Report 734

Report #734
Skillset: Skill: None
 Org: Shadowdancers Status: Rejected Nov 2011
Furies' Decision:
What mobs exist and what poisons mobs may or may not have is not a reasonable
suggestion for envoys to make. Further, an amount of risk to get certain herbs
or poisons (or an inherent RP advantage for certain guilds) is not necessarily
considered imbalancing, such as is this case here. Therefore, this report is
rejected.
Problem: Senso is an important poison which can currently be found only upon
the Earth Plane, which is enemy territory (and can be Nexus Distorted). In the
past, poisons within the Glomdoring commune which were deemed necessary were
also added in neutral territory so that others could get access to them. The
same should be done with Senso
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #1: There are diseased and slimy toads and newts in
 Tolborolla. Senso could be added to them
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #2: The creation of a new mob type in Balach which
 contains senso

I like the idea of attaching it to the toads and / or newts in Tolborolla
because there are not a lot of them, so it is still a good idea to go to Earth
for long-term and plentiful harvesting, but it does provide an alternative
outside of enemy territory that can be distorted and locked down.

I think putting them in the Catacombs would be a good idea, since I -think- one
of the denizens already afflicts with senso. Garghasts, maybe?

If this change is implemented, then I would hope that a similar one is for
dreamleeches/morphite as well. Right now it feels like those planar ties are
deeply ingrained in the crafting system and explained through the lore (certain
herbs only grow on the elemental planes, as well), but if the administration is
willing to oversee a greater shift towards equality in access in all aspects of
the system, then I would support this change.

While we are at this discussion, Crotamine can only be located on the Earth
Plane as well. Both Senso and Crotamine are essential requirements for the
Nekotai insta FinalSting. Yes, I see a great need for this report and fully
support Solution 1.

Hmm, how about the sleepfish in the Carai Caroo for morphite?
