overpower (making ip useful)

Post by overtyped »

I've been thinking of a way to make ip actually good, because at the start of a fight everyone just stacks ip, but having lots of ip doesnt give much of an advantage.
So what about a move that utilizes it?
melee attack: overpower: 2+2 15cd striking+backhanded+oppressive (deals no damage)
Early world exploit: Put your hearthfire inside a cave, then hold shift to position a claim right in front of a cave. After 8 hours the claim will be unbreakable. Since your hearthfire is inside the cave, you can still get back inside, and leave, but nobody will be able to enter, effectively making you unraidable for the first 3-7 days. Enjoy

shh, don't let jorb know. I like it, because i can run a 5 card build, without needing to use knock teeth out or punch, because it's cd is short.
also: quick dodge is only a 20 cd, so its not like you can't defend against this move, plus it costs alot of ip.

Actually, I like this idea.

Though I feel it would be too good if it was all defenses- would easily become the most used move

I would rather they made ip a meaningful cost by changing how you gain it so that you couldn't coin stack at the start of a fight to make it meaningless.
