Gift of Kings

#1 Post by Grey »

Firstly, I'd suggest a name change to suit the new setting better - perhaps "Gift of Nobility"?

Second, I think it's a little marginalised by the infusions now. Consider the lesser humans who can use their category point for a whole extra regen infusion instead. Perhaps the Higher power should cure some statuses as well? Or perhaps give a little damage resistance. That would put it on a more even footing with the infusions.

I think it's probably fine. Mushroom and I discussed this last night and one extra category point doesn't really equal a whole infusion slot unless you're starving for slots.

Remember a character gets four (five for cornac) slots over the course of his or here career and most people aren't going to want to unlock more then two new categories anyway. So really the difference isn't inscription slot vs. X racial talent but inscription slot vs. .1 mastery in a talent category.
