#Malady idea: Overexertion

If you get more than a set number of buffs going at once (maybe 10?) you receive burnout as a malady or receive an aftermath and all your buffs get wiped out.

#

There needs to be some limits on these buffs, they are getting a bit out of control imo

🤔

#

maybe put some small fatigue drain thing on active buffs?

pure lake
#

the implementation im proposing may be too harsh but the underlying idea is whats important imo

yeah i don't like the "put it on the pile" approach either

pure lake
#

tying buffs to fatigue just makes sense to me, you are working harder so you should tire faster

#

also makes fatigue res a true combat stat

mystic hemlock
#

there you go

#

If this becomes a thing people will hate us

I kinda agree actually. you can absolutely trivialize any difficult encounter by stacking as many buffs as possible

mystic hemlock
#

probably make Vigor an exception tho , for obvious reasons

#

If it were to be implemented, I would want more methods to handle fatigue though.

#

otherwise endgame dungeons would become unbearble for a lot of builds

mystic hemlock
#

could be a subtle thing , like a 0.1/rd something fatigue on any buff active after the 5th

pure lake
#

fatigue res is a very good stat already, this would just shed light on that fact more readily

mystic hemlock
#

endurance training stocks from Leif would rise up

pure lake
#

i could see this giving rise to a true fatigue res build thats centered around buffs

#

that would be so fun

#

dunno about fun, but some way to lower the incentive to stack every active buff under the sun and call it a build would be welcome

#

it would have to be formulaic yeah

mystic hemlock
#

energy costs?

pure lake
#

its important to consider how the ripples would effect everything else and how much work it would take for the devs to rebalance things

#

if its too hard to impose on the existing balance it would be hard to justify

noble kayak
#

there are so many modifiers already it is kind of hard not to have massive implications

noble kayak
pure lake
#

too many buffs and the game starts to break
