Change to Will-o-Wisp

Semantics. That can be done

I like the idea, but it’s still a bit niche(3 was visited by a killer! 3 died!). Maybe it could determine what classes visit the target? Though it would still be better if it was given to Observer instead.

Lol. It could work as a window peek replacement.

I did consider that however making it that would make it TOO good for confirming people ect.

The main issue against it is it’s similarity to gossip.

It could be given to observer instead.

They’re similar in the way that Expert Investigations/Test Faith and flirt are similar. Gossip would be for finding what abilities affect your target, this would be for finding what classes visit your target.

The problem is that ability’s are class specific so if you know what ability the player used then 9 times out of 10 you know what class they are.

Not always. Most killing abilities give the same message. Same with occupation and healers. The new ability would be more for finding what classes are in the game.

Not trying to say it would be useless. Just that we can do better than that

For example the “Check if target player is target class” ability I pitched for sheriff could work here too even without the “non-BD only” limitation.

Maybe the new Will O Wisp can have more charges (4/5) and informs if the target performs an aggressive, defensive or neutral action (attacks, conversion, occupation, swapping and the like are aggressive, protecting (yourself and others), healing and barriering are defensive, other actions are neutral).

This helps the Princess differentiate between Support and Social, as well as Special and Investigative, though not necessarilty between Killer and Offensive (since both are typically aggressive).

That feels just like Flirt

It helps differentiate the class type by comparing it with the action type. Flirt groups Support and Social, for example, who are not going to yield the same results when it comes t aggressive/defensive/neutral. The only Flirt result that this new Will O Wisp doesnt clarify is Killer/Offensive.

Tbh it does but I have a feeling princess’s will tend to out K/O classes more often which may lead to NKs/Invoker/Unseen K/O to die more often

That could work, but I’d still prefer it if it sheriff was given it instead of(or as a rework of) surveillance. The current surveillance is a bit niche and is better than expert investigations in every way.

More BD killer classes should be added then.

Matchmake: (N) (2)
Compare two players and see if they are of the same faction.

Compare two players and see if their class types are the same.

I like the second one. The first one I don’t like because using it with an outed Prince makes it almost as strong an Observer’s peek.

This is basically a buffered version of maid :confused:

More like an inverted maid. And even then ToL doesn’t have a maid to compare it to.

But it does fit thematically with Princess, at least the second ability
