Report #357
Skillset: Tarot Skill: Dreamer
 Org: Cacophony Status: Rejected Jun 2010
Furies' Decision:
We do not find this to be necessary.
Problem: As it stands, this is really just an inferior version of minorsixth and
it's sole purpose was to help bards. This idea will make it somewhat helpful in
the right situation, but as long as the burst is kept small, it won't be too
powerful.
Solution #1: Change the skill to require rubs with a maximum of three. The
 drain when flung can be adjusted accordingly.

Any numerical comparisons between Dreamer and Minorsixth available?

Dreamer in testing was draining me close to avg of 275 mana and ego per tick,
once flung it ticks 3 times, the first tick occuring I believe was 5 seconds
after fling. I wasn't testing at the time for timestamps, but recall me having
sip balances back before the next tick. So yeah, Dreamer is pretty low. I assume
the buildup of rubs, at 3 max, would make the ticks equal to that of minor?

Is the effect stackable? If it is, then I suppose over time, it would end up
pretty similar after a few flings. Also should remember that Guardians would
also get this, and if the mana drain part of it is boosted overly much and the
ticks put together with quickened amissio, it might be a bit too much.
