Have you guys thought of making felar aps more viable?

APs have a crapload of skill that are in constant flux. Dual wielding two different weapons and using them in combinations is a huge huge perk to APs. Even if felars wield a one handed weapon, they can't crippling strike/faceslash at the same time.

My idea - give AP a hand based skill. It would correspond well with the dual wield change lately.

Thoughts?

....that a felar AP with uber charges is probably the strongest AP because of gear, pure offense and easily covered vunerabilites. Granted getting those charges is the hardest as well.

If anything I say they should get Spine or some felar-only AP edges that aren't too strong. Being able to faceslash with your hands would be neat, since you could use a spear/polearm and do that.

Or get something that keeps them from losing their spear to a binder thief.

....or at least, you can always get a gear piece to cover that vulnerability ;)

But you still won't wield the weapon and will be quite defenseless to the following gank.

Least I thought it was purely an int-based edge.

I think that might have been changed already from the binder side. I can't remember exactly, but I think as Kasir I landed bind-hands on some folks wielding polearms/spears/etc. and they didn't drop the weapon.

If I remember correctly it was truss that did it, not bind hands. My game knowledge isn't what it used to be, so I could be mistaken.

Bindhands drops your offhand and sleeping disarm removes your main hand. However, I'm not completely sure how a weapon that requires two hands is affected.

That's what I'm saying. I don't think it drops spears/staffs/polearms. Unless my memory is just spotty.

In the same way that arials make use of the edge that let's them use spears better.

Make some felar_only edges for AP's. I don't ever recall there being an uber powerhouse felar anyway.

And it certainly won't be me. But it sounds cool.

Never played one, but both from my experiences and when comparing them to other races, felar AP's seem quite sucky.

No need for a new skill, just tweak it for the race.
