What kinda sucks is...

[konidias]

That certain gods have VERY helpful things.. like Bile adding +100 sustenance is great, but I don't want to worship Bile, as it wouldn't go along with my "good guy" rp character.

It sucks that I can't worship a good god and get sustenance aiding. I would rather end up not worshiping anything because most all the other gods make you more vulnerable to stuff, and while you are invulnerable to certain things, I think it's a bad idea to have such an unbalanced character.

I mean sure, if you worship bile and wear a good amulet with fire resistance, you're set, but then you're still having to worship some evil god that doesn't fit your character. :|

Uh, each have their ups and downs. But that's the fun

[ChocoboGrn]

"Bile Soul Eaters, Harbingers of Death, Nameless Lords of the Tomb"

Sounds like that can be accomplished with a character who really likes fighting/participating in wars.

Bile's enemy is DianChent, a Paladin. Bile is EVIL.

I think Bile should have another downside, as Bile's 6-hunger-points-an-hour thing is INSANE.

Yeah I know, Bile is like best God hands down. It gives you like 4-5 invulnerabilities, and only makes you weak against fire, which a fire amulet can even out. You barely have to eat, and you're immune to disease? You're like immortal.

I don't want to worship Bile as my rp character is not evil, but I will be pretty much forced to worship him if I get all those advantages. :|

Yes Deathchill, each have their ups and downs, this I know, but as I said, the one that has the ups I want, just happens to be the spawn of satan.

What's that old-school philosophy about dark magic... you receive enormous power and ability, if you're willing to pay the price? Well, it seems like Bile doesn't have much of a price, other than sacrificing RP. Considering most spells will kill you instantly anyway, whether they're fire or not, a little extra fire damage is just free cremation.

Hm, well, we can't CAST fire spells either. I think i'll check if thats in effect yet. We also have slower health regen. We can't turn away undead and stuff...Uh, guess thats it. Oh, we also have a harder problem reviving, protecting, and healing, but that doesn't seem very important for a PRIEST does it? Nope, not at all.
We also only get one altar effect, no holy relics. I really don't know what the avatars do yet, so...

Overall, Bile has a lot of advantages, but it is weighed down by a lot of small disadvantages that probably won't be noticable until Graal 2002 develops more.

I worship Balor and have a sustenance amulet >;]

[GryffonDurime]

I beleive Avatar is a summoning spell that creates, essentially, a golem of your God's power. In which Bile's stinks. Sure, it has the usual HP and Attack of an Avatar, but it has NO DEFENCE, which means it can be killed easily.....Unlike Brigid's Avatar which has 1000 HP and 50 attack and defence.....and Brigid's easy ressurections. The only major porblem is, well, the dependance on others for frikkin food.

"Avatar: 1x1, 350 hp, ac -12 wc -1 dam 50 armour 0 Attack Type: Cold"

Uh, 350 hp. Thats good.
AC = -12. That means anyone with a weapon class of 9 or above can't hit it. Conisidering my Weapon Class is like 15, that's a very good AC.

WC = -1. That (I think) means it can automatically hit anything with a AC of -2 or higher...

Armour = 0. Thats just physical resistance. Honestly, it's not very useful.

On the other hand, Brigid's "Avatar: 2x2, 1000 hp, ac -5 wc -1 dam 50 armour 50 Attacktypes: Physical"

If it's armour is 50, I wonder if that would mean its completely open to cold attacks?

((Yea, but when you summon this thing, we'll probabally be at like 500 hp...))

((Actually, that means you have a REALLY bad WC.))

((Considering most of us have a POSOTIVE AC...))

((Actually, it makes the difference between 1hp and death.))

((Uh no.))

[_0AfTeRsHoCk0_]

I agree with Koni. I wanted to worship bile from the start, but I don't wantto be seen as evil or anything. Either make Bile more vulnerable to things, or try and drop his sustenance.

[-Axel-]

I would of personally liked Priests to be able to have powers without worship. My char is a Necro, but doesn't mean he is evil =(

[LordZen]

Bile is good right now but when more gameplay features are implemented I think that things will seem alot more evened out.
