> Saying dopple comes close to being a pure pk power is retarded. Dopple also has some fantastic roleplaying value, and not to mention is great for trickster pranks with people who are trying to communicate with the target. What you are speaking of is a parochial way of using dopple. With wall of thorns and insect swarm though, it is only used for pk combat. True, there is the RP aspect of it. Not much benefit from a mob-fighting point of view, though, much like insect and wall of thorns. That's all I meant. If someone were going to play a PK character and had to pick a cabal, and were tired of Sylvan, they could still get a lot of PK "use" out of the Entropy powers. Guess its obvious now, but I've never played a Baron. My assumption was that gibberish would prevent spell-casting, but evidently that's not true.
> The power is GIBBERISH. And if you're hoping that gibberish is keeping those mages from wording, have fun watching as they recall.
