sight, or uses movement skills will be attacked with a penalty of -15 Hit.

If the enemy is Feared, the penalties are doubled, but movement will be interrupted and they'll be inflicted with Clumsy and Slow LV2 until your next round.

Quote:Squadsight
Passive
1 Skill Rank

You're adept at picking up hints from your allies behavior, becoming an extension of them. This skill makes Overwatch's line of sight also take account of your allies' lines of sight, but the penalty is further lowered to -20 Hit.

Quote:Take Cover
1M
1 Skill Rank
Defensive Skill

A good perception of where to hide your boots is needed for a well-lived gunner. On use, target a location within 6 range that has any dense field objects. You'll tumble and become adjacent to it and gain 'Taking Cover' for 4 rounds.

While you are taking cover, if you are adjacent to any dense field objects, all enemy projectiles will be destroyed before making contact, and all basic attacks outside of melee range have a 50% chance to deal no damage.

Every time this effect activates, the field object will take 10 damage (If the object cannot take damage, the duration is instead reduced by 1 round).

Quote:Close-Quarters Combat
3M
3 Skill Ranks
10 FP (+2 per Rank)
Defensive Skill

Sometimes, the enemy will be in your face, but that doesn't mean you'll be defenseless. On use, holster your guns, becoming unable to use them, and enter a Close-Quarters Combat stance which empowers your Bare Fists with the Finesse scaling and gives you a Scaled SKI% chance to parry attacks from daggers and fists (-50% damage).

The stance can be dropped if you use the skill again, in which you'll pull out your gun(s).

Rank 1 - Grants the Disorient and Suppress skills.
Rank 2 - Reduces Grapple's Momentum cost by 2 and enables Riposte (50% base chance) while stance is active.
Rank 3 - Grants the Takedown skill.

Disorient Skill: Delivers a sudden jab to an adjacent target's face, dealing Blunt physical damage (+100% bonus Scaled CEL) and inflicting Clumsy for 2 rounds. This can critically hit.
Suppress Skill: Delivers a heavy knee to an adjacent target's gut, dealing Blunt physical damage (+100% bonus Scaled STR) and inflicting Silence for 2 rounds. This will interrupt Invocations.
Takedown Skill: Requires opponent to be Grappled. Slams the opponent over your shoulder and into the ground, dealing Blunt physical damage (+100% bonus Scaled SKI) and inflicting Knockdown. This will extend the duration of any Clumsy or Silence by 2 more rounds, and if it defeats an opponent, they'll be inflicted with Certain Defeat for 3 rounds.

Some of the tiles in the new crypt map have different densities or layers than they should have. I assume the errors are symmetrical on the map, and are also reflected in other places these tiles are used. The pink lines by the statues mean that I do not think there should be solid tiles behind where the statues' heads are.

Additionally, apparently this map can teleport you into the Sunken Forest's first map with those insect enemies if:
you log out while sitting in the top left chair of the left table in the central tree area, then log back in there. I have not been able to reproduce it, but I should mention it.

I also made a map request thread about this you can see here:

Blablabla monk feels clunky blablabla buffs

BK's Indomitable seems to be applying the incorrect BW reduction on torsos.

Examples:

38 Weight Torso

Expected BW: 34/35 (depending on how the game rounds it)
Actual BW: 36

44 Weight Torso

Expected BW: 39/40 (again depending how the game rounds it)
Actual BW: 41

These skills should probably be touched in the future, my main observation points so far are the following:

- They cost 5 SP each, which could be lowered to 3 SP.
- Their range should be 6 (+1 if Tome).
- Their duration should be 3 + (Tactics Rank).
- The momentum cost should be 4+M, so it ends your round upon using either.
- The effects should be less extreme, so this is not so busted in PvP, yet retain its utility in PvE.

Quote:Analyze Weakness

Study and focus one enemy and try to find any openings to exploit. For 3 + (Tactics Rank/2) rounds, increases the target's damage taken by X%. (X = 10 + Tactics Rank + Skill Rank*2)

Furthermore, every time an unit that is not yourself scores a Critical Hit or exploits an Elemental Weakness over the Analyzed enemy, your Tactics Rank is increased by 1 (once per unit).

If your Tactics Rank is above A, you will also call out any elemental weaknesses the target has. (If the enemy is inflicted with Analyze Weakness of a LV equal or higher than your attempt, the skill will refund the Momentum and you'll only call out their weaknesses, without refreshing the buff.)

If you are defeated or inflicted with Blind, the Analysis ends.

Quote:Enemy Evaluation

Attempt to predict your opponent's movements based on patterns. For 3 + (Tactics Rank/2) rounds, there will be a X% chance that the unit's attacks, skills or spells will become predictable, resulting in a Glancing Blow instead of a successful Hit. (X = 15 + Tactics Rank + Skill Rank*2)

Furthermore, if the target of Enemy Evaluation uses any action affected by Repeat Action, their Hit, Evade and Critical will be halved on the next round. (This effect is always active if the enemy is a non-boss monster)

If you are defeated or inflicted with Silence, the Evaluation ends.

In line with me rarely ever filling all of my trait slots with things that I actually really like / want for my character, I randomly stumbled across an idea for a new trait.

Sentimental Swap (Requires Weapon Sentimentality)
It always feels better to go back to ol' reliable. Swapping to your Sentimentality weapon of choice costs 1M instead of 3M. (Or refunds 2, whichever would probably be fine.) However, switching away from your Sentimentality weapon costs 1M more (for a total of 4M.)
