I was scrolling through this thread and read most, but not all the posts, and basically I just wanted to say that I didn't want to see voodoo turned into a spell form of cleave by making it target peoples limbs. I'd rather have it remain a very unique spell of some kind, but don't get me wrong I do wish to see it changed.

I don't really care for the scrying idea either, because now instead of having a shaman try to kill you or attack you from far away, you now are granting the shaman the ability to see where people are and then send a gank squad to do the same thing. It doesn't make voodoo less deadly, but more deadly then before.

Shaman: c 'scry' unexpecting victim
Shaman: says "oh they are in teron inn"
Friendly Gate Caster: c 'gate' somewhere in teron
Gank Squad enter gate
Gank Squad kills unexpecting victim

I'd rather just summon kill, it saves the hassle of looking most of the time.

Pesonally if it was to change I'd rather have a spirit pet or adder's suggested rez.

Atlera voodoo killed my GM giant merc with max con and hp. Yeah, it's not Overpowered. :roll:

And voodoo is definitely better. Who would need scry if you have voodoo:

You kill said person with voodoo, person locates corpse, someone goes and loots them.

Tada, no effort. At least with the scry as it's suggested, it'd take effort to get the kill and they'd have a chance to defend themselves/move if you do decide to go to where they are.

Kinda stole the idea from a different game i played with some modifications:
Death's Gate - when a person's health reaches 0, instead of dying, they lose all of their buffs and suffer spirit disorentation as normal but receive health equal to 1 heal. The spell could be on a timer such as 30 minutes. Its a nice second chance buff but without buffs and SD, its likely to be more of a chance to GTFO than to win against the opponent. Thematically the shaman could place a ward/mark or just a spirit to watch over the person that would intercede at the moment the person would died.

similar to that of a soul stone in World of Warcraft....Id rather have the rez to be honest.
