Classlead Changes

Written by: Dranor, God of Imagination
Date: Friday, February 5th, 2010
Addressed to: Everyone


- New Sabotage ability: 'Scourge'.

- New Engineering ability: 'SappingCharge'.

- New Shielddance ability: 'Fling'.

- New Bonding ability for Druids: 'Dryad', and new associated powers:
'Consume' and 'Overgrowth'. I was a little hesitant about the Overgrowth
ability, both from technical and balance standpoints. So, for now, the
ability will only work on rooms in natural environments, and I will be
keeping an eye on it to make sure that it doesn't cause any unintended
side-effects.

- New ability in Runelore for Runeguards: 'Mastery'.

- Transcendent Tamers can now teach their pets one extra ability from
the choice of skills assigned to that type of pet.

- The Impale ability in Hunting has had its functionality completely
changed.

- Evade will no longer trigger the follow movement tracking abilities:
alertness, Trailblazing watch, and the alarm vibration.

- Vodun Obliterate can now only be used in the room with the target, or
the next room over. I also slightly extended the amount of time
Obliterate requires to kill the target.

- Bonding Pound on a standing target will now no longer use balance.

- The syntax to reject grace is now RENOUNCE GRACE.

- You will now be required to AGREE in order to reject your Patron.

- The balance time required to put the Doubletime and Bloodthirst
defences up has been decreased.

- The Devotion Inspiration defence will now last longer.

- The Grove Guardian energy requirement has been decreased.

- Necromancy deathaura will no longer cause damage.

- Runelore Carve will now immediately afflict the target initially after
the carve is complete.

- I've changed the logic for the illusion equilibrium time associated
with the Staff of Illusion and Sabotage so that the staff does not allow you
to display extremely long illusions in conjunction with fast dstabs.

- The first CrescentCut of a Knifeplay combo will now shred the aura of
rebounding, doing decreased damage if the aura is present.

Hi folks! This year has been a challenge on many of us, and I can only hope the next year goes by more smoothly. Having said that, we have reached the end of 2020, woo! This was my first not-quite-a-year on Imperian, and it has been a whole learning experience. It has been a bit…
