When I had a char that could either choose to headbutt or stun, I went for headbutt, since headbutt baits tend to flee a lot to risk wasting mana in the air. Backlash seems far more likely at lower mind (even with 25 mind diff) whereas at higher minds it seems to be quite negligible even with just a 10 mind diff. Headbutts, when they fail, they fail without rhyme or reason. Surges are annoying, but never in a pk battle have enough surges happened to win me a fight, tho a lot of times there were plenty of wfw's to lose me the fight. Wuss

Well lets see....... People complain bash is too powerful when they have no Str People complain Headbutt is too powerful when they have no Con People complain Stun is too powerful when they have no Mind Seems rather silly to be always complaining about it when those dong teh complaining are almost always those that are VERY vulnerable to whichever special they are complaining about. Having that said though I personally think that WFW stuns do last a little bit too much on the long side, a length somewhere in the 2 -31/2 round range probably about as long as they should last in any Pkill fight.

Actually, I brought stun up this time and have the mind to wfw and the con to headbutt. I'm after balance, not after making my character better. Anyway, I already said what I feel should fix the imbalance in an earlier post. Wfw's shouldn't last longer than a staggering headbutt, should cost less, not be tumbled so easy if at all and shouldn't surge. Hmm, pretty much how it used to be.. As if it's gonna change back. -flop-
