Neat. I wonder if the RT reduction carries into the guild skills outside of the CMAN system too.

[Roll result: 205 (open d100: 78) Penalties: 20]
You hurl yourself at a mountain ogre and connect!
You hammer a mountain ogre to the ground. 5 hits! You jump to your feet.
Roundtime: 4 sec.

Also, per Ixix, this does not improve RTs for creatures - only players.

How tackle was left as 7 seconds for what...15 years? more? is a travesty. Like that should have been such an easy win.

Can anyone confirm or deny that it's working with the guild versions? I'm not able to get online at the moment, but I've always loved things like cheapshots. They've just been...mechanically..y'know..nope.

I already posted a log for you. if it wasn't the guild version I would have had to type CMAN TACKLE.

Holy shit. I never thought I'd see the day Tackle's RT would be reduced. Awesome change.

Damn, too bad there's no reduction for charge.

Damn, too bad there's no reduction for charge.

Yeah these are all "setups" or utility things. knock downs, stancing, RT inducers, ebp penalty, etc. They did say they'd like to look at the CML last some more, and I hope they do. The CML "attacks" like charge and such need some combination of cman point reduction, or stamina cost reduction. It's just hard to spread the points around to justify spending enough ranks to make those things useful, for most people, and then they cost like 1/4 of your stamina pool for using it one time. Stamina is a lot different then mana, but it's still just ridiculously annoying when you try an active cman, get a bad roll and you're just like welp...guess i'll try again in 2 minutes.

Yeah, I mean charge can do some damage but the point is still basically knockdown + RT. The stamina costs are pretty expensive, but it's really that 7 sec rt for maybe knocking something down that is the prohibitive part.
