but like who uses that

#

(If ppl need to have it back we can just like, add it back)

#

:P

#

I think maybe

#

put it to a poll

fossil ledge
#

could work

#

I predict it would be a rarely used technique, but like theoretically if you know TI will be at your house, you would just channel that day

inner horizon
#

the one thing I feel is that the Channel DI would rarely be used tbh

#

in practice

#

I hope not, but like

#

maybe?

fossil ledge
#

I mean

inner horizon
#

at least you Channel p often imo

#

maybe it would be useful

#

So I think in the most balanced case there's Coven and the Jackal running around, sometimes you just need to lay low, especially if there's multiple seers. I'm chillin.

#

Hidden Werewolf where you just let them kill each other and eat the table scraps is a viable strategy.

#

Not the only one, but decent to keep them off balance

inner horizon
#

yeah, makes sense

#

so from what I understand this overhaul makes the WW a side-grade to the SK?

#

both of them have basic attack & defense, as well as maul RBers/jailor if someone ever jails/roleblocks them

#

the only difference between SK and WW in this overhaul is that WW can on-demand self-illusion + bloodlust for the next night but cannot stop themselves from killing RBers/jail while SK relies solely on momentum to gain bloodlust but is capable of being roleblocked/jailed without killing them by acting cautious

#

actually at that point it's not even a side-grade this is a straight SK upgrade

#

the main issue i have with this is that it just makes SK straight-up inferior

leaden rampart
#

you are aware of the planned SK rework right

#

I do not actively follow news & updates and I only argue with knowledge that I currently possess in the present without the knowledge of guaranteed future changes

#

Hm

#

I like the control aspect, but in alot of cases couldn't this arguably be a nerf?

leaden rampart
#

it's a nerf late game

#

which is not a bad thing

severe karma
#

most nk's (Shroud primarily) feels nerfed in late game

#

I like what this rework goes for but I think without the scent tracking aswell you lose what little info you already have

#

and in alot of cases like lategame, this ends up worse than current WW

#

Ima give my thumbs down, but I like what this is attempting

#

nah i just wont vote

leaden rampart
#

I had an idea that was this but you could toggle between being WW and a random ti minus coroner (ui issues)

tawdry valve
#

could be a day ability for tracking

#

tbh

#

like you pick a player at day

#

start of night they have live tracking

#

and the channel can be turned into passive

Imo Tracking is doable, this is technically a overall nerf in the sense that it has less constant rampages late game, as you mentioned
this is mostly a result of things brought up in #1289713020385099808 when we discussed werewolf, and the majority of opinion was that tracking was... not helpful much (I quote, "unactionable info") other than maybe faking tracker, which is also really scummy if people know it's a werewolf game
I personally think either way works, I'm down to just like
put it up to a poll and see what happens

Poll to add V2 below: #1292651087190294589 message

#

i think its useful so werewolf can get actual utility

#

theres no harm in it

#

if a ww is constantly claiming tracker anyways thats kinda their fault

inner horizon
#

fairs

tawdry valve
#

werewolf with live tracking would certainly help get rampage value

inner horizon
#

well, how would that work

#

I'm thinking on how to add tracking into this if it gets passed

tawdry valve
#

during the day

#

you pick a player

#

you get live tracking of them permanently

#

when night starts

tawdry valve
#

channel becomes either a passive ability

#

or part of the main one

#

and its again

#

targeting yourself or taking no action at night

#

will channel your powers

#

and grant yourself DI

inner horizon
#

we have rampage at home now tho, so targeting self won't be an option

#

probs

tawdry valve
#

add a clause

#

if you attempt to target yourself while channeled, you instead Rampage at home

inner horizon
#

let me reword this to try to see what this would sound like

tawdry valve
#

;(

inner horizon
#

no, mostly for my own sake

#

Werewolf

Neutral (Killing)
Attack: Basic
Defense: Basic

Goal: Kill everyone in the town.

Maul (ā™¾ļø, šŸŒ™)
Select a player to Maul.

  • You will deal a Basic Attack to your target.
  • If you Channeled last night, you will Maul your target and their visitors, dealing a Powerful Attack to them. Selecting yourself will cause you to Rampage at home, Mauling any visitors.
  • Failing to kill at least 2 players while Channeled will keep your Channeled status.

Channel (ā™¾ļø, šŸŒ™)
Channel the moonlight to gather your powers.

  • Select yourself with Maul while not Channeled or do not choose a target to Maul to passively activate this ability.
  • You will appear to be town-aligned to any investigative results.

Scent (ā™¾ļø, ā˜€ļø)
Gain the Scent of a player to track at night.

  • Choose a player to Scent during the night.
  • You will receive your target's choices as they change, if any.

Attributes

  • You are immune to Roleblock. If Roleblocked or Jailed, you will Maul the RBer/Jailor and wipe their will.
  • You will show as Innocent to Sheriff.
#

@tawdry valve this?

tawdry valve
#

something like that yeah

inner horizon
#

makes sense

tawdry valve
#

add a clause saying failing to select a target properly will also passively channel yourself

#

if possible

inner horizon
#

as in just not attacking?

#

sure

#

done

#

this should be V2

proper cypress
#

on non full moon nights

inner horizon
#

bc like

#

only ww uses it

#

and this ww doesn't have it

#

lol

proper cypress
#

Curt’s right though ww is only good because of scent

#

And this is just a nerf to an nk without it

inner horizon
#

considering powerful rampage every night

#

imo

#

but tracking is a big "why not"

#

so

#

:P

proper cypress
#

Ww past n4 has too much stacked against it for it to not because it’s weak early game

#

And this doesn’t entirely solve it

inner horizon
#

definitely could use some fixes for sure, I might make it so that failing to kill at all period lets you channel

#

as a V2

proper cypress
#

I just think it should have scent and that’s all it needs to be balanced

inner horizon
#

personally looking back at it this could use a slight buff

proper cypress
#

Modern ww would be fine if it just had basic attack odd night along with scent and in exchange remove perma full moon past n4

#

But obviously that just makes long games take longer and short games be shorter

V2: Live Tracking

  • Added Hunt, enabling you to lively track a player
  • Improved Channel to trigger passively if you fail to kill with Maul
