I think Tribunals especially the adjudicators should get pure sight meaning they see all: Invis, camo'd. and hidden.
As it stands now Tribunals really do not get ninjas or thieves because they are requires to stay visible in the cities. I think Tribunes should be able to use there own abilities like hide and still watch the cities. When they mark a criminal they step out and inform the criminal why they were wanted immediately or as soon as they can.
Just food for thought...
Well, first off, tribunals not getting ninjas, thieves, or rangers is a complete falsity. They get them plenty well. Second, all of those classes can be Tribs, so even if they couldn't, anyone who wanted to could make one of them, become a Trib, and take them down. Third, thieves in my experience at least, need that extra edge. They're thieves. They steal, or in some cases kill. If Tribs could see them, it'd be terrible. I could go on, but I'll refrain for now.
There are PLENTY of ways for a tribunal to catch a thief/ninja.
Thieves and Ninjas are masters of hiding, why would joining a lawful organization give you special abilities to see them?
This would DESTROY the thief class especially. Thieves are MEANT to fight in cities. They are MEANT to avoid their opponents, tribunal included.
A nonundead thief can't go straight up with a melee char or really any class. They rely on their unique skills and element of surprise to win the battle. If we did this, it would make them AMAZINGLY easy to catch.
They're too easy to catch as it is because of how the Blood Guard works, if you were to ask me.
Alright what about??
What about allowing the tribunes to hide by camo, invis or hidden when they watch a town?
Don't tell me you seriously believe they need a powerup.
Are you...serious, Cezar?
Tribunal has some of the coolest cabal abilities available...they are able to screw people who attack them by ensuring everyone in their cabal is REQUIRED to hunt them and they have a skill which makes their escape from an area AMAZINGLY easy.
they do NOT need to be able to hide...in fact, they aren't ALLOWED to hide and flag as it would DESTROY the nonlawful side of rp. If you overpower a normal cabal, you end with weakening another cabal. If you overpower tribunal you gimp 1/3 of the pbase.
Tribunals are not MEANT to necessarily catch criminals with ease. That's like giving goodies all kinds of special spells and skills because they "should" win. As a game issue, Tribunals should not be given preferrence because of their service. Lawfuls should be JUST as able and powerful as Chaotics.
They're strong enough as is. Trust me.
Trust me, I don't like agreeing with Acerbity, but they definitely are. I have alot of suggestions for Tribunal which could change the form of their power, but this would PURELY make them ALOT more powerful. Letting any class have hide and see everyone? I would prefer see an ogre with hellstream.
He's not suggesting to give all Tribunal hiding abilities, but allowing Tribby's that have hide/camo/etc to hide while they watch towns, and still be allowed to mark people.
The law requires Tribunals to be visible in towns. To me that's just a fair to give people the opportunity to follow the law and gives them no excuse if they break the law.
As for giving Tribs the ability to see hidden, camo, invis, beyond their class abilities, I agree with Behrens who has said he likes them having a weakness to go along with their strengths. I don't forsee them gaining that ability any time soon.
REDMARKERED. WARNING ISSUE.
**
Raar.**
might this be classified cabal information?
Yes.
Cabal skills, whether old or new, are not really supposed to be discussed. Especially 2.0 skills/spells.
So much to shame about them?
jk.
