Gubat Banwa First Edition (1.41)


Hey all! Just a quick fix of typos and clarifications. Jump in:

GUBAT BANWA 1.41

  • Made it so that Honor is flat numbers now.
  • Clarified that only Bravery, Posture, Faith and Resilience are Prowesses, and defined HP, Speed, and Jump as Traits (as they are part of your Discipline’s Traits).
    • HP, Speed, and Jump are very tricky to build and balance around and often leads to a surplus of trap options regarding the balance of enemies. Too low of a Speed in exchange for damage also often really contributes to horrible game feel, especially with multiple players. Making HP raisable also devalues Defense stats often, which is the reason for the change.
  • Clarified that True Attacks can also not be Guarded. 
  • Clarified Elemental Interactions, included that some interactions cancel out, meaning they don’t suffer either status effects. 
  • Clarified how Wandering Dog Hero works with Companions.

Spend 1 Beat: you and all allies gain +1 Beat, Haste, +1 to all Prowesses, Overwhelming Attacks and Defenses, Hit and Parry on 5+, and Heal 1 every start of riff for the rest of Violence. However, if you are still Defeated after this, you lose an extra 1 Honor.
  • Baril Witch: Clarified that you get to choose what you Gun when you first take on the Baril Witch discipline. Also made it so you can spend Guncharges twice per Riff and you can Rush 1 when you do. 
  • Baril Witch: Kalabit Diablo now does the following: Spend 1 Beat: attack up to 2 fighters in path 3 with Faith.
  • Baril Witch: Witch Utters Bullets wording is fixed.

  • Javelin: Pinning Spears now has the following text: When the Javelin attacks from vantage, inflict Slow. If they’re already Slow, inflict Bleed. The Javelin gains Evade against attacks from enemies that are slowed or bleeding.
