Ideas for The Next Meeting

[Wyrmspawn]

+1 for the idea, it's really a great one.. But there are certain things I didn't understand. If these skills are only for unarmed, then suppose I use my skill points to gain the skills, and later on go and get armed, what will happen to these skills? Will I still be able to use my existing skills?

If it works like "More Criticals" & "Better Criticals", then the answer is "no". I fell into that trap with them back when skills were 1st introduced in version 0.6.10(I think that's the right version) as I upped them both back when I was using the "Flagstone's Pride" and when I switched to the RoL I was none to happy that I wasted 3 skill points.

Well, think of it this this way; if you've invested enough skill points into unarmed skills. There would be more of an advantage to going unarmed than armed. That's what these skills are about, making one without a weapon as tough as any armed man, a skill that the Chinese have perfected for centuries.

Agreed again with the idea, but then again we have to wait 4 level ups to get just one skill point, and there are so many weapons that offer good stats and cause huge damage. And again we come to the same question, what happens if you DO want to go armed? All the skills will just go waste considering they can be used only when ur unarmed.

It's a choice you will have to make and stick with, or abandon and live without.

The game is chalk full of things like this, it's what makes the replay value so high.

Agreed. You don't roll a Monk in a Pen and Paper RPG, and then get mad because you suck with a battle axe.

Very true! +1

PS: I thought monks are not allowed to use bladed weapons to begin with? (at least in D+D)
