Slorbin 1774 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Suggested techlock: -Molotov Cocktails and 'Alchemical Fire' from ethanol and a rag, made through non-FA means, CANNOT be created anymore. All 'Alchemical Fire' items in the world are redundant. -Instead, if you want to use a Molotov, you can create Will O' Bottles, found in here. There is no reason why molotovs, such a powerful weapon, should be available to literally anyone with an edit tag at this time period. This is especially true considering that the lore for alchemy in ‘core potions', under 'Will O' the Bottle'. states that Alchemical Fire, what molotovs are commonly referred to, are supposed to be rare. Renaming a bottle to ‘alchemist's fire’ and emoting throwing it at someone is so horribly abusive yet somehow legal. Holy hell, no one should be running around with Molotov Cocktails in this day and age. They're somehow more powerful than the Will O' bottles, which require a feat, yet you can pull one out of thin air like it's nothing. LT pls make ruling. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valannor 6345 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Haha, no. Will O' Bottles are still more powerful than normal molotovs anyway, this is a bad take. Edit: Also 'Alchemist's Fire' is just a funny marketing name people use. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Also 'Alchemist's Fire' is just a funny marketing name people use. I mean, I've seen people emoting it just exploding into a giant fireball several times and having it stick to literally everything, and having the exact same effect of Will O' Bottles down to an exact T, if not more powerful. Have I just been witnessing outliers? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sybbyl0127 618 Share Posted June 7, 2021 molotovs are weak anyways unless you use gasoline which we dont have, or modern day booze if you think someone is powergaming their flaming quick burn booze bottles just modreq no need to go as far as techlock 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nug 1886 Share Posted June 7, 2021 i just don't think more ooc rules/restrictions of rp possibilities is cool when it's just something that should be dealt with via a mod since it would pretty much fall under powergaming 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maclunkey 453 Share Posted June 9, 2021 This ain't it. You expect techlock to be changed for flammables simply because you failed to /modreq in the face of metagaming? Omegalol. If molotovs were to be removed from techlock then you might as well kiss every other flammable material goodbye. Oil, alcohol, etc. It just wouldn't make sense. The number of possibilities for other things that could be created would be rendered null; such as torches or oil lanterns to name a few. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
