|
|
Aside from the sweet sweet punishment I get from drinking pain potions, these things are pretty much useless for us, given that we can't use any weapons to which poison might be applied. We're at a distinct disadvantage in this regard compared to, well, everyone else.
Any plans to level the playing field, so to speak?
Maybe make available some items (claws, spiked gauntlets, etc) that aren't "true" weapons, but to which poison can be applied (though this, IMO, still violates the no weapons code.)
Or perhaps an enhanced training regimen that provides an improved resistance to the stuff. A discipline such as this would seem to well fitting a profession that places such significance, and relies so heavily upon, their bodies.
I would suggest a decent percentage gain per level, but (in the interest of fairness, and adhering to a "body-reverent" type of philosophy) remove the ability to raise the resistance by poisoning ourselves (critter poison is another matter...)
Alternately, simply raising the cap might be reasonable, with perhaps a small (1-2%) gain per level to slightly accelerate the process (if that seems unbalanced, the percentage gained by advancement could be mitigated by a level cap, should one choose to "train" the resistance faster than would normally be achieved.)
If we can't use it, we should at least be less susceptible to it.

I asked awhile back, and someone -- Morrigan, maybe -- said that they thought poison would be able to be applied to the fingernail implants (whenever they come out).

I only said they would be able to be used for skinning, nothing about poison. _________________ God has no place within these walls, just as facts have no place within organized religion.

While I don't concider poison to be very Guardianly, this will be somewhat addressed in live. _________________ ~Hunter~ |

Ah, my mistake. Sorry.
