So I have another Strain question... Under soul drinker

[quote]"after you have utterly demolished a fellow Xenos in a duel of honor and their body lies broken at your feet, you may call "Inflict Annihilation to Xenos 1, Inflict Annihilation to Xenos 2, Inflict Annihilation to Xenos 3.""
[/quote]

So, what exactly constitutes a duel of honor? The challenge doesn't really sound like it since that's basically a crazed melee. Are we talking agreed upon both people in their right minds duel? So not walking by a dead Xenos randomly and annihilating him. Does the Xenos have to be dead? or is this essentially the call for delivering the beheading and can be done to someone who is essentially battered and broken on their knees in front of you. Or is this separate from the beheading and you're just sucking out their power?

Mechanically speaking, if you have the ability to deliver a 3 count deathstrike, you have the ability to deliver the Inflict Annihilation. It will only stick to Xenos as it is a Bane effect.

If you're "doing it right," this should only happen after a 1 on 1 Challenge has occurred, or after the grand melee that is possible but discouraged. That said, nothing is stopping you from finding your buddy on the field and eating his brain when nobody's is watching.

Well. Nothing you know about, anyway... :D

Hmm, any chance we could add a trait/skill called "Tastes Terrible"? It doesn't keep people from eating you. But they have to make a horrible face the entire time they are snacking on you

Question: does a pyrokinetic firebug have the ability to increase the pyrokinetic's fire damage with the Pyromania skill?

Also, A Strain 117 Cold Lord is just terrifying........ FEEDING FRENZY!!!

The way the skill is currently worded: yes.

Pyromania: "This skill does not add damage to uncalled damage by fire"
Emberstorm: "throw up to nine packets for '1 Damage by Fire'"

Does "1 Damage by Fire" Count as uncalled damage, since it is only 1, or called damage since... you would call the damage?

Having 9 packets of 2 Damage by Fire would be pretty sweet :D
