And Malathyre, I think he gave a constructive critique feedback: always provide a reasonable way of getting out of it if it ruins your play time. I haven't heard of anyone being forced into playing in a particular plot on any CoPaP world, not in a very, very loooong time. Additionally, I don't know...

I'd like to thank Apandapion for bringing this up as a topic of discussion, as quarantine/restricted access plots have happened before on CoPaP, and may very well happen again. In my experience, quarantine/restricted access plots generally come from IC motivations and concerns, and add a measure of ...

It might behoove the team to simply ask the world to consider NOT giving their gear away when they retire, especially the gear in question. I think the majority of our players would consider it. If even a portion of the gear doesnt get handed down its an improvement. I can only speak for myself, bu...

Just as a point, there isn't much reason to discuss empowering healing spells when Heal is available at level 6. Since Cure Critical wounds is level 4...empowering it would just take a slot away from Heal, which is always going to be better. In terms of whether or not this issue is changed at all, n...

If this is something worth doing, let's all get on the same page. Healing spells are the following: Cure Minor wounds: 1d4 healed Cure light wounds: 1d8+caster level (maximum 5) healed, max 13.

The original post by Sarmanos asked about disease and poison. The best solution to me seems to be to take the d20 out of the equation, even if it's only against poison and disease DC's. In terms of restricting healing kit use, I think the best idea is not allowing their usage in combat. However, I'm...

In a campaign style NWN game a friend of mine ran, he used a modified type of healing kit that allowed one to restore points based upon the heal modifier only, removing the d20 from the calculation. The downside to these is they weren't stackable. If anyone is interested in an item like this for the...

Personally, I don't like autofail either and even more, I hate abilities in rpg's that allow for instant death or petrification (which is basically instant death). My lone concern is how many different things would need to be altered/changed to make them viable again if autofail is turned off. The u...

Out of every 20 times the ability is used, the odds should factor in that 1 out of those 20 times something would autofail against it. Would losing that one time really make the class unfun? For me it would, yes. The forms are very much fun to rp and that would not change, but I'd like for my chara...

turning off autofail and shifters

This topic came up in IRC today, and per the request of a CoPaP coder, I'm going to bring it up here. As you all know, with patch 1.64 comes the option to turn off autofail. Doing so is obviously attractive for many reasons, but it does mess up the shifter class for PC's quite a bit. Many shifter fo...

Web immunity works against the spell that puts spider webs all over the ground, but not against the spell that actually is cast on an individual character and holds them in place. It also seems to work against other entangling spells, too, just not against the individual web spell that some monsters...
