I like the idea of that but would like to see a percentage of the 10% lost gold sent to the caster

i like the idea. especially after edited:) it will be beneficial to use against big targets who will carry a lot of golds at hand. and for fast clear inactives(dont know if its worth to do) but i have doubts about can not be seen parts.

The card is already powerful enough and could reward him greatly, if not noticed.

However, a 3-6% return could be utilized; all is to be discussed.

After a full 5 hour, the total money taken from the target would be just over 40%

Which is very high.

3 Booty master
At most, would be 21%, this is almost doubled.

Clearly this is just another one of Avery's hurt only merchants voodoo.

Because, merchants carry the most gold in hand.

Cast this 5 hours before update, and right before update, cast Tax, cast HNs, FoJ, that guy would have his ships disappear the next day.

Oh yes, but you have to remember it can only be cast once within a day ( 24 hours ) which gives either side to have a chance to log on during that time. I am sure the guild would notice about your sudden drop of gold coins, too.

I had not honestly thought of this, perhaps make a counter or Avenge ability? If the player has cast this against you in the last 3 days, he will lose double the amount. But that being said, can be used against Merchants, too. Which this card can be used against Pirates - Effectively.

I believe this is the first card that effects the 'purse' of a player, no?

Or just drop your old every top of the hour and go back to normal.


And 10% every hour for 4 hours is not 40%


1000-100 =
900 - 90 =
810 - 81 =
729 - 72.9 =
656.1

That is 35% taken!

Avery made it 5 hours, did you not see?

If it's just 2 hours, it would be better. But we don't need anymore voodoo that hurt people as legendary, there is already plenty of them that is accepted.

For a period of 5 hours, you want it to be changed to every 2 hours? :D
