Because it never should have been allowed into the game. You would have thought that something more powerful than a skill that was deemed too powerful would have been obvious. A single playtest would have shown this.

And I guesss since "I am running out of things" I'll go back to working on more important things than posting...

Holy crap! 5 count 5 crushes? I've got the wrong disciplines.

5 count for 5 crush that can be dicharged if you get hit. Powerful, yes. Over powered, alittle. As chris said, make the charge time a 10 count, and I think it would be balacned. It is just like the pikemans 5 vorpals for a 15 count for a level 3 skill. Cool, but easly countered in a 1 on 1 combat. Those skills work well in group tatics, but not in single combat. Just like all charged abilities. Great in group, suck in one on one.

Crush is way sicker than vorpal, you can at least block vorpal, and when you do so if you call damage they take it since they are taking crush. People see these as balanced but in fact crush is leaps and bounds better. How in the world did a 5 count 5 crush get in the rules, alchemist got poison cut down because you guys thought 5 every minute was too much?

For the love of God things slip through the cracks now and then. I already stated it will be looked at and after I do this I get 4 posts that basically say "WTF is wrong with you stupid GM's" It is not appreciated, it isnt even warrented, it just hurts my feelings.

Thanks one and all

Chris

You guys can keep hammering away at this if it makes you feel better, but it's already been stated that the crush is going to be changed, the count will increase whatever. I was not involved with the implementation of the rule but I assume it was based on the myriad of NPC's who have come in with that skill. Of course, we telecast it coming by raising our arms and growling to make it easier to dodge and we cannot assume PCs will play it the same way and so it will be changed in the offseason. I'm sure it will be fine for now because if someone with 5 crush gets one off against another player, it will be the last one that person gets off in all liklihood.

Ah Chris, you beat me by a couple moments--you perhaps got my point across better

Chris, don't take it personally, at least not from me. I in no way am saying "wtf is wrong with you stupid GM's". I did question how it got into game but that is not in the least the same thing. If I meant "wtf is wrong with you stupid GM's" then I would have said "wtf is wrong with you stupid GM's". I don't think that you doubt that. People in authority positions have their decisions questioned sometimes, it may not always be warranted or wanted but that is the nature of the beast, it's gonna happen, and if you take it to heart every time you'll find yourself upset alot of the time. In the end it's a game, we aren't discussing how to handle leaky warheads, or how to end famine, we're talking about a hobby. One that alot of us enjoy and put alot into and care about a great deal but it's still a hobby.

I just didn't know that you could do it and am a postwhore.

I love the discussions, but once a Gm says "Ok we will be looking a it" and then people keep going on and on, and then start asking how the heck did that get into game well it starts to weigh on you a bit sorry if I came off too harsh and thanks for clarifing your intentions

I am sitting here trying my hardest not to find reason to type this. I don't know why. It doesn't make any sense.

I know this. Aside from the fact that this is a public message board, I had no right to post what I did. Even though I do feel that way, it was not appropriate to bring it to light in the form of this message board.

I do not play this game. Inside I do endeavor to make time for FH, and until then I do believe that my opinion should be silenced.

When I lash out at someone, I feel that I am doing more to cause strife and harm the game than anything that I may accuse anyone else of. It is not my place to do so, nor anyone elses. Working together is the key to getting the system tuned to prestine.

Basically I need to keep my drunk ass fingers off the keyboard.

Chris;
You are doing a wonderful job. Let no one tell you differently.

P.S.

Would have attempted to put up "Todd Filters" but I fear I would have vaporized them. Plus they are just buffers for what someone really wants to say...."unfiltered"

Did I miss something? Lenk, did you post something nasty and I missed it? I was cheering you on in terms of your post regarding playing in good faith, was there some undercurrent there that I mistakenly supported?

Now I'm starting to feel retarded...

I always feel retarded
