[CF-Devel] DB's wish list

[Henric Karlsson]

I've now played some with Gnarg, and have some thoughts.

The special prayers you get from Gnarg, smallpox and poison fog are
really quite useless, you get them at medium level (150 grace), and
when you finally get 150 grace you cant really kill anything and
expect to get any xp for it with those prayers. I sugest to make them
low level (50 grace), then you might still appreciate the xp you get
from killing a gnoll. The only spell I used to gain wisdom xp now was
cause minor/serious/critical wounds and avatar.

Once you get to (hmm or should I say if you get to.. ) higher levels
you can actually get quite good cult monsters. (like dread knights) So
Gnarg is not all bad.

Another thought, since Gnarg is "Patron of Assassins" he should
probably grant the ability stealth. I know it's not currently used but
anyway.
