Hey Townies,
This patch ends Season 2 of Ranked, takes us into the off-season and has a TON of balance updates to the game. The goal of this balance patch is to address the power of Town, while doing updates, tweaks, and reworks to various roles.
Ranked Updates
• New Ranked Role list which uses the new Common buckets. Let us know what you think of this new list!
New Common Town and Common Coven Rolebuckets
• Common Town is a Role bucket that contains all Town except Town Power roles.
• Common Coven is a Role bucket that contains all Coven except Coven Power and Coven Killing roles.
Role Reworks
• Trickster - Place Magic Mirrors and absorb attacks, and Unleash them to other players at will. Trickster may not place another Magic Mirror until they Unleash the absorbed attack to another player. Taunt keyword replaced with Magic Mirror.
• Socialite - During the night you may throw a party at another player's house. Any visitors not on the guest list will be rejected from entering causing their ability to fail. Players rejected will be added to the guest list for future parties. During the day you may add a player to your guest list, allowing them to attend future parties.
• Coven Leader - During the night, pick another member of the Coven to retrain. You will be able to select a new role for them to become. This has 2 Uses. Coven Killing and Coven Power roles can become any coven role, Coven Utility and Coven Deception roles can only become other Coven Utility and Coven Deception roles. You can self-retrain You cannot retrain someone into a role that has already been on the team. The following day, the targeted Coven member will be able to accept or decline being retrained, they will instantly change roles if they accept.
• Dreamweaver - Insanity renamed to Insomnia. If a town member doesn't visit you you will become Insomniac instead. Insomniac players may not use any day or night abilities but does not affect voting. Players affected by Insomnia will be cured if the Dreamweaver dies.
Role Changes
• Baker no longer dies of Starvation. Instead they transform if all living players have Bread if there's less than 3 players alive.
