Clarity

We will file suggestions here that did not make the cut. Don't expect detailed responses, but the most common reasons are:

  • implementing the suggestion is impractical, or too much work for the gain
  • the suggestion is thematically against our design philosophy
  • the suggestion is too detailed/low-level
    Keep your suggestions broad and focused on RP benefits, please, not detailed suggestions of how to fix everything.

This was already suggested, but as a bump, I get the rationale for a clarity cooldown on consumables, but this also sorta wrecks bards in particular from buffing their party members before a significant fight. This is the only real comprehensive mind protection they can impart on others, and its duration is already pathetic compared to say lessor mind blank. (Note: As it likely should be, being a lower level spell.)

Can we distinguish between cast versions and potion-slugging versions? Gimping the bard's already somewhat limited role in party-support seems an unintended consequence of this update.

No, not going to happen. This functionality is intentional. Regardless, bards are already top tier supports.
