Not only does it look like a whine, but it smells, tastes and feels like a whine, you damn whiner.
For the love of god, people, how much more complaining are you going to do? Nightgaunts:
Out of the literally dozens of nightgaunts I've conjured, only two have worked successfully, and both times the target got away anyway.
"Oh, look, I can't play my by-the-book shit anymore because I know have to be cautious when I'm in an area, not just type 'where' every 5 seconds.' Guess what, there's no MUD rule that says all attacks must be in one area. If that were the case, my rot and impale should wear off when I leave the area of a shaman.
1. Before whining your snivelling little selves to death, play one, and see how easy they are.
Thank you, and GOOD NIGHT.
a. Can only be conjured OUTSIDE at NIGHT.
b. Have to be bound within a pretty close distance of the target. Maybe not the same area, but damn close.
c. Once it's bound, it's quite a while before you get another. I won't say how long because they already suck enough without you knowing more than you need to.
d. Can't be bound if 'target doesn't have enough life energy', which is bullshit. They can attack you, they can get in their form or whatever and hunt you, but the gaunt still can't get them for some ungodly reason.
e. Are easily killed by most people now.
f. You can't go into enclosed areas to finish the job, as gaunts won't go there anymore.
and D. Keep up this crap, and conjurers will become about as fun as druids. Woohoo.
