#241, "New General Edge: Delay Analyst"


          

This edge would add a tag at the end of each combat round showing how many rounds they are going to be lagged.

Example:

murder zulg
Zulg yells 'Help! Mek is attacking me!'
Your punch mauls Zulg.
Your punch decimates Zulg!
(1)

(100%hp 100%m 100%mv)
Your punch MUTILATES Zulg!
Zulg's cleave DISMEMBERS you!
You dodge Zulg's cleave.
Zulg parries your punch.
(0)

(100%hp 100%m 100%mv)bash
(0)

(100%hp 100%m 100%mv)
You slam into Zulg and send him flying!
Your bash grazes Zulg.
(2)


I think this edge would be A) Very useful for any player, and B) Extremely educational for new players.

We're not going to tell you how much you're lagged, period.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Healers
Shield paladins
Defense shifters

Maybe an added bonus to that lag-reducing legacy?
