As ye' know I be a pirate (ex)

However, I have come to the conclusion the voodoo ability, Avenge was made to tackle against Pirates.

I, myself do not mind however find it interesting; If so I would like to know.

Is this true?

What do you think?

I think that may have been the intention, but I don't really think that's the main effect. If you are a big trader, would you really want to give a pirate the option to use the avenge ability? That's what's gonna happen if you retaliate with voodoo...

I think it wasn't just for pirates. I think it was for anyone who cast against you. That doesn't 100% mean pirate. It could mean, Privateer. ;)

Of course some merchants cast voodoo, just not a lot.

Aye, that be truth but normally a pirate/Privateer starts a conflict - Normally with 3 Fugitive of Justice/ 2 Hostile Natives of which the Merchant can respond into Confuse and silence him for the next 24 hours.

Tested with Pulpop, he used 5 Serenity and 6 Purify ( I think ) and failed to remove Confuse.

No its not, at first i was thinking the same until there was avage on tax. I think avange on tax was made vs pirate but, it works a lot better vs a merchant and my god that was so op.

I think Avenge was designed to counter the players who aggressively attacked with voodoo and had huge voodoo stashes. Whether they be privateers or pirates. It gave the user a good counter without them needing to cast a lot of voodoo.
