Pox rounds up. So from a stack with 4 pillars, it will destroy 2.

Zanz said no insta-death effects. Should inflict 1-2 poison instead, imo. This would be a very hard nerf for quint, and aether in general, imo. Might be a good idea to lower the multiplier- 1/4 maybe?

I have no idea what you're talking about sir.  ;)

If it's going to inflict poison, it's going to be some amount like 5.

I don't know how hard it's really going to hurt aether. It's only effective at getting around immaterial creatures if you have a large fraction of them. It's just as like to pick that photon as the immaterial dragon. It also hits both sides of the field.

How about inflicting X poison per Y HP? Or simply do X damage- most diseases would kill those who didn't have some resistance to it, and thus were "weaker". And aether, currently, has phase spider (material), immortal (immaterial), and phase dragon (immaterial). (not counting spark since it dies right away)

What I meant was, while it can hit immaterial creatures, it isn't really a problem unless that's all you have on your side of the field. It's meant to hurt people who just play one creature, quint it, then sit there. Do people really like the win condition of golem + quint + massive stall that much?

Poll added on immaterial creatures.

In other words, it's going to nerf CCYB hard X3 (although, who'd use CCYB outside of FG farming?)

On a more serious note, I think it's a brilliant idea, just might need more tweaking with the effect >_>
