Also the same for Occultist
Oh and Infernals
Basically the classes I've never got to play on Milabar, that'd be great
Also, no more new classes, let's do a City on Meropis instead kk thanks
Also any nerf to Bard hunting should be ignored, checks in the mail kk ty
Ashtan: Chaos priests (think ethereals from WoW). I'd have said battle priests given Aegis but... That's not really 'Ashtan' theme. Uses some form of blade + shield.
Hashan: Shadow priests (obvious). Uses 1-handed staff + shield (or just 2-handed staff).
Mhaldor: Death priests? I guess. Or blood priests. Uses daggers (daeggers? hue hue) + shield. Or, again, any form of small blade.
Eleusis: Druids are basically nature priests... So repurpose them. 2-handed staff.
Targossas: They can have the boring holy-based priests. Typical mace + shield.
Cyrene: I'm stumped here, to be honest. Some sort of spirit / peace-loving Priest I guess. Similar to the 'rogue' one that MKO had, that was more utility/healer-oriented. Just shield + magic, likely.
Rogues: With the above stolen, guess the only one left would be some sort of neutral priest. Could even give them battle priests! Make warhammers great again (or flail+shield)
That love soon might end You are unbreaking
And be known in its aching Though quaking
Shown in this shaking Though crazy
Lately of my wasteland, baby That's just wasteland, baby

Dunn tells you, "I hate you."
(Party): You say, "Bad plan coming right up."
And you won't understand the cause of your grief...
...But you'll always follow the voices beneath.
Making a rune pre-etched on the ground be used up on demand or somehow other than the enemy running into it unblind... I dont know, that could be cool and interesting
Keep uprooting in enemy cities the same.
Fuck totems, what a totally tedious endeavour.

(It would also make it nigh impossible to fight a runie as momentum with nairat into impale spam.)

Penwize has cowardly forfeited the challenge to mortal combat issued by Atalkez.
HF is godly. I said it as a bard and still say it now. If you don't think it is, you don't use it right.
That being said, I proposed the hamstring on HF idea before (though still only firing on damage), and the key is duration. My suggestion was a 3-4 second hamstring on a possibly lengthened CD (idr what HF icd is currently). That just gives bard a small benefit against the most extreme slow prep, which is one of its weaker areas, while removing current HF, which is unquestionably OP.
The bards asking for actual room hinder are asking for the greater buff, and that's something bard really can't have in its current state. It would be insane.
Re: healer class. It, frankly, has less to do with people being unwilling to play support than it has to do with the people on the other side hating any sort of healing level that would justify a 0 offense class. It wasn't priests who hated old priest as much as it was afflictors. It just doesn't work very well, balance-wise, to have more support in a class than what other classes already have and when you just give them the level others already have, obviously there's no point in them having less offense.
Disclaimer: IC I oppose both Sea and Sky. Burn in the fires of Righteousness. Or something.

In a world where fully fledged adults are like 100 years old at least, whats the difference between a baby atavian and Numira, really? Just throwing that out there.
Any humanoid sentient race as a loyal is disallowed, except as housing servants
But, uh, yes. That was sarcasm.

Fire Lord should have a way to keep people from curing ablaze.
Passive healing
Passive curing
Passive balance loss (which has a very real potential of stopping kill setups, especially from prep)
Hunger strats can be extremely potent against lots of people
Weapon runes enhancing prep times are amazing
Runeblades have incredibly high pressure, especially with hidden affs in group combat and guaranteed freeze.
Prop can win engagements.
Walls that are unbreakable by the majority of the playerbase.
Fucking raido.
Tumbling into wunjo/nairat on kill attempts
Passive vibe dampening.
Thurisaz (though this can be replicated with meteor arrows. However, Thurisaz is cheaper.)
Probably the two most under-appreciated things I see with many Runewardens are Othala and Hugulaz. Passive shield breaking (and -prismatic barrier breaking-) is really, really good. The fact you can start Othala in one room, then move and have it follow you while still getting all three hits is pretty awesome. In my testing against Proficy, it's ~21% total hp damage passively in one balance. Hugalaz is ~30-35% total hp damage. Othala and Hugalaz combined is ~50-55% total hp damage, occurring while you are actively damaging, as well. They can be stacked and hitting simultaneously due to Othala's delayed wind up. IMO, Thurisaz, Othala, and Hugalaz make Runewarden a damage-strat powerhouse.
That's a LOT of super good stuff in one skillset.
When considering the idea of activating a rune for its effect, just no. Even if you exclude Nairat, you still have Fehu (sleep), Pithakhan (mana damage - consider mana draining runeblades on top of this to pressure focus locks), Isaz (which would be on-demand balance loss), Loshre (anorexia), and Ingaz (paralysis). I believe these runes would, if activated on their own balance, would have zero to minimal impact since all these effects can be achieved better through weaponmastery with Runeblades. Therefore, to make the skill worthwhile, the argument could be made that the rune should be able to be activated with a weaponmastery strike. This gives dwc and snb triple-afflict powers (including paralysis and anorexia - two locking afflitions) on demand.
IMO, Runelore is missing something very important, however: a viable instakill that would serve as an alternative to disembowel. As it stands, it can be next to impossible for an unartefacted Runewarden to kill a decently artefacted target; this is not a situation that should ever occur. Artefacts shouldn't make you unkillable to those without them. They should just make it reasonably more difficult.
