Court Wizard Rework to help the flood

Feedback/Suggestions
#1

Not sure why they wanted individual topics, but here we are. Just a copy paste from my comment on the thread.

An important part to consider when changing CW is that we want to keep him as a scum claim, since those are low, but we also want him to be useful to BD. I also want him to have slight protection to himself. He becomes a very obvious target once outed.

Court Wizard - Blue Dragon Support

No Passive

Day ability - Magic Empowerment: Increase the power of your magic to include yourself, along with your target. (2 uses)

Night ability 1 - Barrier: Protect your target from negative effects like conversion, occupation, and target redirection. Does not prevent death. Can’t target self or King. If the barrier does so anything (no one attempts to occupy or convert the target) feedback is given to the court wizard. (Unlimited)

Night Ability 2 - Magical Doorway: All visits to a single target will be redirected to another target of choice. Does not swap them. Can’t target self or King for either use. (2 uses)

The point of this rework keeps CW as a defensive class, giving him the ability to protect key BD roles, and also an option to protect himself, should he be concerned for conversion. This also is fairly easy to fake, and with Magical Doorway being limited to 2, you can’t spam it forever on Prince. And while it is unique, it requires players to visit your target before you can be “confirmed”.

Sage - Unseen Support

No Passive.

Day Ability - Magical Empowerment: Increase the power of your magic to include yourself, along with your target. (2 uses)
Night Ability 1 - Dark Barrier: Prevents the Assassin from being Occupied or Target changed for the night. (Inifinite Uses)

Night Ability 2 - Dark Doorway: Redirects all targets except the Assassin to another target of choice. Can target King for first choice, can not redirect players to King. This will redirect immune targets as well. (Thanks to firekitten for pointing out it didn’t emulate fire wall enough) (2 uses)

These changes get rid of Tornado as a whole and lets Sage be better at pretending to be his BD counterpart. This also protects the assassin from Drunks and Butlers who could potentially find him out. Dark Doorway also emulates what Firewall already does, but makes it slightly better.

Tornado is aweesome

#3

While I agree, most players do not, and see tornado as a trolling tool. I aim to make a tornado like ability, but have its uses more bd favoring while limiting it to 2 uses so it isn’t spamable.

#4

I’ve suggested an ability like Magic Doorway once.

I personally think it’s a good and more usable power

#5

Was a ritualist

Knight was going to CS me

I redirected back into himself

Won the game cuz that

Tornado needs to stay

#6

This is about court wizard, not ritualist.

#7

Tornado needs to stay

About courtwizard…

#8

Alright did you even read the change? This is literally a better version of tornado.

Lets even look at your scenario. If you use the day ability to protect yourself, and also use it on your assassin, you can protect two unseen at once. Then if a knight attacks either of you, he gets sent to some random bd. And does the exact same thing as you claimed in your anecdote.

#9

I meant I was talking about tornado for the court wizard using a example of ritualist

I didn’t say it was better

Defending my story

#10

No you’re whining that tornado is gone from court wizard, yet in this change it’s literally a better version of tornado that actually has application. You need to quit focusing on every tiny think you hate. There are a lot of good idea on other posts as well you’re just ignoring because they do one thing wrong.

#11

May I edit this to what I meant to say

Tornado needing to stay

Is about court wizard

#12

Btw is court wizard unique in this? Cause it said something about being unique and I don’t know if you meant the ability or the class

#13

The unique comment was about the ability Magical Doorway. This court wizard will not be unique.

Basically: there can be two.

#14

Does redirection bypass immunity

#15

It’s redirection like normal, so no.

#16

You traded WOF arguably the most effective way to take out a prince , because not even the king can guard the prince with WOF, with a redirection that doesn’t bypass king guard and Assasin gets Occupy Redirection immunity

#17

Does happy hour go through the barrier?

#18

I actually haven’t thought of that. My original idea was dark doorway simulated wall of fire, but you’re correct that currently it wouldn’t stop king guards. I think making the sages break re direction would be better, however adding that to bd cw would not be good.

Happy hour would go through since it always goes through all immunities.

#19

That’s why I asked if it breaked redirection immunity, though people may then figure out it is a sage so maybe silently breaks redirection immunity since it is a 2 use.

#20

They’ll know there is a sage, but not necessarily who it is. Currently we can figure out sage anyway by any player visiting the fire walled target, so I don’t think it’s that bad.
