Nerfing SR: a Discussion

[MomoBerry]

imo puritans should be unrevivable by any means. 1 life only, use it well

Also I dislike people treating it like free points and getting salty in dead chat / toxic towards players who don't bother looking for the trait when cloning them

I guess borging is ok as a way to get more bodies to the roboticist

I would prefer this, yeah. Just flat out one life, don't fuck up.

I don't think the puritan issues are SR's fault at all, and directly puritans fault for allowing it.

what if puritan removal

but i like flooding cloning in blood and limbs

[KikiMofo]

Personally I prefer to only have two ways back from death. Cloning and Borging.

I find sr exciting and it allows fun experiments. If a puritan wants to be not revived because of their character or whatever they can say it on ooc to not be revived and at classic it doesnt really matter

[Lord_earthfire]

I'm somewhat dissatisfied with the change honestly. Because the way i see it, puritan moved away from being a cloner drawback to the role of "one life only". And i already saw people on discord not even wanting borging as an alternative

This leaves design space.

I would we introduce the perk "cloner incompatibility" as a +1, affecting monkey cloning and normal cloning with the effect we know. Also, increase the amount of SR needed for a successful revival to like 20, 1 for critters and mobs only.

And remove the bottle of omnizine from the RD office.

Make it plus zero, it can be a curveball trait to keep doctors on their toes without being a power gaming trait negated by a competent medbay. Everyone’s happy!

Old puritan was a +2 and still had monkey cloning. That's why i choosen +1. But i wouldn't mind it as a +0.

Then again, as a +0 it would never see use on classic. Most +1 traits are not too debilitating anyway.
