Sway + Watch

[Xio]

First let me say, Sway is a HORRIBLE name for this skill. I'm not a creative person when it comes to naming stuff, no one's perfect.

The point of sway  is to take a sweeping look at your surroundings. Mainly a 180^o pivot of the head. Such that if you were facing east, you'd look north, north-east, east, south-east, south, and only be told of anything spotted in your field of view. Insert lag and whatnot.

That's all I have to say on that, expound on it as you will, I prefer to leave my ideas more open-ended than not.

I originally was going to suggest to have this as an addendum to watch, then I thought that'd it would need something to balance it out, such as extra move lag or whatever, and I don't want to hinder watch rather than help it. So instead, I think when there is something new in the direction you are watching, the game should inform you of it. I originally thought thats how watch worked, and the first time I used watch I walked right into pack of gith who then tore my unsuspecting char apart.

I feel tired of a sudden so I'ma leave it at that.

Perhaps.... 'Scan' could serve as a better name?


I like the idea.

Actually, there have been other ideas like this.

So yeah, I'm in favor of something of this sort of thing.

A good idea, I like it.  Name sucks though, someone should name it  better.  I don't have a good name in my head right now either.

(sorry xio)

EDIT:  I need to pay more attention to the poster names apparently
