57565, Suggestion regarding 'spin the wheel' and 'roll the bones'
Posted by DurNominator on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
I suggest that shifters that haven't picked any egdes are allowed to choose edges 'spin the wheel' and 'roll the bones' even if they can't afford the cost at the moment. The shifter would just get negative edge points if he doesn't have enough, and thus pay the price afterwards as he accumulates edge ponts.
The reason I suggest this is that the shifter is essentially gimped if they can't afford the cost at the time of getting the form, due to the requirement of not using the form in order to reroll the form with the edge.

Unless you are a Shapeshifter who is seriously powerleveling, you ought to be able to take one of these two edges very soon after getting your unwanted form. You may have to abstain from using it for those last few levels, but tough.
I'll also tell you that the average character between levels 41-51 has earned enough edge points to take both of those edges, which means even the below average character is doing just fine.
Like Daevryn said, we really aren't concerned if folks aren't able to swap both forms as conveniently as they might like, but again, tough.

"Powerlevel and see what forms you get" is already a very popular shifter behavior. I don't see us encouraging that even more.

57571, Please give a second 30's tier form for major shapefocus

In the 35-37 range. It'll make them more diverse and options in 30's pk. Also, if you want more lowbie shifters utilizing forms... the lag and mana intensity(along with unable to shift into form to form) in early 20's hurts a lot.
I think you should move shapeshift skill to 20. The burden at these ranks is that you have to fight without enlivens if you are alternating as is.. which I think is fair.

57575, Funnily enough

I would almost go the other way and say hit 200 hrs before you get the edges. But also make them cheap.

57608, Yeah, doesn't make a lot of sense to rush to the point a character is fun to play. nt

57566, Sorry, you are moving in the wrong direction with this suggestion. Please stop trying to make the game fun. Edges were not meant to be accessible. n/t

57568, Who would spend their precious edgepoints on spin the wheel anyway?

You're denying yourself other edges compared to a shifter who liked the form he got right away.
