DV Escape Tech Nerf

Seems fair enough. Talisantia 07:52, 6 February 2007 (EST)
Sounds good to me, too. The current state of DV Escape Techs is a bit too in favor of the DVs. Lampdevil 10:51, 6 February 2007 (EST)
- Well, that's a bit of a surprise. Everyone who's commented so far is in accord with the change. I expected to have a few more opposing voices. Hroefn T 15:05, 16 February 2007 (EST)
- Maybe we should actually inform the folks that are DVs? :D Lampdevil 15:09, 16 February 2007 (EST)
Seems fair enough to me, though I've only played my DV once. So I can't really complain either way. Landra
- (thumbs up) As a DVer, it sounds good. It works better to keep things a bit more even, I think. --Vraeyda 19:41, 20 February 2007 (EST)
I'm probably the only one complaining then. :D Mostly because this will more or less just incite people with declared villains to fight with people who they know they will win against, though there is also self-interest involved here in that it greatly limits my own DV's escape technique naturally. It almost completely negates the anti-escape tech as well, if you simply smack a villain before he or she can escape. I mean, if a character really wants to stop a villain from getting the hell out of a fight then get the anti-escape tech and do it. ur mom lawlz
Which is more annoying though, people only going into DV's they can win or DV's letting people three times their PL in to rape them for gains because they no they have a no-fail route to escape? I'm personally for a nerf, because I'm getting sick of it being pointless to go into a DV event because the DV always accomplishes his/her goal and always escapes. One particularly irritating encounter involved one of my characters striking a DV for twice his durability at twice the speed he could see, and the attack was disregarded entirely with "lol I escape now." It wasn't even mentioned in the DV's post. If squaring things up just means villains will have to be a bit smarter about how they do things, so be it. Snackycakes
