#826, "Sleep stacking"


          

As Ledauna my two losses to pks both involved sleep stacking. The first came when Yanacek blackjacked me and then while I slept knockout poisoned me. I'm not sure, but Morchata may have cold be slept me as well (trying to sleep my pets). Combined, this was enough to ensure that both of my key supplications (armor of thorns and fly) had fallen. The second came when Navarro blackjacked me and then Morchata cold be slept me. In this situation the bard was probably trying to sleep my pets, but even still I was affected as well.

Doesn't this seem a little like overkill?

Fear the H2H warrior, poison-thief, bard combination. They could probably put you to sleep and then watch you age die.

Maybe i'm right, maybe i'm wrong. But i seem to remember something along the lines that when the first knockout wears off (ie: if it's blackjack) You can wake up, but if you go back to sleep, you won't be waking up anytime soon.(Because of bard sleep)

I guess what i'm trying to say, is i don't think it stacks and you got a little spooked by your affects list.

Now as to your poison thief thing, i have no idea about that one.

Cheers.
Jhyrb.

Zhekril pebbled me before blackjack wore off so I don't know if I could have woken up even with cold be sleep in my affects list.

I'm 100% positive that I couldn't wake up in the Yanacek incident though. I tried a few times after bj wore off to no avail.

And here is the log, for some reason the knock-out poison remains even after the slept affect of blacjack wears off.

You are affected by:

Skill: 'heightened awareness' for 14 hours.
Skill: 'mind control poison' for 11 hours.
Skill: 'endure' modifies armor class by -38 for 5 hours.
Skill: 'endure' modifies save vs spell by -19 for 5 hours.
Skill: 'knock-out poison' for 4 hours.
Skill: 'blackjack' for 1 hours.

You tell your group 'wake me'

<566/566hp 594/594m 511mv 9159tnl> 10 PM civilized gt I am knocked out
You tell your group 'I am knocked out'


Anyways, I don't believe it should be stackable, for obvious balance reasons.

Seemed a bit of a long time to be knocked out by a thief. With a rager scout a poison thief could conceivably wait out quite a few preps and even shieldings if done right.
