Rework to Sheriff's Scout

Feedback/Suggestions
#1

Scout (day) - Target a player other than yourself and the king. You’ll be alerted if a member of the unseen visit your target tonight. Mastermind visits aren’t noticed until night 4. (Infinite)

Reasoning: I’ve found scout to be a rather boring ability. Not only is it so hot and cold with what it does, it’s also on sheriff. I’ve had plenty of games where MM only gets a single convert off all game, and scout is rendered useless.

With the new scout, it makes sharing logs more important and gives scout a real use other than auto detect that someone is converted. It also doesn’t function as an auto “oh you’re converted” strat since mm doesn’t show up visiting until n4. By then he should have a full roster and his checks can be miss interpreted as converts.

My only real concern is this might give scout too much utility, as if mm keeps his logs with correct visits, he’ll get found out by the scout.

This isn’t a rework.

It’s a nerfwork

6 was visited by Unseen! 6 is dead
Next night:
7 was visited by Unseen! Also dead.

So a nerfwork?

Exactally.

Doesn’t unseen have the lowest win rate out of the main factions? It might be a nerf, but it has more utility. I understand the fear of “X was visited by unseen! X is dead!” But it isn’t as centralizing as scout is. You can’t fool the scout. It basically works like a magic barrier, without the actual protection affect and putting mm’s convert on cool down.

Your justifying ur answer by saying it’s a nerf cause they have low win rate, when in the OP you said it would be more useful

#8

Actually cult and unseen are evenly matched and not UP.

Interesting. Fair enough.

Also I would like to add

A fake unseen butler claims he is occupying 7. Scout 7. Visited by unseen and not killed?? Okay so he is a confirmed “servant”

Which makes it in a way pretty swingy as it could be OP or UP

I’m using your logic here. I think it’s more of a side grade, because it has more potential to see more unseen activities, vs current scout which literally only checks converts.

#12

Your basically making the converts trash

#13

You mean like current scout already does?

#14

Not really…

#17

How does it not? Current scout gets them as they’re converted and the mm now has to wait two nights for a new convert.
