Nerf 'of purging' ego

#1 Post by bricks »

The 'of purging' weapon ego is extremely powerful against any player character with magical sustained skills, to the point where it is probably the most effective sustain-remover in the game. A higher minimum level would be helpful, as would removing its ability to deactivate sustained abilities or at least introducing some sort of dispel-immunity or saves check. Also, a clear warning message on deactivated sustains would be a great improvement to the interface.
Sorry about all the parentheses (sometimes I like to clarify things).

They're already relatively rare. I don't know that the minimum level needs to be bumped up too.

A saving throw and a clear combat message (possibly a flyer too) would be good though. I'll look at adding it.
