Undead stuff

Post by Ebenezer Grymm »

Was just kinda thinking about something, thought I'd post it and get some feedback.

As far as Pale Masters go, they are partially undead, and undead are inherently evil, so PMs should be evil also. Thats kind of a common and agreed upon line of thinking.

But further than that, if lets say we take the "make PMs more like undead" route, should they also get a little resistance to slash and pierce, and a little vulnerablility to bludge?

Maybe a little resistance to cold dmg, but an equal amt. of vulnerability to fire?

Just tossing some stuff around, what'dya think?
This will not be over quickly.

You will not enjoy this.

The bigest reason they should be evil is that they are kind of the arch enemy of pallys yet most of em are neutral hence immune to smite.....

Why would I want to count 12 hours twice? I’m perfectly capable of counting to 24, and while we’re at it, can someone go shoot named time zones. GMT+x is all we need!

We've got plans for the PM's, close to your suggestion, its just a matter of having the time to implement.

Yes, I'm a DM, but your build still sucks.

I would venture to say that those resistances are taken up in the access to epic warding and epic mage armor. That is, if I've read them correctly. This is just my take on things.

Go fight the White Lord with an evil character, even the Lumi Pallys, and then lets see what ya think. Evil alone is going to be a huge thing, then add in vunerabilities and PM's can be waxed pretty easy.

Remember this is about balance, not about PM's being totally annilated without effort...

PM things

Post by Rummybum »

Back to the original post though... I think if PM's have the advantages of undead they absolutely should have the disadvantages. I think Eb's idea here is pretty good. I especially think this is an inherently evil class neutral pm is just silly.

I wasn't aware that changes had gone in yet...but I did notice a lot of frustration about something on reflection last night that sounded vaguely nerf-related.

Yeah...because DM's don't know what they are talking about.
