Seems to me like the Summoner (and to a lesser extent the Beastheart) might be a lot of fun for a PC in a duet style game.
I’m curious about opinions/experience on how different classes interact with Duet style play. Like could a Tactician work at all? Is a Censor disadvantaged because generally they’re more focused on locking down a single target? Is the Void Elementalist no longer the best subclass?
Thoughts on giving monsters and ability that drains Heroic Resources?
I’m working on a monster that consumes the minds of humanoids. One of its abilities is a maneuver that costs some malice and requires some set up (target must be restrained) in order to start consuming a players mind. My thought was 1) P < some potency dazed, 2) potency increases each time a creature is targeted, and 3) the creature loses some HR if they are daze.
I’m open to suggestions on other ways to make this work. I’ll admit I haven’t played with daze much so it might just be painful enough on its own. I also might be adding too much set up but I want to telegraph the move.
Thanks!
Edit: consensus is fully that this would not fun at all. I’ll change course and look at modifying the Basilisk’s Petrifying Eye Beams to use instead
