[Amendment] Wight creation and destruction

[PolarLoLs 984]

I dont know much about mystic but i feel the wording for being sapped could be better, something along the lines of "Due to being sapped the Wight descends to the corporeality of a revenant." or something along those lines, simpler wording so it isnt jumbled with the mess thats Mystic redlines

[MysticalWeasel 910]

Edited Observer to better clarify and upped it from [1] mystic needing to know conjoinment to [3] mystics needing to know it.

Coming from you especially with what your group is doing, none of this strikes me as a well-meaning amendment and more as a pre-emptive measure to capitalize off this change. 

w troglodyte comment, somehow the guy that is playing a zar akal is going to make the mystic adjacent group near go on a mass disconnect spree oh wow my brain is pulsing with immense power

With how rare current sapping is between different Mystic groups, considering how completely easy it is, I don't expect much to come of the change, in terms of bad faith. But I do think the possibility will lead to certain people being gatekept out of the community for fear they might "act naz-like"

Idk; I think this is better than current but requires improvement. Weasel is making a handful of changes so I'll likely be quite happy with the finished product <3

@PrimnyaQuorumBack off my friends or the alpha gets involved. I will tear you to shreds boy.

Dont make killing Wights mystic exclusive, let everyone have a way to deal with them instead of only darkspawn on darkspawn violence :(

I highly doubt the intent of this amendment is to let one coven mass PK all other wights. Frankly I never seen more then two wights in one location, let alone 4 or 5

The fact that you accuse me of wanting to make an amendment for the sole purpose of self-gain is actually kind of hurtful. I am making it to mimic other CAs of the current era

Prima is a bum and I don't think you're trying to make an amendment for self gain

 

However, I do think that this sort of mechanic-mirroring mindset people are getting for lore is unnecessary("Another CA of the same tier has X mechanic, therefor this CA must also have X mechanic"). They are different lore pieces and should remain as such imo.

 

If this specifically is a step forward or backwards for wights, I'll withhold my judgement on, as I'm not too certain of how their culture in the wider lens of lotc stands right now. I did want to make that one point of mine though and that's all.

I would recommend changing this: 

Should [5] Mystics, [3] of which must know the rite of conjoinment sap a Wight, the Wight will be rendered incorporeal and unable to interact with the material world for [2] OOC months. Unable to cast or use any mystic spells or abilities imbued by being a Wight. Only able to observe the world around them. In a similar manner to that of a Revenant, yet will be unable to engage in combat.

I personally think a 2 month soft pk is a really long time, longer than any other soft pk found in other cas (to my knowledge). This would bring it on par with Zar'akal, at the very least. I would also recommend putting in some kind of anti-spawn camping redline, although it's probably not strictly necessary. I do personally think phylacteries are a dated mechanic, as we've seen necromancy moving away from them in recent times. I'm not sure what the other comments are about but that's strictly my thoughts on the proposed lore change :)

-seals you like a lich and throws you at the bottom of the sea like osama bin laden-

 

As someone who played a Necromancer with the potential for mechanics such as that, it is interesting roleplay to be sure to deal with. The sealing wars with femurlord, but there is good and bad to it. But that is perhaps with anything. I think phylactery stuff is pretty outdated though.

gives players a chance to go after bad actor wights instead of going on a hunt to find their phylacteries in the most impossible spots known to man
