I was going to hazard a guess at 'Raksha Bands being changed', actually. This isn't in their defense, but I know that their high cost makes any changes of them a very volatile subject.

I'm not sold on the idea of sect champions being 'always no, always 150% no'. You never really bring up anything besides 'one v one is terrible'. You have no invested interest in it, that's fine. I do. Others do. I even make the compromise of a smal…

I know this is going to sound sort of skipping-recordish.. but if you go through with any sect conflict system, can we maybe beta it briefly to work out the kinks? Then we can stress test it and see what does and doesn't work, so to speak.

I'm fine with that outcome because we already have an all inclusive combat system: shardfalls. Why shouldn't we have one that has some level if exclusivity too? This is the perfect, low key place to include somet…Hey Jeremy,
Any thought to the part about assassin classes like Predator and Assassin having an innate resilience to this system? I was rather attached to the idea when Ahkan presented it.
