yeah, a krathi who's also good in a straight fight, can't wait to see them running around

... You haven't seen those? Where have you been?  ;)

Maybe now people will actually fear magickers, instead of resort to "hmm, I can probably 2-hit them before they can cast their spell" type tactics.

I'm all for magicker sub-guilds. The documentation clearly says most people may learn a spell or two but generally will stop there.

And there was some dwarf smoking spice, and I thought that was so scandalous because I'd only been playing in 'nak.


To be fair, it says "some few" Not most.

Fair enough :)

I'd go as far as to say make all elementalism into subguilds. The current elementalist roles assume you've done nothing but learn magick your whole life.

Hopefully, that pitfall can be remedied in 2.0.

... I personally never had the balls to jump a gicker whether I had an inkling it was on day 1 or day 50. Too scared.

yeah dude.. Gickers are scary..

... And now they're scarier. That guy who just casted 'mon un shrink ur ballz' you? He's a 150 day warrior baby.

Maybe I'm naive but  I guess my thought is that the players who would be really drawn to this (not power-players, they'll be put down soon enough) will be the players who want to play _average_ PCs.  PCs who struggle to stay within the "regular" society even though they find themselves cursed with foul magic.

I guess you've never met a Krathi in game :D

(I'm joking of course).

Heh, seriously ... if you think a krathi needs warrior skills to be a hellish monster in melee you're dooooooooing it wrong   ;)

I'd spend my karma subguild points on being a master basket weaver!
