The Black Numenorean Custom Class

[Nine Inch Nail]

I need some more info or verification of the above mentioned class. My current character is at the third level of this custom class and has just acquired The 'Hatred' feat. The problem is that when I use HATRED - usually 2 seconds before going to battle - the buff expires within seconds. So it expires upon reaching my - good-natured *snarls* enemies - of after striking the first one.

This feat - or the lenght of it - is completely useless in my eyes. I don't know what to think about it, perhaps it's a bug?

The idea of the feat is very nice, but the duration of it, renders it useless. In battle I don't even bother putting it on as It causes more harm then good (enemies getting lots of opportunity attacks on me) taking into consideration the lenght of the weapon enhancement.

Why are these all just coming on now.

Ill sort it with v2.

*curses*

Maybe because not too many players on the server have chosen BN custom as their second class and therefore haven't had the chance to test it. As far as I know, I'm the only BN. I've not seen any other BNs since I started. Hm *ponders*. So you are saying that It may be a bug or a mistake, Avalyn?

[Avalyn]

This isnt a mistake. Ive checked the script, everything is fine, how many levels of Black Numenorean do you have exactly? Hatred lasts for 2 rounds and 1 more round for every 3 levels of Black Numenorean.

[Nine Inch Nail]

Level 3 of BN. Ah So it supposed to be like that then. Hm disspointing as the feat is useless. Check my post above why. It takes in most cases 1 / sometimes 2 combat rounds to get to your enemy and if you use it in battle - it means more loss than gain.

...post deleted. :)

Really? Hm, that's strange. I don't know what to say it expires very quickly and If my character is at 3rd lvl of BN - it means that I have at least 12 seconds of Hatred. Can we go online and test it? Or can you test it?

And one question could Hatred be more of inner ability (persistent but with lowered stats)? I guess you are not going to like the idea of changing *shrugs*. I'm just asking. Wouldn't it fit better with JRR's concept of evil men?

[Avalyn]

hmm, after looking at the barbarians rage....

Hatred is going to be changed to 2 rounds + str modifier.

Ignore the previous post by me :)

*gives Avalyn a handful of acids in thankfulness*

Want one?
*smirks*

Hm one more question.

Can every player deciding to become BN be granted
The Sword of Kaosplaya and The Noob Brotherhood (finesse weapons thread) at first lvl of the class?

*grins* Ignore this one.

[Avalyn]

Yes, on the condition that both weapons are -5 damage, - 5 attack bonus. And when wielded, the cursed weapons weld themselves to the players hand so they cannot be removed. :)
