PM's come tomorrow.

It seems that the consensus on Blood Power nerf is to ignore END bonuses. It will become active on next turn.

As to mental defense stat, What do you think about POT? I feel it would work IC, as it represents magical power, and could well represent mental fortitude required to wield those powers. OCC it could work as Mental attacks are sort of niche attack, and would also reduce power of following spells/be reduced by spell casting just before, representing mental fatigue.

The point of keeping the golems on fire isn't for the value of fire as a weapon. It's more to keep the golems functioning at a reasonable speed.
It was never a promise. It was a dirty lie, and you all knew that. You should all know by now that you can't trust a word I say.

I chose STR because it didn't seem to be used for much and almost everyone was using it as a dump-stat.

Also, Fus Ro Dah, mother-[redacted].

ALSO, I'm currently bleeding, burning, suffocating, and 1 turn away from death. I like those odds.

Actually... *rolls* Lucky you, all the pain you are feeling is keeping you conscious even though you are going blue from lack of air by now. Not that it can be seen under all the blood and burns.

Check the cultists for soul shards, double check the leader. Hope that the thing they were trying to do wasn't finished.

((As for mental defense, POT sounds good.))

Chorkinaan grumbled as he walked. He felt left out, disappointed in a way which was impossible to ignore. Not 300 meters away was the most intense magical battle he had seen in minutes, but to take part would be to forsake the wonderous impossible science in which he was about to indulge. Besides concentration on his own magical essences, one thought raged powerfully through Chorkinaan's mind:

(God damn it, why do all the cool people have to be in the pacifistic guild?)

Keep helping Surg along to the tower. Three essences.

"well you're already on fire, so this probably won't hurt too much."

Pick up Jackson and fly him to the tower, once hes inside the regeneration field, put him down and fly back to the fight, fire breath on Easter if I have time

"No, master of birds, you may not do that. I claim his soul."

If anyone attacks me, then shatter my power staff holding all the ritual power.
Otherwise claim Jackson's soul. By grabbing tight hold of him so he can't be carried away and crushing his head.
And get out of the way of fire.

FIST. Sending PM. Use GBM plus the chaotic essence. For even smaller odds. After all, we're in Discworld, so million-to-one chances should be almost guaranteed!
