Report #1499
Skillset: Druidry Skill: Totem
 Org: Blacktalon Status: Completed Feb 2017
Furies' Decision:
Solution 1
Problem: It is my understanding that Blacklung will be removed as per the Combat
Overhaul, which is the special trait for the Blacktalon Totem beast Crow. As it
is being removed, it needs to be replaced with something else.
[A:18 R: 0] Solution #1: Blacklung ability/affliction becomes a Poison Damage
 attack with chance of Dysentery affliction
[A: 4 R: 5] Solution #2: Blacklung ability/affliction becomes a Poison Damage
 attack with chance of Scabies affliction with a
 resistance to scabies being passed on from victims
 while wearing a crow cloak
[A: 0 R: 9] Solution #3: Blacklung attack becomes Wing Slap, an attack of
 blunt damage with the chance that it either knocks
 target off balance for 0.5 seconds or breaks limbs
 (up for discussion)

Solutions 1/2 are more powerful than solution 3. That said, any solution is
fine.

Dysentery could fulfill much the same purpose (eq insead of balance), but avoid
the issues with scabies spread.

Thanks for the comments guys, I'd like to keep with the Disease theme present in
crow for this. I didn't even think about Dysentry before.

Dysentery is probably alright. Knocking off eq is more powerful, particularly
with sources of freezing and confusion, which Blacktalon can do to greater or
lesser degrees. Otherwise Solution 2.

Solution 1 sounds good to me. Solution 2 would be alright too, but I don't think
crow cloak should get a general scabies protection and am unsure how hard a
special case scabies would be to implement. Solution 3 is also alright,
preference to #1 though.

Prefer solution 1.
