Final December classlead changes, part 3

Written by: Garryn
Date: Tuesday, December 17th, 2013
Addressed to: Everyone


[100] The Laesan stance (Knifeplay) now increases dexterity by 1, and the dodging bonus was removed from Circling (Knifeplay)

[100] Spider Negate (Beastmastery) now gives a 10% physical resist penalty instead of reducing dodging

[100] Befuddle (Thespia) now gives +1 dexterity (+2 for Dancer specialisation)

[106] Addiction is now cured by wormwood instead of nightshade; it is now also cured by focus

[116] Hecate (Shamanism) reworked to provide delayed curses instead of masked afflictions

[120] Being proned now also dismounts

[120] New Wyrmriding ability: Clinging

[131] Bloodscourge (Knifeplay) no longer duplicates afflictions, and it can hit with all envenomable toxins now

[139] New Runelore ability: Iora

[145] Oxalis (Toxins) now only strips blindness

- Most profession pets/summons are now immune to intimidate/cowardice/terrify if they are in the room with their owner; this currently applies to treants, falcons, kestrels, hounds, songbirds, cobras, icewyrms, basilisks, Malignist demons except bloodworms, Druid roots, and Hunting animals

- Removed the equilibrium loss after a successful mounted Taming Track

- Added a room message to passive curing ticks of: Healing rite (Devotion), Siphon (Malignosis), Antibodies/Transmission (Shadowbinding), Thespia (Therapeutics)

- Kai energy (Kaido), taint (Noctu), imbues (Evocation) are now lost upon dying

- Protection offered by the frost and venom elixirs reduced to 10% (down from 25 and 15, respectively)

- Powersoul (Warding) is once again an active defence that increases qjab speed and reduces qjab damage; bashing damage should remain mostly the same

- Multiple Wytchen can now give marks to the same person, with each mark only working for the Wytch that gave it

- Lesser marks with periodic ticks only flare if their brander is in room, and they do stack

- The Arctar mark now allows the brander's curses to bypass curseward, instead of preventing it from being used

- Self-igniting of Istria marks is now done using IGNITE MARK FOR <mark owner>, as you could have multiple

- Belial mark damage now scales to afflictions even if not burning, to a lesser extent than when burning; damage at 0 afflictions remains unchanged

- Claw (Shapeshifting) only needs one arm now

- You can now lay traps while mounted

- Hangedman now prones instead if it fails to entangle - this is to allow the levitating version to function

- Mark return (Trailblazing) is now a channeled action (meaning it fails if you use any other commands)

- Axetoss (Hunting) has been slowed down to prevent excessive stacking

- Disruptors (Engineering research) now require a red shard instead of a blue one

- Kai net (Telepathy) changed to only give kai from attacks occuring in a different room than the monk -- this means that monks no longer have any way to gain kai from in-room attacks unless they are targetted at them; kai net's mana drain reduced
