Playing with Vraes now. Kincaid is definitely better IMO for NM ironman. Vraes makes for so many nail biting moments like Orc warlords that you could not remove AP from or the seers (I imagine but have not made it to CoD yet, still highly accurate melee attacks that hit for 1000 are going to suck, Kincaid's SP just ate those up). He is balanced, fun to play, but ironmaning with him is just way more stressful than with Kincaid. Kincaid also gets loads of goodies in addition to the amazing guarantee of SP in the form of FU, AoE, great cursing, ranged attacks (amazing when you need a tank to be on a certain square), and CS. Something I would love to see added to Vraes to make him a bit more of a presence on the field is a ranged attack. Idea: skill, weapon toss, uses all remaining ap and mp, toss your weapon(s) up to 3 squares away for weapon damage to the foe. Uses whatever weapon skill you are utilizing for damage. Gives a meaningful thing to do with 1 AP when using 2/3 AP weapons and 3 AP when using 4 AP weapons. Also makes higher AP weapons more attractive as even with all the boosts you have been giving them they still fall way behind 1 AP weapons.

I have some thoughts on that thrown weapon thingy matrim but I already feel like I speculate too much and am not sure of implementation... My big concern is talent limits and implementation time etc. I think it would need to be tied to the weapon type, such as thrown spear rather than a skill or talent, but I dunno, that's my impression of the save gave and engine constraints. |
