Report #1554
Skillset: Nekotai Skill: Nektree
 Org: Nekotai Status: Completed Nov 2016
Furies' Decision:
Solution 3.
Problem: This is not a problem per se, but a utility upgrade suggestion
requested via the forums. Nektree currently gives the nekotai access to climbing
trees as well as movement resistance in forest areas. However, newbies using
this to RP in the trees sometimes find themselves falling out of trees because
of wind. There is strictly no need to upgrade Nektree as there is the clinging
ability in environment, but I believe that this is a worthwhile change to
consider to make things easier for newbies, because clinging is so high up in
environment.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #1: Allow a Nektree user to gain access to the clinging
 ability.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #2: If the above is considered too unfair to give a high
 environment ability to nekotai midbies/lowbies, then
 consider this instead: for users with Nektree, let
 there be a 75% chance of resisting being blown out of
 trees by wind, and only wind (doesn't prevent
 shaking, hexagrams, highjumps etc) when a Nekotai
 with the ability is sitting in the trees and gets hit
 by a wind tick. Use the same movement resist message
 (you dig your claws into the trunks etc etc) when
 this happens.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #3: Same as solution 2, only 100% chance of avoiding wind
 blowing user out of trees. As per Aeldra's suggestion

Solution 1

I would support either solution. However, I would like to suggest a third
solution, to provide simply immunity to wind movement in the trees for nekotai
user. (no need for the 75%)

Solution 2 preferred, from a thematic point of view.

Cool, this is fine

Ok

Solution 3: Let Shofangi novices climb trees. :P I like solution 2 the best and
I feel that it should be immunity to wind as Aeldra suggested.

Solution 2 or 3 preferred.

Oops. I jokingly commented before when there wasn't a solution 3. I non-jokingly
support Solution 3.

Any of the above. Makes sense that nekotai, who are able to dig their nekai
into trees to stay still, should be able to do it in trees too.
