19457, shifter forms and assassins
Posted by snowlauncher on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Im just curious why assassins cant do kot/kans on certain shifter forms that do have limbs. I mean, i understand if you cant do it on a cobra, cause it doesn't have limbs at all, but a wildcat has both discernible paws and arms, so you can technically grab them. I mean, you can do it to orangutans and hell, you can even kans dragons, but not certain shifter forms?

Arms on a wildcat. Right.

It's going to be hard and unfair that you can kot/kans a form with limbs but not a snake. And also game balance, and coding wise, I think the Imms decided to remove all kot/hans on shifter forms. I may be wrong here, haven't played an assassin for the longest time.

PS. you can do it on an orangutan?
19459, Im pretty sure the last time I fought an orangutan I kot/kansed it nt.

19460, Now that shapeshifters can gear for stats, they will likely suffer the consequences.

One advantage of being a snake form would be you don't have limbs to wrench.

the monkeys can already get their elbows busted, just not the lions and tigers and oh my! :D. Anyways, like Quixotic said, I can see why it would be game balancy when shifters cant gear for stats but they can now.

The unifying feature about shifter forms that are marked as having arms is that they can stand upright.
