Rangers in for a new treat, others to follow?

Post by galiere »

After a long, deep sleep, the ranger guild has woken up and gained an edge as far as party activities are concerned. They now have access to a new combat skill: evasive combat methods.

The skill is a by-product of a change in the combat engine of Icesus: it is now easy to adjust how likely it is for a combatant to attack a particular opponent in combat. Previously this was handled in a semi-random manner. Evasive combat methods is the first feature to take advantage of this modification and in essence it forces a ranger's opponents to attack someone else instead of the ranger, assuming the ranger has at least one fighting companion in the front row of a party and a skill check is successful.

To train the skill, advance a level in either the candidates, scouts, lords or protectors. If you have already maxed out the guild your only option is to reincarnate. Normal Icesus reincarnation taxes apply.
