| BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZT, posted on Tue Jun 4 08:44:31 2013 | | Posted by: Aristophanes | | Category: Guilds | The witches' main damaging offensive spell, Mother Feelbright's Busy Bees, has been largely re-written to remove its reliance upon the fighting skill, fighting.range.thrown.
In short, your ability to damage a victim is no longer dependent upon hitting them with a gob of honey.
It is now a purely magical spell, relying upon your ability to summon and control a swarm of bees.
In addition to this:
* The skills crafts.pottery.forming.shaping and magic.methods.elemental.air have been replaced with magic.methods.mental.channeling and magic.methods.mental.cursing.
* Victims no longer try to run away from the swarm of bees.
* The guild point cost of the spell has been reduced from 75 to 60.
This is not a complete list - there are a lot more features and changes being introduced than I have mentioned.
I do offer the following pieces of advice, though:
* Be careful with the amount of honey you try to use when casting. If you use too much, you could be in for a nasty surprise.
* Be careful when trying to cast on a victim that you (or another witch) has already cast on for the same reason.
Happy bee-ing! |
