#3019, "RE: Because:"
Edited on Wed 19-Nov-03 10:16 PM

          

I agree completely. To me, if any spell can be used *against* the target it should be a trust-only spell. Word of recall is trustonly, namely because otherwise people could use it as an inter-thera summon by wording people to huge gangbangs...similarly, if you're going to use something agressively the game should account for this by allowing a save vs spell. If I know the last thing I want the guy to do to me is cast flight on me I'm going to try my best to resist that. Its similar to using haste staves on impaled people to get demo damage on them...I just don't like the idea of it. Its an underrepresented tactic but that doesn't mean it isn't abusable. Likewise, they said you can save against pwk'ing yourself but I sure as hell never have, even with divine saves against those level 1 pwk rejuv berries in the holy grove, I don't like the idea of being forced to quaff something my character *KNOWS* (from watching other people die to it) has a moderate chance of outright slaying you. Granted you can drop it and etc, but what if you're laggy? Then you get like a 50/50 chance of dropping dead? I just don't like it, no kill should be that easy.
