mctsts: This role needs a champion
venomousbirds: i'm not opposed but i definitely wouldnt champion it
venomousbirds: also the name is still very confusing to me but as nobody else sees it that way i dont think it really needs changing
mctsts: I do think it does fill one of the biggest niche I find myself struggling with when creating lists
captainluffy: well, it passed the vote
mctsts:
also the name is still very confusing to me but as nobody else sees it that way i dont think it really needs changing
I think another name could be better
mctsts: But I have no alternative suggestions
venomousbirds: poisoner
venomousbirds: joking
mctsts: makes it feel like a wolf role to me
mctsts: maybe bc it was a previously suggested wolf role
captainluffy: in most places ive seen poisoner is a mafia role
venomousbirds: yeah we also dont really name things literally after their actions generally
venomousbirds: sab wolf, but thats another wolf role
venomousbirds: huntress, hooker, medium etc all imply what they do but dont have the literal actions in them
mctsts: I don't think this is an exciting role, but it may give us more choices than Assassin or Priest for strong TK
venomousbirds: it fills a gap
venomousbirds: but i also think its weird
venomousbirds: it feels almost ua to me
mctsts: (CL and RW exist, but CL is much more complicated to use and RW is shit)
venomousbirds: oh
venomousbirds: this is almost just witch
venomousbirds: thats why i dont like it too much
venomousbirds: it just feels like an edited witch
mctsts: I can sort of see where you're coming from (it has both "heal" and "kill" actions), but the way the actions work are fundamentally different
venomousbirds: is it an attack
venomousbirds: or is it a kill
venomousbirds: (avoidable or not)
captainluffy: delayed kill
captainluffy: i dont think any role does someting like that
venomousbirds: that doesnt answer my question actually
venomousbirds: i shouldve specified
venomousbirds: is it an avoidable attack or do they just die
venomousbirds:
i dont think any role does someting like that
HoD
captainluffy: its avoidable if they use the cure, or if they die first
mctsts:
is it an avoidable attack or do they just die
unavoidable attack = kill
venomousbirds: yeah
venomousbirds: that makes sense
venomousbirds:
its avoidable if they use the cure, or if they die first
also not what i was asking
venomousbirds: yeah in that case it'll have to be specified, probably
venomousbirds: otherwise it might seem like it is an attack
venomousbirds: (hod is the only other role that uses this and its also specified there so it'd be consistent)
mctsts: "killing"/"dying" = (mostly) unavoidable "attacking" = fairly avoidable
We usually always specify (this is not an attack) as knowing the formal WWR definitions of words goes beyond what we can expect of players
mctsts:
(hod is the only other role that uses this and its also specified there so it'd be consistent)
definitely not
mctsts: PB uses it for sure
mctsts: so does Chef
mctsts: but Chef does not specify
venomousbirds: is chef poison unavoidable?
mctsts: Yes
mctsts: well
