The difference is that you don't have RP built around a tae'dae's exact balance level, or how much Dazzle costs. The saplings are different. More was based on them being exactly the same than you seem to realize. And you don't seem to want to understand that some things are important. Its the same reason why Faethorn has been such a pain in the ass, because there are never explanations for anything. They force one thing down our throats, and then change it when they realize it isn't working, and try and give us yet another bitter pill.

Making the saplings resist the opposing druids is a huge change. It takes the saplings from being just ordinary trees, to being tied specifically with either the Serenwilde or the Glomdoring. Blackthorns and such grow in the Serenwilde. There is no assumable reason except "They're wyrded" that is going to be used to explain why Hartstone are now resisted by Blackthorn trees.

Something that big, that Divine and players have based things around, when changed, deserves an explanation.

Here is a reason for you:

170 years after the comming of Estarra, the Great Tree spirit finally noticed that there was some changes to his being. He noticed the absence of many of the trees of Ackelberry, and became upset with the druid's lack of protection. Because of that, he now made it so that when a druid tries to destroy the forest of another druid, while there are still new trees in the area, they are more slow in doing so, to teach them patience and to teach them the importance of protecting all trees.

Again, I dissagree.

The trees have ALWAYS been different. but mechanically they were the same. A Harstone could never plant a Rowan, even if they wanted to. Why not?

Why do you need explanations spoon fed to you? That is so boring! Give people who like to do such things the opportunity to write the books and help give people new understanding. Let them be the RL equivalent of the Universities and research institutions.

I know you love saying that whatever the players say is reality, but that isn't true. Lots of people said that the fae hated Night. The fae said that they hated Night. Guess what? Nowadays, the fae don't hate Night. They used to beg for protection, and now they are resigned to their fate. ...

Daganev, no. Some things need to be explained. Things in the real world always have a cause. If a bomb goes off in New York city, you don't just say "Hey, the Canadians did it." and magically it becomes true. There is a cause and an effect. There is a chain of events that happen to cause something to change. Skipping that does not an immersive environment make.

What the hell?

When a Player is able to make the charachter do research, it does not "magically" happen. What happens is that the Player is now able to become part of the creative process of the game, and ADD to the world history. It is what makes the game dynamic and "alive" because not everything is dictated on high.

Find out ingame what the chain of events were, you don't need the admin to tell you the answer. You the player can "Make it up" while your Charachter can "discover it", its called roleplay.

However, getting those bonuses would really hinder thier ability to pretend they are slow-witted as well as they have over the past few generations, it would ruin the whole "plausable deniablity" thing.

What's this? A mechanics change might ruin RP?
Are you sure you want to admit that?

Don't think this is quite true anymore, now it's a close second. Not much consolation I bet!

this is sad... but I can pretty much sum up every post Ildaudid makes concerning game mechanics to "Warrios are shafted.. hopefully Roark will fix us... hopefully... "

Darkrebirth is like lichdom on crack. When you die, anywhere on prime, if you have darkrebirth up you are reborn back at your nest with 0 experience loss. It cannot be stopped and it cannot be stripped except via inquisition. Also, when your darkrebirth fires you get a def called dark spirit that has a chance of giving people afflictions when they hit you.

It's a really ridiculous skill and is universally agreed to be overpowered.
