Do you mean to make the night ability 1 on Spy a passive or no it is a choice between follow and spy?
Also night ability 1 on the Mystic should be a day ability.

#3

1: You choose it is not a passive.

  1. It works like the old noble. This way you can use this and the day ability but you can’t use mind warp if you do. I am not trying to clone illusionist completely here.
#4

Ahhh ok the wording just sounds like its a useless ability as you can only whisper during the day and this says

This just makes it sound to me at least that you would have hidden whispers until the end of th night.
Thanks for clearing it up!

#5

I cleared it up. I also changed mind read to the marshals snoop with more uses.

#6

I added something for the converted noble. Depending on what they do with him later I might change it.

#7

Does anyone have any suggestions? Feedback? Things I missed? Ect?

#8

I just realized that kinda like the cult sacrafice the Trainers retrain means that the faction members have a short lifespan. As a result I lowered all the classes with unlimited use ability’s down to 5-8 nights of use. I would do 4 or less like the cult but the Trainer is not replaceable without the Flag bearer.

#9

This is my first response to a faction suggestion so, sorry if it sucks! I think this will be really long. Hope you have the patience for this.

  1. Vive la Resistance!! Please make it green!

  2. I’m not really fond of the leader being called “The Trainer”. It kinda sounds less powerful than I think it should.

  3. Can you explain to me how Retrain is really supposed to work? The way I understood it is that you choose a Resistance member an someone who isn’t Resistance. The Resistance member dies and the other take his place as Resistance. If this is how it works, I like it! Also train not losing a use after failing is awesome.

  4. I say let the Activist be killable. I would strongly recommend it even. Does Rampage kill your visitors or the targets visitors? I believe it’s the target’s.

  5. Regarding the Planner, why not just Tornado on night ability 1? No problem with Zeal.

  6. Saboteur? Occupy immunity is ok. I think you meant Sabotage as well and it sounds good to me. Also Mislead only has one s. Both of the night abilities effects already exist. I’d use the existing ones instead, since they share the same effect you intend here.

  7. Kamikaze*. I think regardless of Expendable, the Trainer should always get another use of train if a Resistance member dies from other means than Retrain. I like his night abiities.

  8. Informant*, missing an n there. Nothing to add to this class, simple and nice. The same applies to Mystic, I’d just have less uses of Mind read and use Marshall’s existing ability instead.

  9. Medic has a cool passive. Heal should be infinite. Escort should give occupy immunity and nothing else. Removing should not be the job of a suppot class.

  10. Flagbearer’s passives are what they need to be. I believe there is already an ability such as his day ability. I know the last part is different, but I still suggest sticking to the existing ones.Petition would kinda give the Flagbearer away on the next vote.Dedication should be a passive.

  11. Scout and Informant are basically the same. I’d make spy become Informant and get rid of scout.

  12. As for the Spy, I like Forestall but maybe it should also work for Train, making Trainer unable to convert at all. Tag is too powerful, it should be replaced with something else. Scan is okay. Make it so the Spy can discover the faction of a target instead of Tag.

  13. No idea what KPN is.

Now regarding what has been told after the post…

  1. In my opinion Private Matter can be either a night ability or a day. I don’t mind either option, it’s your choice.

That’s it for my feedback! See you around!!

KPN stands for Kills per night btw.

Rampage does in fact kill the targets visitors.

All of the naming things are because of either flavor or the different number of uses.

Power play does not work quite like any of the existing equivalents as it can force a king’s double vote. Dedication is a night ability so that it would take a night to use instead of happening immediately.

Medic removing occupy immunity is totally the job of the support. Its not like you are using it on the other resistance members if they are occ immune

The Scout is there to reward converting the spy rather than killing him. Also the things the scout finds are different or more powerful (depending on ability) than the informant.

As for the Spy… Your Forestall suggestion is fine but I’m not sure you get why Spy isn’t anything like Sheriff or Paladin. Unlike with the Unseen or Cult the Resistance has a strictly limited number of members. If you could easily point at someone and say if they are a Resistance member it wouldn’t work. I should however probably say that he doesn’t see the trainer’s visits.

#11

The problem with that skill is not the ability to remove an occupy but the fact that it both removes and adds. I think that makes it more powerful than it should be. That’s why I suggested focusing on the most supportive part.

I see. That makes sense.

The Unseen is also limited to 3 members. I would prefer if it didn’t show the trainer, yeah. I’d use my Forestall suggestion though.

#12

nonono. The Unseen has a MAX of 3 members AT A TIME!. The Resistance has a max of 4 members TOTAL! As in no regenerating members if one dies.

Btw I made the activists night immunity like the inquisitor’s. It only works once

#13

Ooooooh! NOW I GET IT!!

I like that change! :slight_smile:
