Basic Action Macro - Create a Diversion options #722

Open ExileofBrokenSky opened 1 year ago

ExileofBrokenSky commented 1 year ago

Create a Diversion - Gesture and - Trick are identical rules wise. Rather than have both of those on the basic macro action, they should be merged and the second Create a Diversion option should become: Distracting Words, which does have different rules.

Rule for clarity: "With a gesture, a trick, or some distracting words, you can create a diversion that draws creatures' attention elsewhere. If you use a gesture or trick, this action gains the [manipulate] trait. If you use distracting words, it gains the [auditory] and [linguistic] traits.

All three are there now.

Though Distracting Words has a hand icon, like Gesture. The mouth icon, like Trick, would probably be more suited.

I wonder if maybe some of the actions should get another level of menu. I.e., you pick Create a Diversion, then get an menu of Trick, Gesture, or Distracting Words. E.g., Perform has nine different variants. It seems a bit much to list them all.

a submenu would be nice, bet most ppl would use performancing - dancing because of swashbuckler-dancer subclass, and I guess maybe bards do exist.
