AM's energy shield

i just wondered is anyone could explain hoe this energy shield is used if its brought into the game. i think its a good idea, BUT i think it needs to be incorperated into a single artifact to turn it on/of. for example, an adren master may want to ghost to get out of a tight spot orget some hp back, or may wan to preserve adren. i agree it will be very usefull in many situations but just think that this would make it more user firendly

I don't really see how it could work as an artifact. It would have to drain at least one adrenaline a second. The rule is that certain abilities do not work if an artifact is running e.g. AdrenalDrip and EnergyLeech. So who would ever have this artifact switched on since it kills leech and drip for no benefit? And no, I wouldn't make it an exception from the slow drain or stopping leech etc as that is core to artifacts.

And if you are going to wait for an emergency to switch it on, then the globe would work better as, for say 100 adrenaline you would be invincible for a while, whereas 2 hits would wipe out that much adrenaline in a second.

So I think it has to be an ability that kicks in at the last second to save your life. Now I understand that will prevent deliberate suicides to regain health, but to be honest I regard that as an exploit. AMs in particular should not be be able to suicide to regain health.

yeah good points and thanks for reply. i gues if it only kicks in when you have 10hp left itl be good.

Energy shield? You mean like some kind of sphere that makes you invincible as you are about to die? I honestly don't think so. The last thing DruidsRPG needs is another artifact for the AM.

An ability, not an artifact
