Give Fedhas Recall?


Although the central place for design discussion is ##crawl-dev on freenode, some may find it helpful to discuss requests and suggestions here first.

Give Fedhas Recall?

So I've been messing around with Fedhas lately and I noticed that she/he doesn't give recall like Hep and Yred. Any chance of changing this? It'd be handy to gather my fungi (or get them through a wall of plants).

Being able to airdrop your shrooms would be a pretty serious buff, I think, to an already massively strong god.

I fear that would contrary to the basic design of Fedhas' allies being a pain in the ass to be managed, even in comparison to the already annoying as hell semi-permanent allies.

Re: Give Fedhas Recall?

And here I thought you wanted Fedhas recalled. Wall of plants seems like a valid point to me, though. Want to give mushrooms wild step or woodland stride or however it's called? Maybe give them 100% slowing instead of 50% while they do it.

Re: Give Fedhas Recall?

You could give Fedhas recall that only works when there are no monsters in LoS if concerned that recalling while there are would be too powerful. (It'd only recall Mushrooms (and maybe spores); since Ballistomycetes and Oklobs can't move)...and mushrooms not recalling while things are in LoS fits with Mushroom's existing mechanics (not moving when monsters in LoS).

Re: Give Fedhas Recall?

Good point about the airdrop. I'm not asking to make Fedhas more powerful. Just less of a pain...

Oh, and I tested Recalling Okolbs in WizMode. Alas, that doesn't seem to work.

Stationary things cannot be moved by any means, that's intentional. There is ONE exception...Xom can move them with his "Rearrange the Pieces" ability...but that's not exactly able to be abused, because it's Xom.

Re: Give Fedhas Recall?

Maybe make it so Fedhas recall only recalls one shroom per 10 aut, that wouldn't be too powerful and would solve the problem of not knowing which floor you lost your shrooms on.
