Not whatever spell, he is still restricted to Lexicanum spells, and I was thinking of putting a chain-reaction to increased risk in but have not yet quite come up with something that I like. Something along the lines of that with every continuous spell one gets greater risk on Perils of the Warp aka Crit. Fail. I.e. 1st spell = 1 = Crit. Fail 2nd spell in a row = 1 & 3 = Crit. Fail 3rd spell in a row = 1 & 3 & 5 = Crit. Fail Now let's say it was 3rd spell in a row and he now does 1 turn nothing, now it falls back only to 2nd spell in a row. So 1 & 3 are still crit. fails. But the reason I am not really for that is because it's a class ability, and I don't want to turn them into glorified Assault Marines. Plus... The system is not made for PvP at all, it was created for a PvE with giving players the advantage to make them feel more awesome. And those flaws are coming out quite brash right now, lol. I agree but then again nobody makes use of their talents much, when looking at Zuriel and his Grandmaster of the Rage for example xD And as Psyker being a spellcaster I guess people are just more likely to use them because good variety. Be assured I see the problem but I have not a solution as of yet.
I get what you are saying, and I do not want you to feel like I am attacking the system you have, but I just noticed something that was pretty clear and wanted to point it out. And I love to use my abilities! I just have a -limit- so I try to use them at the right moments.
Nah believe me I see a ton of flaws in the psyker system, but it's hard to balance something if you don't have a full-time psyker. From the spell selection over their effects as well as when they go wrong. And yeah I get that. Most likely I actually after this mission want to give always 1 talent away and give a 2nd reward which is either an additional talent or a stronger version of the 1st talent or a special piece of equipment. Because I think that is what would make combat overall more interesting - seeing talents being used in @BadDo9 's tournament as well as whenever you use Blue Meteor. Gives more dynamic to it overall.
@matt23 I said I'd wait because you were given a choice about what to do. If Claudius had gone for the webway, as he has now, I might have attacked the Blood Raven instead of you. As for the psyker thing I thought Uriel already had a system in place concerning overuse.
The stun was a pleasant surprise. At first I was like "Awh, I have to sit on my ass doing nothing." Then I read the flavor text and I was like "Oh yippee roleplaying!" (No I'm not ,like, a twelve year old girl.)
To be honest, I was surprised at how much the Sorcerers screwed up, lol. Aaaand luckily you guys did not suffer from a Daemon Prince marching through a warp rift or something :3
Well, we would have to kill him anyways... not like we could after being wasted by some sorc cabal, but we could die trying Then i got it right nice flavour text btw, really liked it.
