Report #134
Skillset: Night Skill: Cauldron-Gather
 Org: Shadowdancers Status: Completed Feb 2009
Furies' Decision:
Approved.
Problem: Currently requiring a cauldron to be dropped upon the ground within a
room before collecting a shadow is little more than a hassle, especially with
the parallel of needing the cauldron dropped before releasing a shadow having
been removed.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #1: Allow for a shadow to be collected from a room and
 into your cauldron without requiring you to drop it
 and letting it remain within your inventory.

Yes, please. Not really unbalancing at all (since Night users just put a flame
sigil on their cauldron so it can't be nabbed), but a nice convenience change.

Sounds good

Sure

I've no problems with this proposition.

I am not against this, but it was my understanding that you had to drop the
cauldron so that forgetfull people (those that didn't use a flame sigil) could
be stopped by someone grabbing up their cauldron. If so, there needs to be some
other way to hinder them releasing shadows.

Gregori, this is cauldron gather, NOT cauldron release. Two different things.
Cauldron gathering is just when you're walking around at night gathering up
shadows in your cauldron. It's rarely done in any kind of combat situation,
it's almost always pre-preparing.

Furthermore, cauldron release can already be done without dropping the cauldron.

This seems like a reasonable change. Simplifying always makes things easier on
newbies, too
