> I agree that Role is a feather in CF's cap, but my favorite recent change was the Amazing Shrinking Nightgaunt, as I was getting quite tired of being literally slapped around. (Looking at them, why do they "slap" their targets anyway?) =)

> Worst change is hard to think of... most of the recent ones have been improvements in my mind. One that sticks out as being merely average is the Master revamp. I like what they did with transform, and Tome is one of the best-suited cabal powers, but the loss of brew didn't sit as well with me for one reason or another. Brew was nifty, not exactly overpowering, and well in theme for the cabal. If anything should have been toned down, it's Scourge, the Swiss Army Knife of Offense. The Masters deserve some nifty stuff, as the interview process can be tough, and non-aggression is limiting in many ways, but Scourge just doesn't require too much thought to use. Speaking of which...

> Worst change -not- made remains air majors. Far too many of them end up as "Deathfull" mass killers, and they make outdoor exploration and re-equipping nearly impossible once you have a few in your range. Yes, they are beatable, but if they catch you at a bad moment, it's game over. And they're very good at knowing when that bad moment is. The bigger problem is that if they attack, and things go badly, they can often fly away, which means you will often have no hope of finding them. Air Majors don't need anything radical, but a little downward tweak might be appropriate when less skilled people like Severyns can become mass killers.

> > I think mine would be the Role command. I always wanted to put my role in my desc. or just have hints of it. Now i can just have a real desc and also have my role displayed for the imms. That was good thinking on their part. But the new hiding rules are a bitch.
